31 weeks along

Long time no post. Been so busy with little busy body Grace, being very prego and work that I haven't really had time to update this thing. Not even really sure anyone reads it, but here goes. Went to another ultrasound this week and everything looks good. Baby girl is about 3 pounds and growing well. She is already head down, seemingly as ready as me to be done with this pregnancy! Hard to believe that we only have 9 weeks left (hopefully sooner). Here's a couple of new pics.

Another baby update

Well last Saturday we had out second ultrasound and found out everything is going well with the baby. We also found out we are having another girl! Gracie is very excited to have a sister coming and keeps talking about how she will help feed her and take care of her. I'm sure that will last for a while until Emma (the name we chose for our new little one) gets big enough to start getting into Grace's things! They also found, unfortunately that I have marginal placenta previa. Spoke to the dr today and she is not concerned about it. She says in cases like mine they cure themselves 99% of the time. We will have another sonogram at 28 weeks to be sure that it is doing that. In the meantime here are some pics of our new baby girl and my growing belly!

Sad times

We have had very sad times in the Weber family. On August 26, 2009 we lost our beloved Ann. She was a wife, mother, mother in law, friend and more to many people. We were amazed and blessed with the outpouring of love we were shown after she passed. The many cards, thoughts, prayers, food, memorials received simply astounded us. She was a wonderful woman loved by all who knew her. We love and miss you Ann!

Baby update

So just an update on the baby. We had our first sonogram today and got to see the baby (jelly bean) and see it's heartbeat. Everything looks good. We are actually a week further along than we thought, so they moved the due date up to Jan 27th. Here are the sonogram pics that they sent home with us. Grace wasn't quite sure what to think of the whole thing I think. She is hoping for a baby sister now, so we will just have to wait a couple of months to see what we are having. The sonogram tech said she recommends waiting until 20 weeks to find out, just so you can really get a good chance to see, as sometimes you can't tell at 16 weeks, which is when some people try to find out. So we are 8 weeks along now and will be able to see in 12 weeks what we're having!

Adding to the clan

We are so excited that we are expecting our second child. We just found out a couple of weeks ago and were very shocked, but are very excited. Grace goes back and forth between wanting a brother or a sister. Steve of course is hoping for a boy and I am just happy that we are finally having one. We weren't trying so we were very surprised, but God has his own plans and things are always done in His time. Please keep us in your prayers that we have a healthy pregnancy and baby. We also need prayers for both our jobs. I am losing some of my kiddos to preschool this year :(. Very sad, but very excited for them to start this new chapter in their lives. Steve's company is also finishing up their merger and we are not sure about his job situation once it is completed. We hope all is well for you.

Catching up

We had a great couple of weekends the last couple of weekends. First was Mother's Day weekend. My mom and brother came up that weekend to hang out. Mom came up Friday night so we took her to lunch and enjoyed some shopping at the mall. Grace rode on the carosel with Nana twice, she loved it and didn't want to leave.

This weekend we went down to Udall Kansas, big city, I know. We went down to help my second cousin Whitney celebrate her graduation from high school. It was a good time. We got to see some family we haven't seen in about two years since her older sister's graduation. Had a good visit with my aunt Kendra and Grandad and some cousins. This coming weekend should be a little bit more quiet, just hanging out enjoying the three day weekend. Here are some pics of our great weekend visits.

How time flies!

Wow, hard to believe that four years ago today, Steve and I were celebrating our wedding day. Time sure does fly sometimes! The last four years has brought so many things, the best and biggest of which is our daughter Grace. She was the best "wedding gift" to ourselves we could have gotten. Steve did well this year-he surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers to celebrate both our anniversary and Mother's Day which is Sunday. He usually thinks flowers are a waste of money, so when he buys them for me, they are an extra special treat.

Thanks for everything you do and are Steve, I love you!
