27 wk Dr visit

I got to take the wonderful Glucose test this morning... I PASSED! Not that I was worried but I sure didn't want to give up my sugar. My appt went just great Jack is measuring a week ahead of what they are thinking and I am going to have another sono in a few weeks so they can double check his size. I do have to start taking iron because my level wasn't where it was suppose to be. I will go back in 3wks and then from there it will be every 2wks...I can't believe I am this far a long already.

We have finally started construction on Brody's room..LOL!! The carpet has been removed and the walls are getting painted. We have decided to keep the hardwood floors so we have some sanding to do. My plan is to have his room done by mid May but it isn't looking so good unless Josh really gets moving! We are still working on potty training and of course like every kid he has his good days and bad days. Brody can officially count to 10, spell his name and point out his name if we write it down. I have enrolled him in Pre-School at Open Door Baptist and he will start July 21st ... he will go 2 days a week for 5 hrs. I am so excited for him to be around other kids his age. We are also very excited for Easter this weekend. I can not wait to watch him hunt for easter eggs!!

Summer is right around the corner and we can not wait to get outside!! My sister is FINALLY moving home this summer for good. We are very excited she will be back and will be able to spend the summer with Brody since she has those wonderful teacher hours!! That's all for now ...

Just some random pics

4-Wheeler FUN

It took a few trys for Brody to really enjoy his BIKE as he calls it...he loved getting on it but once it was on he hated the noise. Now he just loves it!!

Fishin Fun

We took our first fishing trip today...it was a blast. Brody just loves acting like he his fishing and he had just as much fun doing it! He wasn't too sure about touching the fish but I am sure with time that will change.

Cake Decorating Class

So for V-day my boys got me a GC to Michaels and signed me up for cake decorating classes. Monday was suppose to be my first night but the lady called me and there were not enough people signed up to take the class so they are not having it this month. If ANY of you are interested in taking this class please sign up @ the Michaels on Shawnee Mission Pkwy I really want to get started on these classes I find it very interesting and fun to do. They can only have the class if at least 4 people sign up ... I was the ONLY signed up for this month. Please please please if you are interested sign up or if you want more info let me know.

Pregnancy rash

So I started getting this miserable rash a couple weeks ago started on my stomach and slowly moved to my arms and legs. I went to the Dr wed and what do you know it's normal. My liver is releasing a toxin causing this rash - FUN! It could come and go , it could get bad who knows whats going to happen. There is nothing to do about it at this point..the Dr said drink lots of liquids and try to flush the toxins out. He also said that patients don't normally get this till about 30 wks so hopefully this isn't a sign that it's going to be worse at 30 wks. I am 21wks today lets hope it just goes away and never comes back.

20 wks

only 20 more weeks to go. Things are going great Jack is growing just like he should and is moving all over the place. I can't believe how fast time flies. I feel like I just found out I was pregnant. We are starting to clean out the spare bedroom so we can get Brody into his big boy John Deere room. It's quite the task...we don't have much storage space so it seems like our spare bedroom was the place to put something if you couldn't find a home for it. We had to sell our treadmill :( -- OK so I act sad about it but I probably only used it 10 times in the last 4 yrs..lol. Once the room is all cleaned out we are going to get some new carpet and start decorating. I already have everything we need - I think. Jack will get Brody's baby room with a few changes...like the name on the wall. Seems like things are going just as planned and moving along quite fast ... we have several things we are trying to figure out / get planned before Jack arrives so it could get interesting. We really want to take a family vacation just the three of us but we haven't quite figured out where yet and when we would actually have time to go since Josh is only off every other weekend and it seems like we have a million things going on.

A little update on Brody... HE IS A MAD MAN.. LOL... he is so much fun. He is talking more and more everyday and actually putting words together. I came home from work yesterday and he was holding his jacket yelling at dad " Outside Dadda outside" it was dinner time and it was cold so there was no way we were going outside. I kept saying we have to eat dinner first...he was not having it " No dinner, Outside momma" I was trying so hard not to laugh because he was so upset and serious. He loves to jump off the couch onto pillows (I know I know not the best idea) Dad taught him this great trick, well the other night he decided to take his tractor and ride it off the couch -- it was hilarious... I should be telling him no since it is a bad habit but I just find it too fun!!! There is never a dull moment at my house I can only imagine what it's going to be like with 2 crazy boys and there dad!! Can't wait!!!

Oh I forgot to mention we have started potty training...he is very good at telling us when he has to go #2 -- so hopefully by July we won't have any big diapers at our house.
