Well we went yesterday to find out the sex of the baby. We are having a BOY!! We are very excited for our two of a kind. :) Honestly we did not have a preference either way. We just feel so blessed to be having another baby. Our due date is still sticking for April 3rd. Of course with my c-section I'll go before then. I included two sweet pictures for you to enjoy.
Profile Picture! Boy he looks like Mitchell already.
Sweet feet picture! That is what keeps thumping my bladder.

Slowin' Down
Ok yea so I'm totally slowing down on my post. Our new dial up service takes so long to do just about anything. I guess it's sorta a blessing because it keeps me away from my biggest addiction, the internet. I am reading everyone's blogs. Every time I go to post a comment it locks up and gives me an internet explorer unavailable. So I'm still here and reading, sorry I have not commented. I did manage to get one picture posted in a somewhat timely manner. I'm now 20 weeks pregnant and feeling great. We find out in 1 week what we will be having. Anyone want to take any guesses for a poll???
We will be headed to NC to spend Thanksgiving with Larkin's parents. I'm really enjoying staying home with Mitch. I find myself getting bored here and there. It's an adjustment. I have not stayed home with him 100% in almost 1 1/2 years. I'm sure when the baby comes I'll be finding no down time. Mitch takes such great naps and I try and nap with him but I find myself catching up on computer time and small projects I can not do with a 2 year old. All in all things are going really good. Larkin is gone a lot working which sucks but unfortunately we are doing what we need to right now to make things work.
Mitch about 2 weeks ago. Trying to get Christmas shots.

Kickin'
The other night I was laying on my back in bed and felt this little thud. I was like ok is that what I thought it was. So I layed super still and sure enough little one was kicking way. Larkin was even about to feel it. This one is so still in the womb compared to Mitch. Mitch was a wild man in my stomach. I was so excited and have been glowing ever since. I just love being pregnant and love these feelings. Only 2 more weeks and we find out what we are having. Yea!!!
It felt so good this week to be home. I only worked Monday and Tuesday and have been off the rest of the week. I work this coming Monday and Tuesday and then I'm done completely. Well all except finalizing the "business side." That will take place over the next few months.
I hope all of you have a great weekend. We have some fun things planned so I'm sure I'll post with pictures and updates.

Almost there!
Well I'm almost there. I have almost reached my last day of work. I work tomorrow and then I work next Monday and Tuesday and then I"m done. It feels really weird. Today I went into work and the shop looked so different already. The girl started to rearrange and make things work for her. I'm so happy for her but it just feels weird. I put my heart and life into that place for the past 17 months and it is just crazy that it's almost no longer mine to control or should I say it's no longer going to control me. Ah!!!!!!
Last night Mitch woke up at 230am screaming. Not crying, screaming! It took over an hour to finally get him to an asleep point where I could take him to bed. Nights like that will make me thank the good Lord for being able to sleep in and not go to work. Those sleep in mornings can not come quick enough.

I would have never guessed!
I would have never guessed that selling my business would disturb my life so greatly. I thought ok so I train the new girl, we do all the paper work, and ta da I'm done. Oh gosh no there is so much to do. I was not on the computer at all last week. I decided to go ahead and disconnect my DSL from the shop to save the extra bill money for the next two weeks. The down side is here at our home, in the country, we can only get dial up. I know it's going to be an adjustment. I just jump on and do little by little at a time. It took me a total of 3 combined hours to dowload 144 pictures to snapfish between yesterday and today. Oh crazy!!!
Thank you so much for everyone's comments. Kim and Brandee I'll have to see if I can shoot for the 24th. I'm so excited to find out what we are having. We'll be in NC for Thanksgiving but unfortunaly with having to rush home for our ultrasound it'll be a short and sweet trip. I'm just excited to get out of town for a few days.
Well Mitch is napping and I am pooped. I spent the entire morning scrubbing floors and cleaning house. We have hardwood or vynal (sp) floors throughout our entire house except the bedrooms. That is a lot of floor scrubbing. Don't get me wrong our house it not huge but it's just time consuming. So I'm going to crash for a little while. I promise I'll keep the blogs more updated in the next few days/weeks to come.
Have a great weekend!!
