38 WEEKS!!

WELL, WE ARE IN THE HOME STRETCH NOW. WE ONLY HAVE 12 DAYS (FROM TOMMORROW) UNTIL WE MEET THIS NEW BABY BOY AND I CANNOT WAIT. I AM FEELING PRETTY GOOD AS LONG AS THE KIDNEY PROBLEMS STAY AWAY. I AM JUST TRYING TO ENJOY THESE LAST FEW DAYS BECAUSE I KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE SO DIFFERENT (IN A GOOD WAY) WHEN THE BABY GETS HERE. WE HAD ANOTHER FUN FAMILY DAY TODAY AND WENT TO THE BOAT SHOW, THE BASS PRO SHOP, RUBY TUESDAYS, AND WALMART. THE BOYS WERE SO GOOD AND WE WERE ALL POOPED BY THE TIME WE GOT HOME,BUT WE HAD FUN.

THE CIRCUS!!

THE BOYS LOVED THE CIRCUS AND WE ALL HAD SO MUCH FUN! DADDY AND I TOOK THEM,SO IT WAS JUST THE FOUR OF US. I ALWAYS ENJOY FAMILY TIME WITH ALL MY BOYS! THEIR FAVORITE WAS THE ELEPHANTS AND TIGERS. WE WENT WEDNESDAY NIGHT TO THE OPENING SHOW AND IT DID NOT START UNTIL 7:30,SO BY 9:45 THE BOYS WERE ASKING FOR THEIR CHOCOLATE MILK AND WE KNEW THEY WERE TIRED. WE CUT OUT A FEW MINUTES EARLY,BUT I DON'T THINK WE MISSED ANYTHING AND THEY WERE READY. WE WILL DEFINITELY HAVE TO DO THAT AGAIN NEXT YEAR WITH ALL THREE OF THEM:)!

HAVING FUN WITH MOMMY AND DADDY!!

BABY BROOKS!!!

I WAS FEELING MUCH BETTER THIS MORNING AND COULD NOT WAIT TO GET TO THE HOSPITAL TO MEET BROOKS! HE IS SO CUTE WITH HIS HEAD FULL OF DARK HAIR AND SO TINY! I JUST DONT REMEMBER THE BOYS EVER BEING THAT SMALL MUCH LESS 5 LBS SMALLER THAN HIM. THEY DID REALLY GOOD WITH HIM. AIDEN JUST WANTED TO LOOK AT HIM AND AUSTIN WANTED TO HOLD HIM. I THINK THIS WAS ALITTLE TASTE OF HOW THEY WILL BE WHEN THEIR BABY BROTHER GETS HERE. THEY KNEW THIS WAS NOT THEIR BABY BROTHER AND THAT HE IS STILL IN MOMMYS BELLY! I HOPE THEY DO AS GOOD WITH HIM AS THEY DID WITH BROOKS TODAY!

JEREMY BROOKS COVIN IS HERE!!

