Baby Number 2 is on Its way!!!!

We are expecting! Baby number two is on it's way, and we are all very excited. MedicMan didn't think we would be getting a Big Fat Positive yet, and quite frankly neither did I. I am still processing the news myself, it hasn't totally set in yet. I think its because with BoobMan, I knew I was pregnant way before we took the test(a week or two after I could have tested). So now I get to go through "morning" sickness again, being pregnant through summer again, and all that fun stuff. Except this time I have a toddler to chase around, potty train, and continue nursing. I'm lucky that we don't have to buy any major stuff, or that many clothes as I kept gender neutral clothing. and best of all I don't have to buy any diapers. Ok, so if we find out its a girl I will be buying a few ruffle bottom cloth diapers to add to the stash, but it's not like I have 500 cloth diapers.(and if have 500 cloth diapers, that's not a bad thing). I hope to do a few things different this time around, and I really hope my birth plan goes a little more as I had planned it to last time. I am ready for a happy and healthy 9 months with a happy and healthy baby in the end.


Help me nickname the baby! so far I have called it Jelly bean, Nugget, Cocoa bean(it currently is the shape of one), and Jumping Bean.......comment your idea on what to call my little baby!

First Post Ever....moving two households at once*water ballet anyone?*

Yes, that title was right...we are moving not only my small family, but also my mom and brother. We are preforming a water ballet of sorts because they are moving into our apartment(which we were renting from the university my mother attends and I attended) while we are moving closer to my paramedic husbands work. All this happens Thursday and Friday, right before Christmas. Call us nuts, because I think we are. I get to balance watching my 15 month old during all of this. I am not sure how we are going to pull this off,  but after the last "big"move during the ice storm...I think we can handle it. Because of MedicMans schedule, and where we currently live. He is actually the only one who has seen were we are going to live, that's right I have NOT seen my very near future home. I guess it will kind of be like a Christmas gift(who votes he puts a big red ribbon on our door for me?). I probably wont be posting again until after the move, since I should be packing right now as I type.

quick tips for moving with a toddler:
1. arrange play dates/babysitters during hour periods of time, this allows packing without a "helper" unpacking or packing toys with plates
2. leave them a space to play
3.*if weather permits* let them play outside for a good hour so they will take a LONG nap, nothing says "happy packing" like a sleeping toddler!
4. NEVER...never, underestimate the cyclone ability of a toddler....if you clear out a room totally of stuff, be sure to check it right before you leave for good. *luckily my mom is moving into our place so if we(read Boobman) leaves something, it isn't a big deal.

well Boobman woke up from his nap which signals the end of this post, I hope you enjoyed,and please come back
