Lazy days are here again

Last night I started feeling yucky...head stopped up, headache, just feeling blah. Last week I took my 3-hour glucose test for my pregnancy and I passed but...I'm still feeling like my sugars are outta whack! Going through the diabetes with Christian, I know when somethings off and that's how I'm feeling now. I just need to REALLY watch what I'm eating, logging, and checking my sugars after I eat. Needless to say...we stayed home from church today. I'm not sure I'm ready for the lazy days already. I was hoping to go a little farther into the pregnancy before I was down a lot. 

GiGi, Christian and I have watched LOTS of movies today. The Chipmunks, Dora, Diego, Bugs Life. 

I had to run to Walgreens today b/c Christian was almost out of formula and GiGi said she wanted Ice Breakers Gum. She's NEVER even had it before...she's SO crazy. I have NO idea where she even heard about Ice Breakers Gum.

Hoping to feel better tomorrow!

Proverbs 3:5-6

Proverbs 3:5-6 says...Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy path.

Some days, life seems SO overwhelming when I sit and think of ALL the things that need to be accomplished within the next 7 months. We have rennovations that need to be done to make room for 5 people, we need to pay off some debt, we need to get a bigger vehicle, we need to...we need to...we need to...AHHHH! Isn't it funny how quickly I forget that God is in control and He will not give us anything too big that we can't handle, with His help of course. I truly believe everything will come together just fine it just gets overwhelming sometimes.

I'm really getting excited about another baby in the house and wandering will GiGi share a room with a sister or will Christian share a room with a brother? It's also neat to think...will this baby look like GiGi and Christian or will it have a look all its own. So many wonderful things to think about. I keep having these dreams about the new baby and, in every dream, the baby is a girl. Girl or Boy, I know we're TOTALLY blessed!

What's in a name?

Eric and I both agree on a girl's name but haven't DEFINITELY decided on a boy's name. So...I put a post on facebook to see what names people would come up with. I must say...some interesting names. Here were the ideas.
-Collier Anthony
-Reed Anthony
-Bennett Miles
-Jax
-Jace
-Kaegan
-Jaden
-Jordan
-Matthias
-Lee
-Darius
-Bartholomew
-Jebediah
-Cesar
-Seth
-Levi
-Jaxon
-Malachi
-Luke
-Jackson
-Ryan
-Philip
-Levi Morris
-Peyton Levi
-Bennett Cade
-Mason Bennett
-Harrison Cade
-Joseph Anthony
-Corbin Miles
-Nicholas
-Blake
-Ashton
-Preston
-Lodan
-Noah

LOTS of ideas but not really sure any takers. We're pretty sure we have a boy's name picked out too. I guess we'll see in about 10 weeks what it will be??? Can't wait!

New baby in the Hackl household

This week, even though Eric and I have know for a while, we announced that we are going to welcome baby #3 into our household April 25, 2011. We've always known we wanted 3 kids, just to round out our family, we just never knew it would come so shortly after giving birth to our son Christian. Christian is 10 months old and will be 17 months old when the baby arrives. I'm a little concerned at how he is going to respond to another "baby" in the house since he is a TOTAL momma's boy. I pray he will accept the baby well. I know GiGi will do just fine since she has been SO wonderful with Christian and has been since day 1. She thinks mommy is having a girl that we should name Holly. She also says that she has a baby boy in her belly. She's quite a mess! I would LOVE another girl but have a feeling it's another boy. I guess we should see in about 11 or 12 weeks!
