Funny Story

Ok, so I think this proves that kids love their aunts and uncles more than their parents. :) Just joking, but man last night sure could have changed my mind.

Last night we got home from a weekend in Centralia at about 9:30, so Braylon was probably tired since it is past his bedtime. But he has NEVER done this before. As soon as we pulled into the driveway he just starts throwing a HUGE fit. His exact words, "I don't want to go home. I go to Ryan's." He was so pissed the we were at home and not at his Uncle Ryan's house. It took us probably 15 minutes to get him calmed down. He just kept screaming at us that he wanted to go to Ryan's house and nothing was changing his mind. Through all the tears that were shed, it was still pretty cute! At lease once a week he says that he wants to go to Ryan's house, but never on our way home and not quite to this degree. I told Ryan that he is just going to have to take him home with him next time. :)

Just proves that Braylon LOVES his Uncle Ryan!

25 Weeks!

How far along? 25 weeks
Total Weight Gain/Loss? According to the doctors office 0lbs, but according to my scale 4lbs.

Maternity clothes? Yes
Stretch marks? No new ones, I think ;)
Sleep: This week? BAD. With Braylon being sick, having to get up to go to the bathroom, and having to change sides every hour because my hip starts hurting, needless to say it is lacking.
Best moment this week: Seeing Avery move under my shirt. She is just getting stronger and stronger every day.
Movement: Oh yes, Chris and Braylon have felt her. She is packing some good punches lately, but I can also just feel her rolling over in long drawn out motions. I like those better!
Food cravings: Nothing really, I just LOVE to eat! I get so hungry all the time now.
Gender: Girl
Labor Signs: Nothing!
Belly Button in or out? Getting more and more shallow. Its starting to look less like a belly button.
What I am looking forward to: Making it to my 3rd trimester in a couple weeks!
Weekly Wisdom: Only 5 weeks till Christmas!!!!! :)
Milestones: I guess having Chris and Braylon really feel her move. Watching her move!

Sinus & Ear Infection

Well, Braylon is at home with me today with a sinus and ear infection. He started running a fever last night, so Chris set up an doctors appointment for this morning. Sure enough he has a couple of infections. Explains the many many sleepless nights. Hopefully the antibiotics start to kick in and we are able to rest well today and tonight. He is acting completely fine right now. I am kind of hoping he is going to want to snuggle later on. I don't just get to spend the entire day just him and me very often.

My doctors appointment went great yesterday as well. Braylon was the doctors little assistant and got to hold the Doppler and help her get Avery's heart rate. He was so excited. She did an amazing job making him feel SO important! I am measuring a week big, but no biggy. I just love getting to hear her heartbeat!

1st Snow Sighting

We had our first snow sighting this morning! There was just enough snow to cover the ground and vehicles. Braylon was super excited about it. But, him and I didn't get very much sleep last night and we are EXHAUSTED. He decided to be awake from 12:30 to 5:00 this morning. I am completely dragging at work right now. He kept complaining that his teeth and tummy hurt. He has a head cold (goopy eyes, running nose, cough), so now I am concerned that he has a ear infection. I'm not sure why else he would be complaining about his teeth. He hasn't ran a fever yet, so we are going to see how today and tonight go. I am just hoping he is my fantastic sleeper tonight. I NEED some rest.

I have a doctors appointment today! It was supposed to be last Tuesday, but my doctor got called into surgery and cancelled all appointments. I am excited to hear Avery's heartbeat and be assured everything still looks great!

Hopefully this nasty weather doesn't stick around too much longer and it is a nice weekend. This is our fist weekend home in over a month! I am very excited about that!!!
