Catching Up!

Ok, Ok. I do realize I am way behind in blogging and for that I apologize. It is funny, I am not even sure people read this - until I stopped. I got about 5 people complaining about the lack of blog posts recently.

We have been very busy and I will try to get caught up on pictures soon.

We had a wonderful Christmas celebration with my family in Rockwall. However we spent the next day at urgent care; Nate had an ear infection and the croup.

We have had a bid accepted on a new house! It is in "short sale", which I am finding actually translates to "long wait". We have had all the inspections and appraisals, everything is checking out fine so we are hoping to move mid-Feb and should have plenty of room for everyone to visit. So start making those travel plans now! And pray our home sells quickly.

We spent New Years Eve in Jamaica Beach with the McMurrays and some friends from church. I can hardly believe it is 2010. Nate found an unknown love for playing the slot machines! It was fun.

And the big news for our family is that we are expecting baby #2 at the end of July. Today I have decided I am calling this one "cookie" for the time being....because I am tossing my cookies on a daily basis (no fun).

So let me answer the typical questions for you:
Yes, it was planned - again, it happened a little sooner than expected.

Ted really wants a girl, so for his sake, I hope it is a girl; however I have always pictured myself with all boys. So really, we will be happy either way.

Yes, we will find out the sex when we can (I am way too impatient to wait!).

This is a COMPLETELY different pregnancy. With Nathaniel I was so tired the first trimester and had an uncanny sense of smell. I occasionally got nauseous, but only threw up one time (and that was because I took a vitamin on an empty stomach). This one I began throwing up around 6 weeks and have continued the trend, multiple times a day. I am pretty miserable right now. I am hoping the second trimester will bring much needed relief. I have never been so thankful for my husband who is taking on all the housekeeping and parenting roles like a champ.

Right now I am about 11 weeks along.

And that, my dear friends is the main reason I have not been blogging. I can hardly find the energy or non-puke moment to rock my baby to sleep, much less get anything else done. I will get caught up someday!

So keep us in your prayers. Ted starts a new job Monday, we should move in Feb and have baby #2 in July....2010 promises to be a busy year for the Yancy Clan!
