I think it was really great for us to see the 4D ultrasound too. By the time we left the appointment, we were both perfectly fine with the idea of having another girl. But then Jason threw me a curve ball... he said that we shouldn't take any steps to never have another child. He wants to leave it open to maybe try for a boy in the future... which means a third child. WOOO!!! Where did that come from??? We've always talked about only having two. But I did agree that we don't need to take any permanent steps at this time, but that obviously it'll depend on our finances and Jason's job in the future. Who would've thought it?
So the ultrasound was almost a month ago and we spent an entire weekend getting the house ready for the new baby. We're all set to go and now it's just the final 3 months of waiting. Sami definitely has some jealousy issues with the baby stuff in the house, but we're hoping that she'll be over it by the time that Josie actually gets here. Oh by the way, baby girl will be named Josie... Jason won on that.
And can you believe it that my little girl is going to be 2-years old in just a matter of weeks. OMG!!! She has definitely been a hand full lately, but I don't know that it's necessarily her or a combination of her being two and me being really pregnant. I have a shorter fuse because I'm sore and tired all the time and I feel horrible because I don't have as much patience with her, but I'm learning to ask Jason to step in more before I get to my boiling point and that seems to help so I can calm down and tell myself that she's only two. I think a lot of it too is that she just doesn't fully understand the whole baby thing. She climbs on me constantly even when I tell her not to and really she likes to smother me a lot... which can actually be sweet except when I don't want to be touched because my body aches so much. So balance is what I'm searching for... maybe I need to start meditating to find my center. Do you believe in that stuff?
So next week I have my glucose test at the doctor for my 28-week check-up. Then starting with my check-up in April I have appointments every 2 weeks. And then before you know it May will be here and I will have weekly appointments and then baby will be here. Again... where did the time go?
