It has been forever!

So with teaching full time in a split class, being pregnant, having a toddler, and taking a grad class, I have WAY slacked on the blogging. Let me catch up.

Brayden just had a seriously scary episode this week while on fall break. He woke up one morning and wouldn't get up- after lots of tests they concluded he had a seizure from dehydration. SCARY! Other than this crazy scary incident- he is doing great. He is almost 16 months old. He is running everywhere. He talks all the time. His words are: Pa, Mom, Da, hot, up, basketball, Nanna, Gee (Garrett), ball, shoe, e-i-e-i-o, b-i-b-l-e, no. He can point to anyone in the family if you ask him where someone is. He still doesn't sleep fantastic at night. He is transitioning from taking two naps to one- sometimes he takes two great ones and other times not. He likes to yell no and throw tantrums when something doesn't go his way. He also likes to love and hug and snuggle. What a sweet boy. He loves the outside.

We had a check-up for Baby Beckett #2 a few weeks ago. The doctor moved my due date up because the baby is measuring big so we are now at April 16th and 13 weeks pregnant. I have been majorly sick this time as well, and really tired. The medicine has been ineffective at times, so I am still below weight, but am actively trying to gain. We find out I think around the end of November if Brayden will have a brother or sister.

Drew and I are doing well. I am in grad school, and he is doing fantastic as his new job as a manager at the Health Department. He tries hard to help out and undestand how tired I am, and he is great with Brayden.

I will try to post more often. Promise. :)

I, too, have not blogged in forever! Glad that life is good. I cannot imagine how busy you all are. I pray you start gaining soon. We need to see some belly pics!
