Baby Bodine #3 - On His/Her Way!

We are excited to announce that we are expecting baby #3 at the beginning of May sometime! I'm about 12 weeks along and like the others - I have been sicker than sick! I started throwing up at 5 weeks - so it's been a long 7 weeks so far. I'm hopeful that this baby will be nicer to me and not make me sick too much longer than the first trimester! I've had a lot of people in my ward bringing meals which has been a huge help since I can't even cook right now and Rob's work schedule doesn't allow him to get home until past the girl's bedtime.

I have had quite a few ultrasounds so far with this baby and it's been fun to see how much he/she has grown in a short amount of time. My new doctor here in Colorado has been really proactive with my extreme sickness and I've been going in every 2 weeks to make sure that I'm not losing too much weight or dehydrated. I finally put on a few pounds in the last few weeks so I get to go to monthly appointments again. And have 8 weeks until the next ultrasound (the big gender reveal!)

The ultrasound tech today had a big guess on what she thinks the gender of our baby is - but I'm going to wait until my 20 week ultrasound right around Christmas before I am convinced! Rob thinks we are having all girls. And I haven't had any thoughts on this baby (the other two I knew they were girls) but would be happy with a 3rd girl (since we already have everything and I know what I'm doing) and would be happy with a boy as well. Contrary to what many people think after 2 girls - we are still not TRYING for a boy! Eliza would love another sister but I'm pretty sure she is just excited to have another baby in the house and loves asking me about the baby and how big it is. Chloe doesn't really get it obviously! Just knows that Mommy has been sick a lot and is very concerned whenever I throw up.

Someday I will catch up on the rest of my blogging as well - but this might explain why I'm so behind on life! And if you come over - why my house is so dirty!
