Lots of news!!!

WE ARE HAVING ANOTHER BABY!!!!! I'm so excited and super nervous. I am due June 13, 2013 and we are having a boy. Yes, I know, ANOTHER June baby!! I am 23 weeks along now. This pregnancy has been a completely different experience from when I had Cambry. I had nausea pretty bad for the first few months. I had to get on medication for it so that I didn't get too sick or dehydrated. That helped, but it made me so tired. Even when I took it at night, I would wake up in the morning feeling like a didn't sleep at all. So it was nice when I was finally able to stop the meds. I am also on shots of blood thinners again, due to my blood disorder that puts me at risk for blood clots. That is not fun at all. I have to give myself an injection every day up to 6 weeks postpartum. I have also had a lot more of the common symptoms that I didn't have at all with Cambry. I just hope the delivery goes as smooth as hers did.
We have picked out a name for our little boy.... Oliver Mason Yeates. I love the name Oliver because its not very common, but its still a classic name. Not like the crazy names people come up with now a days. I had no idea that name was also Jake's grandpa's middle name until I mentioned that I liked that name. So it also holds some meaning for the Yeates family. I just hope no one is too upset with us using that name.

Cambry is getting so big!! I can't believe how fast they grow. Unfortunately I was unable to afford to put cambry in preschool and dance. However, she does go to a daycare that is basically like a preschool. She has learned to count to 16 on her own, and can trace letters, numbers and shapes really well. She knows all of her basic shapes and all the colors. She can sing her ABC's but cannot identify all of them yet. But she loves to learn those things which makes it easier to teach her. She also loves to color and draw. She can draw a face, head and all! And she actually does really well at staying in the lines when she colors. I have compared her pictures to other kids in her class at daycare, and you can definitely see the difference. She loves going to daycare and everyone there LOVES her too!
Cambry hasn't really grown a whole lot physically in the last year. But its normal for her. She only weighs 28lbs. She is now into size 3T clothing but can still fit into most of her 2T shirts and dresses. She is just a petite little thing! She is pretty excited about her little brother coming. She gets frustrated when we show her the ultrasound pictures because she wants to hold him NOW! She is so impatient and its so cute. But we will see how much she likes him when he actually is here!

Everything else is pretty much the same for now. We hope to be able to get a new vehicle sometime this year. Jake's car has started having problems and we don't want to have to deal with the expenses of fixing it when we have the baby. I'm hoping we can get a Ford Explorer. We will also have to put doing the frontyard on hold for this year. I will have to go back to part time hours after the baby comes so we won't be able to afford it. But if anyone knows of anything that I can do part time to make some extra money that doesn't take a lot of time or work please let me know!!! Also if anyone knows of anyone that could watch an infant a couple days a week please let me know. I really don't want to put him in daycare so young, but it may be my only option. I will update with photos next time.
