We Have Exciting News!
Yes… it’s true! We are expecting Baby #5, lovingly referred to as Baby Bean from here on out on Mustard Seed Adventures! J is working on a video to share the kids’ reactions. I’m happy to say, everyone is now excited (you’ll notice a little apprehension from Bubby when the video is published). Bean is due in November of this year and we are anxiously anticipating finding out the gender in a few weeks! How far along? 14 weeks Total weight gain/loss: Honestly have no idea… Maternity clothes? Yes, mainly maternity jeans/shorts. I can still wear most of my tops and dresses, but I have bought some for in a few weeks when…

Family Update
Yes, yes, another LONG overdue family update. It feels like ever since we moved to Tennessee that we’ve been going at high speed without a break in sight. We are constantly on the move, working on projects, there’s never any rest and this momma is BEAT! J is doing great at his job, it’s of course stressful and very busy, but he seems to have a great staff. And even though the company is selling all of their nursing homes this year, we have high hopes that whatever company takes over will be exactly what the nursing facility and staff need to continue caring for their residents. J is also…

Those Last Firsts
When J and I got married we knew we wanted to start trying for a baby right away. We wanted a family but we weren’t sure how many children we wanted yet. I was pretty set on having a large family while J was set on just two or three. I think it’s evident who won that battle! I was excited about first seeing those red lines pop up on that first positive pregnancy test. And hear our baby’s heartbeat for the very first time. Feel the soft kicks and nudges in the second trimester, and the harder more pronounced movements in the third. Holding that sweet baby for the…

Baby #4 – 28 & 30 Weeks Update
I’m behind! AH! So, when I was 26 weeks (which you’ll notice that update is missing as well), I came down with a stomach bug. It was AWFUL. I’ve never been so sick in my life, pregnancy makes tummy bugs terrible. So we didn’t even get a photo that week. I am going to share my 28 week photo and my 30 week photo (from this week!) and just give an update for this week. Poor Bear just isn’t getting all the photos and updates like the other kiddos did. Sorry buddy! How far along? 30 weeks Total weight gain/loss: 3lbs Maternity clothes? Yep. With some LLR thrown in as well. Stretch marks? Same old…

Baby #4 – 24 Weeks Update
How far along? 24 weeks Total weight gain/loss: 2lbs as far as I know Maternity clothes? Yep. With some LLR thrown in as well. Stretch marks? Same old ones I’ve had since Boogie! Sleep: I had been sleeping well, and while I do sleep I’ve been having some CRAZY dreams so I’m not sleeping restfully. Best moment this week: Finally feeling Baby Bear move a lot more, and J actually got to feel him once too! This took much longer this pregnancy despite having an anterior placenta every single pregnancy. Movement: See above 😉 Food cravings: Tacos – from a very specific authentic Mexican taco truck in town. LOL! Gender: Boy Labor signs: None. Belly button in or out? In Wedding rings on or off? On,…
