22 weeks!

Wow its so hard to believe that i am already 22 weeks pregnant. so many things have changed with the haldemans! Jake has grown up so much he is sooo excited to meet his baby sister, he thinks we can just go to the store and pick her up. we watched dumbo the other day and Jake asked if baby sister would come in a blanket? ha john reassured him that its kinda like that lol. Jake has been talking like crazy he no longer points its full sentences. he had a Dr. appointment just for a check up and the Dr. gave us the go ahead to get him back on potty training and he is doing fabulous!!! he has only had 2 accidents in 3 days! for some reason everything just clicked this time. he loves to walk around in his underwear and show everyone his big boy pants. John loves the fact that we don't buy diapers anymore but also the dirty diapers are no more....... well for now that is. I'm just so proud!

Being 22 weeks pregnant already has me freaking out! i feel like just yesterday was when i found out i was having a baby and now she has a name! here is the official name ISABELLA ROSE HALDEMAN. I hate when people tell me that they don't like it but whats important is that john and i do and where the ones that are going to be caring for her! Yes I understand that the name is popular but oh well i have loved that name since i was a little girl! any who I find that i am getting more tired each and everyday, but i haven't been so sick since they gave me the zofran which is like a life savor! Last week i went into labor and delivery with sever cramping. it was to the point were i couldn't breath. They got me in right away and ran some tests having 3 dr's look at for 2 hours was horrifying. i felt like i was a Guinea pig in some experiment. well after my results came back they all came back in saying that my uterus was charlie horsing and there was nothing that they could do to stop it. so they gave me some ambien and sent me on my way. I was extremely grateful and upset at the same time. for a second there we thought that i was in labor they couldn't relay the news that i wasn't a little sooner? but other then that scare at 2 am everything else has been fine!

OCTOBER!!! is our big month! were moving out into our own place. were so excited and we cant wait to finally feel independent and be able to enjoy our own place. we have been looking around at different decor and are having so much fun with it. from lamps to end tables it seems like no matter how much stuff we have it never seems like we have enough or that were always missing something! we ordered a new bed its a queen we cant wait its a seely pillow top! and with my prego aches its going to feel amazing! we still have lots to get and so little time :)

well that's all for now hopefully that gives everyone a good update
Love

Ashleigh + John!!!!!
