So last night I decided to take a picture of my pregnant belly since I didn't do a good job at all during the pregnany.

Yesterday I had my Doctor's appt. and I was 4 cms. So I'm really glad about that!!

This is me and my big pregnacy belly 3 days before my due date!! I'm so excited because my Mom came into town last night so she is here for the delivery. Now we are just all waiting for this baby to decide to come out and play!!

Patrick and I decided to reward Wesley to where ever he wanted to go for a treat because he started using the toto. We asked him if he wanted to go to McDonalds or pizza and of course he chose McDonalds. He had a lot of fun eating and playing in the jungle gym. And this time he didn't get stuck so we didn't have to rescue him!!

For the last month it seems like Wesley has been interested in potty training.

I've heard that it's not the best thing to force it on a child but instead the child will let you know when they are ready to start.

Wesley has been really interested in sitting on the "toto". So we let him do it as much as he would like because I don't want to discourage him.

So yesterday for about 4 hours he kept telling Patrick and I "poo poo change"

{which to Wesley "poo poo" means "diaper" so he wants a diaper change}

and that he wanted to sit on the toto. We continued to put him on the toto over and over again and we both were getting frustrated because he wasn't doing anything.

So finally right before bed I gave it one more attempt.

Well I guess it paid off because he went poo poo in the toto!!!

We were all so excited and Wesley kept clapping his hands and saying "yeah Wesley"

I think he was excited as well.

Sorry this story might be a little TMI but as you can tell we are so excited for our little boy.

I hope this is the start of potty training and no diapers.

I would LOVE to have only one child in diapers and not 2!!

Well so far there is so still no baby!!

I will have to say I don't remember being this uncomfortable, sore and not being able to sleep when I was pregnant with Wesley.

I had a little false alarm this week because I thought I was going into labor. Thursday morning around 4:15 I was having some pretty good contractions. Because of it I couldn't go to sleep because I was a little concerned I was going into labor. I didn't want to wake Patrick to worry him so I went to the living room and watched tv. They soon stopped but I couldn't go to sleep. So I got about 5 hours of sleep that night.

I was excited however because that day I had a Dr's appt. I was still dialted to 2 cms so there wasn't any progression this last week.

My next Dr's appt will be this Thursday and I wouldn't mind one bit if I didn't make it to my next appt. I'm really excited because my mom is coming down on Thursday and staying with us for a week and a half. I feel so blessed to have a mom willing to take time out of her busy schedule to come be with us for awhile.

Both Patrick and Wesley have really been good to me because I'm so pregnant. Patrick helps with laundry and cooks dinner for me too. I have one good husband!!

For Christmas this year we went to my parents house in Susanville. I unfortunetly was sick the entire time that I was up there. But we had a fun time playing in the snow, playing with the dogs, eating way too much food, driving around looking at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve and my highlight, talking to my brother who is on his mission in Uruguay. I didn't take a lot of pictures while we were up there because I forgot my camera charger and I didn't want to take the chance of not getting pictures on Christmas. I actually forgot a lot of things like Wesley's snow boots, gloves and hat as well. My pregnancy brain got the best of me for sure.

Here is Wesley on Christmas morning. Santa brought him Chuck Trucks which he loves!

Opening more presents:
Mom and Dad gave him cars from the movie Cars:

After Christmas, we came back home and had Christmas with Patrick's family in Gridley. Some how Santa put snow in the back of Patrick's truck and we delivered it to our niece and nephew Bryant and Charlize. Our attempt was to make a big snow man but it turned into a giant snow fight instead. Oh well, atleast the kids had fun!!

We finally have 2 weeks and counting!!

The Last two weeks Patrick and I have been busy getting our house in order and getting ready for our new arrival.

Last week I started my weekly Dr. appt visits and I wasn't dialated at all.

This week I was measuring 2 cms!! I'm really excited but nervous at the same time because it all of the sudden it feels really real that we're having this baby soon.

My Mom is coming home today from Southern California today so I'm glad that baby atleast waited for her to get home.

My sister had her baby girl last week so it will be so much fun having cousins so close again!!
