me & my BOYS-update and a new need to start blogging again

Hey yall!!

Its been a very long time!!  Life has been crazy and great!  Um... lets see.  I can't believe I started this blog more than 5 years ago when I was pregnant with Z!  He just turned 5 last week!!  He is such a fun sweet boy.  He is growing up so fast!!  So after Z we struggled with miscarriages.  We had 5 total.  It was a very long hard struggle for us.  But currently we are 22 weeks pregnant with our second boy!!!  So I can keep the name blog me and my boys!  ;)  Baby is healthy and very active.  I think God knew my momma heart needed a active baby for reassurances.  God is good.   I've been very sick this whole time, but its getting better- I can't complain because baby is doing well. Z is very excited to get getting a little brother!
Happy 5th birthday big boy!!!

Overall we are all doing well!!  Living life with a healthy 5 year old and being pregnant.  Z is in pre k and enjoys being there most the time!  He is so funny and says the funniest things.  He still is hoping I am having twins.. lol.  So I plan on updating this through out my pregnancy again like I did with Z.  It has been alot of fun to look back on things I posted when Z was little and I want to have the same with this baby!
