Hey ladies, I've been slacking on the replies and posts for over a month, but I promise I'll be far more active now! A lot has happened lately- Mark started with his new trucking company which kept him away for 6 long, miserable weeks, he came home over the weekend long enough to attend my cousin's wedding (which I was in so I didn't see much of him), and is now back for another 7 weeks. On the Brightside, he realized how much he hated being away from me for so long and doesn't want to miss out on anything when it comes to his child that he is transferring departments so he will be home every weekend, guaranteed, and likely 2-3 nights during the week Trucking has been the best and worst situation for us thus far, I constantly miss him, but have never felt closer to him at the same time.
As for baby news, I've made it to my 18th week, and can't believe how fast it is going! I swear next thing I know I'll have a tiny newborn in my arms. At my last appointment, 3 weeks ago, I was able to hear my little one's very strong heartbeat, which was such a relief! I felt the very first kicks at 17 +4 and have been feeling them every night since. I go in to find out whether we're having a little MaKinley Aurora or Brantley Michael on July 8th. I still have a strong feeling it is a boy, but have been having dreams of a little girl with Mark's eyes, my nose, his Italian skin tone, and long brown, curly hair I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
I'm excited to get back to getting to know you ladies!
