Baby #3 12-18 Weeks

I am so excited to be over 18 weeks along. I am so ready to meet this little one!! As much as I am wishing for the next few months to hurry along...I am also trying to cherish every moment with this baby while being pregnant and just enjoying my 2 other little ones while there are still just 2. I feel like when this baby gets here...my time with Tenlee is getting smaller and smaller when I think how fast the next year will go...and she will be ready for school!!! And then there goes Kooper being my baby, I feel like I am going to miss out on so many things that he will do that we enjoyed with Tenlee because of the close age difference with the two little ones. And lastly this is my last pregnancy so I am trying to remember every kick and stretch, the way my body changes into this huge mess, and I am honestly just sad that this little one will be all of my "lasts". I get all sappy when I think of each one of them but I am blaming that on my crazy hormones right now. I honestly am so excited to have 3 little ones and I thank God for how much they have and will continue to bless our lives.

12-14 Weeks

Nausea is MUCH better

Still having times when I just don't feel well throughout the day

Sharp pains off and on
Extremely tired
Felt baby move at 13 weeks (I am pretty sure I felt a tiny kick at 12 weeks)
So far I have gained little over 3# (at 14 week checkup)

14-18 Weeks
Started having some restless leg syndrome issues
15 Weeks-Officially out of all of my jeans and starting to bust out of my some of my shirts
Really started to feel the baby more through out the day and felt it kick my hand at 15.5 weeks
Saw it move from the outside (16 weeks)
Tyler felt it move on Valentines Day
I started having Braxton-Hicks at 16 weeks-Concerned the Dr at first
Really started to feel better around 16 weeks...other than being super tired
Tired around 9:30 and then around 1:30
18 Week checkup-Measuring at 20..so measuring a little big, gained 10 pounds so far, heartbeat was in the lower 140's

With Tenlee I craved more sour things, with Kooper I craved more sweet things and with this one I have been craving both. I had said that my pregnancies were more different than alike with the first two but this one is even more different. Tenlee was by far the easiest pregnancy I have had. Kooper's was a little harder, but definitely easy compared to most women. This baby has by far been the hardest. I also feel like I may be carrying this baby a little higher. When I sit I can feel it closer to my lungs than the other two and at times I have a harder time breathing. When I compare the pictures of all 3 I think I look about the same but it just feels a little higher.

Wanting to eat a lot of Sweet Tea and cheese/crackers

15 Weeks

Kooper Top/Baby #3 Bottom

 Its head looks a little creepy but the tech reassured us that there was just a lot of fluid showing up.
We got to see it stretching both legs and arms, it opened it mouth and we saw its tongue and then we think it might have been sucking on its thumb at the very end. Even though it is my third...it will NEVER get old seeing it!!!

 Boy or Girl?
As soon as we found out the baby was still alive and had a good heartbeat I told Tyler I wanted to know the gender. I was still so scared about loosing it and I just wanted to know gender and have a name for him or her so I could just completely bond with it. But then we decided to just have it be another surprise. I feel like finding out the gender of your baby is one of the only surprises you have after you get engaged and find out you are expecting. I didn't want it to feel any different than the other two.
The tech gets started and asked us if we were finding out or not. Tyler decided he wanted to know. So we decided to just have her print gender revealing pictures out and stick them in an envelope. If we decided to find out later on then we would have the answer.

Kooper is 15 Months Old

12 Months Old

Weighs 23lbs and is 32 inches long (75th and 99th%)

Happy Birthday Kooper Ty! 

We went to Applebee's for supper and then of course had to go to our favorite store ever...Rural King!:) 

 Sissy hurt herself so he gave her a big hug. He does not like 

seeing her cry, he will usually cry right along with her.

13 Months Old

Still a mommy's boy

LOVES his sissy..he cries when she leaves or he notices she isn't here

Still sleeping through the night

Had another ear infection

Got 2 more teeth in..one on each side. (Brings his total to 11)

Still having issues with him being fussy through the day and into the evening

Saying Ma Ma...this made me so happy!!

He is starting to walk!!!! He is still pretty wobbly but he is taking longer steps and trying it a lot more

Drinks a TON of milk..he is now on Vit. D and he can drink almost a whole gallon in a day or two

We finally graduated him from his baby car seat to a toddler seat-He loves it!!!
Ended the month with officially walking on his own....doesn't really crawl much

He loves his blanket

His new favorite thing to do...he saw Tenlee doing somersaults and now does this and loves when you say peek-a-boo while he does it. 

 14 Months Old
OFFICIALLY a walker

LOVES giving mommy kisses and hugs

Had bronchitis again

Got tubes put in 

Got his 12th tooth

Calls Tyler "Da" and me "momma"

Is in love with taking baths

Had bronchitis again along with a bad cold towards the end of the month

Working on tooth #13

Is starting to play with Tenlee-So cute to watch

He has quite the temper...when he gets mad he just lets out this high pitch squeal

His new cheesy smile

 He hasn't had a crazy amount of ear infections but he was having a hard time getting rid of them so we went ahead and met with an ENT doctor and he thought having tubes put in would be his best option. He did wonderful considering he got up super early and couldn't eat or drink anything until after the procedure. He was pretty out of it for about an hour afterwards but after a little nap and seeing his sissy, he was good to go. 

This was late at night after a b-ball game and both kids were round up and not wanting to get dressed. Kooper never wants to lay still while changing/dressing him and that night it was even harder because of how hyper they both were. 

And this is why his nickname is "Monster"!

 Not feeling so good
