It's Been a Long Time

   Yes, Yes, Yes, it has been an enormous amount of time since my last post.  Well, needless to say I am back!  So much has happened since my last little entry about Payton.  As most of you know we are expecting  Baby Gundry #2 and we are so thrilled that he will be joining us! Yes, you read correctly, if you did not know, we are having a boy and that just made Eric even more thrilled about the whole thing.  Dreams of sports and playing catch are dancing in his head already!  I for one am just excited about having both. Payton  is really into the whole thing. She always tells me that she would like to take the baby out and hold him, but we can put him back. I of course had to explain that he needs to grow and can't come out until January.
   At this point I am now 23 weeks and 4 days. I feel much larger this time around.  I do have gestational diabetes which is definitely difficult when all I want are Oreos and soon to be Halloween candy. And let's not forget how much I love french fries. But, it's a blessing in disguise, it keeps me from gaining more weight than I would want to.  Other than that I feel great, just the normal pregnancy stuff so far.  My back is starting to hurt more, my feel are sore at the end of the day, and i'm very exhausted when I get home from a full day with 5 year olds.
   As for Pay, she is now 2 1/2 and all talking a mile a min. and is as girly as a girl can get. She is  so smart it just amazes me:) I'm so proud and lucky to be her mama. She has developed quite the sense of humor and think she is just so funny.  She is completely potty trained and now sleeps in her toddler bed! The only thing we are working on is not wearing a pull up to bed, we are basically there...It's just me having to bite the bullet and do it! Haha!
   Eric has started a new job and it finally seems to be getting under way.  He's been very busy with the job, school and his new found hobby of Triathlons!

Here are a few photos of me during the pregnancy thus far... As I said before, I feel much bigger this time around!....
6 weeks
19 weeks   definitely showing belly at this point

What a cute belly! It's nice to see you're updating your blog. Congrats on Pay finally being potty trained... it's always a relief when that happens!
