GUESS WHAT??!!

Well most of you already know but for those of you who do not, we are PREGNANT again!!! I have been waiting to tell everyone until after my doctor's appointment which was today. According to the dates of my last period, I am 8 weeks and 5 days, however based on the size of the baby today, he said I was only 6 weeks and 2 days. So that was confusing. I was able to hear the strong heartbeat which was very comforting. Ashlyn and my mom went with me.
My DR wants to see me again on Monday just to check me again. Because of my last miscarriage he just wants to keep a close eye on things for awhile which I'm very happy about.

We told Ashlyn the day I took the test. She is very excited however sometimes docent believe me because my belly doesn't look like a belly with a baby in it just yet :)

As of right now my due date is May 15, 2010. We are very excited. We have been trying for this little all year so I am truly thankful.

As far as how I'm feeling? Well, I'm hungry...ALL THE TIME. OMG it's really annoying. I'm not one of those that throw up and feel better. I'm one that if I feel hungry, I get nauseous and have to eat. This is like every hour or less. Talk about weight gain ugh. I've been pretty tired too. So all of which are good, healthy symptoms.

Now that I finally told everyone, I can keep everyone updated. Please keep us in your prayers that all goes well with this pregnancy. Any tips for good snacks please share, although sometimes nothing sounds good. ha. Oh the joys of pregnancy.

Our Anniversary getaway

Luis and I celebrated our anniversary this past weekend. We decided to take a night to getaway. One, for our anniversary and two, for a last chance to get away before he starts up at the Academy on Monday. We left on Sat and spent the day in Gruene. I love that town. We had lunch at the Gristmill. They had a chicken salad sandwhich to die for! We walked around town then had dessert at the Tearoom, very yummy. We then headed to San Antonio for the night. The place where we spent so much time in the very beginning where he was stationed. We finally got into our hotel, chilled out for a little bit then got dressed and headed down to the Riverwalk. We had dinner at the Saltgrass. I love me some steaks. The next day we walked around Market Square and had lunch at Mi Tierra, another one of our favorite places. With bellies full we headed back home to our little girl.
I love my husband more than these words can even describe. I thank God for shoving me to go after him ;) (I blew him off a time or two) I love you baby and I look forward to what our future holds.

Diving board and chicken fried..

Just a few pictures since nothing else is really going on. Ashlyn is still loving to swim. She is almost fearless now. She loves jumping off the diving board and off the side. She swims in the deep end, floats around the pool. It's such a relief knowing your 3 yr old can swim, and I mean really swim if she ever got in a bind. She fell in the other night in her pjs bc she was running around the pool. She was fine, swam right to the side and got out. Here are some pics of the diving board jumps. her face is priceless.



And here she is cooking fried chicken with her Gmommie. She loves to help with anything now (except cleaning her room ha) but she loves to help cook and fold laundry. Mommie's little helper.
