I decided to at least blog once a week. I need some sort of therapy from the hustle and bustle of being a stay at home mom with a semi-demanding job. Plus a lot of exciting things are happening soon!


I can't believe I'm almost there! After 3 years of it just being mommy, daddy, and Noah we're going to have another little baby to add to the mix. Crazy I know!

First off congrats to my dad who gave his first homily today as an ordained deacon. We're all very proud of him and he's worked very hard to get to where he is today. Speaking of his homily of course he made sure to mention us and tell everyone in church how awesome we are. While he's naming off names I realized instead of calling our new baby Adelyn he actually just went straight to Madelyn. I knew it was going to happen considering he is one of those that has an awful time with names so if you go to far out of the box he just won't get it. My husband had actually mentioned to me just changing it to Madelyn for the sake of our child probably ending up being called that by my father regardless. While I did like the idea of trying something different I am realizing now it just isn't very practical and our daughter will constantly be correcting people. So with that being said she will be a little miss Madelyn Claire and I am quite relieved that the name game is all over. We've officially decided on something and we're sticking to it!

I'm watching this show on Discovery Health and I am completely intrigued. It's so interesting to see that these woman have no idea that they're pregnant. They have no symptoms either (well some of them don't) and some of them have other medical problems that kind of keep medical doctors from diagnosing them properly. The one I was most shocked over was the woman who hadn't had a period for 14 years and delivered one of her babies into the toilet. I was just like "OMG I hope this never happens to me!" than shocker of a lifetime she ended up having twins! Crazy! Than this lady had been told she couldn't have children after she had her daughter and than 18 years later she has a baby and they had no idea! The father was helping his wife in the bathroom and he looked and there was a head. Surprise! LoL! I hope that never happens to me that would just be a shocker. Moving on my husband and I were talking about spacing out our children. As crazy as this sounds we have already discussed having more children, but we're also still deciding how we want to space them out. Right now Noah and Aylin will be 3 years, 1 Month, and 2 days apart. I think that if I hadn't had Noah at such a young age the gap between them would have been much shorter. We have talked about possibly spacing out Aylin and our next child fairly close together. Right now we're in the process of weighing the pro's and con's of having our children so close together so I'm sure we'll decide for sure by the time Aylin arrives in February. I've been asking around (I know some families with children 11 months apart some have children 5 years apart I guess it all depends on the person) so hearing their experiences is kind of aiding in us making our decision. In the end all that matters is what we choose to do and I hope we make the right choice when it comes to our children.