HE WEIGHED 7 LBS 11OZS AND HAS A HEAD FULL OF BROWN HAIR. I WISH I HAD PICTURES TO POST,BUT UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE NOT GOTTEN TO MEET HIM YET. I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH PAIN AGAIN AND THOUGHT ANOTHER BLADDER INFECTION AND THEN THE BACK PAIN HIT. IT GOT REALLY BAD FAST, SO OFF TO THE DOCTOR I WENT AGAIN. I HAD A GOOD AMOUNT OF BLOOD IN MY URINE ALONG WITH WHITE BLOOD CELLS AND PROTEIN, AND I WAS DEHYDRATED. THE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY SAID SHE BELIEVED I HAD KIDNEY STONES AND WANTED TO DO A CT SCAN TO CHECK ON THE SIZE AND LOCATION AND MAKE SURE I HAD NO BLOCKAGE IN MY URETERS. I REALLY GOT UPSET BECAUSE THE THOUGHT OF A CT SCAN AND PREGNANT JUST SCARED ME TO DEATH, BUT SHE SAID AT THIS POINT I NEEDED IT AND THE BABY WOULD NOT BE AFFECTED. I WAS ADMITTED AND THEY STARTED IV FLUIDS TO HELP RE-HYDRATED ME AND GAVE ME IV PAIN MEDS. THE CT SCAN SHOWED A LITTLE STONE IN THE LEFT KIDNEY,BUT MY PAIN IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE THAT SHOWED NOTHING. SHE BELIEVES IT IS A STONE THAT IS NOT MADE OF CALCIUM OR A CLUSTER OF SMALL STONES THAT IS NOT SHOWING UP,BUT CAUSING ALL THE PAIN. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS, BUT IT IS THE MOST UNBEARABLE PAIN I HAVE EVER FELT IN MY LIFE. THE ONLY THING TO TREAT THIS IS TO MANAGE THE PAIN AND WAIT FOR THEM TO PASS. I HAD THE CHOICE TO STAY IN THE HOSPITAL FOR PAIN MANAGEMENT OR I COULD COME HOME ON PAIN MEDS AND OF COURSE I CHOSE TO COME HOME. I WOULD MUCH RATHER BE HERE WITH MY BABY BOYS THEN STUCK IN THE HOSPITAL. I AM FEELING BETTER RIGHT NOW AND HOPE THAT IN THE MORNING WHEN I WAKE UP THE PAIN WILL BE GONE. THEY SAY IT COMES AND GOES UNTIL THE STONES ARE GONE, SO PLEASE PRAY THAT THIS PAIN WILL GO AWAY AND I WILL FEEL BETTER. I AM NOT A SICKLY PERSON AND HATE FEELING LIKE THIS AND HATE HAVING TO HAVE THE PAIN MEDS TO EVEN SIT UP. I AM HOPING I FEEL BETTER AND CAN GO MEET MY NEW LITTLE NEPHEW TOMMORROW. MOMMY, DADDY, BIG BROTHER, AND BABY ARE ALL DOING GREAT! WESTON WAS ALITTLE SCARED OF HIM AT FIRST, BUT WARMED UP QUICKLY AND WANTED TO HOLD HIM ALL AFTERNOON! I AM SO HAPPY FOR THEM AND CANT WAIT TO MEET THE BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY!

P.S. I JUST SAW THAT JEFF ACTUALLY UPDATED THEIR BLOG,SO YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT FOR SOME PICTURES OF BROOKS!

BUSY DAY!!

WE HAVE A BUSY DAY TODAY WITH A DOCTORS VISIT FOR AUSTIN TO CHECK UP ON HIS REFLUX AND THEN WE ARE OFF TO THE HOSPITAL TO MEET THEIR NEW BABY COUSIN!! WE ARE SO EXCITED AND CANT WAIT TO MEET THE NEW BABY BOY AND FIND OUT WHAT HIS SECRET NAME IS! I WILL BE SURE TO GET LOTS OF PICTURES SO I CAN SHARE THEM WHEN WE GET HOME! PLEASE REMEMBER JEFF, ASHLEY, AND WESTON IN YOUR PRAYERS TODAY AS THEY GET READY TO WELCOME THEIR BABY BOY. THEY WILL BE BREAKING HER WATER AROUND 12:00, SO HE SHOULD BE HERE SOON. I WILL UPDATE YOU ALL WHEN WE GET HOME!

I ALSO HAVE SOME PICTURES TO SHARE OF OUR FUN NIGHT LAST NIGHT AT THE CIRCUS AND WILL GET THOSE UP TOO! HAVE A GREAT DAY!

MY BIG BOYS!!

THIS WAS AIDENS FIRST TIME TO GET HIS HAIR CUT ALL BY HIMSELF LIKE A BIG BOY WITH NO TEARS!! I WAS SO SHOCKED AND PROUD OF HIM FOR BEING SUCH A BIG BOY! AUSTIN ALWAYS DOES GOOD BECAUSE THAT BOY IS NOT SCARED OF ANYBODY OR ANYTHING! THEY ENJOYED THEIR BLOW POPS AFTER THEIR PRETTY HAIR CUTS!

