Baby-Tole is Two!!

Nicole turned 2 years old on January 23rd. I can't believe how fast time has gone and how fast she has grown up. I get really tearly eyed when I see baby pictures of her, and I'm sure in time I'll get teary eyed when I see her toddler pictures. Here is just a sample of her 2 yr photo shoot I did for her. When I do pictures of other people Nicole loves my little studio, but when I want pictures of her, she gets scared to death of the room. So Greg spent the week before her birthday playing games and puzzles in her "special room" to get her used to it. I let her blow my big softbox light on and off and she loved that. Nicole is so funny about the things that do and do not scare her. Also, thank you Greg for helping me get her dressed and ready and all happy and smiling that fateful Saturday.

So glad to be feeling better!

Tomorrow I will be 24 weeks along and I am so glad to be feeling better! I am now down to throwing up only about 3-4 times a week! Yay!! The first picture is from October when I was on IV therapy...2 hours every night hooked up to an IV bag...not fun. Nicole kept me good company though, as did reruns of "The Office". I call watching that show over and over "research" because certain clips of it come in as a great teaching tool for my Intro To Business students I teach at UVU.

On Feb 5th I went in for another ultrasound. They wanted to check his heart and lips (he was turned the wrong way last ultrasound and they couldn't see). So this time I got a profile picture....how fun and cute! Everything is going along well and healthy. We are so so so blessed! Oh and this morning while I was laying in bed I felt Caleb roll for the first time (he has been kicking for a month, but this was different). It was cool, but kindof creepy and gross! :) This whole pregnancy thing is such an interesting experience!

23 Weeks

Wow! 23 weeks. Time has gone by fast in some ways.....and so slow in others. I'm really nervous for little Caleb to get here. I can hardly handle Nicole, how am I going to handle two?? But I'm so excited for a newborn....a sweet baby that will cuddle and snuggle with me. It is heaven! On a side note: I have to laugh....I was honestly trying to smile a real smile in this picture and when I uploaded it I noticed how nervous/scared/constipated I look. I have the hardest time having pictures taken of myself.
