Girls Girls Girls

So since we have found out that we are having a girl I have had a lot of thoughts that go through my head. 


I am a little stressed about a couple things...


- I CANT raise myself! Or anyone remotely close to the emotionally, whiney, crazy, dramatic child I was. I need to start thanking my mom daily for raising me!!
- Elementary: mean girls, insecurities, being left out and drama!
-Junior high:  everything mentioned above but only worse and cheerleading or dance try-outs
- High school: everything mentioned above only worse and with a car and a boyfriend (not if I have anything to do with it!)
- An older brother with friends... in the same house as his younger sister with friends (but unfortunately only 23 months apart!)... oh I am not so naive, don't even think I don't see the immediate danger in that!  
- WESTON is so much FUN!! I love having a little dude that is so happy and relaxed (for the most part).  Boys really are so fun and he does the funniest things all the time and girls well they come with DRAMA! haha 


But in all seriousness I am excited to meet this little bean and girl shopping well lets be honest is a lot more fun because you can accessorize (bows, bracelets, etc)  I am excited to get my little girl so one day if I need to be taken care of she will take me in so I won't have to go to a nursing home haha.  (I only think of those things because of where I work) I know I will love her so much and Robby will be such a great father to a little girl!!   I am ready for the battle of "this doesn't match" or "I need the expensive jeans not the cheap ones" or "I wish we were rich like my friend ....." or "why can't I go to the movie with the boys, you don't even understand."  These are all these I have said to my mother a time or two. But one day she will love me!

It's a GIRL

We were finally able to find out the sex of this baby.  I knew it was a girl all along so it wasn't really a surprise to me more of a "I knew it". I have weird, cool, creepy, mothers intuition.  I am 2 for 2 now so maybe I really can feel when I need to have children and what they are.  With Wes we were not planning at all and didn't want a child but I kept thinking of my little boy, had spiritual experiences and when I found out I was prego I thought "this is my little guy" and I was right!! Before I got pregnant with this pregnancy I new it was time to have our little girl. So now that she is a girl, I must have good mothers intuition.  We got 3 different views of this baby is the ultrasound that it was a girl.  Right as we were ending the ultrasound she immediately closed her legs again, she is so modest already!! Robby always jokes and says he didn't want little girls and that he only made boys so when he called his mom to tell him the news she asked if he was okay and when we told one of his sisters she asked the same thing "is Robby okay with that?"  and YES he is excited, little does he know that when he holds his little nieces a soft, tender side comes out in him that I don't think he realizes. He will be a great dad to a little girl.  After we told Wes what were were having he looked at me and said "GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL GIRL!" So I think he is excited although I bet he would have loved a brother.  The names we like are Brightyn and call her Bryn or Mallory.  It will probably be either one of those names. 

Baby #2...

Wednesday the 22 I wake up all excited to find out the gender of baby number 2!!! I workout, eat, drink some orange juice and off I go to the Doctors office!! The Dr comes it and is like lets take a look at what your having...Every position that this baby was in makes it impossible to tell the sex of the baby.  The baby was on its stomach, legs semi-crossed and the cord was in the way as well.  He gave it a pure guess and said Boy. So baby number two still remains a mystery!!! I have felt that it was a girl this entire time but if it is a Boy that would be fun too! They would be almost exactly two years apart so they would be in the same season clothes so that would make it nice on the wallet but a girl would be fun too! Robby still strongly believes he doesn't make girls but knows that he will have a girl one day..makes sense?? Better luck next time!!

Big Boy

My little baby is not a baby anymore! I can't believe he is almost 18 months! Feels like yesterday when he would cuddle me and not move, now to get a kiss from him I have to bribe him with fruit snacks! Wes has the funniest personality.  If he is being naughty and Robby tells him no or to stop he gets the biggest frown on his face and cries but if I tell him no he just makes this face at me!! What a little stink, I can't help but laugh sometimes! 

 On February 2nd I had to work and Robby was working so I dropped him off at a good friends so she could watch him and an hour later she brought him to my floor at the Hospital with a cut on his forehead. I cried not because he was cut or anything but because February is the month where we don't have any insurance because we are in between. Just our luck, so the nurses at my work were so kind and cleaned it for me and basically taped it together and let me take all these supplies home! It is healing nicely and there shouldn't be to big of a scar! 

