2

I am very excited to (finally) announce that baby #2 will be due Dec. 14!!!! I am about 12 weeks now..and am finally feeling like a normal person! I got sick starting around week four, and it lasted until about a week ago. Not quite as sick as with Calvin.. but still definitely not fun! The drive out to Kansas with my Mom ended up being a nightmare. Day one was great..I drove most of the way and felt totally fine. But once we got to our hotel in Nebraska for the night, Cal decided he didn't want to sleep..AT ALL. So...next day was not as good. I ended up getting a migraine, and I've had maybe 4 in my life total. But when I get them my entire body shuts down, and I throw up, so add being pregnant on top of it, and it was not a pretty picture. I am so grateful my Mom was with me or I hate to think of how awful that trip would have been!~

   But........we made it...I am finally feeling healthy and happy...and WE ARE SO EXCITED!! :) Crazy to think another little baby will be a part of our family in a few months!! Oh and did I mention I already look 5 months pregnant? Wow...so fun...haha.

18 Months (Don't mind the nudity!!)

   
              This little naked hooligan is 18 months today! I can't even believe he is already this old..it seems crazy to me. We have been adjusting to Kansas, we love our apartment but it has been raining so much! Calvin was dancing in the rain on our balcony before bathtime in these photos :) I had tried to snap a pic of him looking down and out so that it was just his bum..but he turned around when I got the camera on.

         So, as of today here are his stats.

  Height: 34"- 90%
  Weight: 29 lbs 9 oz.- 85%
   Head Circumference: 50 cm- 95%

     Yes, he is a BIG BOY! The doctor thought she had his age wrong and thought he was two! He is getting mighty mighty heavy, but hey it's a good arm workout when he still wants me to carry him, or when I am forced to when he's not cooperating :)

   As of late, these are the things Calvin is doing:
*Running at lightning speed anywhere and everywhere (especially FROM me)
*Climbing everything..luckily not jumping yet, but I see it happening very very soon
*He gives high fives, low fives, even double fives!
*We say our prayers at night and he even folds his arms! Sometimes he'll whisper to himself while I am praying like he is praying too..melts my heart
*He gives the best hugs and kisses! And his kisses are always open mouthed and slobbery..love it
*He can't say all the names, but will point out different animals when asked
*Loves blowing bubbles! It's his favorite

There is so much more but this late at night my brain is not working correctly. I am so proud of my little man...he is growing up before my eyes! What a little stud :)
