Baby Update


We're starting to look at houses again as they come on the market. Keeping our fingers crossed but not holding our breath just yet. Nathaniel is loving his job and work is taking care of us during this move. So nice to have a job that works for our family.

I had an ultrasound on Friday. Baby is measuring right on 14 weeks 2 days. Was hoping for a sneak peek but baby decided to be a "frog" everything is looking good though. I don't have anymore killer morning sickness (thank goodness and knock on wood!) Still pretty tried. Ethan sure loves to take care of me it's so cute. Kendyl keeps asking when we can find out if it's a girl or boy. Not until April (so long away!) 

 Baby says "RAWR" Kids sure got a kick out of this pic. It totally looks like baby has hands up by face a growling at us. Yep it's a Higham already!
Great picture of baby just chillin. It's amazing it see the difference just a few weeks make. Baby went from being a "gummy bear" to an "alien" LOL

Quick Update

No house, we are still in our rental. Thank goodness for that! Kids are dong well with school. Samantha sure is growing up the last few weeks. Turning into a big help with Taylor. I even can grab a shower by myself! Taylor is no longer the baby. She still isn't talking but picks up each new sign we show her. Most of the time she signs back to us. Just the over day she walked up to Daddy and signed "cheese" "please" is was cool. And of course we ran to the kitchen and got her some cheese. Kendyl is 9 and going on 15 and driving me INSANE!!! This to shall pass, right? Ashley is getting excited for turning 8 in April. From her baptism to her trip to Disney Land she is going to be one busy little girl. Ethan is starting to calm down a bit. Less fits and more obeying. Can't complain about that! He's learning a ton in school. Still comes home with a tale 10 miles long about his day (sure is a good story teller).

We are adding another member to our family this summer. Baby Higham should be arriving right before school starts. It's going to be a bust summer. With living in Dayton we have decided to drive back to Kadlec to have baby. So I'm making quite a few trips there for doctor's appointments. Because of my fast labors doctor said I better plan on staying with family the week before baby is due because of the 1.5 hour drive (don't need to have baby in the van!) I just pray every day baby will be safe and come when he/she is good and ready (and please in the hospital) We haven't told many people outside of family because I don't need/want to hear peoples bad advice/opinions. Yes I do know what causes a baby, yes we did choose to have another, yes I love each and everyone of my children, yes I know I will be VERY busy, yes I know we need a bigger van. I'm not dumb! I don't get how some persons feel it is their duty to make me feel bad about our choice to expand our family. If you can't be happy and sure in our joy then do this "if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all" huh? do what? oh you mean don't open my big mouth when my words might hurt another.
