Catch up!

To start, happy happy father's day to the love of my life! I realized I kind of did these pictures mixed up. So these are the most recent.
My mom and I took Jeff to the Seager Wheeler Farm for lunch today, it was awesome. I thouroughly enjoyed like 2 bowls of cabbage borscht among other things.
Aiden LOVED all the animals and it was fun to tour around some old buildings and just hang out.

My mom felt like she was back on the farm:) Right mom!
The lunch as I mentioned was awesome, everything was homemade, with yummy waffles with toppings for dessert. So so good.
A little peek at the last couple of weeks. Some particulars you might be wondering, I am due on December 27th, yeah not really the timing we planned, but I am keeping my fingers crossed that I am late.
This has actually been a really challenging pregnancy. Last month I had 2 migraine headaches that completely made me bed ridden for two days. I thought that was a thing of the past, unfortunately, this week they came back with a vengenance and pretty much consumed my entire week. I was finally able to see a doctor who diagnosed me with hormone induced migraines. The bad news is you can't tell when they are going to come, the good news if you call it that, I finally got some medication to stop the vomitting and allow me to eat, but nothing really for the headaches. Its just been really hard for me to have Jeff stay home from work, or have my mom have to help all the time because I literally couldn't do anything. I am so so so thankful for Jeff and my mom and all they have done to just help. This has been a good weekend, with just a dull headache, I can live with that. I am also seeing a really awesome chiropractor that believes she can really help me out by getting my body back in line. I'll take it!
Onto happier things, like my boy, he really makes us laugh a lot lately. His homemade vacuum.
His new fun thing to do!
Quite the showman!
We were able to do the children's festival a couple weeks ago, it was awesome except for getting completely terrentially rained on our walk back to the car.




My other favorite picture from our little photoshoot.
We are looking forward to this weekends church camping trip, and hopefully just keeping it together around here, health wise. Wishing you all a great week!

i ended up in the hospital because of my migraines when i was pregnant with K. what worked really well for me was Pms-Metoclopramide. they said that it was made for upset stomachs but that they found it worked really well for migraines. it's actually what they gave me in my IV when i'd go to the hospital...not sure if that's what they gave you - but thought i'd just let you know! :) here's to feeling MUCH better!

Happy Father's Day to Jeff! I'm glad you all had a fun day! Aiden gets cuter with every post, I think! :) I wish we were closer and I could come help you out...especially since I'm just home all day right now! I hope you'll feel better with the chiropractor and your medicine. Have fun on the camping trip! I hope you have amazing weather! I love you and miss you so much!!

Sorry to hear that things haven't been going so well pregnancy-wise. I know how hard it is to have to depend on those around you to take care of things because you can't. Family is a wonderful thing though and it's great that they are willing to help out. Hopefully the chiropractor will be able to help you feel much better. Glad it was a good father's day still. Mmmmm . . . waffles:)
Aiden is such a cutie - seeing these pictures makes me wish we lived closer! Have a good day!

I love to see pictures of your little cutie - he's looking so grown up!

Sorry to hear you're having such a rough pregnancy - hopefully with the new medication it will be more managable for you. Sounds like you're surrounded by some pretty wonderful people who can help you!

Love the pics of Aiden - what a cutie! I can't believe how big he's getting!

I actually came to check to see if you were pregnant. That's kind of neat that you are. Congrats. Hope you feel better soon.
