Easter 2008









I didn't put any music to this because I couldn't find any that fit. All of these photos are from this last week. figured this was way easier than uploading each one.

Trying to get lots done while Kelly is on spring break, will post again soon.

ps. Happy 34th Birthday Kim. You are in my thoughts alot today. Miss you.

Okay, I must let you all in on a little secret.......and NO I don't know what I'm having. I have been reading a new blog that will knock your socks off. It's called Confessions of a Pioneer Woman and Rhee is downright funny. Actually it just took 2 bloggie awards. The link is now on the right and you just have got to try some of the things she cooks. I promise you will be hopelessly addicted. Plus i love her photos. she is my kind of gal.
Anyway not much else going on except baking 20 loves of bread for the bake sale tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow we will be coloring easter eggs, getting packed for the egg hunt on Saturday, maybe make cookies, maybe make a couple of quiches for Easter morning. Who knows maybe nothing except for dying eggs and getting ready for the egg hunt. we'll see

What I've learned today;

If your child shoves disolvable candy(this instance Nerds) up his nose, just wait it out or try to make him sneeze, which he did halfway to the doctors office. If he shoves say a bead up there use Afrin spray and that should relax the nose to where the bead should fall out or be easier to get.

I also learned that Wyatt has a cold.

All for the good price of $20.

Gotta love 3 year old boys, they sure do keep you on your toes.

Hi Mommy, I'm in here all snug as a bug. Today has been a busy day, I've been kicking and punching you all day. I'm sure the poor tech lady sure had fun trying to take photos of me today. Did you see me wave to you? Towards the end I was feeling a little tired, so I gave a big yawn but I couldn't sleep because there was soo much going on. I'll be seeing you soon.
Love baby
Everything is looking great, baby is measuring perfectly at 19-20 wks. Heart, kidneys, bladder, spine and brain look perfectly normal. Baby is VERY active and BREECH, so little one likes to kick mommy in the cootchie.
I've known that I have a heart shaped uterus, well today we took a very good picture of it for my doctor. The tech said I have an I love Lucy type heart shape, I thought it was kinda funny.
That last picture is kinda freaky but it's the only time the baby kinda waved.
And for you all wanting to know the sex, because the rugrat is breech they couldn't find out the sex if I wanted to know, which I am firm so far and don't want to know.
I could have watched the baby move most of the day, he/she is so active with the kicking, waving, sucking it's fingers, yawning, flipping etc, etc, etc.
So I'm half way to delivery and I have lots to do. See you all soon

So my vehicular baby is home and snug under the carport. Grand total was $4600 and change. Cough....cough. Thank you Inez for saving our butts. I am extremely blessed in my mother-in-law. Betsy drives like nothing has ever happened and it's great to have her back.

So I'm laying in bed this morning @ roughly 5:25am and i can't sleep. I start to feel junior (as I call baby) moving around. Now I feel pressure but rarely have i felt a kick. So I put my hands on my stomach and with one finger I tap 3x and stop, then 3 more times, and I felt the baby kick! I had the hugest grin on my face. This is the first time i have felt a kick against my hand. Now I have had plenty of cootchie kicks, which can stop any time by the way, but I love to feel the baby kick against my hand. Once these kick grow a little harder and more consistent I can let the kids feel them too.
My sonogram is this coming Tuesday @ 9am and i am still firm in not finding out what we are having. At least I will try and stay firm on not knowing.
Cute little funnies that I need to remember: Kelly saying that she has a baby in her tummy also. Kelly saying that Daddy has a baby in his tummy. Also that I would be having the baby last Tuesday when Kelly got home from school, ummm, no.
Wyatt keeps asking," mommy, you have a baby in your tummy?"
me, "yes buddy"
Wyatt, "Okay" and off he goes to play.
So I'm off for now, I probably won't post again until Tuesday afternoon, once I call my family and tell them how things look, size, health, yada, yada.
