Baby #3 is due Oct. 9th!
Cousin Dallin's birthday and a day after our anniversary. I still can't believe Luke is going to be a BIG brother!
We are beyond excited at this house. Can you imagine what a great 'little helper boss' I'm going to have this time around? Sweet Mylie.
Mylie has been begging for a baby for months. I loved seeing both Mylie and Luke with cousin Owen this summer and I knew they both would be cute with a new little babe.
I couldn't wait to share the news! We told the kids we had a secret for them...shared the news... they smiled... and Mylie asked if that was the secret. That's it! We found the baby's heart beat and they did think that was cool. Not what I was expecting at all.
Although, I was a little disappointed at their initial reaction, Mylie more than made up for it over the next few days! She would tell me out of the blue how excited she is to have a new baby... tell me that she'd be careful with my tummy because she didn't want to hurt the baby.. or that she could already tell my tummy was growing within hours! So cute. She's beyond excited to hold the baby.. help feed the baby.. and etc.
The first trimester has been really rough. My nausea was in full force at 6 wks. That's actually what prompted me to take the pregnancy test. Zofran didn't do the trick this time around.. it killed my 'system' which ended up being just as bad as the nausea. Bummer. At 10 weeks, I had two great days.. and week 11 has been great so far! I'm praying this is the end of it. My house fell apart... my family was neglected.. and simple tasks were not so simple. Mylie was convinced that cooking made me sick because of the numerous breaks I'd have to take. She prayed for me constantly, which melted my heart. Such a sweet girl.
I had my first OB appt at 9 weeks and we were able to see our little peanut via ultrasound. I had to find a new OB this time. My last doc delivered both Mylie and Luke in American Fork, so it felt weird having to 'shop' around for an OB again. But.. I think I hit the jackpot. I LOVE my new doc. She is beyond fabulous! I'm so excited to have her alongside us in this journey.
The belly is out and about. Seriously?! Crazy fast this time around. I remember showing early with Luke.. but that doesn't even compare with this time. Ugh.
That's our big news! We're so humbled, excited and grateful. This fall will be a whirlwind. We'll have a kindergartner, a crazy 3 yr old and a new babe!
Fun times ahead!

Congrats! What wonderful news.
Three is wild and there is NEVER a dull moment, but as you already know - you learn as you go and now that the babe is 7.5 months, I feel a little more on top of everything, lol.
I hope that you continue to feel better and that the next 6 months go as smoothly as possible.
