putting on the lbs

So I'm only 22 weeks Iv'e gained 16 lbs and my baby is only 11 inches! I have a feeling the 30 lb weight gain my midwife says I need to stay at is going to be WAY over! I'm over the pickle, tomato, and salt cravings and now want peanut butter and banana sandwiches, star crunch snack cakes, and chocolate milk!

This is my lunch almost every day now for the last week, and sometimes my snack right before bed

This is our peanut butter back up!!! I made my husband go to the store twice since Saturday just for milk cause we've flown right threw it and I'm almost out of the 2 loafs of bread I got Friday

Change in name

Okay so most of our friends and family know that the new baby's name is Emma Lee and hearing this puts EVERYONE in shock "WHAT NO K NAME?"

No! We decided to change things up a bit and hearing Tyler call Kloee Kelsee, and Kelsee say "daddy me Kelsee" I was thankful we are doing this. So oldest to youngest our girl's are

Kaylee Noelle

Kloee Nadine

Kelsee Nicole

Emma Lee

There is still a double "ee" in there somewhere at least

20 weeks

So after 20 weeks I'm 1/2 way there, it's been a long ride so far but progesterone shots are working and I haven't had a contraction in over 2 weeks! YAY!!!

Iv'e gained half the weight my midwife said I should gain

(and know the last trimester ill gain most of my weight guess Chinese food, chocolate swiss rolls, nacho's, hot wings, and icee's have many calories! Oh well I'm on an all you can eat diet and aren't planning to worry about the weight till after the holiday's)

This is my 20 week picture and was able to get another ultrasound picture Thursday

the tech said 100% sure GIRL!!!

(This pic is from my phone sorry so bury)

Reading while sleeping

So recently Kelsee begs, cries, & screams to have a book read to her EVERY night and has learned to trap you but squeezing your neck so you don't get to sneak away once she's asleep so we have learned to "lie" to our poor 2 year old... we tell her we'll be right back and it works!!! This is her reading to her self while sleeping literally!!!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL 2011

My little Kloee still wearing 3T bottoms and 4T tops is 5 and in Kindergarten! This mom is bitter/sweet from this day.

I took her to class today and she told me "okay mom you can go" WHAT?

well at least I got to enjoy 5 full years with her before I was basically pushed out the door.

Kaylee on the other hand is a pro at 1st days and I wasn't expecting her to be nervous at all but I was wrong cause it seemed she didn't want me to go like she wanted guidance! Ahhh poor girl having a new school every year so far (this mom feels bad for not allowing her to keep friends every year) but she has 4 friends in her class from church and know she will be just fine.

Klo on her 1st day of Kinder at her table "doesn't seem scary after all mom you can go"

Kaylee on her 1st day of 2nd grade, when we got her settled in she whispers to me "mom I'm not tall enough for my desk". The things kids worry about in life are so funny... Thank goodness she isn't having to worry about bill's or baby's yet
