I had my first ultrasound today and there's only one baby in there!! I was so excited when the Dr. Couldn't find the heartbeat and we had to have an ultrasound. I wasn't worried that anything was wrong because the same thing happened with Sweet Pea. It was a good excuse to have the ultrasound done!! My fears of having twins or more is gone and now we can plan to squish everyone in our apartment and we don't have to move again...YAY!!!
Sweet Pea's 1st birthday was this past Saturday and I will be putting up some pictures of her little party and baby #2 when I get a chance.

One Month Later
The past month has been busy. Between going to school, working, being a wife and mom things really pile up. Needless to say I am way behind in all areas. Thankfully there is only 1 1/2 more months of school left. Sadly, this means I have a ton to do in not very much time. Somehow it will all get done.
I've been dealing with the pregnancy ickys and they are slowly starting to get better. My food cravings are much different this time around. This time it's all about salty foods which is more dangerous than sugar cravings I think. Ham, french fries, bacon, sausage, and pancakes. I could eat these things EVERY DAY!!! IHOP and McDonald's here I come!
This coming Saturday is Sweet Pea's 1st birthday!!! A few people are going to come to her "party." We're going to have some cake and ice cream, sing happy birthday, and just have fun getting together. Sadly no grandparents or other family members can come:( I hate living so far away from home.
Speaking of Sweet Pea we have been using cloth diapers regularly. This little girl is what the cloth diapering world calls a "super wetter" because of this we still use Pampers Baby Dry at night. There are some days when I just want to quit using them and sell off our supply on e-bay. It's the smell, I just can't handle it sometimes. We don't have a good bag in our diaper pail and everything just stinks sometimes. Maybe it's because I'm pregnant. Not all days are like this, mainly just the ones where I'm completely exhausted, so this means half of the week or more.
I really like using the Fuzzi Bunz, BumGenius, and Bumkins AIO. Prefolds aren't that bad, but I don't like that she feels wet. I feel the same way about Kissaluvs. I highly recommend the ProWrap cover for both prefolds and Kissaluvs. They have some extra side protection that the Bummis wraps don't. Washing them isn't that bad except we all are very sensitive so it's taken a while to find a good detergent that works. Purex Free and Clear+washing on hot works for me...most of the time. I think I'm just getting lazy with laundry all around. We still have full, clean laundry baskets in our room from a week ago. Someday I'll get my act together.
