Baby Update...

First of all, I hate a post with no pictures. Its not fun for me... but my other computer with the pictures is giving me some SERIOUS issues. I just hope I don't loose all my pics.

The baby is getting more mobile and he has been practicing his karate kicks for when he has to beat up his older siblings :). Dave has felt the baby move several times. I think its awesome to share that with him. The last few day s my belly has felt big. I am hoping that will help me not eat as much since I have gained more weight than I would have wanted at this point.

We have been having a really hard time coming up with a good name for this baby. Our other kids had names well before this point. But we are undecided. We keep "trying" names during the day and calling the baby that name, but nothing seems to fit just right. The kids feel like they should have a say in the decision and I think... they will have their turn with their kids, so let me do with mine what I want! :)

I am excited that we only have 17ish weeks left. That just seems crazy! Soon it will be 10 weeks left and in the blink of an eye he will be here. Time is going by really fast! So much to do and so much to move around in the house and organize I feel like I need to tackle at least one project weekly. Then trying to keep up with the house. I am completely out of breath if I do to much so, I need to pace myself.

This has been an enjoyable pregnancy (as my others) after the scary first 17-19 weeks were I feel like its not going to work... but I feel blessed to have this opportunity again. I can't wait to meet this little guy. I wonder what he will look like, white or brown :). All we need is a red head in the family and we can be TOTALLY multi-cultural looking.

For now I will keep loving my big belly (and rear end :))

So glad that you're feeling good. I'm glad he is healthy. I think you look great.

Maybe he's going to be a baby that you're going to have to see before you can decide on the name. I hope you keep feeling good.

I hope he's red headed. That'd be awesome.
I've always wanted to call my boys Dru but Dru won't let me.
So my vote is for Dru. I think it's a cool name and I think Dru (his names sake) is an awesome person ;)
But what was it......... your kid so your choice right?
LOL
I've had my chances.
Fingers crossed I have one more boy, then I've got one more shot at the name Dru.

I have decided I need to be more positive about being pregnant like you! I am constantly complaining that I hate it so I felt guilty reading your blog entry :) I've got about 2 weeks left and am crossing my fingers for less. I can't believe you will be a family of 6 soon!!!

I love being pregnant too! I am so excited for you! Two boys and two girls how perfect! Good luck organizing your house! I wish I could be there to help!

I can't wait to find out what you will name him...I am sure it will be a cool name. Sorry about your computer...you should get an external hard drive. We have one that we only use to save our pictures and family movies (not expensive). We had had a scary computer issue before. Erick also backs them up onto cd's every so often. I am glad that you are feeling great. Love you girl.

That's cool that Dave can feel the baby now. I'm hoping that's just around the corner for us. :) I feel the same way about the projects. There is so much I feel like I need to get done, but by the end of the day, I just don't have the energy to do everything I want to. Hopefully we can at least get a nursery done at some point. :)

We didn't name Riley until the day we brought him home from the hospital. If they kids would have a their way Trevor would have been named Bob. I'm all for the parents deciding.

I so need to be more positive! A red-headed Trevino would be so cute!! I have thought in categories when trying to come up with names... family names, presidential names, cities.... I agree with Carrie, you may have to see him first to know what his name will be!
