J2B2: The Last One!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today is my last day using the progesterone suppositories. I should be celebrating. Seriously doing a shimmy and jumping up and down because I can without stuff dripping down my leg (haha. yes TMI) and the other side effects. Unfortunately I am super nervous. The fertility clinic has assured me that using the suppositories up to week 9 is an adequate time frame and the babes will be fine. It's just hard to think that we could fight super hard for this baby and something so little could potentially cause a miscarriage. I guess I will just move forward in faith and maybe a little finger crossing. :) 

J2B2: Second Ultrasound

We got to see our little babes for the second time! Jax and Jon were there again for the appointment but let's be honest Jax was way more into looking at cars on Jon's phone than seeing a grainy video :). But it was so fun to see our little babes moving like crazy in there and here the heartbeat again. I'm 9 weeks and officially "graduated" from Utah Fertility Clinic. I will move back to Valley OB and continue my appointments there. I will miss the staff at Utah Fertility especially my doctor, Dr. Conway and my fav nurse, Ashley. They were all amazing and it's definitely a little stressful to leave but I am excited with the pregnancy moving forward.

Tiny Moment: Locker Buddies

The last few weeks we have be joining in the swimming fun at the Provo Rec Center with cousins. At the end of swimming time, they have decided hanging out in the lockers is the coolest! :) Cutest little locker buddies :)

Tiny Moment - Too Old

He might be a "little old" for a binky but he will never be too old to cuddle with his momma! :) 

Tiny Moment - It's All About The Bass

Jaxson loves the song "It's All About the Bass" so when he saw a commercial with babies dancing to it, he couldn't help himself! :)

J2B2: What It Wants It Gets

This babes likes dairy....a lot and dislikes a lot of other stuff, including sleep. Thankfully Jon has kept the ice cream in high supply and my doc's office prescribed me a prescription of Diclegis (basically Unisom and Vitamin B). So we are surviving over here :) 

Tiny Moment - My Wild Animal

Oh my lanta, how did I birth a wild animal!??! Good thing he is real cute! 
Even wild animals need to sleep every once in a while. (This kid could not be any cuter when he sleeps!) :)

Tiny Moment - Make Time Stop!

Today is this little guy's half birthday! I'm dying that he is three and half! All of his baby quirks are pretty much gone and it's killing me. I keep telling him he's not allowed to keep growing up but he doesn't listen to me. ;(

J2B2: First Ultrasound

I get very nervous before all of my baby appointments. Whether it's for making a baby or checking in on one. I still can't believe we got a positive pregnancy test. There is a part of me that still thinks it can't be real. After 28 cycles, it can't be real. The doctor's office and home pregnancy tests keep telling me I am, but after everything I am still in a little shock that it's happening. 
As a cheesy effort to stay positive, I decided to paint my finger and toe nails gold for good luck :) It also helped that Jon and Jaxson were able to come to the appointment. 
Here is our one little babes and we couldn't be happier!!!! Nurse said the baby had a great heart rate at 144 bpm and everything looked really good. Our due date in December 1st.

Field Trip Day!!!

Today for our field trip we headed to Lowes jump place in Provo :) Perfect venue for a snow filled day. :) The kiddos loved it :) And going anywhere with these two is always an adventure! 

J2B2: How Many???

So tomorrow we go in for our first ultrasound to make sure the pregnancy is in the right place, has a heart beat and do a little head count. Today I asked Jon how many he thought were in there and his vote is 2!!!! Ahhhhhh!!! I've been pretty bloated, so it's either the progesterone meds or it's more than one, we will see!!!!

Snow Day in April

We woke up to snow and it was such a fun surprise! Of course Jax had to play in it and that included rocking his wiggle car :) Man I like this kid! 
Then we came back inside where he proceeded to drink (aka "steal") all my water :) 
Yay for a snow day in April :)

Tiny Moment - Surviving Our Days :)

Today we have been working in the yard but taking some breaks too :) 
Isn't this what helps every one with pregnancy nausea?!?! Ginger Ale & Doritos! 
Man this kid!!!! :) 
This is a big reason I have a hard time keeping my water consumption up. He only wants to drink water if it's mine. Good thing he is really cute ;)
