I think. It could be 16, I’m not entirely sure ;-)

I’m feeling good, just really tired. Definitely more so than the first time around, although caring for a toddler and being pregnant may have something to do with that. I didn’t get sick in the first trimester (never did with Ben either), I’m very thankful. I would get a little queasy if I waited too long to eat though.
Still working out and doing classes at the Y, it feels really good to move and do weights. I feel much bigger than I look, I’ve gained 5lbs so far. It’s still a cute little belly and not gigantic yet. It’s weird kind of knowing what comes next. Right now I can sit up in bed and tie my shoes, but in the back of my mind I know what’s coming ;-)
Dealing with some crazy acne. It has cleared up a little, but some weeks I have 13 year old girl skin, haha.
Looking forward to hearing the heartbeat again at my appointment this week. Then the big ultrasound in a few weeks! I can’t believe how fast this is going. In a month it’ll be half over, crazy!
Ben’s favorite stuffed animals are Bear and Moose. He loves them bunches, chews on them and drags them around. They were SO disgusting and wouldn’t even come clean after going through the washer. There was just a lingering smell I couldn’t get out. So it was time to buy new ones from amazon. They arrived this week, but before we did the switch I wanted side by side shots. They’re not even the same color!


He definitely noticed the difference when he saw them.

I just told him it was Clean Bear and Moose, that seemed to do the trick.

Apparently they passed inspection!

Sometimes when Colby is sleeping, Jack will trot over and start grooming him. You think it’s all sweet and brotherly love like, until it turns ugly. Kitty chewing, wrestling and chasing ensues. It usually ends with Jack whining like a baby because Colby tackled him. Silly kitties :)





This is a Keurig after Andy’s gotten to it.

Andy found one at the dump and brought it home to see what was wrong with it. Turns out the hoses inside leak and it’s really not worth fixing. While he had the thing taken apart he tried to figure out how it worked and came to the conclusion that it’s incredibly complicated for being a machine that just heats water.
Andy let Ben play with parts from an old laptop. He loved ripping little pieces off and trying to stuff them back in other holes. Future engineer? Who knows, but he certainly had fun “fixing” it.
