OK - so I do have a legitimate reason for not posting. I have not taken any new pictures of my kids for a month and a half. (Hopefully they forgive me when they're older). My excuse? Morning (more like all day) sickness (add in LOTS of fatigue). Yep! We have our first SURPRISE pregnancy!!! Due date: Sept 1. So I'm 12 weeks. Up until this week I have not been too keen on this pregnancy - bad timing and all. We are uninsured until June 5. We will need a bigger car to fit 3 carseats in the back. We make $100 too much each month & so don't qualify for Medicaid (though I found out yesterday we WOULD have qualified if we lived in Montana) etc...
So ANYWAYS I found this place in Billings, MT (only 2 hours away) that does ultrasounds for FREE. That sure beat the $500 they want for an ultrasound in Cody (small town - OBs can charge what they want, b/c there is no competition).
I have to say that this time around getting the ultrasound really helped me bond with the baby. It's amazing to me that just seeing a tiny little head and arms and fingers can melt my heart that way. So maybe I'm OK with this whole thing.
Being sick still stinks, though.

sorry to hear you're feeling so sick and tired, but hopefully it will be gone soon. I'm about 15 weeks and still SUPER tired!
I know what you mean about the ultrasound. I never had one early on with Eleanor(just at 20 weeks), but they did one when I was like 10 weeks this time and it was so great to see the little one and get excited when it feels so far away!
Congrats! I didn't realize that you are only 2 hours from Billings...we are 3 1/2 hours from Billings. We should meet up some time!
Congratulations! That is awesome! I sure know how the sick thing goes, hopefully it doesn't last too long! Good luck with all, its good to see you are alive!
Oh my gosh I am so excited for you!!! I was just looking at the pictures and told josh it is about time they have another and then i came upon this!!! Congrats!
