A blog about a boy

As many of you already know I am pregnant with a little boy blue. Mr. Wade will be make his appearance the end of March. This has been an interesting experience for me I keep thinking on rough days when nothing sounds good to eat but I have to eat something, I just want to go back to normal. Only to come to the realization that nothing is ever going to be normal again. I couldn't be more excited for Wade to make his arrival. Judging by the ultra sounds he already seems like an active baby.
For those that don't know right now in my pregnancy I am considered high risk. The reasons being is a heart defect as well as other things, the doctors decided to be safe after looking at my past history and put me with a high risk doctor. So far it has been the best thing ever! I get to see him every month and I am collecting lots of picture and videos of him moving around being crazy. Those pictures will be later.
So some fun insights into my life while carrying wade. He loves to eat. I have noticed him (me) wanting more food and getting hungry more often. Sadly I have gained eight pounds. I think four months pregnant and only eight pound that's not bad right? He loves blueberry eggo waffles with milk. I crave that every morning. He also really likes cheese. I am happy to report he finally will let me eat sweets again. For the longest time it wasn't happening but now he is all about Halloween candy and cookies ( now I realize where those eight pounds came from).
I can't feel him moving yet but according to my doctor that is a good thing. She says that he seems like a mover so I should cherish the time and the sleep I have now before I can't feel him.
Now time for the beloved pictures every one wants to see.
1.  Below is the first photo we got of him. Now knowing he was a him he just looks like a floating penguin
 2. This was a big appointment. I had been telling Jake that it was a girl, he would reply and say it was a boy. It even got to the point that he started to believe that it was a girl. This picture is about fourteen weeks along. The doctor was checking his sizing when all of a sudden he turns and just shows up his "business" no shame at all. I look at Jake and he looks at me, thinking is that what I think it is. Finally the doctor said that we had a little boy in our hands! I couldn't believe that we could know so early. She said when it is a boy you know it is a boy. Jake was so excited. I think it took him every thing he had not to jump up and down. 
 3. Finally a picture from today, I am now eighteen weeks pregnant. This baby is crazy he was just sitting on his head. You could see he was trying move himself but couldn't so he was just wiggling like crazy.
  Until next time... maybe I will include a picture of myself by then.

The little blog that could.

You all have been wondering, why does Sam even have a blog she never updates it! I know I have been really slacking and I have come up with some excuses as to why. One I am not very good with words, I don't really know what to say. Two, if you are friends with my on facebook you should know what is happening in my life. Finally three, I don't really have anything fun and exciting to update the world about. So I will give you a update and see if I can keep this up. Probably not but here goes nothing.

First off Jake and I graduate from college in December him in health science and me in child development. Jake and I were lucky enough to have Jake receive a job offer right out of school. So we graduate from school ran home and played with the family over Christmas then moved to sunny San Diego. Where we are now. Jake is working at Occupational Service Inc. I am working at a La Petite as a preschool teacher. We are still getting use to southern California, we have done a lot of exploring.We have found some fun places for people to go to if they come to visit us. I am still learning all the freeways and which ways they go but I am getting better. I do know how to get to the important places like target and in n out so I will survive.

Other then that I feel like we work all week and get to see each other on the weekends, people will tell me: Welcome to adulthood

Jake and I have decided that going to school was a lot easier then have full time jobs but you can't just go to school forever. 

Overall we love each other and we love this new adventure we are on. It is hard to be away from family but that's life. I will try to document stuff that we do and the places we explore so I will have something to blog about.
