Yes its been months since I blogged, but I don't think anyone reads this so no big deal!!
Well I am now 36 weeks pregnant and I'm scheduled for a c-section on Oct. 6. The doctor suggested it because of the size that Kurtis was and this one seems to be headed in the same direction. It's nice to know the exact day but I'm not looking forward to the surgery. I need to keep my mind on the prize for going through the surgery... My Baby Girl! Yes that's right a girl. I am so excited and can't wait to dress her up in all the cute outfits that were given to us.
Kurtis is VERY excited about being a big brother, he just can'twait! He has started school again and it has taken a bit to get back in the groove of things. He has the same teacher as last year which is great he really liked her. She is so understanding about the baby coming cause she just had one herself.

It's Offical
Well, I went for that level two ultrasound and they determined my due date...Oct. 12! That means that I am 17 weeks today. Almost to the half way mark,that is hard for me to believe. The doctor said that the baby is off to a good start and I will go back for another u/s May 24th. I'm hoping to find out what it is then. :) I've been feeling less tired ,but still have my emotional cave ins. I'm learning to be more aware of them and work through them. I just get so overwhelmed with it all!!
In other news, Kurt and I are looking forward to the end of school. He has done so well with this online school that we will do it again next year. His teacher recommended him for the gifted language arts program for 3rd grade. I decided to hold off on that for next year because I won't have the time to give him any extra help it may require. If he does well again next year,then maybe in 4th grade. We will see!
Ed's job is going well. He is hoping to get a good raise in June. He will be there a year already.
We have gone down to one car for now. It hasn't been to bad so far. Scheduling appointments has been a bit hairy, but I just need to get a better handle on Ed's schedule in order to make it work better! There have been a few times where Kurt has wanted to go somewhere and we couldn't but it's a good learning experience for him. Speaking of learning experiences, Kurt had a big one just the other night. HE made the choice to stay home with Mom instead of going bowling with his dad. His plan was to stay outside and play with his cousins for most of the time. However ,the cousins were only home for about an hour and he was left with just me. Well ,he started to cry that he wanted to go bowling with Dad. It was way to late at that point. I explained to him that he had made his choice and he was gonna have to live with it. It took him awhile to settle down. It so hard as a Mom to have to watch your child go through a difficult learning experience. Deep down inside I knew it was good for him ,but it was certainly hard on his Momma.
Ever since I was a young mom I knew I needed to teach him how to make good choices. That is what life is about. Some choices are BIG and some very insignificant. We make choices all day long and I hope and pray that I am teaching him how to make good Godly choices whether big or small.
Well enough for now....until next time...

Almost one year
Ok, so I'm not good at blogging...that is pretty obvious. However, I have alot to write about these days.
In February I turned 40 and wondered what this new decade would be like. Little did I know what was gonna come my way. In March, I found out that I was Pregnant! Yes, you read that write PREGNANT! I could not believe it!!! Ed and I had a hard time getting pregnant with Kurtis so we never expected this. I was in shock for quite awhile...maybe even denial; but it has finally sunk in! Seeing that little body on the ultrasound has a way of doing that.
I have been feeling pretty good but can't get over how tired I have been. No morning sickness just nauseated sometimes in the evening. Having a baby at 40 is alot different than at 30...lol.. ya, about ten years! :) The doctors are gonna drive me crazy with all the tests they want me to have. This week they called and want me to have a scan that will give them a closer look at the baby because there was a 2 to 3 week difference in my due date. That is what the nurse said at least; but somehow I don't think they are telling me the whole truth. I will be questioning the office when they call to schedule.
Today, I was an emotional wreck. This was the first time I was so bad. I just had so many thoughts running thru my head and just cried for awhile. My poor boys didn't know what to do or think. It was just something I had to work thru on my own. So now, I have a headache that is just awful. Why is it that when I cry I always get a headache??? But after a nap this afternoon and an encouraging phone call from a dear friend I am emotionally feeling better!! I'm so thankful that God knows just what we need and when!
Well, I hope to do better at this blogging thing so I have a record of this new adventure that God has me on! Until next time...
