Addi First Haircut

This is one of my favorite pictures of Addi...she looks so cute

This picture is Addi saying I dont want to take ANOTHER picture Mom!!

Before... it was getting long I was hoping if I trimmed it that it would look fuller and thicker
After...really not much of a change but have noticed it does not get as tangled

Addi had her first haircut last weekend. I was not sure how she would do but she ended up doing really good. All we had to do was give her a sucker and she was good to go.

The Aquarium and 16 Weeks!!!

We decided to take Addi to an aquarium this past weekend and she loved it. I really liked it too. I have never been to one that I can remember so it was pretty interesting. They had sting rays that were in a tank and you could pet them. It was so crazy these things wanted to be petted so they would come up to you and get about half way out of the water until you paid attention to them. They had a lobster that...not kidding...was big as Sherman. For those of you have seen Sherman these days know that is really BIG!! Some of it was just kinda creepy!! Oh and by the way Justin did these pigtails pretty impressive!!!

On Tuesday I was 16 weeks hard to believe! Pretty soon I will have a 16 week old baby! I am feeling really good and everything is going well so far. I am pretty sure I will be a hot sweaty mess by the time August comes!

nice relaxing weekend

We had a nice relaxing weekend at home. Justin was off on Friday and Saturday. We did some shopping on Friday but did not come up with much it was sooo cold!!! It was in the 30's and then today it was almost 80. I'll take the weather today! Addi Aunt JJ and I all went to feed the ducks today. Addi was so excited but there was bread everywhere guess everyone had the same idea oh-well. See all the bread!

I had my doctors appointment this week and everything looks good! Next time we will be able to see if it is a boy or a girl. Justin and I are considering not finding out but not sure guess we have 3 1/2 weeks to figure it out!

BIG NEWS

We have some big news. Addi is going to be a big sister! We are so excited I am 14 weeks today. I am feeling much better now it was a little harder this time than it was with Addi. I had more morning sickness (not sure why it is called morning sickness when it lasts all freakin day) But that is over now and I am not as tired. I have gained 3 lbs so far but it seems like my stomach is so much bigger this time.

We waited a little while to tell everyone (except family) because...
when I stopped breast feeding Addi I had a lump in my left breast and it was a little sore so I decided that I should go to the doctor and he sent me for a mammogram. It came back fine and I didn't really think that much about it.

When I first found out I was pregnant the same place was really sore. I couldn't really lay on that side so I mentioned it again to my doctor. This time he sent me for a ultrasound of the area. I was really not that worried since the mammogram came back fine.

So we went for the ultrasound and the spot I was talking about came ended up being fine. The lady said the worst case would be that I would need to come back for a biopsy. So when she found two other places the doctor came in and said she wanted to do a biopsy. GRRR. it was so frustrating and I was scared. So a week later we Justin and I went back and had the biopsy done. The first one was just a cyst and they drained the fluid and it was fine. The second one they took a biopsy of and sent it off. The worst part was that I could not lift Addi for a couple of days it is hard to not be able to lift your baby!!

The next week the results came back and everything was ok it was just a cyst that is noncancerous and doesn't ever turn cancerous.

So when that was all over we were able to focus on being pregnant and we are so excited!!

My Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and I had a good day. I was ready to come home from work and see Justin and Addi. Justin got me a kindle!! I am so excited about it. It is so easy to use and I can't wait to use it more. Justin and I started dating 7 years ago on my birthday. We have had so many changes in seven years!!! Thanks for everyone who remembered me on my birthday!

On Sunday J had to work so my mom came over to spend some time with me. She made me this beautiful flower arrangement. I put it on my nightstand it is beautiful and it smells so good. Star gazers are my favorites! I had a good birthday!

Fire station

The weekend before last J had to work Friday and Sunday which is the worst tour he has. So Addi and I decided to take a trip to the fire station to see him. I told her the day before we were going and she was so excited if you tell her that Dada is at work she says Dada firetrucks. So we headed to the station. It was a nice trip Justin was on the engine (which does not have a lot of calls) so we got to see him for a couple of hours and eat lunch together. Addi was so excited but she was afraid of the firetrucks for awhile. It made a good Sunday.

SNOW DAYS!!!!

Well we are enjoying ANOTHER snow day. Last week was a little much for me but I went to work two days this week and was ready for another break haha! I think poor Addi went a little crazy. This is how I found her on Friday morning. She was so pleased with herself THEN Friday night she did the same thing except she peed all over her bed. That is fun when you are ready to go to bed!

GOOD NEWS Justin passed his paramedic test!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so proud of him he has worked really hard!
