Common Sense!

"You're getting really big!" (Been told this many times by many different people)
"When are you due again? (I tell them) Oh I was thinking you were due like next month or something!" (This was said only 15 min. after telling her I was 19 weeks along.)
"You're sure you're not having twins?"
"You're alot bigger with this pregnancy than you were with your last 2."

Can I just tell you how sick and tired I am of people telling me how huge I look! I have a mirror people, I have to look in it every day! I don't need to be reminded of how big I'm getting! I would think that people would use some common sense and think before they say something like this. And all of these comments have been said to me recently by women who have biological children of their own. You would think they of all people would know what it feels like to be large and in charge and therefore, would be a little more careful about what they say to pregnant women. I would never even consider going up to someone that is overweight or pregnant and telling them how huge they look. That is non of my business! And it's rude! So please, if you see me and think to yourself "Wow she's really getting big!" then please just keep it to yourself! I know how big I am and there isn't a whole lot I can do about it. I know that it sounds like I'm complaining but I just am tired of all those people that speak before they really think about what they are saying. I just wish everyone had a little common sense:)

17 1/2 Weeks

Things are going well as far as the pregnancy goes. We got the Triple Screen back and it came back negative and my Thyroid issues, it seems have disappeared! What a blessing! Anyhow, I'm getting huge! I don't remember being this big with the other two at this stage but I didn't take pics with them to compare so I guess I could have been. Anyhow, Josh and I are having a difficult time coming up with a name for this baby. We are not going to find out beforehand what the gender is so we have to come up with a boy and a girl name! I need suggestions! We both like more modern names. For example: We spelled Jaxon's name with an X because I do not like the name Jack at all and didn't want people calling him that for short. The names I like are Boston and Porter but can't really talk Josh into them because he's too caught up in the name Colt (which I do not like at all). For girls I like Cadence and Paislee but he doesn't like those names at all. He likes Oaklee and Londyn which I like but they just aren't my favorite. Any suggestions would be so helpfull. I like things that are a little different but not too different! Please help!

The Crowther Campout!

Jaxon has been begging us to go camping and so last week I decided that we would have a campout in the basement. Josh got out his tent and set it up for the kids in the middle of the family room and they were happy campers. I slept (if that's what you call it) in the middle of the kids. They had so much fun! Now that is my type of camping!!!

Preschool #2

Jaxon started his second year of Preschool on August 9th. He was so excited to start he could hardly wait! I'm so glad he likes school so much. His teacher is great, we all love her to pieces! I can't believe my little boy is growing up so fast:( But he is the cutest little guy I've ever seen! Just look at those cheeks:) Here are a few pics of the first day of "Preschool #2". (In Jaxon's words)

Here we go again!!!!

So as you can probably guess from the pics we are having baby #3! We are super excited about it! It wasn't something we planned but we couldn't be happier. The reason it wasn't planned to happen this early was because I already have a December baby and a January baby but now I'll be adding one more to the list of winter babies for our family. I am due January 27th! This picture was taken today by my little photographer Jaxon. He did a great job I think! I am 14 1/2 weeks right now and I'm feeling pretty good. I still am sick but that will hopefully pass very soon:) Everything has gone pretty good. I do have an overactive Thyroid but that won't cause any problems with the baby as long as we get it under control. We are still working on that since one of the nurses that works in my doctors office (not his regular nurse) told me I had an underactive thyroid and put me on meds to make me have more of that hormone in my body. Thank heavens my doctor caught the mistake 4 weeks later at my next appt. and immediately had me taken off that pill and now I'm just waiting for my levels to go back to whatever normal is for my body. A little crazy I know but I'm just glad it's all figured out and now we can move forward. Other than that we are healthy and things are going well. I haven't gotten around to posting pics of our cruise yet but that will happen shortly I hope! Sorry!

We have been keeping ourselves busy around here. We have also gone on a cruise to Alaska, celebrated our 7 year anniversary, the 4th of July and the 24th of July with lots of BBQ's and parties. I have more pics but that's all for now.
