12 Weeks

I decided to do a monthly post of my pregnancy. I didn't do this with Ben and really wish I would have. I'm not really the kind of person who is pumped about showing off their belly :) But here we go!

I am 12 weeks and the baby is about the size of a lime! I had a Dr's appointment today and it went very well!! I got to hear the baby's heartbeat again, it sounded beautiful at 159 beats per minute... the nurse let me listen for a while :) I have lost 6lbs, I wasn't suprised since I've been so sick. The Dr said I should start feeling better real soon... hopefully! My blood pressure was perfect so the medicine is working which is great!

The Big Blizzard of 2011

Last Monday at around midnight it started sleeting and mixed with that was a little something the meteorologist called THUNDER SLEET! (it scared me to pieces-haha) After the sleet came the snow, snow, snow, and more snow! It was a blizzard, literally! And when it was all over we had around 15 inches of snow here in town.

Tuesday the wind and snow was so cold that it was impossible to play in. We all three just hibernated inside. Wednesday Matt started clearing out the driveway. He was determined to not be stuck inside anymore! Ben got out for a little while and played in all the snow. We did get out that afternoon and made it to the store for a few things.

We found out Sunday that Ben's school was going to be open YAY! He was so excited he went to bed at 730pm (his choice) and got up this morning ready to go! Bad thing is Tuesday night we are expected to get 5-8 more inches-booo!! I'm sure we'll be out of school Wednesday and Thursday if we get that much snow. I am more then ready for SPRING!!!! Hope everyone stayed warm and safe during all of this crazy snow.

Here is some pictures of the snow on Wednesday:

so happy to be out of the house!

one of our snow drifts

the start of Matt's 3 day driveway clearing! the only tools he has was a regular garden shovel and a broom-all the stores were out of snow shovels!

the snow is past his knees!

Google

I wanted to write this so I could always remember it. Ben is growing up so fast that I forget the cute, fun, and sweet, and hilarious things he says and does.

The other day Ben hollered at me from the other room "Mommy, how do you spell ANGRY BIRD?". I told him how to spell it and then wondered what he was doing.

I walked into the living room and he had the IPad out. He was "Googling" how to pass a level on Angry Bird (it's a game he plays on the IPad). First of all I couldn't believe he knew how to open the browser and knew where to type what he wanted to search! Second I wasn't so sure I liked the idea of my 5 year old on Google.

I called Matt and told him what his son was doing. Apparently Daddy had shown Ben how to look up how to pass a level on the game.

Looks like I'm gonna have two computer guys in the house now :)

Flusche Baby #2!!!

Matt, Ben, and I are excited to tell everyone that baby #2 is on it's way!!!! My due date is Aug 23rd.

Friday Matt, Ben, and I went to my first Dr's appointment and got to see the baby and hear it's heartbeat! I was so happy to hear that heartbeat!!!

Here is a picture of the baby at 8weeks. Ben said it looks like a "chewed up piece of gum"-haha!

I am so sick ALL day long! I just lay in bed and sleep. It's no fun for anyone!!! Matt has been amazing! He takes care of Ben, me, the dog, and the house! I am so lucky to have such a wonderful hubby!!!!

My friend, Tonya, dropped off the cutest suprise for me the other day!

haha! It has all kinds of goodies in it-none of which I can eat yet :) Well I did eat the crackers-haha! I thought it was so sweet of her!!! I am so lucky to have such a wonderful friend!!!

My parents also sent me beautiful flowers to brighten my day :)

I just want to say THANK YOU to my friends and family who prayed for me to get that positive pregnancy test! God is amazing and I am truly blessed!!!!

Blocks & Army Men

I had to post these pictures of Ben's "battle ground" he made. I thought it was very creative!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy New Year!!! I hope everyone had a wonderful time celebrating last night!

We had a fun night! Matt, Ben, and I went to Dave & Busters and had dinner and played games!

The boys shot stuff!

Ben enjoying his rootbeer-this picture cracked me up!

Then Ben shot some stuff :)

JACKPOT!

All our tickets!!!!

Then we came home, got comfy, & I watched the boys play Angry Bird haha!

Ben stayed up long enough to watch the ball drop eastern time :) He told me "I didn't even see anything drop! And I know it's not 2011 in Tulsa yet." Then he went to bed-the kid cracks me up!

I am super excited for 2011! All I want for 2011 is a happy and healthy family!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

SANTA CAME!!! And he brought a sleigh full of goodies!

Here is some pictures from our Christmas morning and Christmas at my Mom & Dad's. We had a wonderful lunch and a great time together!!!!
