Rockin' The Bump !
I decided to join in with Shell and her many other blog readers for Rockin' The Bump. Time to show off some baby bump pictures! I have to admit, so far I really haven't taken many pics of #2 because I have been sick and felt like crap. But, I do have some of when I was pregnant with Will. Enjoy! If you want to show off your baby bump, head on over to Shell's place and link up. Plus, you can meet and read some pretty cool blogs.
I think I was about 5 or 6 months with Will.
Right before my baby shower at work, my BIL taking a belly shot with me... Hilarious! He actually has lost quite a bit of weight since then, so that's good!

but it was only a dream . . .
I fell asleep that night having a very heavy heart, missing my mama. Being pregnant with my second baby, all I have ever wanted was my mom close to me, telling me you are doing a wonderful job. But she's not here.
My pregnancies, for me can sometimes be lonely and a longing for my mom to be here. And that's just not possible for me. She was taken to Heaven almost a decade ago.
So that night, is not like any others, where she is on my mind. I had read a blog post about someone having ghostly encounters and wishing that I could have one with my mom. I wouldn't be scared because I would get to see her, just one more time.
.....We were sitting on my living room couch, next to each other. Will was sitting on my lap and we were looking at each other like no time had ever passed. Like she was on some long, extended vacation. She reached out her arms to Will, he looked up at me, then at her and opened his arms to her too. The smile on her face was huge and loving. Tears welled in both our eyes. She held him so close to her, taking him in. Then she finally spoke, and all she said was, "It's wonderful to finally meet you Will, I've missed you so much!"
And then it was over. I got to see her. I hope that it was real, I hope that in Will's sleep that night, he got to meet the grandma that loves him to pieces. Because I know she would.
You never know when you will lose a loved one and it will change your life forever. There will be a hole in your heart forever for that person and it will be okay, one day. But having moments like that, make you believe that they are okay. That they are well and happy. That they are building our house in Heaven and we will all be together one day. Still to this day and everyday I will say, CANCER SUCKS!
*To Patrice and your family, may peace be with you in this time. Anna is now healed.

We are having . . .
We found out this morning that we are going to have another little guy in our family! His ultrasound pictures actually look a lot like Will's, although Will thought he looked like a frog. Not sure where he got that one. But we are calling it Froggy now until we decide on a name, which is always a fun debate.
He looks healthy and absolutely comfortable in there, he was so tucked in, it was hard to get a measurement of his head. Lew is over the moon because now he has a Chicago Cub and a Chicago Bear!
We are all very excited about welcoming this little Froggy into our world in October!

Daddy and Will . . .
Recently, Will and Daddy went to visit Thomas at the B & O Railroad in Baltimore. They had a great day spending some quality time together. It was a little nerve racking for me because Will was in his first week of big boy underoos, but he didn't have one accident!
They had a wonderful time and I think this will be an annual Will and Daddy trip, if Will is still into trains in the coming years. They have so much for them to do there besides seeing Thomas, so hoping he will like to go next year.
In other news, had a great 18 week check up, baby 2 sounds great! We go on Monday for the anatomy ultrasound and to find out the sex, I cannot WAIT! I am thinking girl only because I have been so tired, continue to have breakouts, smells still get to me and I didn't have any of that with Will. Lew wants another boy because he knows how to take care of one. Either way, I can't wait to see a healthy baby on Monday!
