8 weeks


Weight gain: I have lost about 2lbs at this point, just not eating like normal 
Stretch marks: Nope, not yet. I got lucky the first time around so crossing my fingers
Cravings: Lots of fresh fruit and sweet treats
Missing Anything?:So far just missing the feeling of NOT being sick and tired!
Wearing: My normal clothes, I bought a belly band but it tends to roll up from the bottom.
Symptoms: Mostly nausea and feeling tired. Having a lot of headaches as well. My OBGYN gave me a prescription for Zofran to help with the sickness, it tends to make me feel dizzy though so not sure if I will pursue taking it.
Braylen thinks:He has no idea, he will talk to my belly if we tell him to but he is still in his own world
Looking forward to:Getting out of the first trimester and feeling better, hopefully! I could also use an energy boost!

Moving time

We did it, we bought a house!...or are buying a house! We put in an offer a few weeks ago that was accepted and our closing date is in the middle of March. This is a house that we loved back in the fall before we had enough money saved up. Lucky us, no one had snatched it up while we budgeted away and saved enough to pull the trigger. The day after our offer was accepted we found out that other people were thinking about making offers. Everything happens for reason!

Can't wait to move!
We are busying making plans and figuring everything out, not to mention also growing a little human baby. Braylen thinks that the baby is in his belly and he is constantly changing his mind between wanting a brother or a sister. As for Brett, well he is busy bringing me toast and crackers. Not to mention the extra cleaning and Braylen duties that he has taken over for me. Great guy he is! I have been exhausted and sick almost 24/7, all a part of the gig! I don't remember feeling this sick and tired when I was pregnant with Braylen but I was also not working 40 hours and caring for a two year old. It seems as though my belly is ALREADY starting to grow, it is still a little early for that. 

Yep, this pretty much sums it up

Maybe Baby?


That's right folks, that tiny little bean you see is Boggs baby #2!! Braylen is so very excited to announce that he will be a big brother toward the end of September. He wants a baby brother AND a baby sister, although my doc confirmed just ONE baby. Braylen also thinks that the baby is in his belly. 

Brett and I are so happy and blessed to have our two blessings come to us so easily. We were able to see the baby's little heart flickering on the ultrasound screen. I have been exhausted and sickly but am so blessed and happy!
