Long overdue update





Hey y'all! Okay, I know it has been FOREVER since I've posted anything on here. I apologize. Life has just been crazy busy and my blog has been the furthest thing from my mind. I'm sure you know how it is. :) Anyway, here's a little update on our lives. Olivia turned two in December. We had her party at Thomas Gymnastics. She had such a good time there. We found out after Thanksgiving that we are expecting our second child. Baby Keaton is due the end of July (right now, the due date is July 29). We are extremely excited! So far, this pregnancy has been very different than Olivia's was. Not to mention, it's a little bit of an adjustment having to continue to be a mommy even when I don't feel good. I went last week to try and hear the heartbeat and they couldn't hear it for medical reasons, so I am scheduled for an ultrasound next Monday (I will be 12 weeks) to make sure things are okay, and to get a more accurate due date. So far, the only problems I've had (other than morning/all day sickness) is my progesterone being low. We are hoping Monday's appointment goes well and we get some good news. :)

God continues to amaze us every day in the life of Olivia and all that she is learning to say and do. She has a big personality for such a small girl. She does not meet a stranger, which could present a problem in the future. And she is very open about giving kisses - to anyone... We are also working on that, lol. We are starting to potty-train her and that is going well at daycare and not so well at home, but it's a work in progress. We've told her that mommy is going to have a baby. She tries to pull up my shirt and look for the baby. LOL! I asked her if she wanted a brother or a sister... she said "i wanna bruddersister". I'm not so sure she's getting both, but we'll see, lol! She's talking really well. We get a lot of compliments on how well she is forming her words and her sentences. :) Anyway, it's an adventure every day in the world of Olivia and all her awesomeness/craziness.
Until next time.
With all our love,
Jen, Brandon, & Livy
