Oops..

Wow, I can't even remember the last time I wrote in here and I'm too lazy to look, so....sorry guys!  There were so many times when I thought- oo! I'd love to write about that/ I need to write a blog on that etc.  And here we are- however many months later.  I can at least sort through the big stuff:

We're expecting baby #2 later this year in November!  I'm in the 2nd trimester now and am feeling better- tho I wonder if true energy will come back- chasing after a toddler all day pretty much has convinced me that 2nd trimester energy is only true for first time moms and a myth for those of us with little ones to look after already.  I can't decide what I want which is for the best cause whenever I get my heart set on one it's invariably the opposite.  I was convinced that Jake was a girl until the morning of our ultrasound.  I'd like a boy so jake can have a lil buddy and partner in crime but then again I want a girl so I guess I can't lose.

We just went to Houston for my younger brother's wedding.  The Richards' clan are all officially married so I guess we won't have any more weddings until Code's side starts (we're hoping it won't be for a lil while ;)  It was a great wedding and Rosie is a wonderful girl and I'm excited to get to know her better since they'll be moving out here.

I have tons of pics of course but I'm waiting for them all to upload.  We also got family pics done while there-the first time we're all together/with significant others + kids.  I'm very excited for them to be done and hope they turn out well/ can't wait to hang some up.

Jake is doing great and it's hard to believe that he'll be 2 in a few months.  He LOVES nursery and never cries or looks back when we drop him off which I'm really pleased with.  He's such a sweet and tender heart- I don't want him to be shy/clingy on top of that so I'm happy to see him be independent (it also doesn't hurt that there's toys and snacks galore.)  We'll prolly move him out of the nursery and into his "big boy" room complete with his own bed this fall so he can adjust before the baby comes.

Riley, our puppy, is doing well.  I realize I've never really written about him or posted pictures of him haha.  But he seems to be settling in well and we're close to being fully potty-trained and now we're working on his jumping up/nipping.  He's pretty good with Code and I, but still takes advantage of Jake-I think Riley sees Jake more as a fellow puppy/peer so that can be frustrating.
