15 Weeks and counting.....

Today I have hit the 15th week of Pregnancy.....I seriously cannot believe I'm already at this mark, it has gone by fast because I found out so early that I was pregnant I knew it would be a LONG pregnancy, and has somewhat been long, but sometimes I think where has the time gone?

But, I am starting to feel little butterfly movements in my stomach, so I know he/she is in there ;0) it's a great feeling!

Some people are asking when will I find out what I'm having....well, my next appointment is September 23rd at 1 p.m., and I'll be 2 days shy of 17 weeks, but she said at one of my earlier appointments that she likes to check to see what it is between 18-20 weeks.....So we shall see....And what do I want? I want a Healthy Baby!!!! But, I can honestly say I'd LOVE for it to be a GIRL!!! For so many reasons, the obvious reason is because I have my Boy and now I'd love to have my Girl too, a good balance between the two....What does Peyton want? a Boy! I think that's all he knows, as in, boy stuff, he wants someone to play with him....I remind him a lot that, I used to play with little boy toys with my Big Brother, and I'm a little sister, and he'd be the Big Brother, like Uncle Shane is :0) preparing him for either way hehe! And Jason, he hasn't really said...but I know he'd secretly love to have a little girl too....one of each...;0) But with Jason's genes which go something like this....

Jason has just one brother, no other siblings....
Jason's mom, is the only girl w/3 other brothers....
Jason's dad is one of 4 brothers.....
so, the odds are against us, but Jason does have quite a few girl cousins ;0)

But I basically just want a Healthy Baby......that's all I pray for.....

Peyton has been kissing my belly it is so sweet, since I'm already showing, crazy how that happens w/the 2nd one! I wasn't wearing maternity clothes until almost 6 months last time.....oh well, it's part of it ;0) and maternity clothes are sooooo COMFY!!!! :0)

Peyton has been doing GREAT in preschool.....he is learning shapes again, which he already knew them, and he is cutting a lot lately, I've noticed, it is so sweet to see the little jagged edges and to know that my child, did that!!! He goes 3 days a week, and 1/2 a day because he wasn't used to "school" or structure since he has always been with a sitter with maybe one other kid and him....so we're getting him in slowly.....

Jason is doing great! He is in Seminary again this semester and enjoying it....Ministry is going great! we're averaging around 50-ish Youth, which is pretty good considering there are churches on every corner in Cleveland....Jason is also teaching College & Career Sunday School as well, just another thing to fill his plate....but he is more than willing to do it, I'm so proud of him!!!!! For fun, Jason is playing fall Softball too, for our church league, as well as the University here in town because he goes to seminary.....I dare not go to that game though, I'd be the old woman there....being all pregnant...and w/a 4 year old LOL.....

I will post pictures soon.....
