A scare late this morning...

It was about 2 am when my hubby and decided to go to bed so I went for my last potty before snoozing away and we noticed there was some spotting:( Not very much but it really freaked us both out so I made my call to my dr. Of course my hubby checked it out on the net before getting the call back from the dr. The Dr. asked me several questions and so it came to find out that I was lacking WATER!!! I will admit I have not been drinking as much as I suppose to so this scared me and my butt is in gear now! WATER! WATER! WATER! It was really scary since I have not had this happen with Scarlett. This little girl was kicking away while I laid waiting for the call back. I hope we don't get this scare again!!

6 month mark...

Just hit 6 months and more then half way, YEAH!!! I have actually been feeling alot more energetic this time around which means I need to get all I need done ASAP! I have started feeling her kick alot more since my drs visit on Tuesday and lets say she is a kicker:) Scarlett has been actually giving kissesm hugs and saying "baby" to my butterfly tattoo, THAT is what she thinks is a baby, LOL!!!

We STILL don't have a name for her BUT we are still working on it:)

6 month Prenatal checkup!

My checkup went well today:) And Scarlett was just a doll at the drs. office, she walked in there owning the place, LOL!! I'm at 122 lbs, so I gained 4 lbs..errr!! My ultrasound from last month was great, the dr. said she is measuring great. We heard her heartbeat and its normal and she was kicking up a storm! I also had to take the glucose test as well and I passed it!! yeah! By the end of the visit, Scarlett DID NOT want to leave...she threw a fit:) At least she is not scared to go to the drs:)

Scarletts 1st Stomach Bug..yuck!

It has happened, she was attached by the stomach bug Saturday morning. She threw up alot which freaked her and I out, ate lunch, napped and off we went to the park. She complained the entire time about her tummy:( all she wanted was to be held and go to the bathroom. We came home and she threw up again and was very fussy all night. We made sure we gave her lots of love. Sunday morning she threw up again but not as much and I had bought some pedialyte saturday evening so she she loved having the popcicles:) After her nap on Sunday she was feeling alot better. Our poor baby was in pain and I wish we were able to do more. We hated seeing her poor face in pain:(

2nd Annual Katy Rice Harvest Festival

This was our 2nd Annual Rice Harvest Festival and we had so much fun, especially since Scarlett was able to have a great time and the weather was perfect! We went with a group of close friends and there families. We hit the food aisle!! and the kiddie rides WHICH Scarlett absolutely LOVED the carousel ride!!! Everytimne the ride was over and mommy took a break, she told us "HORSE! HORSE!" so she rode it about 4x's!!! She also did her first carnival game and dada won her the cutest puppy! We can't wait for next year!

Potty Training is a success:)

It has been a month since we started potty training and she mastered it, both pee and poopie the first week and half!!!! We were in shock!! But undies are all that she wears now and a pullup during naps/bedtimes since she doesn't fully understand to control her bladder yet. We are really proud of our little girl! She is learning so much, so quickly!! Oh! She enjoys flushing the toilet and sayong "bye bye" to it. Its soo cute:)

Mama hit the BIG 2-9 today!

Yup, its my birthday and it was a great day!! It was followed by my hubby and scarelett's "Happy Birthday" and it cute! Then by my parents and friends and family:) Daddy and Scarlett made my cake and she really wanted to help, all she said was "cake, cake!!" Of course our other daughter in my tummy moved alot especially when I ate some cake:)

Scarlett's 1st Clown Experience!

We went to a Birthday party today and Scarlett experienced her 1st clown!! She was hesistent at first, she stayed close by me but she started to warm up to Jewelz, the clown. She painted an Elmo and butterfly on her hand and arm, she also sangs songs, did a magic trick and made an Elmo balloon for Scarlett. She had a great time! We also went to a birthday party at Pump It Up a few weeks back and she had a blast down the slide :) And she wanted to help dada water the plants and bathe the dogs over the weekend.

Overwhelmed with so much to do...

I was just looking at my calendar and realized I only have 3.5 months left to get EVERYTHING finished before our 2nd daughter arrives next year. It feels time is flying so fast that there is not enough hours to get everything done. I'm planner and when things are not done right away or how I want them too, I get pretty upset at myself...its just me. The list starts off with getting Scarletts Big Girl room completed, a few touches in there bathroom upstairs, get the nursery ready for our new arrival in 09, photo shoots for Halloween, Christmas and Maternity, find a christmas dress for Scarlett, start buying Scarlett's christmas gifts NOW!, need Halloween yard decor(I LOVE HALLOWEEN!), begin Scarlett's Bow Board for her new room, several birthday parties to attend, buying the essentials for our 2nd daughter, preparing for Scarlett's 2nd Birthday Party - mail invites, secure the location, attend the plany playdates and events we signed up for and get ready for Grandmama to arrive next year(she willbe here to help me out and spend some time with Scarlett and our new baby - I'M SOOOO EXCITED!)

Is that a long list of TO DO'S or what!!!

The Holidays are such a busy time for all of us:)

1st Hairbow Photo Shoot!

Scarlett had her 1st photo shoot for a VERY close friend who makes handmade hairbows, who will be launching a website soon. The photos were done in Grand Lakes and it had a beautiful scenery and she really worked the camera...my little supermodel in the making:) She got to wear her spidy/pumpkin hairbows with her new halloween tee....she was just too adorable! We also met up with dada for lunch and it was a great Friday!
