Big News!

I told the Flybabies, but didn't think about announcing it anywhere else. Then the create content wasn't working, etc...

Anyway...

Baby #4 is on it's way and will be here in November. We are very excited, I'm feeling fine. Except, much to my dismay, this baby doesn't want me to go to Chili's, which is one of my most favorite places to eat! Hopefully baby will change it's mind about that place soon.

I'm already showing, I'm in my last pair of Rockies, my biggest pair. That is depressing. But, I'm hoping to get to Old Navy soon and get some new jeans (after three babies, mine are getting a bit worn out. Need an excuse to go to Old Navy and Sams in Lubbock anyway).

I'm going to try not to "enjoy" this pregnancy as much as the last. I gained 65 pounds with him, I don't want to have to lose all that again, and my face got horribly fat. LOL! DH told me last night he wants me to take it easy this time, too. Chance's umbilical cord had 2 or 3 knots tied in it, and DH thinks me being a little too busy did it. So he doesn't want me branding cows this time around. Like chasing three other kids and coaching cheerleading will be "taking it easy". Men.

Anyway, just wanted you non-flybabies to know!!

congrats

Jenny--

Congratulations! How far along does that make you? I am always envious of people who have so little morning sickness. I usually spend 2-3 months puking my guts up, so if all you can't handle is Chili's, that's not too bad. It's hard though when your usual favorites don't sound good when you're pregnant.

I hope you enjoy your pregnancy in other ways than gaining weight Smiling

This just puts me at 9 weeks.

This just puts me at 9 weeks. Not far, but 1/4 done if you look at it that way. LOL! Though all of my babies have been late (3 days, 9 days and 9 days).

I really, really, REALLY hate puking. I did more with my first (lost 10 pounds), little with my second (both girls). With Chance I didn't puke, but, as with this one so far, just don't want certain things. And I'm doing all I can to keep from being sick (like taking it easy more when the urge starts to come).

Today, I got out my maternity clothes. Not wearing them yet, but I put away all the skinny clothes (size 7s) and the cute little t-shirts, just kept out my bigger ones. This is my first non-summer baby, but I hope most my summer things will get me thru.

KFC is sounding really good, and I haven't been there in YEARS! I may have to plan a trip to Clovis for that. BTW, Lauralyn, I live an hour away from the dr. and closest hospital (actually, there is one closer that is in my county, but they don't deliver babies. It can't afford the insurance for it). It's in a town called Clovis, New Mexico. They got a Chili's last September and a Lowes the year before that, AND a Hobby Lobby. Rumor has it they are getting Applebees (bleh) and Olive Garden (yum!). All we need is a Sam's and Old Navy and the only reason I'll have to go to Lubbock (which is 2 hours away) will be to see my SIL, nephew, and my not-yet-born niece! Clovis is supposedly getting all this stuff because rumors are a-flyin' that the air force base in Phoenix is closing, and our base, Cannon, is getting all of those people, which will double ours. Of course, all this is rumors, but I'm hearing it from several different sources.

Anyway, Clovis also has Wendy's, Red Lobster, and Cotton Patch, so I usually eat when I go up there. Portales (the town I'm closest to, 26 miles away) does have a few little local places, most Mexican, a McDs and Pizza Hut (we had a Burger King, but it closed down, along with the one in Clovis. They "say" it's so they can get a better location, which is total bull. They went bankrupt, according to my friend that works at the Chamber of Commerce). Oh, and one steak house, which I get to go to next week for free. I'm on the elections committee for our local rural telephone coop and we have our annual meeting next week and the coop buys us lunch. yummy!!! shrimp sounds really good. And they have the BEST salad bar! And Mud Pie!!! LOL!

I can talk up a storm!! LOL! If you ever want to shoot the breeze while your on bedrest, just send me a note here! LOL!

BTW, how old are your other 3 kids? How are you able to take care of them, too? Wow! I just can't imagine being confined to bed, but of course, I know you have to for your babies' sakes. I wanted to transplant some crepe myrtle trees, but the 50MPH winds right now aren't letting me.

Oh, and I'm going to try to put up lots of pictures of me getting fat this time on my personal web site. Since your just laying around anyway, I got lots of pictures on it. The addy is www.jandjessary.com

showing already

Well, Jenny, all I can say is that I wish that I had been putting away size 7's when I started showing! I actually never show until a lot farther along (even with two), but I haven't been a size 7 since I was about 19 either. Smiling

I went to your website, but I didn't see a single fat picture Smiling Your kids are very, very cute though.

There's a picture of me big and pregnant with Chance. It says I was 8 months, but I think it was actually 7, since he wasn't born for nearly another 2 months.

Thanks for the compliments on my kids. I think they are pretty darn cute myself. Except Chance now thinks it's fun to take his diaper off and run around the house naked. Wouldn't be so bad if he was potty trained. I'll have to get a picture of that to embaress him with someday.

I'm planning on putting lots of fat pics up as I get them taken. That's something I didn't do much with the others, but now that I'm into scrapbooking, I want some. Go figure!
