Tantrums

Hannah has begun the tantrum stage! I forgot to till Mitchell last week that she's started the stage. Sunday morning came around and he made her a bottle like we always do after breakfast. She waited in the kitchen but we always give it to her in the living room because the kitchen tiles can be cold. He walked into the living room.She drops to the ground and started throwing a tantrum. She wanted to be carried in there. Mitchell looked at me confused, "I didn't do anything!" I just kinda chuckled and informed him shes just throwing a tantrum. Set it on a book in the living room and walk away. She'll get it when she ready. He went into the bathroom were he could still see her. She stopped, looked around and noticed none of us were paying attention to her. She got up and started crawling into the living room. Mitchell runs out of the bathroom"Ha I caught you Hannah!" She immediately drops to the floor and continues her tantrum. He went back into the bathroom laughing. Once again she waited till she realized no one was paying attention to her and crawled to her bottle. Mitchell was just shocked. I kept saying I thought I told you! It just amazes us how fast they grow up. She's starting to say "Doggy" whenever Dodger enters the room. So now she knows five words. Mom, Dad, Doggy, Hi, and Yeah.
Another thing I have to update on is my Mommy is coming this Friday evening for 10 days! I'm sooo excited!!! yay!!!! Well I need to try and use what little energy I have on the house!

Family Day

Last Monday the RS(Recruiting Station) had a Family Day at Wild Mountain in Taylor Falls, MN. They gave the option that you can go Skiing or Tubing for the afternoon. I really think that was the best Family Day they have held so far. If they worked more than 50 miles away we got to stay at a hotel paid in Saint Crouix Falls, WI. So we checked in Sunday evening and went swimming in their pool. I swam around with KalieAnn until her weight became too much for my stomach muscles to handle. We then got to hang out with some friends we haven't seen for awhile. We ended up going to bed late because I needed Mitchell to go on a food run for me at midnight. I tried to ignore it but the more I did, the more sick I felt.
The Following morning we ate breakfast at the complimentary breakfast they held downstairs. Then we checked out and headed up to Wild Mountain. Then after we listened to the family Day and ate lunch everyone went off to do their own thing. We all had a lot of fun. KalieAnn really enjoyed it in the beginning and then when she started to get get tired, she was done.

10 Weeks & Showing!!!

I can't believe that I am showing already!!!! I'm in my maternity clothes!!! In fact we ended having to go buy me some maternity pants that weren't larges! I realized that all my maternity pants with Hannah had to be larges to fit me. I didn't need pants with her till I was big and prego. Apparently with this one I'm going to need it for the beginning and possibly the end. The pants that we bought are the kind that are suppose to grow with your belly. We're hoping I'll be able to wear them throughout.
My morning sickness I would like to say is slowly getting better but last week I had three good days in the beginning and then the rest of the week I had a hard time keeping things down. So we'll see. Sometimes I can lay down and for the most part it stays down. My wonderful daughter though has caught me on it. KalieAnn started having uh oh's again last week. They were the kind that you know she was doing it on purpose. I was calling her on it. Next thing I know she is giving me her attitude look with her hand on her hips and says "I have Uh Oh's Mommy but my nummies stay in my tummy."She walked away shaking her finger at me. At first I thought I was hearing things and just giggled. Then we sat down for lunch and KalieAnn lifts up her shirt. She then proceeds to ask me if I see it. Pointing at her tummy and I said yeah... curious what her point was. Next thing I hear is "My nummies stay in my tummy mommy, My tummies happy" I just laughed and said "thats a good thing sweatheart" and gave her, her lunch.
Hannah has been clinging to me like crazy lately. She follows me and climbs on my like I'm a climbing gym. She did have a moment last week where Ileft the girls upstairs to play so i can go downstairs and work on the laundry. I came back upstairs and saw that Hannah had climbed onto the couch and got into my Nilla Wafers. Well I'm off to keep working on my house...its an ongoing project..God Bless!

My First OB Appointment

We went to my appointment this morning. I've lost four pounds due to morning sickness. Its not worrying the doctor yet but he says if I start throwing up more than twice a day and the nausea is getting worse to call him. Then he'll give me some medications to help with it. He also wants to keep my due date at September 6Th. Which puts me at 9 weeks and four days. Our next OB appointment is scheduled the same day as Hannah's 12 month check up, the 6Th of March. Well that all to update here. I'm off to try and get the girls down for a nap. God Bless!

Mitchell went down to the main office so he could see if he can get taped out to re-enlist. Turns out he was able too...yay!!! He just needs to have our doctor sign off that he's healthy and the dentist to sign off that he has good teeth. He's going to go by the dental office today to see if he can get that done today and see if our Doctor can sign off on the other one tomorrow morning at my OB appointment. Plus its looking like he'll get the re-enlistment bonus. Another YAy! If you want a third YAY this means we won't have to worry about the paper work getting done in time for the insurance to carry over and his pay check hopefully won't be affected.
On top of him re-enlisting we're getting ready for Hannah to turn 1! Can you believe it? I'm having a hard time believing its been a year let alone 9 weeks prego with the next. Its really amazing how fast time flies by once your out of high school. However January seemed to just drag by for me...I'm so ready for Spring its not even funny. I'm tired of the 7-16 degree highs. I've never been a person that likes wearing regular shoes as it is. I'm a flip flop girl. So this cold weather really should limit itself to Christmas and I'd be a very Happy person. But for now its still cold and we still need to bundle up like crazy people for a little while longer. Well I'm off to finish working on the laundry.