CAMPING WITH GI GI AND PAW PAW!!

THESE ARE THE PICTURES FROM THEIR CAMPING TRIP WITH GI GI AND PAW PAW WHILE I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL. YOU CAN TELL FROM THE PICTURES THEY HAD FUN AND LOVED IT! I LOVED ALL THE DEER PICTURES AND CANT BELIEVE THEY WERE THAT CLOSE TO THEM. THEY SAID ADIEN WOULD TRY TO PET THEM AND THEY WOULD RUN OFF AND HE WOULD BE SO MAD!

CHASING DEER AND PLAYING IN THE WATER!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANNY!!!

TODAY IS GRANNY'S 74TH BIRTHDAY AND RJ WANTED SO BAD FOR HIS BABY BOY TO COME TODAY, AS DID I,BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. WE WENT TO THE DOCTOR AND NOTHING HAS CHANGED SINCE LAST WEEK EXCEPT FOR A HUGE WEIGHT GAIN BY MOMMY!! JUST TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT WOULD BE A TOTAL OF 8 LBS IN ONE WEEK, YES I SAID 8 LBS!!!!! I ASK THE DOCTOR HOW IN THE WORLD DID I GAIN 8 LBS SITTING IN THE HOSPITAL HALF THE WEEK WITH NO APPETITE AND THEN CAME HOME WITH A STOMACH BUG ON TOP OF THAT. SHE LAUGHED AND SAID IT WAS ALL THE FLUIDS THEY WERE PUMPING ME FULL OF. MY MOM AND MOTHER IN LAW AGREED,BUT I THINK THEY JUST WANTED TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER. I MEAN REALLY, AT LEAST I COULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME EDGAR'S BAKERY AND SOME DAIRY QUEEN BLIZZARDS WHILE GAINING THAT WEIGHT,BUT SERIOUSLY I HAD MY FIRST GOOD MEAL YESTERDAY THANKS TO MY DADDY,BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT WAS 8 LBS WORTH!! ANYWAYS, I FEEL BETTER NOW THAT I GOT THAT ALL OUT IN THE OPEN,SO I GUESS IN MY 38 WEEKS PICTURE YOU CAN ALL WITNESS THIS HUGE BODY I HAVE TAKEN ON THIS PAST WEEK, THANKS TO SOME YUMMY IV FLUIDS:)!! OH WELL, I KNOW IT IS ALL WORTH IT AND I HOPE THIS MEANS WE WILL HAVE A BIG AND HEALTHY BABY! I FORGOT TO TELL YOU ALL HE IS NOW 6LBS 12 OZ'S ACCORDING TO THE LAST ULTRASOUND,SO I THINK HE IS ON HIS WAY TO A BIG AND HEALTHY BOY! I PRAYED ALL NIGHT AND DAY FOR HIM TO COME TODAY,BUT I THINK GOD AND GRANNY MUST WANT HIM TO BAKE ALITTLE LONGER! IT WOULD BE SPECIAL TO HAVE HIM TODAY BECAUSE RJS GRANNY MEANT SO MUCH TO HIM, BUT THAT IS OKAY! WE WISH SHE WERE HERE WITH US TO SPOIL ALL THESE GRAND BABIES,BUT I KNOW SHE IS WATCHING OVER THEM IN HEAVEN! I WISH I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MEET HER, BUT I FEEL LIKE I KNOW HER FROM ALL OF RJS STORIES. I AM SURE SHE WAS AN AMAZING WOMAN AND I KNOW SHE SPOILED RJ TO DEATH AND MEANT THE WORLD TO HIM! WE WISH YOU A HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANNY AND MISS YOU VERY MUCH!!

UPDATE!!

