Welcome

Eric & I were married on January 15, 2010. And then again on April 10, 2010. If you know the military, there's no need to explain :) We had a small, perfect wedding in Myrtle Beach.
The Marine Corps moved us to Houston, TX for recruiting duty and we had our first baby, Brady in June, 2011. And our second son, Levi in December, 2013. We wrapped up in Houston, and have recently moved back to North Carolina. This blog is to share with our family and friends, and for me to look back on when I want to revisit the memories.

29 Weeks!


There's been a lot going on these last few weeks in the Weisinger house. I'll start with Eric's orders.

April 21, 2014 we are DONE with recruiting and will be moving to Camp Pendleton. I can't say I was shocked at the news. Numb is more like it. It was strange to finally just know! We've been wondering for 2 ½ years really. And very anxious for the last month knowing that orders could come any day. After we told family and friends, and I let go that we are not going back to our house, I started to get excited. I know there is so much to do out there, especially for kids, so it will be a great adventure for our family. Sea World, Disney Land, San Diego Zoo, LegoLand, and those beautiful beaches!

I'm obsessively looking at houses and schools (Brady will at the very least be in Pre K, Kindergarten, and 1st grade out there!) I've got a very specific list of things I want in our next home, so I'm always praying, that when the time comes, we find the perfect place to call home. Base won't allow pit bulls so that option is out. Not that we wanted to live on base anyways. I just don't think it's for us. However, Sugar has never done anything wrong and neither have we as her owners. So don't get me started on the injustice! The cost of living out there is ridiculous, so it would be nice to have the option!

Brady has been doing so well in school. Some days he gets a little upset when I drop him off, but just a little teary and a few hugs, then he's fine. He's always in a GREAT mood when I pick him up. I know he's loving it. Bit of a side note just because it's funny: When we get home, he immediately starts stripping! Shirt is usually first, then shoes. Yesterday, it was shirt and pants, and he played the rest of the day in just a diaper and his shoes. LOL.

I also started attending a women's bible study on Monday mornings. I LOVE IT!!!! We are studying the book of Jonah and how he ran from God's plan for him. And how poorly that turned out! It's a great lesson and coming at a great time for me. I've met several wonderful women there and love the table I sit with.

I had my appointment today, and as usual, Levi is doing very well :) My blood pressure was 118/78 (it's always spot on thank God), we heard his perfect little heartbeat at 144, and my belly measures exactly 29 weeks. The hospital where I delivered Brady and planned on delivering Levi, is closing :( I'm so bummed. I have to switch to a different hospital now, but it's bigger and my doctor really loves it. So we will just have to do a tour and pre-register. But that's really no biggie. I'm just thankful we found out a little early and not last minute!

FLORIDA!!! The first week of October, we will be in Florida again with my family. We contemplated not going this year since I will be rather large and pregnant, plus my bladder issues. BUT, the good outweighs the bad and my doctor gave me the green light. Sarah and her family will be there with my newphew. I've GOT to see him :) I'm so glad we decided to go, even though it's an expense, since we will be on the west coast next year. I think we will skip Florida trips while we are out there. Hopefully my family will make it a California trip for a few years :)

Nursery Update

I just wanted to add the pictures of Levi's nursery. We've made a lot of progress. I just need a few pillows for the chaise lounge. I was contemplating a rug in there, but I think I'm going to hold off on that. 

Brady is obsessed with playing in Levi's room. He plays cars in there, puts Mr. Bear "nigh nigh" in Levi's crib, and climbs all over the changing table. Poor second baby! First baby gets everything brand new and no one has even touched it until he's born. Second baby gets all hand me downs and everything is 'broken in' by big brother :)

                                show me the back all on his own. Daddy's boy!
