The last few months have been busy and boring all at the same time. We have been keeping busy with other stuff besides tv or internet. with our circumstances at the moment we cant afford them so they are gone. William's work has been super slow but has started to pick up the last week or so. This has been a very humbling experience for us.

Ashleigh is getting to be so cute. She is smiling and starting to occasionally giggle if prompted. We went to the doctor yesterday for her 2 month well check and she is doing great. She is 13 pounds and 25 3/4 inches long. she is such a joy to be around and so mellow. She can sleep through the night but sometimes i let her wake if i need her to feed cause im hurting. Loving having all the girly stuff around having so much fun.

Update!

Yes i know its been a while since i have blogged. So much going on and keep forgetting about it.

To catch everyone up on what has happened, William has graduated this last April doing a profession that he loves. He was on the Dean's list and got a 4.0 during the entire process. He took his MBLEX shortly before he graduated and got the highest score (of 841 out of 900) that anyone has seen before. Getting a job after he graduated has been rough but he finally got on with a very good spa that is very flexible and pays well. There are other incentives as well. The first couple weeks were rough not getting many hours but as time goes on he gets more and more. I am very proud of him he has done very well, especially with all the stress of living with in laws and such.

Next, We are expecting baby #2 and its a girl this time! We are so excited! Spencer hasn't yet grasped the concept yet, but he is learning. Before we started trying to get pregnant William promised that this one would be a girl. And he was correct! Same with predicting Spencer, he must have a sense for it. The pregnancy has been long and i'm only 28 1/2 weeks along. The first trimester was really hard. I was constantly sick with colds, stomach flu and sinus stuff on top of the insane nausea. Also started off with complications as well, there was an extra sack or fluid that had to be watched, we weren't sure if it was a twin or what. The second trimester has been much easier. The only thing is When i had my 20th week ultrasound they found a fibrous growth on my uterus that they have to watch. If it grows and interferes with the baby i may end up getting a C-section. I really don't want one if i can help it but, it depends on the size and positioning of it. I have another ultrasound in a couple weeks to see how big it is if it has grown. Now, I'm in my third trimester so far not too bad but im getting nausea again and a lot more tired. My cravings change frequently. I am due Sept 2nd.

Spencer is getting bigger and smarter by the day. He has figured out how to open his door and wont stay in there if we want him to. we had to get creative on keeping him in there, otherwise he wouldn't stay in bed and sleep during the night. He is talking more and more finally. his biggest word is Seriously, I must say it a lot. He is in the 95th percentile over all still. He is a couple pounds shy of 40 lbs. I almost need a lift to lift him up. :-P
