Family Update

So much is going on these days. School is about to start and its a mad dash of finding the perfect school for Allorah up here in Santa Fe. It's so frustrating as well. We are crossing our fingers for a great outcome. Needless to say she isn't too thrilled but we try to keep her optimistic.
Jordyn is fixing to graduate next week. She is so excited but scared at the same time, as this is real life and time to grow up and fly on your own. She will do well, she is a natural at this!


Jordyns birthday dinner last weekend.


Allorah being a clown that same evening!
Nathan is doing amazing and still loving his job up north. He has an amazing group of guys that work for him and he is hoping to promote again. Please say a prayer for his continued success.
I am staying busy with my job and loving the challenges that I face head on and learning as I grow. I have the greatest staff and my providers are awesome. I can honestly say I love my job. I also love my weekends when I can spend time with my family, kids and this handsome guy...


With Hudson on the way, we have to get in as much "us" time as we can get. Once the little sweetness comes along, it will be so long date night and hello insomnia.
We had our monthly perinatalology appointment today and got to see our bean.


He already looks like his daddy!





The doctor is concerned about his kidneys. He has bilateral pyelectasis, enlarged kidneys. The doctor told us it very well may clear itself up, as little boys can be lazy and not empty their kidneys well at first, so they referred us to a pediatric nephrologist in Albuquerque and we will see him in September when I am about 33 weeks. We are nervous, but have faith that all will be ok. Pease say a little prayer for our little man. I will keep all posted on this. Hudson's nursery is coming along and we are enjoying picking out his stuff. I cannot wait to see his custom bedding come in and will post pics as soon as I get it.
We are headed to Lubbock this weekend to see my dear friend, Nikki. Road trip on the horizon and pics to follow.

Defender of the Belly

My sweet little LuLu knew I was pregnant even before we did, but ever since this is what she does as soon as I sit down on the couch. She comes right over and lays her head on Hudson. Last night he kicked her hard enough to startle her. I guess LuLu was cramping his style!

Hudson Andrew

We got to see our sweet Hudson Andrew on the June 26th and I forgot to post his pic. What a cutie, once again sucking his thumb. He is a big boy again measuring at the 76th percentile. Yikes! I shudder to think of a natural childbirth. 

Spoiled Brother

So this is what happens when I'm at work and Lola and Nathan are home, they go shopping! 

I was told "all baby boys need a tuxedo onesie, it says I'm formal but here to party!" This poor baby is going to spoiled rotten!

Results Are In...

Preliminary results are in and so far they are perfect! No chromosomal abnormalities are seen and we have a confirmed little boy growing in my womb! We are overjoyed and so relieved. We will get the final results next week. 

Wait Game

Waiting for anything stinks, but waiting to hear test results for your kiddos is brutal. I am hoping to get our amnio preliminary results today. So fingers and toes are crossed for a healthy baby boy!

It's a Boy!!

We are so proud to announce that we are having a bouncing baby boy!! YAY!!

My amniocentesis went well yesterday and we will patiently await the preliminary results which should be back possibly tomorrow. I had minor cramping all night but nothing too concerning. I do have placenta previa which they are hoping will move some to avoid any problems. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, as I do not want bed rest. Anyone that knows me, knows I would go crazy. The kids are absolutely thrilled and already planning outfits to buy. This is going to be one spoiled little boy! I can't wait.
