************************************************************

 

Size of baby: about 7 ounces about the size of a bell pepper

 

Total Weight gain or loss: Gain about 5-7 lbs. Not really sure , every scale is different!

 

Gender: Finding out Oct. 2nd!

 

Movement: It's weird to me how sometimes I think I feel it and sometimes I feel like I am crazy. When I lay down flat, you can feel and see a bulge from my stomach of exactly where the baby is at. Crazyness...

 

Symptoms: Still feeling pretty good! No sickness and just tired in the afternoons. When I start to hurt I lay down and Daddy Jake takes over for the afternoon =)

 

Cravings: Nothing really yet. All though I have just recently bought some Mint Chocolate Ice cream that I like to eat before bed. Man that junk is good!

 

What I miss: Nothing really... My skin still has its moments.

 

 

What I am looking forward too: I am thrilled to know that in just one week we will get to see you again at the doctor and know what you are and your name!! Well I guess we have your name, ha. We are still debating in this department. Kaleb thinks you are a sister and your name is Lilly. =)

 

I have ordered some "details" for the gender party and I am so excited!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Weekend Excitment!

So Friday was exciting because I got to come home early... Not a planned thing. Kaleb was sick and had a fever. I took him to the doctor and strep came back negative. I was glad I got to spend my afternoon with him. I never liked to be called from Daycare, but I was missing my little bugger.

 

Saturday had some excitement because I got to shop around Hoover while little man stayed home with Daddy.=) The day was gorgeous and I loved being able to do anything! I went to babies R Us and got more for my "stock pile" and then to Hobby Lobby for the wreaths. Let me just say the wreaths are not my finest work.  Its over and done with and the next wreath I make will be for hospital on the door,  in fact I may just buy that one, haha!

Jake and I had nothing planned except for on Sunday and that fell through.. SO he cut grass Saturday and laid around with Kaleb. After Kaleb's fever went down Friday night, he then developed a rash. This rash has now taken over... He feels fine.. Just looks a little weird.

Sunday I kept him from church since I wasn't to sure about his rash. Jake went and played golf. Kaleb and I were invited to come and ride with him on the last 9 holes. You have no idea how huge this was for Kaleb. Jake made is DAY!!! and Kaleb made Daddy's Day!!!
You hear of little boys loving baseball and playing T-ball when they turn 3.. Well this little sucker plays golf in the yard 24/7. He was stoked he got to play with him!! Looks like I may need to buy him a real " youth " set from Santa!

Today , after calling the nurse, We have concluded that Kaleb has " Hand , Foot , Mouth Diease"
He didnt go to school today, Hoping he can go tomorrow. Prayers for little dude, that he feels better!!

Happy Friday!

Happy Friday the 13th!!

 

 

 

Does anyone like watching Scary Movies on Friday the 13th? I do!!!

 

 

I am so freaking glad today is Friday... I can not wait to be done with work for the day and be home for the weekend. We have nothing huge planned over the weekend. Our bulldogs are off this weekend so we are up for anything! Tomorrow I am planning on driving over to Babies R US and purchasing more for the "STOCK PILE" =) I have some coupons that I need to use. Then I plan on running over to Hobby Lobby and getting some things to make a few wreaths! I don't usually make them, so wish me luck!! Ill post pictures next week of the finished results!

I have requested to the sweet hubs to wash my car =) and steaks on the grill tonight! yummy!! =)

 

Sunday is church day and for naps. Looking forward to it!!

 

Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday and safe weekend!