WELL, I THINK IT IS SAFE TO SAY I AM NOW BACK TO JUST A NORMAL, FAT AND PREGNANT LADY THAT IS READY FOR THIS TO BE OVER!! I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SAY THAT UNTIL NOW,BUT I AM READY:)!! AFTER THIS PAST WEEK AND ON TOP OF ALL THAT, RJ AND I BROUGHT HOME A LOVELY STOMACH BUG FROM THE HOSPITAL THAT KEPT US BOTH UP ALL NIGHT LAST NIGHT, I AM READY TO BE SOMEWHAT NORMAL AGAIN:)! I EVEN ACTUALLY WALKED FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES TODAY HOPING I COULD MOVE THINGS ALONG, BUT I AM SURE I DID NOTHING! I GUESS WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE TOMORROW! I AM THANKFUL THAT ALL THE SICKNESS IS OVER AND I JUST FEEL THE ACHES AND PAIN OF BEING 9 MONTHS PREGNANT AND CAN ACTUALLY SPEND THESE LAST FEW WEEKS, OR IF I AM LUCKY DAYS, ENJOYING THE BOYS! I DID TAKE THEM TO GET A MUCH NEEDED HAIR CUT TODAY AND I ABOUT PASSED OUT WHEN AIDEN GOT UP IN THE CHAIR LIKE A BIG BOY AND DID NOT SHED A TEAR. I DIDN'T KNOW IF I SHOULD BE HAPPY OR SAD BECAUSE THAT JUST MEANS HE IS GROWING UP:(! WE ARE TAKING THEM TO THE DOCTOR VISIT WITH US TOMORROW AND THIS WILL BE THEIR FIRST TIME. WE FIGURED SINCE WE ARE ALMOST TO THE END AND AIDEN WAS SCARED TO DEATH WHEN HE VISITED ME THAT IT MIGHT ME A GOOD THING TO GET HIM ALITTLE MORE USED TO THE HOSPITAL THING! I WILL UPDATE YOU ALL AFTER OUR DOCTORS VISIT AND HOPEFULLY GET CAUGHT UP ON THE BLOG. I HAVE SOME CUTE VIDEOS OF THE BOYS SINGING TOO THAT I NEED TO POST, SO MABEY I CAN GET THAT DONE!

ALL BUNDLED UP!!

THESE WERE FROM MADISON'S PARTY AND IT WAS A BIT NIPPY THAT DAY! THE BOYS DID NOT SEEM TO MIND AND WANTED TO BE OUTSIDE THE WHOLE TIME! I LOVE THE LOOK ON AIDENS FACE IN THE SECOND PICTURE, HE MAKES THAT FACE ALOT WHEN HE IS REALLY TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT HE IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT:)! AUSTIN WAS REALLY WANTING TO RIDE MADISON'S FOUR WHEELER AND I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE IF WE WOULD HAVE LET HIM,BUT I THINK HE STILL NEEDS ANOTHER YEAR TO GROW BEFORE HE GETS A SHOT AT THE REAL THING:)!

THEY LOVE PAPA JOE........

AND HE LOVES THEM!! THE BOYS HAD FUN WITH PAPA JOE AND SUCKERED HIM INTO SWINGING THEM MOST OF THE DAY WHILE AT MADISON'S PARTY IN THE FREEZING COLD!! I THOUGHT THESE WERE SWEET PICTURES OF THEM ALL!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MADISON!

WELL, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER! WE CELEBRATED MADISONS BIRTHDAY LAST SUNDAY AND AS YOU CAN SEE THE BOYS HAD A BALL, BUT ALL THE ADULTS WERE FREEZING! IT IS JUST AMAZING WHAT THEIR LITTLE BODIES CAN HANDLE AND NOTHING SEEM TO FACE THEM! THEY HAD FUN AND I STILL CANT BELIEVE MADISON IS 4! SHE IS SUCH A PRETTY AND SMART LITTLE GIRL AND WE LOVE HER VERY MUCH!

