Happy Birthday My Angel!

Two years ago to this minute I had been in the hospital for 11 hours with contractions. Little did I know my sweet baby Tatiana wouldn't come for another 12 hours by emergency C-section. 8lb and 8oz brought so much into our lives. Weighing in at an impressive 35lbs now this little dark haired, dark eyed beauty is constant joy. I love waking up to her kisses on my face, seeing her face light up when daddy walks through the door from work or to cuddle with my belly talking about her little sister. I am so grateful to Heavenly Father for letting me raise this special and wonderful child. She has enriched and blessed our lives in so many ways. We love you Tatiana! Happy Second Birthday my baby!

Today my happiness cost $3.94...

We made it home from our trip to Portland! It was so much fun but not nearly enough time. We only had two days and we had to split them between my family and George's. So I am sorry to all the people out there I would have love to have seen but had no time! Like Aunt Sissy and Corn. It was so great to see my brother and his family. I always leave wishing we lived much closer like we used to. I could never get sick of him! The drive actually wasn't that bad in that my sister had given Tati about 30 Dora/Barney/Backyardigan videos and she was content to sit there all day and watch them. The weather was nice and the company was better.
But we come home to a CRAZY house. I have laundry up the ying yang. There are piles of baby stuff all around everywhere till I can decide where to stick it. And we are using wet wipes as our current form of toilet paper. OH THE DREADED GROCERY STORE. I just can't make myself go. I also had another ultrasound today which had good and bad news. Bad, being that I still have Placenta Previa and will have to go back in another month to check again. Good, being that I got a 4d ultrasound and got to see this little bums cute face. They changed my due date again to July 29.
I don't think I have ever been this tired before. I am just constantly exhausted. I just had to go out and buy myself a Tiger's blood slushee, a twix bar, and a heath bar to make it through the day. It was a $3.94 well spent. I ate the heath and am saving the twix for when Tati has her next melt down. It is Tati's birthday Wed. and I haven't done a dang thing yet. I haven't even gotten her a present so I really need to get on it!! My baby is turning 2. Okay gotta go now so I can go have a good cry over it.....;)

Drum roll please...

Tati is getting a little sister! We paid to get an ultrasound at fetal fotos today and the legs were wide spread today. It is so interesting to see the difference between Tatiana's ultrasound and this little one. This little one has the biggest lips I have ever seen. Even the tech commented on those choppers. I am a quite curious to see this little face. I feel so much better knowing. It was hard to connect with this baby not knowing what sex it was for me. Buy this point with Tati we knew the sex for months, knew her name and I had most of her clothes for the first year. I also had so much more time to think about all that was to come. These days I don't even have a moment to myself let alone my thoughts. This has made me excited and curious to see how it all works out. Now we just have to agree on a name...

Should I do it?

Some of you may know my OB told me I was going to have an ultrasound after this last appointment. I seemed like it took forever for the appointment to get here. The first thing I asked when he walked in was when can I get it? He said,"Oh another two months". I was in shock!! When I rememinded him he said I could get it after this appointment and he just replied that we should wait but because I was so upset we will only wait one more month. I was SERIOUSLY upset. Here I am 25 weeks and I haven't bought a dang thing for this kid. So, I decided to go to fetal studios next week and buckle and actually pay for one. The thing costs $59. But this test is at Walgreen's for $29.99 and 6 out of 7 reviews were good. I have never heard of an at home test to tell the gender. What should I do.......

I love u Curly sue...

The morning I took these pictures I just couldn't believe how curly Tati's hair was. She woke up with perfect ringlets all over her head. What I would give for that hair....
