Updates

1. We are in Seattle right now. Chris went hunting with his dad and brother, Steven. They didn't get anything but it was a good time. I'm so glad they got to spend time together.

2. We are going to Joesph and the Amazing Techno-color Dreamcoat tonight! Mom and Mike are going with us! (Bee is going to his first hockey game with Nicci!! He's excited...I can tell!)

3. We had some pretty scary days here in the past two weeks. My platelet levels dropped BIG time. (33k to 14k). The doctors didn't want me to travel to Seattle but we worked things out. I had to take prednosine (YUCK!) and get my labs draw here. I have a blood doctor appointment the Monday we get back. And an ultrasound to check baby's blood flow on Wednesday. I have 500k platelets now, which is AWESOME! We aren't out in the clearing yet. I have to taper off the meds and that's what was bad before.

4. I'm still puking but I have had 2 whole days where I didn't throw up once!!

5. Bee is learning all kinds of new things from his cousin Clayton! Jumping with both feet and important stuff like that! It's so cute to watch them together.

6.We are leaving here Sunday and heading to Portland to see V. Then off to South Dakota to see my Grandparents! I can't wait to see them. And maybe if we drive through Casper at the right time, we'll see my uncles.

Welp I think that's about it for updates! Hopefully we'll get some pictures for when I get home.

She didn't ask me to do this, she's wayyy awesome like that.

Bee's brother!

Here are some pictures of my uterus. I still think it's weird that we share pictures of our female parts, only when we are pregnant! :)

We had an ultrasound on Thursday. I measured exactly right...15 weeks. That makes my due date March 22, 2010 for sure.

We thought with the ultrasound from Alaska, that there could have been twins. But that's not the case...there is one healthy boy in my tummy.

We are so very excited about our little boy. I get to pick the first name this time. I have a few favorites but I'm not yet for sure. I might pull a Melissa and keep it a secret until the baby is born.

Chris is already planning hunts and fishing trips for when the boys are old enough.

I'm going to have to be induced with this baby too. They want to have platelets and blood ready for us. The chances that this baby will have low platelets like Bee did, is quite a bit higher. We will probably spend some time in the NICU. (Newborn Intensive Care Unit) I'm kinda bummed about this BUT I would rather have a healthy baby! Besides I have 25 weeks to be okay with it.

What we are doing now..

We made it to Alamogordo. We stayed in a hotel for 10 days and found an apartment. It's a cheap apartment but we are looking into buying a house so hopefully, we won't be here long.
The first week we were here the thunderstorms were awesome. Chris tried to get some pictures but only one came out.
We then moved into here. Chris went golfing and the thunderstorm started. I was just hanging out with Bee. All of a sudden, our roof started leaking...like HUGE!!!
I had to empty out a big tubberware bin to hold the water...a pot wouldn't have done it!
So we called our landlord and went a our friends' hotel. (They had a pool!)
They fixed the roof the next day but it was still an adventure!

This is Bee saying, "NO!" This is him rolling his eyes at his mom.

This is a HUGE bonfire that Alamogordo had for Homecoming. Notice the telephone poles and lights. This was HUGE! We stopped to take a picture and could feel the heat this far away. Those people close must have been melting!

This is Bee, finally able to run around with no pants and dance to music. Hotel rooms just don't cut it! :)

This is the one picture that showed up. I was going to crop it but forgot. You get the picture anyway!

While still traveling..

So I got my bum in gear this morning and pulled pictures from the trip to blog about. So here we go...
These are 12 pumpkins I made for a swap. I didn't get my stuff together in time to actually trade with my group but I finished them. I am swapping with a few girls on the side if anyone is interested.
This is at Macho Lake in Canada. It's suppose to be one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. It was beautiful to us because we all had to potty and get out and walk. We walked along the beach and threw rocks for a good hour. At this point, I believe we had been traveling three days straight.
I had to do a double take on Bee. He is wearing a hat! :)

Here's another picture. The lake has some sort of chemical in it that makes it teal. It really is quite pretty.

Here's Hooch doing his nose thing!

This was way long ago but I had to post it cuz well, you just gotta! :)

NEWS!!

So I finally get to add one of these to my blog!!!

We are prego!

It's probably 99% of the reason I haven't been posting. I've been puking my brains out.

My due date is March 22, 2010.

I had an ultrasound at 7.5 weeks and saw a heartbeat. I have to have another ultrasound when we get to New Mexico to double check.

I have already lost 19 lbs in the 7 weeks I've been barfing.

I'm almost 12 weeks.

We are soooooo excited!!!

So excuse me if I'm not on here cuz I'm hanging around our toliet. I hope it settles down soon but with Bee..I was still throwing up until 7.5 months.

Does anyone have any Tums?

More BLOCKS!!!

Aren't they just awesome!!??! I can't wait to start putting them all together!

We are still in Seattle. The well pump went out at Chris' parents house so we have been helping with that.

Bee and I along with Jane and Nicci went to Seattle on Monday. We got to Pike's Place and it was seriously crowded!! Come to find out, it was 100th birthday and they were handing out free cake! Nothing like free food to make people gather! We also took Chris' cousins down there. Aubrie and Tory with their kids. They are soooo fun and we will be playing with them soon. They have a Connor and an Emma, which is our favorite girl name. Coolness!

Mom, Mike and Kassy come home on Saturday night. It will be fun to hear their Dune stories! I wonder if Alex killed a jellyfish for me.

Welp I'm off to help with the living room!

What are you guys up to these days?

Hanging out in Marysville

We have done a lot of hanging out in marysville lately. It's been wonderful!!!

Clayton, our nephew, is in love with Bee. They run around the W's house, screaming and kicking the balls! So funny....for the first 10 minutes!

The boys are suppose to go out crabbing out today but the boat isn't working yet. Hopefully soon.

Mom left for the dunes today! I hope she has sooo much fun! I'll post pictures later!

I'm off to go dig out the camera for you guys!

We're here!

We made to to Seattle Washington!!

Finally!

We had some adventures..

we think we broke the trailer a little bit going over a HUGE frost heeve.

Bee was great but still a two year old that needed to get out and run every few hours.

I am pretty sure my iPhone is laying in the middle of the AlaCan, about 250 out of Whitehorse. If anyone wants it, it's there. I can tell you what tree it's next to!
(We still have to clean out one more spot but it's not looking good!)

we had NO trailer brakes. (This was fun, down hills!)


I think that's about it!

So we are here. I will be blogging with our adventures here every couple days!

How are you guys??
