24 Weeks

Well, we've survived another month! And this month, I think it was barely surviving. We have been incredibly sick in the Hays house for the past three weeks. We started with a stomach virus right after Christmas (whoever gave us THAT gift- it was not appreciated!) then moved into a nasty upper respiratory infection/virus that has been going around. It landed me in the Emergency Room one night last week, and back at the doctor this week. Needless to say, we are ready to be well again! Baby Hays has been strong through it all though, and I have about a week left on antibiotics to hopefully get rid of the sickness for good!
 

 
We have another check up for the baby on Monday, and since they will be testing me for gestational diabetes, I get to eat a candy bar for breakfast that day!
 
We still haven't decided on any names for this little one ... Asher is on the short list (and seems to be Eli's favorite so far) but we aren't 100% settled on it yet. I still like Ezra, but Jason thinks it sounds "too Amish". Grayson is another name we're considering, but I kind of want to stick with another Biblical name to go with Eli. It's such a hard decision!!

You are looking great! I hope you are feeling better. I love all of those names, I can't wait to see which you choose.

Thanks, Jenn! I needed that compliment! I expected to get bigger faster with this being the second baby, but wow- I feel huge already and still have a long way to go!
