What I haven't blogged about....

My sister posted a comment on here a little while back. She said that I haven't mentioned my pregnancy at all on here. It's true. For one reason, I have been a slacker and I haven't written very much on here in the last few months. But my other reason, is because this blog is my Mommy 2 AUTUMN blog....not my mommy 2 Autumn and Owen blog.

So, here goes some baby info...

It is looking like Baby Owen Scott Currey will be here sometime around July 2nd. We will have another c-section (doctor says so). I either wanted Thursday July 2nd (because ae was born on a 2nd and on a Thursday...I know silly, right?) or July 4th...because I already had a groundhog baby, why not a Fourth of July baby as well.

Autumn is excited about being a big sister, although, I honestly worry about her since she is such a mommy's girl. She's going to be such a big helper. But I look forward to also carving out some just "ae and mommy time" as well.

I was shocked to find out that we were having a boy. A tiny part of me really wanted Autumn to have a sister...but now looking back at it, I realized that God know how competitive my child was...and it was better for her to have a brother...especially this close in age.

I am very excited about having a son. We have lots of girls in our family, but not nearly enough boys. He too is definitely going to be a mommy's boy. And I am 100% okay with that. Not sure how much Brandon's going to like that, though.

Not too sure how we got his name, other than Kristi threw the name out there, and I put in on a list with like 50 other names. I let Brandon narrow it down...and his name remained in the top of the list. Scott is Brandon's middle name. And autumn already calls him "Owen Scott". It's never just Owen...but at least that's better than her first choice of Leroy!

Okay, may write more later, but it's 11:21 and she's waking up again.

Sleeping...

Autumn's struggling with sleeping right now. She doesn't make it the whole night anymore. I am sitting here typing this at 11:03 pm on a Friday night...not because I am cool enough to stay up that late, but because I dozed off during the movie (big surprise, I know) and heard her suddenly crying out. Some of it may have to do with the fact that she's had strep throat this week, but I am not so sure. She started this one day last week, being scared when she wakes up in the middle of the night. I don't want her to be scared!
She's pitiful right now, and I just want her to have a good night's sleep. And I am not even saying this for selfish reasons, not this time anyways...I just want her to sleep good. I love her so much. She means so very much to me. I want to protect her, hold her, and keep her safe all the days of her life. She is my precious gift from God!
So, as I type this. She's settled down a bit. Maybe, just maybe she will finish the rest of the night peacefully. I am so thankful that my God knows even the smallest desires of our hearts. Thank you God for watching over her and keeping her safe. I am forever grateful!
