Just a short update on Baby Boy #2. My due date is Monday. I am feeling 39 1/2 weeks pregnant at this point. I pretty much want to sleep all the time, but actually sleep very little between the constant trips to the bathroom and the head cold that I have.

I finally decided in the past week to get stuff ready for him. We bought diapers, wipes, bottles and everything else we need before he comes. We got out the carseat and cleaned it. We set up the bassinet and washed all the bedding with it. We should be about ready.

I went in for my appointment yesterday. I haven't had any progress in three weeks, but I'm fine with that. I think he has just decided it is far too cold outside to come out yet. With the head cold I have had for the past week, I am kind of glad he isn't coming early so that I can try to get that out of my system before he comes.

We are pretty anxious to see what he is going to look like. With Peyton we were so curious and with this one, you kind of assume he will look somewhat like Peyton, but every kid looks so different.

I will update when more happens. Nothing too exciting to report this week.

Update on Baby Boy #2

My goal this year has been to blog more than last year, which isn't hard since I posted once last year and it was a post about my tardiness in getting our year in review video completed.

So, with this post, I have now kept my resolution. :)

Update on Baby Boy #2: I am now three weeks from my due date. I have another appointment tomorrow, but as of last week everything looked great. I have gained four pounds total so far in my pregnancy, which is great. (Two of those pounds were in the past two weeks. Darn Christmas candy!) I have been eating healthier and I am hoping that it gives me a head start to lose weight after the little guy comes.

I am really not ready for this baby to be born. I have not gotten anything ready, and I really mean nothing. I bought him a shirt a few months ago and that is the only thing hanging in his closet (which is still set up as the guest room and probably will remain the guest room until after I have him.)

I found the box of Peyton's old clothes this weekend and brought it in the house, but it is still sitting in the office waiting to be washed folded and put away.

Other than that, we haven't done anything. We are planning a shopping trip next week to get everything else we need, so he can't come early!

Johnson Family 2013 in Review Video


This year, we decided to record our year in one second a day. Some days were exciting, some were not as exciting, but every day got one second. In the end, our lives are made up of the exciting and the ordinary days. Being honest, there are a few days here and there that we missed getting our video. On those days, we used a photo that we took that day.

We hope you enjoy seeing the highlights of our year!

I asked Shawn if we were going to do it again this year. He said absolutely not! It was a TON of work :)
