the beginning

ok, after being pursuaded by everyone else rad blogs, i have decided to make one for us.
little update for everyone.

Morgan, currently(still) working for a major video rental corporations corp office, and moving up in the ranks!(we hope) enjoying his days off immensly, and trying very hard to talk me into buying a Wii for "the family" :) and his "THE Moustache" is coming in mighty fine. i love him dearly!

Addy, is almost two and a half. and HUGE she has grown a whole inch in 4 months. she is almost 40 freakin lbs too! and so smart. not to brag, but this is my blog and i CAN brag all i want! she knows all her colors and shapes, can count to twenty, and knows her alphabet. can sight recognize about half of the numbers and about a third of the letters. she REALLY wants to learn how to read. she is currently addicted to TV and thats something i am working on getting her unhooked from. tho she never watches anything age innapropriate. her current obsession is "Santer" and christmas, something as Pagans, we dont do. So she is getting her santa and xmas fix at my moms when we visit, and we are celebrating Solstice with a great party at a friends house.

Tiffany, pregnant. about 8weeks4days along. my little fetus is about the size of a cherry right now. the nausea is getting a little better, but i am still drop dead exhausted most of the time, and my joints are already starting to loosen up, making getting cofortable VERY difficult. my breasts have started to grow and change and become VERY sore, sensitive, and sometimes painful, it gives me hope that BFAR(BreastFeedingAfterReduction)ing this time will go MUCH smoother. and my stomache muscles have already gone to flop, not that they were super tight before, but now i couldnt tighten my tummy if i tried. now that my body has gone fullterm and had a baby once before it just kicks into gear and KNOWS what to do.
I feel so very lucky to have such a wonderful husband to cook dinner and wash dishes while i feel like puking all over the place. he ROCKS! we are planning on a homebirth in our apartment with an inflatable birth tub filled with soothing water, attended by the rockinest homebirth midwife in the area. i feel strong and confident in my body and its ability to birth the child that is growing inside of my womb. go VBAC!!!

Morgiffany, the fetus. temporarily named until s/he is born. currently about the size of a cherry, with fingers, toes, wrists, ankles, knees, elbows, the works. hir(him/her) little heart has been beating for a while now, and its moving around. but i wont be able to feel the movements for quite some time. S/he is already loved SO much by hir mommy, and daddy and big sister.

so thats the update for us. more to come as changes happen.
