10+ weeks later

Wow, I've really done a great job at keeping up with this blog.

Baby Boy #2 who still remains nameless is doing well. Just causing his Mama all sorts of problems; back aches, sciatica, pubic bone pain, ankle pain and just in general uncomfortable. In all honesty, I have not enjoyed this pregnancy nearly as much as Landon's. Things are no longer new and exciting to me and unfortunately I am just ready to be done.

Current names that we are throwing around: Logan, Noah, Jaxon, Braxton, Rylan, Ryan, Kai. I don't love any. Not like I did with Landon. So at this point I just feel like I'm settling on a name and I hate it. There have been plenty of arguments over this baby's name. I LOVE the name Kade, however, Mike has found every reason not to name baby boy Kade. I also like Nolan which has been shot down. His name list that I don't like is Gunner, Hunter, Brodie and Colby. Not my style at all.

Little brother is already very different from big brother just in how they move. Landon was always very active and hitting or punching. I remember watching my belly vibrate from his kicks and punches. Instead, now I sit here watching my belly warp. This one is not nearly as active though I have to say it has picked up a bit in the past few weeks. I swear I have Thumper sitting in there. I feel like sometimes I get these vibrations like a rabbit who is scratching its ear. I also get the feeling baby is spreading all 4's at one time which is uncomfortable. He also takes what seems to be his heel and drags it up and down my belly causing me to wince a lot now.Seriously child this is a problem! Stop it!

I'm also carrying much higher than I did with Landon. I think has also made me more uncomfortable in general.

Work is horrible and knocking me out right on my ass most nights. The constant up, down, up down, peeing every hour on the hour and all the aches and pains make it hard to get around and get things done.

Landon has no clue as to what is going on but is adorable and plays with my herniated belly button pushing it in and saying Ba-by! I'm starting to have that Mommy guilt that he's no longer going to be the only one and it makes me sad some days.

The nursery is coming along. I hope for it to be done by the end of June, beginning of July but we'll see if that happens. I'll post pics when its done.

For now here is a picture of Landon and I taken last weekend.
