It's a BOY!

Today I found out I'm having a boy....again! I was a little bummed at first, but I'm getting used to the idea. I think it will be good for Bryson. He needs someone to rough house with. It's weird to picture myself with 2 boys {three counting my husband}. I'm going to be majorly outnumbered. In the ultrasound they found a few bad things though. The baby has two cysts on it's brain {one on each side}. They say it's pretty common but they are usually gone by 18 weeks. I have to have another ultrasound in 4 weeks and if they aren't gone by then, then they'll be worried. So, we really hope they go away. Also, I've been having a lot of pain below my rib cage {for the past month}. So, I told them about it. They did an ultrasound on the area and discovered that there is something wrong with my right kidney. They didn't give me much info about it, but I saw the ultrasound and it didn't look good. The tech doing it got all quiet and didn't want to say much ....which only freaks you out more! They are sending me to a kidney specialist. SCARY! I'm really nervous about it. So, I left the doctors office a little overwhelmed and confused. I hope everything is ok with me and the baby. I'm having a lot of complications with this pregnancy. When I was 8 weeks along I had a lot of pain on the lower right side side of my stomach so they did an ultrasound and found a cyst leaking fluid into my stomach {so painful, by the way}. Crazy, huh? I didn't have any problems with Bryson so it's really weird. I'll be glad when the baby comes out safely.

    Hey...things have changed a bit. I am only going to be down from Saturday late night until Monday AM, so we won't be able to get together. I just got a new job, which I am jazzed about, but I have to work next week now to help them out before I leave. I am gonna email Hilarie on Myspace to let her know, but if you talk to her sooner you can tell her. It will have to be next time, probably around Christmas/New Years :(

    Congratulations on another little boy. Bryson seems like a doll - so you can't go wrong.

    I hope everything turns out okay with your kidneys and the baby.

    Congrats on the little boy! I was hoping my second would be a girl and it was a boy too- best thing ever! There is nothing cuter than your two boys being the best of friends... Sorry to hear about the scares and pain, techs aren't ever allowed to tell you anything which I know does scare you. I went through something similar. Will keep you in my prayers... keep us updated :-)

Bryson's Store

Image
We didn't have Family Home Evening last night, so we had it tonight. We made a little store for Bryson to sell candy from {it was his idea this morning}. He was in HEAVEN! Dad brought boxes home from work, bought candy on the way home, then came home and we all made it together. The huggies box is his cash register. And, we used fake money from one of our board games. We'd give Bryson the fake money and then he'd give us some candy. It was SO funny. He kept saying, "This is a fun activity!" {He picked this saying up from grandpa!} Here's the front of his store. Here's the back view of his store. Here's daddy buying his candy. When Bryson thought we had boughten enough candy, he told me to take his spot so he could buy some candy. He's not stupid! Here's a video clip of one of daddy's transactions with Bryson. It's so funny....you have to watch it!

Break Dancer

We went to a wedding on Thursday night. It was a Argentine wedding so they had a ton of music and dancing. Bryson was in heaven. We couldn't get him off the dance floor! I recorded this video off of my phone so the quality isn't very good {because of the low lighing in the place}. But, hopefully, you'll still get the idea. Everyone was break dancing inside a circle. I could tell Bryson wanted to go out on the floor so bad. So, I told him to go do it. And he did. That part is at the very beginning of the video. Then, he went out and danced with everyone else. He had some good moves. I couldn't get too much on video because people kept walking in front of me. But, this should be enough to make you laugh .

Bryson's Girlfriend

Image
Bryson has a little girlfriend at church. They are so cute together {they even look alike}. They stick up for each other in nursery. If a child picks up a toy that Bryson had been playing with, she takes it away from them and tells them it's Bryson's. She is also his first kiss. You go boy!Her dad told us that last sunday she was excited to go to church. She said, "I get to see Bryson today. He's so hansome!" This morning Bryson told me that he loved her, and that they were going to get married in the temple, and give kisses and love. Too cute. We always have to let them play together after church is over because we can't seperate them. So, us parents just stand there and laugh at them. Yesterday they had a fun during their "play time". The were splashing each other with water from the drinking fountain. It was pretty funny. We hope they'll really get married. We'll have to keep in touch with her parents. Ha ha.
