Rough Days

Days are hard when your Daddy goes on deployment. There are days when I want to simply break down and cry and then I think - pick yourself up, God knows you can handle it.

The day your Daddy left you had a viral infection that caused these red bumps to cover you, you weren't sleeping, and you were CLINGY. We had to stay inside for 5 days and well, that tested me a lot. We were finally allowed out yesterday and man were we both thrilled. We went to Orr Farm, Mathis Brothers, and then to see Great Nana. We did those things with Meme and you were so excited. I know that we both love one another but five days is a long time.

Now, to your sibling... this kiddo is so different from you, Eddison. No heartburn (until like 9pm and it lasts about 5 min), no nausea, and already popping my belly button out. I am really curious to know if peanut is a boy or a girl. I thought we had names, and now I am not sold. We shall see. As of now you are in bed and I am going to enjoy a movie, some ice cream, and well quiet momma time. I love you Bear and you too lil peanut.

Baby 2 & Eddi

It is really starting to sink in I will have two kids under the age of two in 2015! We have been attempting names and I keep telling them to Eddison and wait for her reaction. I have two that I want and love, but we will see what Tim says.

Eddi, you are growing up so quickly now and I wish I could keep you in a time bubble and never let you out. Alas, you have to grow so you can be the best big sister EVER. Today we went to the Zoo and I can tell how you want to be a big girl, and how independent you are. I love you so much. I am so thankful for you.

I pray that when this baby comes you know my love for you is not any less, it is just shared with this new bundle of joy. I pray that you can look at him/her and know that you are the one who will teach them everything they will know. They will look to you for guidance and support. Being a big sister is important and so exciting. You can talk with your Aunt Katie :)

Anyway, I know you are about to wake up so I will sign off.

- Baby 2 - you are 15 weeks today, I have massive headaches, random nausea, and I felt your flutters yesterday. I am so excited to meet you. I love you.
