Much Needed
First let me start out by saying I AM 32 WEEKS PREGNANT ONLY 8 MORE TO GO! As you can tell I am just a bit excited and let me tell you why.
1 I cant wait to see my little guy:)
2 I cant wait to not be HUGE and uncomfortable
3 I want to not feel like I have a athlete in training in my tummy 24/7
Ok so since my last post alot has happened.
FEB
Brent went to Reno for a week for a competition for school. His team did not win but they did a great job. He talked to at least 5 companies about doing his internship with them this summer so that was good. We also decided that since it did not look like we would be staying her in AZ this summer we would rent out our house and move in with my mom:( It is not so bad we have the entire basement to ourselves.
March
Early in this month Hamilton Construction called and offered Brent an internship in Oregon. We were excited we had got one but said to know that right after Reginald is born we will have to move away for the summer. I mean what am I going to do with a new born and a dog. (Yes Charlie is a part of our family and will be making the long trip with us this summer:/) So now that we live in Mesa we get to see alot more of our friends and family. I love it! The doctor says I am doing great. He says my weight gain and Reg's growing are right on track. I dont have any stretch marks on my tummy.....yet so that is exciting too. I have been having BAD contractions but they ran some test and my cervix is still closed so they said to just take it easy. I have been outgrowing everything i own it seems overnight. It is uncomfortable and fun all at the same time. I have been stressing out about what I am going to do with a baby and how i will know what to do. I hope in the next 8 weeks I get some idea of what i am doing.
These past weeks I have been out looking and shopping for things for my little guy. Girl things are cute and sassy but I jsut cant get over little boys stuff. I mean how can you look at a little church outfit with a vest and not just have your heart melt? Or look at a little outfit that says mommy loves me and jsut not want to squeeze it? Surprisingly I have had awesome self controll and have only baught things I thought I could not live with out!

just an "old" lady
So I know I have not posted in forever so here is a little update about the Lewis home. Brent has started back at ASU and is liking his classes. We both still don't have jobs and are just doing odd jobs for people. I am about 6 months pregnant and let me tell you baby Reg is a little busy body. He is kicking 24/7 it seems like he never sleeps which means I never sleep.
So today at church I was sitting in Relief Society and fanning myself with the program. We live in Arizona and it is not that cold but it felt like the heat was cranked to 90. So I ask my friend Natalie next to me if she was hot and she said she actually felt cold. So I looked around the room and realized I was like all the old My new adventure is beginning before Reg makes his grand entrance.
So I will post new pics and more info next time....Cross my heart!

it's a BOY
That is right! Yesterday we went and found out we are having a little boy and we are so excited! There was no doubt in our minds once the image came up and I yelled out "it's a wiener." Brent laughed at me and the ultra sound lady thought I was crazy.
The pictures are a little small but isn't he adorable. And those long legs...I don't know where he got those from?

HELP
So for those of you who dont know I was let go at work. They said that since I could not work full time after the baby they did not want to keep me around. DUMB! So now I just sit around ALL day bored as ever. I thought it would not be that bad but in the past couple of weeks we have had SO many unexpected bills that need to be paid. I have become extreamly stressed out which I know is bad for the baby but I cant help it. With me not working and Brent working part time we are living off our savings and money will dry up at some point. So I am asking if anyone knows of any job that is hiring let me know. I am not picky and can work just about any hours. Or if anyone has ideas of things I could do from home I am open to anything.

Butterflys
Dear Baby Lewis
Mom would like to know what on earth you are doing in there? You are only 16weeks old but I
can feel you moving already. It feels like butterflys have taken over my tummy. Every time I try to have dad feel it you stop moving. I think it is a little game you like to play! I can see you now my little mischievous one playing tricks on mom and dad. The past couple of weeks you have given us a scare with the bad cramps, killer back pain and shooting pain down my leg, but you were probably just trying to make my tummy more comfortable. You FINALLY let me stop throwing up and put on 3lbs. Now I am starting to fill out more, and soon I could actually look pregnant! Mom and dad love you so much. Dad insists you only listen to GOOD music so he puts Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon on my tummy and you seem to like it. Dad already is speaking to you in Portuguese and slowly I am learning too. Five more months in my tummy and then it will be your big day. And dont forget Dec 21, give us a clear so we can see if you are a boy or girl! Try to be kind and gentle when you do arrive and not be over 8lbs. I dont think I can give birth to a 10lbs baby! Remember mom and dad love you and want you to grown big and strong!
