The New Year and all that it brings...

So as it turns out, it was about the time that I wrote that last post that I became pregnant for the second time!
Thank you to everyone for all your wonderful support. We are due September 23, 2011, and we are still waiting to find out if it is a girl or boy. Any guesses?!?! We are still living in our little two bedroom apartment and will continue to until next year when we will hopefully be able to purchase a home to really spread out and settle down in. We plan on staying in the Menomonie area.
It's so surreal to me that Paul will be turning 1 this month, in one week! And I will be turning 25 in about a month and a half! Not to mention again... that Jerry and I will be the parents of two little ones by the end of this year!

The update on Jerry - He's got nothin.

Rachael Update - Okay, I already said it, I'll be turning 25 next month and I'll have two children by the end of this year. I've also been sick for the last month and a half. I'm very excited for that to end soon. It has been getting better and I've been doing pretty well off the medicine that my doc prescribed to help with the nausea. I've been really enjoying getting to know my friends better that live around here, including the ones that also have their own children! It's been great watching Paul interact with other little kids. He's just so cute! I started watching a new show to me, Bones, about a month ago, and I at first didn't like it very much, but it has since, grown on me. I've also been watching a little girl mostly on the weekends. That's been fun. She is very energetic though, and I have had very little energy. Makes for very interesting days.

Paul- He's been cruisin' around real good. Taking more steps by himself, but still weary of walking alone for long distances. He's very fast at crawling and loves our kitty. He gets so excited sometimes just when he sees her that he does a very loud squeal/screech. OUCH to the ears, but otherwise very cute. He's also moved up to eating... everything! Well, not really. He will try though. Even with his cardboard books. Yuck! He loves looking at his books, and putting toys and things in other things and taking them back out again. One night a week or two ago, I went to my sister Kris's house and I had left a cup n straw sitting out. Paul got it, it was empty, and he played with it for nearly an hour just sitting there on the floor taking the straw out and putting it back in. It also had a cap on it and I think he liked the challenge of trying to put the straw in the little hole. Paul is already up to 6 teeth. Four on top, two on the bottom. Very cute, and the top two even have a gap between them!

So I'm sure there is more I could write, but at this time, I can't think of anything. Miss and love you all!
