Two Weeks

Two weeks from today and we will know what Baby Moore #2 is going to be...I really don't have strong feelings either way about it...Once I dreamed it was a boy and then last week I dreamed we had an ultrasound and it was a girl...Either way, I am happy. For Gabriel's sake, I guess it had better be a girl...He is set on naming it Liz-uh-buff (aka Elizabeth) and I just don't think that would be a very good name for a boy :)

We had a busy but fun weekend...We had a big cook out with Cedric's family over at mom and dads. It was a ton of fun getting everyone together..All the kiddos loved the pool and the grown ups had a blast chatting, playing basketball, and pitching horseshoes...I will post pics soon, I still haven't downloaded them off my camera.

Sunday afternoon, I headed to Raleigh..We had a team meeting yesterday that began at 8:00 so all of us from this part of the state headed down the night before. It was good to see all my co-workers and we did have some yummy Mexican food for lunch. I really wouldn't have minded this meeting if we had traveled on a weekday night..leaving on Sunday afternoon really ruined my usual Sunday activities (ie. lounging on a float in the pool). I got home about 7:30 last night and man was I glad to be home...worn out though!

Looking forward to the 4th of July festivities this weekend!!!!!

Hump Day

So glad it is Wednesday! I am having an extra busy work week and I am just ready for it to be OVER! This is mom's first week out of school, so Gabriel is now staying with her on Tues/Thursdays and of course he loves it! He is going to be ROTTEN by the end of the summer! We are looking forward to spending a day at the pool with MeMe on Friday! And looking forward to celebrating Fathers' Day this weekend!

I am feeling pretty good right now, no major preggo symptoms, except I am starting to have a hard time getting comfy while sleeping...I am mainly wearing maternity pants, my regular clothes will button, but they are not comfy and it is not a pretty site! I am counting down the days until July 13th when we have the ultrasound to find out what we are having. I don't really feel like I can start getting things ready until I know if it is a boy or girl....My latest project is trying to catch up on Gabriel's picture album...I am up through Christmas in an album and have pictures printed through March. I just cannot seem to stay caught up on this. My plan is to get all caught up through June and then beginning in July, I will print off pics from the current month at the end of the month....Maybe this will help? I know it is going to be even harder when there are 2 kiddos to take pics of!

Some of my recent food cravings:

Frozen blueberries (I can eat a small carton in one day!)
Pimiento cheese sandwiches with dill chips
Pickles, olives, banana peppers!
Green apples and pears

Alright, off to work now, just wanted to squeeze in a quick post b/c it has been awhile!

2ns Ultrasound

I had a 2nd ultrasound done a week ago, it was part of some testing they do called a First Trimester Screening. This is a panel of bloodwork and an ultrasound that they do in the 1st Trimester to screen for things like spina bifida and other neural tube defects. This testing was not available when I was pregant with Gabriel, my how things change in 3 years. It was so neat to get to see the ultrasound. Baby Moore was kicking and punching like CRAZY! Good thing the baby is still so small that I can't feel all this action! I am thinking I have got another wild boy in there but I guess we have a few more weeks before we will know for sure! Two nights ago I dreamed I delivered the baby OUTSIDE at mom and dad's and it was a little boy! The dream gets even weirder, later on in the dream, the baby was a boston terrier puppy and was running around the yard playing with Rocky!




This one is my favorite, you can see the legs stretched out in a FULL KARATE KID KICK!



All in all, things are going pretty well so far with this pregnancy. I am over the nausea and am not feeling quite as tired. Heck, last night I was up past midnight which is VERY late for me, even when I am not pregnant. I am really hoping that I am not going to have the swelling and high blood pressure that I had with Gabriel. I have a little anxiety about having baby number 2, mostly I am just having the same type feelings I had the last go round...Although I was very excited about Gabriel coming along, it is a BIG change and it made me nervous. I remember laying in bed with Cedric saying "it will never be just the two of us anymore"...Now I can hardly remember when it was just the two of us! Now I feel like "it will never just be the three of us" anymore and that makes me sad. I guess I feel like Gabriel has just grown up SO fast and this is going to make him even more grown up because I will be comparing him to a little peanut all the time. Does this make sense to anyone else out there with multiple kids? Its like I can't imagine that I could ever love another child as much as I love him, but I know that I will, I just can't imagine how.

Alright, I am off to the pool for the day, hoping this sunshine hangs around! Have a great weekend all!

A Few More Pics From May

What We've Been Up To!

Playing outside in our new pool when the whether permits!
Gaby loves running around with no clothes on (wonder who he got that from) ???