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND COMMENTS

I AM FEELING MUCH BETTER TODAY AND WILL HOPEFULLY BE GOING HOME IN JUST A LITTLE WHILE. WE ARE STILL NOT SURE WHAT WAS GOING ON,BUT THE ANTIBIOTICS SEEM TO HAVE WORKED. MY POTASSIUM WAS BACK TO NORMAL AND MY WHITE BLOOD COUNT WAS BACK TO NORMAL. THE URINE CULTURE HAD NOT GROWN ANYTHING AS OF YESTERDAY, EITHER, BUT IT STILL POSSIBLY COULD. WITH THE HIGH FEVERS AND HIGH WHITE BLOOD COUNT IT WAS DEFINITELY SOMETHING, BUT THEY CANNOT PINPOINT IT. MY BACK IS FEELING MUCH BETTER, STILL NOT 100%, YOU CAN IMAGINE AFTER BEING LAID UP IN A HOSPITAL BED FOR 3 DAYS AND 3 NIGHTS IT IS PRETTY ACHY AND TIGHT ON TOP OF ALL THE PAIN,BUT I AM JUST GLAD THE FEVERS ARE GONE AND BLOOD WORK IS BACK TO NORMAL. THE BABY IS DOING GOOD AND I AM STILL CONTRACTING,BUT NOTHING THAT IS TIME ABLE. I HAVE BEEN SO WORRIED ABOUT HOW ALL OF THIS MEDICINE WILL AFFECT HIM, BUT THEY HAVE RE-ASSURED ME HE IS OKAY AND I NEED TO JUST GET BETTER. SO HOPEFULLY, THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME THAT I AM HERE WITHOUT GETTING READY TO MEET HIS SWEET FACE! I GO BACK TO SEE MY DOCTOR ON TUESDAY, SO WE WILL KNOW MORE ABOUT THAT THEN. I THINK HE MAY JUST BE WAITING LIKE A GOOD BOY ON HIS SCHEDULED DATE)! THAT IS FINE WITH ME BECAUSE I WANT TO BE BACK TO 100%,SO I CAN SPEND SOME TIME WITH THE BOYS BEFORE HE GETS HERE AND BE RESTED UP WHEN HE DOES DECIDED COME. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR US AND I CANNOT THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH FOR YOU THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS AND ALL THE COMMENTS! WE LOVE YOU ALL AND WILL KEEP YOU ALL UPDATED!



I AM READY TO SEE MY BABY BOYS!! THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING A BALL CAMPING WITH GI GI AND PAW PAW. THEY HAVE BEEN CHASING DEER AND FEEDING THEM OUT OF THEIR HANDS SO HOPEFULLY GI GI HAS SOME PICTURES FOR ME THAT I CAN SHARE. THEY ARE HEADED HOME NOW TOO,SO I AM ANXIOUS TO SEE THEM. I WILL UPDATE YOU ALL AGAIN, BUT FOR NOW I AM GOING TO GET RESTED UP SO I CAN PLAY WITH THEM LATER!

UPDATE ON MOMMY AND BABY!

