20 Weeks!!!

 20 WEEKS (baby and momma)           Aksel (to be determined) Gappmaier

Anybody care to hear me complain? I didnt think so, but im doing it anyway

Ok so Im sure Johannes is so sick of listening to me complain, But seriously the last month has been a little to much for this prego. I thought being pregnant the first time was hard but now with a toddler to take care of the first time around was cake!! seriously tho how do people have all these kids and not end up in the corner rocking back and forth talking to themselves! Everything was going just fine and I thought, wow this pregnancy is going to be great and fly by, and I guess that it has been great, its not the pregnancy that has me running for the hills its the two year old. Little sophie marie has decided that for the last month she wants to be sick, with everything, seriously tho everything. First it starts off with the usual cough and runny nose that goes on for a week then it turns into our old friend that never went away last winter bronchitis, Then for kicks she decides to throw up, acts normal for two days and then the night that daddy comes back into town (I will complain about that later in my post) she decides that she doesnt want him to miss out on all the fun and gives him a good covering in barf for two days. Which he handled like a champ since for some weird reason ever since she was a little tiny one she has always found it comforting to barf all over daddy. ( im not to jealous of this little bond that they have). So when the barfing subsided, the cough and runny nose that was gone for a day came back, and then came the runny butt which is the stage that we are in now. So now we have a cough that is not allowing her to take naps, or sleep at night, add on to that a child so sensitive she throws a fit if you look at her wrong and runny butt, fun. Now on to the Johannes complaint, He is finishing up his last few weeks at his current job and we are grateful for that, now more then ever since the past few weeks I have been a single mom (since he is gone out of town during the week and only home for the weekend) with no relief at the end of the day, no sleep and no sohie nap time, you know its bad when your husband informs you its more relaxing for him to be away at work then to be home. rub it in jerk. And for the icing on the suck cake, I finally got sophie down for a nap without a cough attack and maybe an hour into her nap (which normally she sleeps for 3 hours) the construction workers came today to replace our balcony which is connected to her room and all the noise scared the crap out of her and no more nap time,... so heres for hoping that sophie has gone thru every sickness for the winter this past month and will be healthy for the rest of the winter, ya right.

Good news is we are going to utah in a week (praying for soph to feel better). And I had my 20 week check-up with the little man where they did an extensive ultra sound and they checked inside every organ to make sure its all working properly, And no im not high risk or anything but apparently they do that for everyone out here, I didnt complain. So he is looking pretty perfect so far :)
