For So Many Reasons...

So I have not blogged in a while "for so many reasons" but here are the main ones...First and foremost, we are happy to announce that we are having our third baby around may 28th and we are really excited about that. We aren't, however, thrilled about the morning sickness that so far has been better than my last 2 pregnancies, but still a killer. My second reason would be that our failure(not for lack of trying) to get the H1N1 vaccine came to get us and both Wade and I got it. The kids seem to have passed it by, thanks to G and G Shrader who came to help take care of the kids and keep them away from me so I could rest since I was so high risk. Both of them have had coughs for the last month and today Jacob woke up with hives which I also had about a week ago and my doctor blamed on pregnancy, but now I am not so sure. Anyways, all of this has caused a lot of stress on me and the baby, we even had a little scare last Tuesday and thought we might lose it, but with a lot of bed rest we seem to be okay, just tired. So there are my excuses hope it's enough to let me pass this time and I will be posting Halloween pictures and everything else I have missed in the next few days. Thanks to all of you who have helped us out the last few months, we really have appreciated it.
P.S. We will be changing our address sometime in the future, I am not really sure why I made it "plus 2" when I was pretty sure there would be more kids, but oh well, sorry for the hassel. It will most likely be burnettgazette.blogspot.com if it has not been taken, but I will let you know.

Yay, Amanda! I'm so excited for you! But I'm so sorry about all the illness and morning sickness! What a rough start to a pregnancy. I had one of the most violent stomach flu bugs of my life when I was very first pregnant with McKenna. I couldn't believe that I was still pregnant when it was all said and done.
Hang in there, take care of yourself, and let me know if you need anything! It's fun to be pregnant at the same time again!

That is so great Amanda! Congrats!! I hope the morning sickness gets better. That part definitely bites. Hopefully we'll get to visit you guys sometime this month since we want to see the lights. We'll stay at Jen's (if we stay overnight) so we don't add even more stress. Take care and I hope the rest goes smooth!!

I am so excited for you guys! So sorry about the morning sickness, it is a bugger. I can so remember all the stuff that comes with pregnancies, but you are so blessed. I think about you so often, every time I drive to Tri-cities, and more so. I sure hope you are doing well. Will and I are actually moving to Bozeman MT. He was transferred and it is permanent position, so with much sadness we will be leaving Moses Lake and moving on. I actually really like this little town, shopping stinks but for the most part it has been a great little place for us. Anyway, tell the ward members hi...will be thinking of you...

Congrats on baby number 3! So sorry you have been feeling so yucky. I hate that darn "morning sickness" I hope you're feeling better really soon. Are you finding out the gender? Not sure if you knew already or not, but we're expecting number 3 in February and it's another girl, haha. Poor Erik :)