WELL, AFTER OUR LAST DOCTOR'S VISIT ON TUESDAY MOMMY HAS WENT DOWN HILL. I STARTED FEELING BAD THAT MORNING LIKE I WAS GETTING A BLADDER INFECTIONS AND MENTIONED IT TO THEM AND THAT MAYBE HE HAD DROPPED AND WAS CAUSING THE DISCOMFORT. WELL, HE HAD NOT DROPPED AND SO I WENT HOME. WHEN I WOKE UP WEDNESDAY MORNING I HAD BLOOD IN MY URINE, SO I CALLED THE NURSE. THEY CALLED ME IN SOME ANTIBIOTICS, BUT ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER I GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH HER I WAS HAVING CONSTANT SEVERE BACK PAIN ON MY RIGHT SIDE IN THE KIDNEY AREA. I AM HARD HEADED AND DO NOT LIKE COMPLAINING, SO I SUFFERED THROUGH THE REST OF THE DAY AND GOT NO SLEEP THAT NIGHT. IT WAS STILL JUST AS BAD ON THURSDAY, SO I CALLED AND WENT IN TO SEE THE DOCTOR. THEY CHECKED MY URINE AND I HAD SOME WHITE BLOOD CELLS AND PROTEIN IN IT, SO SHE KNEW I HAD ALITTLE BLADDER INFECTION. THE BACK PAIN HAS BEEN THE WORSE AND THE WAY I DESCRIBED IT TO HER SHE ASSUMED IT WAS KIDNEY STONES AND ORDERED AND ULTRASOUND. THEY DID NOT SEE ANY STONES, BUT SAID THAT IS VERY POSSIBLE TO MISS THEM ON AN ULTRASOUND. THE RIGHT KIDNEY WAS ENLARGED AND BACKED UP WHICH COULD BE DUE TO PREGNANCY ALSO, SO SHE WANTED TO START ANTIBIOTICS FOR THE BLADDER INFECTIONS AND PAIN MEDS FOR THE POSSIBLE STONE. THEY SENT MY URINE CULTURES OFF TO THE LAB TO CHECK FOR KIDNEY INFECTION. SHE SAID IF I STARTED HAVING CHILLS OR SPIKED FEVERS THEN TO CALL BACK RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE A SURE SIGN OF A BIGGER INFECTION. SO I LEFT AND WENT BY THE PHARMACY AND HEADED HOME. THIS WHOLE TIME I HAD THE CHILLS AND FELT THE WORSE I HAVE IN MY LIFE. WHEN I FINALLY GO HOME TO CHECK MY TEMP. IS WAS 102.9, WHICH SCARED ME TO DEATH. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE NURSE AND SHE PAGED THE DOCTOR AND THEY SAID TO HEAD TO LABOR AND DELIVERY. SO THAT IS WHERE WE ARE NOW. I HAVE BEEN ON IV ANTIBIOTICS, PAIN PILLS, AND 10000 MG TYLENOL TRYING TO KEEP THE FEVER DOWN. IT SPIKED ALL NIGHT LAST NIGHT AND THE BACK PAIN IS STILL KILLING ME, BUT THE MEDS SEEM TO HELP CONTROL IT. I HAVE BEEN SO WORRIED ABOUT THE BABY, BUT THEY ASSURE US HE IS OKAY. THE ONLY THING IS THAT HIS HEART RATE GOES WAY UP WHEN MY FEVER IS WAY UP,SO WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO STAY ON TOP OF THAT. THE URINE CULTURES WILL HOPEFULLY BE BACK SOMETIME THIS AFTERNOON.

MI MI HAS BEEN TAKING CARE OF THE BOYS FOR ME THIS WEEK AND I THANK GOD FOR THAT BECAUSE I WAS JUST IN TERRIBLE PAIN AND IT HURT TO EVEN BREATHE. I KNOW THAT THEY HAD FUN,BUT I AM SURE SHE IS WORN OUT! THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEST MI MI! GI GI AND PAW PAW GOT THEM LAST NIGHT AND BROUGHT THEM TO SEE US. IT BROKE MY HEART FOR THEM TO SEE ME LIKE THIS BECAUSE AIDEN WAS SO SCARED AND JUST DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE WOULD NOT EVEN SIT IN THE BED WITH ME. HE DID LET PAW PAW HOLD HIM WHILE HE GAVE ME A KISS. AUSTIN ON THE OTHER HAND WAS JUST ALL OVER THE PLACE CHECKING EVERYTHING OUT AND CLIMBING IN MY BED, BUT WHEN IT WAS TIME TO GO HE DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE. HE JUST CRIED AND CRIED BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO SLEEP IN MOMMYS BED! I MISS THEM SO MUCH BECAUSE I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO SEE THEM HARDLY ANY THIS WEEK, BUT I KNOW THEY ARE HAVING FUN. GI GI AND PAW PAW ARE TAKING THEM IN THE MOTORHOME TO LAKE GUNTERSVILLE TO CAMP TODAY, SO I KNOW THEY WILL LOVE THAT! THANK YOU GI GI AND PAW PAW FOR TAKING CARE OF OUR BABY BOY! PLEASE PRAY FOR THEM AND THEIR SAFTEY AS THEY TRAVEL!

