Surprise!!!!

I thought this post would be better suited by itself.

We have a new surprise in the Veazie Family. As of christmas we have discovered that we are going to be having another baby =)

I started out sicker then ive ever been with any of the other kids. I felt like I had the flu every day for a total of 4 months straight, the Dr. tried so nicely to put me on some meds to help with the nausea but all it did was put me to sleep and didnt help the nausea part. So of course I just put up with it, eating green apples, popsciles, and sniffing peppermint oil every chance i got to keep my food down. The baby and I made with grace, strong and brave.

The little bean inside kept a smile on my face no matter what. Instead of hearing the heart beat at our 11 week appt we got to see it. The dr. couldnt find it, im guessing its because the baby was hidding and wiggling so much, I remember cuz all i could see was a little gummy bear on the screen wiggling and dancing like crazy. We all laughed and waved at it and watched it wave back. The kids thought this was amazing to see. The dr. was amazed at how much the baby wiggled and moved he even sat in amazement at how much our little one was dancing!!

Well the baby is healthy as far as we can see, I soon got over my nausea. Still tired and drained a lot I still found the energy to clean and keep up with the kids. My belly started popping out. I still fit amazingly in my size 16s and was very proud of that but had to cover up the bump with a maternity shirt.

I soon since then have blossomed into size 18 pants or maternity which ever feels the best (sometimes its pajamas for the day =) But happy to finally have a belly to prove I really am pregnant and I look it too.

At around 16 weeks I started feeling flutter which was fun, I always love that part knowing I now know there really is a baby in there and it can now let me know that its there and it loves me. I have now been able to enjoy my pregnancy, even though this one seems to drain me and wants me to eat mexican food on a daily basis =)

Since it has taken me so long to recover my blogger, we have also found out the gender of our little one. We found out in April at 16 weeks, I of course cried my eyes out and so did samara, we are finally getting another little GIRL!!! My husband and I are so excited.

I told greg that since it will be the first girl in 20 some odd years and his first (we met when sam was 1) that he could name her. He picked out the beautiful name Cali, I then found in a baby book a variation of the name Callia meaning "beloved" and its also french so we thought it fitting since, mine, my grandmother, and my mothers names are all french that her name should now be Callia and her middle name after my mother, Antoinett (ann) So let it be told her name is: (maybe spelled different in the future there are so many variations we are finding, to help people pronounce it better) Callia Ann Veazie.

All the emotions running through me (not to mention extra girl hormones) are like a dream. Its been almost 7 years since ive had a sweet, soft , little girl. Since its been ruff and tumble boys. Every time i feel her kick or move its amazing. I think of what she will look like and how soft she will feel to hold in my arms and cuddle. I want her to be as healthy as can be. With every breathe and move I make all I can think is "am i keeping her safe enough?" "am I doing everything right?" I am so paranoid about my every move and what I eat its crazy. Even greg has become softer with the thought of "his" little girl inside of me. He is so loving and caring (not that he wasnt before) and has now become very protective of me and helps me watch what I eat and how I feel, not to mention its gotten hot and ive started swelling at 20 weeks. He worries about that and puts my feet up every chance he gets. I had toxemia with two of the kids and it can put me and the baby in danger so he watches me like a hawk. I think its cute. He love us so much.

Sad to say but excited at the same time this will be the last baby in the veazie family. One of us will be getting fixed, with his mine and ours, we have a house full 6 kids for us is enough and we love each and everyone of them so much. Our heart is filled with so much love, and so is our home! Mission Completed!!!!!
