The Pecks: Drumroll Please...

Drumroll Please...

Well, here comes another picture-less blog, but oh well. I planned to put some on, but I haven't scanned the ultrasound pictures onto my computer yet......wait, was that a typo? NOPE! I definitely said ultrasound pics because we are definitely having a baby!!! :) :) :) Of course there are a million other things I should post on here, but I thought I'd get the most important one down and see if I can get the rest on! I just found out that I am 12 weeks along and the due date is October 28! (I'm going to plan for the beginning of October, though, since Easton came 3 weeks early) I found out I was pregnant 5 weeks ago and had no idea how far along I was so we scheduled an ultrasound for this week, went in and found out we're almost in the second trimester! We are so so so sooooo thrilled and can't wait for this new little someone to be born so we can hold it! It's only 2 inches long right now but we could still see the little legs and feet kicking away in the ultrasound. It was adorable! I'm not quite sure how to help Easton adjust to the changes, though, so if any of you have some advice for me, I would really appreciate it!

About the toddler and baby thing... my blog "The Village" is going to be doing a post about just that thing on Saturday. So, check it out in the next couple of days and see what advice other moms give. It might help.....

If you want to see "The Village" there is a button on my blog on the sidebar.

Good luck! You lucky girl, didn't even know until you were farther along. Do you not get sick? I start pucking around 6 weeks.; April 17, 2009 at 6:57 PM

Janaca said...: Congrats Linsi!!! That is great. Let me tell you that having 2 kids is so much fun. I was so worried about Jordan being jealous about a new baby but things have gone really well. He loves him to death and we haven't had any problems. I'm sure Easton will adjust fine too. Good luck and I'll be watching for updates!; April 18, 2009 at 8:20 AM
Tashina said...: Yay! Yay! Yay!!! I am so excited for you guys! I can't believe that you are already so far along! My advice is to talk to Easton as much as possible about the new baby, and keep him involved in the whole thing. It seems to make the transition just a little bit easier... And maybe I will get to come see you in the hospital this time? No infections, please!! :); April 18, 2009 at 8:56 AM

My Silly Boys

Easton LOVES nursery! I told him we were going somewhere fun today and he said, "To nursery??" and got all excited.
Easton pays really close attention to what we say. He calls me "babe" and Jonathan "sweetie." Often he'll say, "Whatchya doin babe?" or "Is sweetie at work?"
Easton woke up from his nap and went straight up to Caden and patted his head and said, "Hey, cool haircut baby."
Easton calls everything silly. When we're running if a bush whacks him in the face he says, "Oh, silly bush!"
Easton pulled a rock out of his shoe and said, "Hey rock! Whatchya doin?"
Easton started whimpering to me and said, "Mom I'm crying" and when I asked why he said, "because your love your love your love is my fun!" and danced away.
While driving, Easton will look out the window and say to himself, "Watch the trees. watch the mountains, watch the cars" and sometimes just start naming things like, "watch Dora, watch the temple, watch lake powell, watch the swimming cool."
At breakfast, Easton asked me to blow him a kiss and when I did he slapped his cheek and said, "Oh, right in the face!"
Caden loves to sing and dance! It starts with the head bob then moves to an entire torso bob and then he gets the "Uuhhh uuuhh" singing going! So cute!
We were swimming and Easton came up and poked my thigh and said, "Squishy leggies!"
I was getting ready and Easton came in and asked me if he could wear a white flower in his hair.
Me: Easton, if you go in the toilet you can have Kachow(Lightning McQueen) underwear. Easton: Mmmm.... Kachow diapers?
Jonathan said he was going to take a shower and Easton said, "all by hisself!" because he hates showers and didn't want to take one with him.
After I get done running on the treadmill Easton cheers "Yay mama" and claps for me. Lately he hops on and says "Didi's turn" and runs in place.
Easton calls himself "Didi." We have no idea why.
Caden pooped in the tub and Easton said "baby no poops bubble bath cucka!"
I asked Easton who his best friend was and he brought me his stuffed Syd the Sloth from "Ice Age" and now he takes his "bres fren" everywhere.
Whenever someone sneezes Easton says, "Bess you!" It is soooo cute!
I said the prayer in Relief Society so about ten minutes into the lesson, Easton walked up to the front of the room, folded his arms, and said a prayer then smiled and came and sat back down by me.
I was singing "I Am A Child of God" and when I sang "...find the way" Easton must have misheard me and sang "no way" with me for the rest of the song.
If you blow on Caden's tummy he giggles!
We were teaching Caden to roll over and Easton pushed Jonathan over and then clapped and cheered, "Yay Dada!"
Cadens favorite game is when you blow raspberries at him so he constantly sticks his tongue at us till we do it back and then he smiles and gets all excited.
So last night we went to Applebees and it was karaoke night and Easton was going crazy dancing to the music! It was hilarious! The manager even came and started dancing with him! What a funny kid.
During their bath, Easton threw a ball at Caden and hit him right in the middle of the head, not trying to be mean, just funny. I waited to see what Caden would do, and he just looked at Easton for a second and then got a huge grin on his face! Yay, another kid that loves being hit in the head!
I gave Caden and Easton a bath together last night and I have never seen Caden so happy! He LOVES Easton and just kept smiling and cooing and gurgling at him!
So, a few nights later we were trying to leave for our ward Christmas party and Easton tried to walk right out the door with the bucket on his head. Then he had a fit cuz we wouldn't let him wear it. Next time I'll just let him.
So last night Jonathan and I were doing the dishes and we heard a crash in the living room. We found Easton walking around with a bucket on his head! He kept running into things and tripping, but for some reason thought it was fun!
Easton likes to get on his hands and knees and then says "bebe" and wants us to put the baby on his back so he can be a horse.
Now that Easton understands the concept of "baby" anything small can be a "baby." For example, Grandma called little cars "baby cars" and now all of the sudden we have baby flowers (leaves), baby snow ( ice), baby vroom vrooms (little cars) and baby basketballs (little ones). Of course, with Easton's limited vocabulary these come out "be-wowa," "be-no," "be-vroom," and my favorite (which is a tongue-twister for him), "be-ba-be-be-ball-ba-be-ba...be-be-b-ball!"