 WESTON loves Tangled!! It is the funniest thing! I have tried to see if he will watch Cars, Lion King, or something more "manly" but he doesn't care for them at all! He loves this show.  He must have a crush on Repunzel and he will probably like blondes with long hair when he grows up! He will dance, clap, and cheer on Ryder! If I need to study and if Wes is being needy I will put this on and he starts to laugh and clap because he knows what I am doing. (I hope I am not stunting his development but there are times where I need to study) 

We find out the sex of BABY #2 this Wednesday so that should be fun!!

A fun Christmas surprise!

I have no pictures of this Christmas. I forget my camera every time and thankfully my mom always has her camera ready to go so I have pictures but not with me.  This Christmas I was really excited to announce to my family that baby Welling #2 is on its way! I had my sister in law help me make a shirt that said big brother on it and I also put the ultrasound picture in an envelope.  We were with my family on Christmas Eve so I told them Weston had a present for them.  When they opened it they were so excited! They screamed! It was so fun to surprise them.  With Robby family we had Weston wear the shirt that said Big Brother on Christmas Day and they were equally as excited! Yeah for pregnancy! I really didn't think I would get pregnant this quick. I got my IUD out on October 10th and got pregnant November 7th.  We are very excited and can't wait to meet this little boy or girl.  I have been soooo sick this pregnancy.  With Wes I was sick here and there and this time around I have been sick all day long sometimes and I throw up a lot more, sometimes its 3 times a day so it has been rough.  But I am thankful!! I will find out the sex around the end of February.  Overall Christmas was very fun and a great time to remember the birth of Jesus Christ! I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!! 

*oh so you know how you here stories where little kids will know the sex of the baby or know that their parents are pregnant?  Well Wes knew I was pregnant!! Before I found out I was pregnant Wes came up to me while I was laying down and pulled up my shirt and started to kiss and give hugs to my stomach and he kept saying "looooove".  I looked at Robby and said I must be pregnant, I took a test the next day and I was!! He has never done that before and hasn't done it since so I think in that moment he knew I was pregnant with his brother or sister!! Robby mom said it was his way of communicating that he knows he will be a big brother!! 

Halloween

Halloween came up so fast this year. I had great intentions of getting together a great costume but I just ran out of time.  My first idea was Weston was going to be a Bee and I was going to be a flower and then Rob was going to be the Bee Keeper but we ran out of time...But it was a lot of fun.  We went to Rob's sisters house because they give out the best treat ever! Homemade spud-nuts (donuts) They are divine and of course  Wes loves to see his cousins. It was a good Halloween and hopefully next year we will be a little more dressed up.

Baby Oh Baby

So its time for another Welling baby!! Its crazy I know.  About a month before I got pregnant with Weston I would ask Robby if it was time to have a baby and he would always say "no" and I would agree. Not time for a baby.  Well I would keep having this feeling that it was time for our little boy to come. I would have dreams about a little boy and I would always talk about boy names to friends and boy things.  But both me and Robby just ignored our feelings to have a baby and well the story is history and he came anyway.  When I found out I was pregnant I was 99 percent sure it was my little boy that I had kept dreaming about and thinking about.  We just love him to peices!!

So... about a month or two ago I had a dream about having a baby and have been thinking we needed to have a baby again this time I feel like its a girl..(I know I am creppy) But I really just want to finish school before I have another baby its already complicated enough.  I mentioned to Rob about a month ago "want to have another baby?" He was like "no" and I am like ya I think we should wait.  Well school started and I just keep having these feelings to have another baby but I just decided to keep them to myself because I thought I was crazy.  School is pretty intense this semester and when I get into the nursing program it will only get worse. So I made a final decison in my head to NOT have another baby till I am done.  Just as I had made the decision I got a call from a nurse at work to come in and get my second round of Hep B shot. (Its required).  So its the first time I met this nurse and I was just asking to her about her nusring and blah blah.  Well she said that when she went through nursing school she had TWO children and also had to work full time and watch kids on the side of that.  She said that going through nursing school with kids is 100 percent do-able as long as you have a dedicated dad and husband who will support you all the way through..Well thats Robby right there.  So then began the thoughts of having a baby.  I still didn't say anything to Robby because I wanted to see if these feelings wents away.  Well one Sunday Robby went to church by himself.   He later told me that when he was sitting in church he looked at this little girl and had a feeling come to him that said "It is time to have another baby!" When Rob told me this I cried because I was happy and mad all at the same time. I don't really want another kid right now but I am happy to know that we are both having these feelings about our little baby.  So....there is no point ingoring it now. We ignored the feeling with Weston and he came anyway so I am getting off birth control and are going to start trying.  We have faith that the Lord knows what he is doing:)  This past conference was another answer to our feelings as well.  Several talks about having families and having children and not waiting till your finacially ready or done with school.
