Maybe I will just give an update...
My Mom and bro just left for Mexico for 6 WEEKS! What will she be doing there you ask? She will be taking care of this-my Gpa and Gma's business. I already miss her :( Thank goodness for the internet and webcams. We watched my family's dog so that my Dad could drive them to California, and I am soooo tired! They have a little miniature pinscher, and he is really such a great dog. He is really mellow (most of the time), but he had a rough first night with us. He gets separation anxiety- just like a little baby- so he woke up multiple times crying. Last night he did much better, but he is on Utah time, so he got up early and wanted to play. Of course, as soon as Nathan hears him, he wakes up too. So I have been up so early the past two mornings. Anyway he is gone now, and we won't have to watch him until my Dad goes to Mexico for a week in a little while.
Everything else is going fine. I have gained 22 pounds and I still have like 15 weeks left! I couldn't believe it when I stepped on the scale. I thought for sure it must be broken. I don't know where the weight is- everyone says my belly is so small.
(Almost 26 Weeks)
I was underweight to begin with, so I am trying not to freak out too much. I just hope the weight comes off as fast as it did when I had Nathan. I am hoping for another big baby too. I went shopping for baby sister over the weekend. I had some bday cash to spend and there was a nice sale at Mervyn's. I got SO MUCH PINK! I love it! I decided after I got home, that maybe I should make a list and stick to it for the remainder of my baby shopping adventures.
Today Nathan helped me start to set up sister's room. By the way, we do have a name picked out already, but I think I will wait a little longer before revealing it...those of you who already know...Shh, please. I had to do some serious scrubbing to get the white bedding looking new again, but it looks great thanks to Oxi Clean. I also switched from Downy to Snuggle softener, and Oh My it smells so much better! Tyler probably thinks I have lost it, because after doing laundry yesterday I just kept saying "Smell this..." Anyway, the baby's room smells so good now because of the sheets.
Nathan kept asking all day "Can I help?" so I had to let him. He helped me do so much work around the house. And this is what happened at 7:30 tonight. What can I say, I am a slave driver. (He missed his nap waiting for his Papa to come over, so that may have something to do with it too)
He was playing with Tyler one minute and the next he was out on the floor. I sure love this kid. Well this post ended up being really rambly. Thanks for reading!

Blogging rut. I have so much to post it's discouraging. I don't seem to have any time lately.
I'm so excited that you're setting up the baby's room! Post a picture when it's all done so we can see how cute it looks with the curtains you made.
Madelyn falls asleep on the floor all the time. I guess I need to pay more attention to her..
PS. We all need to take a vacation to your grandma's resort. Seriously.
Your belly is so cute! Underwight... You suck! haha Nathan looks just like Josh to me! I dont know the name and I want to. Email me!

What a cute pregnant belly! I don't know where you could possibly be hiding 22 pounds!
22 pounds... more like 2! I think you double typed the 2 on accident. I'm interested to see how much it'll be at my next appointment. Last time I had only gained 3 pounds so far. I'm sure that number will be like a million times more now! I want to hear the baby's name SO SO SO bad, email it to me and I promise I won't tell. I'll even tell you what 2 we have it narrowed down too.... It's HARD coming up with names.

I was the same way with this last pregnancy. Only I slowed way down at the end. Don't worry about it..your body and the baby need it to be healthy and also to provide for good nursing in a few months. You look amazing! You probably need another 20 to even look prego.
You look INCREDIBLE!! I love being pregnant, but I would love it even more if I looked as good as you!
You poor thing i would hate to be underweight?! Seriously you suck. Your like the skinniest prego girl i've ever seen. You better have 8 kids just for that reason.
Just as long as you don't make fried food, we'll be okay. Just make something healthy. We still eat food. Look at me getting all picky about what YOU cook when you have US over.
Hey Monica,
I am sending out invites for a baby shower and I don't have your info. Please email me at daynalundin@yahoo.com with all the details. Thanks and I hope to see you there. Luv ya!
oh, i can't wait to hear the name! i won't say anything bad about it if it isn't me favorite:) imo, people should keep their opinions about names to themselves! ha ha!
You look so dang cute. I didn't even look that good with Ella, and she is my first.
How cute do you look?!?!?! I'm glad to see you're doing so well! Miss ya!
Thanks for the update. It seems like we haven't seen each other too much lately. It is always nice to hear what is going on. By the way, you look great. You must be having a big baby.
So I LOVE the name... Jon and I can't decide yet. The second we narrow it down and pick maybe one or two, then a day or so later one of us decides we hate it. I swear she is never going to have a name. We really like Rylie for a long time, but have now decided that it sounds too much like "Retlee" (what my crackpot sister named her kid). If you have ANY suggestions please let me know.
oh and I don't think I could ever switch from Downy,i'm too scared it's the best. Tide + Downy = Perfect Laundry.