I WILL TRY TO UPDATE YOU ALL MORE WHEN WE KNOW MORE,BUT PLEASE JUST PRAY THAT THIS INFECTION GOES AWAYS AND WE GET TO GO HOME TO OUR SWEET BOYS SOON! PLEASE PRAY THAT THE BABY CONTINUES TO DO GOOD AND NONE OF THIS AFFECTS HIM. THANK YOU ALL I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED.

BABY UPDATE!!

WE WENT TO THE DOCTOR TODAY AND NOT MUCH IS GOING ON. I DID GAIN ANOTHER 3 LBS AND THE BELLY IS MEASURING RIGHT ON TIME! I AM 1/2 CM DILATED.......IF THAT REALLY COUNTS:)!! I AM NOW OFF THE MEDICINE AND IT IS JUST A WAIT AND SEE GAME FROM HERE! DR. BENTON SAID THAT I COULD GO A DAY, 3-4 DAYS, A WEEK, OR EVEN SEVERAL WEEKS BEFORE I GO INTO LABOR. SHE SAID IT JUST DEPENDS ON THE PERSON AND THEIR BODY, SO WE JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE! EITHER WAY HE WILL BE HERE FEBUARY 13TH AND I AM OKAY IF HE WANTS TO WAIT UNTIL THEN! I JUST WANT HIM TO BE FAT AND HEALTHY! WE WILL GO BACK NEXT TUESDAY, SO I WILL UPDATE THEN!

I STILL HAVE PICTURES TO POST OF MADISONS PARTY, BUT I DONT HAVE THEM UPLOADED YET! I DID NOT GET ANY OF OUR FUN DAY YESTERDAY BECAUSE CHUCKY E CHEESE WAS A ZOO WITH ALL THE KIDS OUT OF SCHOOL YESTERDAY. I HAD MY HANDS FULL TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH THEM. WE HAD FUN AND WENT TO EAT LUNCH WITH DADDY AND THEN WE WENT TO THE STORE SO THEY COULD PICK OUT SOME CUPCAKES TO MAKE AND WE CAME HOME AND BAKED! I ENJOYED SPENDING THE DAY WITH THEM AND I KNOW THEY HAD FUN TOO!

I LOVE THESE BOYS!!!!!

THE BOYS WERE BEING SILLY AND POSING FOR ME BEFORE WE LEFT FOR GRIFFIN'S BIRTHDAY PARTY,SO I HAD TO GET SOME PICTURES!! THEY LOOK SO GROWN UP, BUT I GUESS THAT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE! THEY ARE NOW 2 1/2 YEARS OLD:(!! I MAKES ME SAD,BUT I LOVE THE STAGE THEY ARE IN NOW. THEY CAN CARRY ON COVERSATIONS AND JUST KNOW SO MUCH! THEY ARE LIKE LITTLE "SPONGES" AND JUST SOAK UP EVERYTHING YOU SAY TO THEM AND CAN REMEMBER EVEN THE SMALLEST DETAILS! IT JUST AMAZES ME AND I LOVE TO JUST SIT AND WATCH THEM! WE ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING FUN TOMMORROW JUST IN CASE LITTLE BROTHER DECIDES TO COME SOON AFTER I STOP THE MEDICINE! I WANTED TO CARRY THEM TO BUILD A BEAR BECAUSE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN AND I THINK THEY WOULD ENJOY IT, BUT I MENTIONED CHUCKY E CHEESE AND THAT IS ALL THEY HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT SINCE,SO I WILL LET THEM DECIDE TOMMORROW! I STILL HAVE PICTURES TO POST FROM MADISON'S PARTY TODAY AND I AM SURE I WILL HAVE EVEN MORE FROM OUR FUN DAY TOMMORROW , SO I WILL TRY TO GET THOSE ALL UP TOO! I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK!
