Where have I been?

I just noticed my last post was on August 18th...it's now October 12th. Well that's because on August 14th I found out I was having another one of these...
(looks like I got that triathlon in just in time)
Hooray for Lind Baby #3!!!

I'm now 13 weeks along, but needless to say (of course I will though) the past 6ish weeks have not been great. A lot of naps, messes not getting cleaned up, children watching way more than the recommended amount of television and many MANY baths have been the story of my life as of late. However, I did squeeze in a few fun times during the course of my ill-feeling 1st trimester, which I will try to catch up on and post in the next few weeks. In the meantime I'm just enjoying my desire to eat again and counting my blessings that the sick feelings are fading. Pretty soon I will be 100% in my golden 2nd trimester just in time for the Holidays! What a perfect time of year to be in your 2nd trimester. You feel great & you're already showing so you can eat all the yummy holiday food without having to suck in afterwards. LOVE IT! 

(So so SO very sorry to those of you out there who are sick the entire 9 months. My hat goes off to you and if it were me I'd probably have stopped after Jack. I can barely stand it for 2 months and that's with the help of Zofran.)

Jeff and I are very excited to welcome a new little person into our family on April 19th (or sometime around then...preferably a bit early ;)) and while neither of us care whether it's a boy or a girl Jack keeps telling us, "I want a brother just like me!" Only time will tell what the sex is, but I'll be sure to announce it as soon as we find out.

Crystal said...

wow and whoa! congrats! three kids four and under is crazy town, I am not going to sugar coat it. napping while your kids watch 3 hours of netflix in the afternoon is completely recommended by me. That is how we made it through. I'm happy for you guys, and also sympathetic.

Congratulations!!! Wonderful news. Any expansion of the Lind Dynasty will always go well with the Stices. The more Linds the merrier as far as we're concerned. SO impressed and proud of you for getting that triathalon in, Mindy. You = Mamma rockstar.
