Brady singing Taylor Swift

So Brady and I are both big Taylor Swift fans, he just loves "Our Song" by her and wants me to play it all of the time in the truck. He calls the song "slammin' screen door" - that is a verse from the song! Here he is live singing it on Saturday on our way up to the Home Depot. Excuse me singing along, it was hard not too, plus I was trying to make him keep singing the song!

This makes me giggle every time I hear it!

Bean doesn't like yelling!!

Just alittle funny about the bean. Rodney and I were discussing a few things with Bailey about trading at school and we told him to go get his backpack and bring it to the table. Well he went to get it and tried to sneak in his room with it, so I yelled at him 3 times to get his butt in the kitchen with his backpack, bean apparentley didn't like mommy yelling at his big bother because he kicked me so hard it made my eyes water!!! I feel movement all the time, but nothing like that, holy cow! I think I read that at this stage they can't hear what is going on outside the womb, but I beg to differ! I do have to say that bean better get used to the louder voices, we have to use them alot on both boys!!! LOL

Week 23

Non pregnant people are so funny! We went to Bailey's wrestling banquet lastnight and I had on an outfit that really showed my belly and it is just funny to watch people (that we didin't know) look at your face then look at your belly then quick look away! Rodney even noticed it! I wonder what people think when they see "the belly" because honestly I don't do that to other people. I just found that very interesting and rather annoying, but then again I am easily annoyed lately too! LOL

So here we are week 23, not feeling too bad, occassionally feeling sick, but nothing like before, I think I can handle that! I feel pretty good for the most part, my belly does get really sore and heavy later in the day though and my back kills me! I don't remember that feeling this early with either of the boys, so I am alittle concerned about why so early, maybe I am just paranoid or maybe it is from all the weight I have gained, or maybe this baby will be a big baby! LOL

Speaking of that I got a letter from my doctor stating the last U/S was good and everything looked great! That was a relief to read that letter!! So my next appointment is not until the 27th of May, I was really getting tired of going to the doctor all of the time, so that will be nice to just go to my check ups monthly.

Finally the weather is getting nice out, I am anxiously awaiting to plant my flowers and to plant our first garden! We have never had a garden before so this should be interesting what the outcome will be, but it will be fun trying I guess! If it is a flop, then so be it I guess, we tried and will learn from that! Anyway that is our project for this weekend, should be fun and dirty, but I am sure the boys will have fun, especially my little helper Brady!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day is such an interesting day. I usually end up telling the boys that they have to be extra special good on this day for me since every day is Childrens Day, they actually weren't too bad!

The day started off with Bailey making me breakfast in bed all by himself! Keep in mind Rodney was gone fishing so he had no help!! Bailey comes into my room with a tray (cookie sheet) filled with a bowl of cereal, peanut butter toast barely toasted, sting cheese and a cup of apple juice, what a wonderful little boy we have raised! The boys then had their last day of Sunday School which they were thrilled about, my mom gave me alittle break by picking them up so I had a few minutes to myself I decided to make some cimanmon rolls and serve them warm when they all walked in the door, so we ate cinamon rolls and strawberries. The boys and I then just hung out while I dosed on the chair for a minute. After lunch they begged me to take them to the park, I figured what the heck and we went, after the park we proceeded to visit the other grandmothers in our lives. By that time Rodney was home to watch the boys so I could dig and pull weeds by our rock and get it ready for planting flowers. The rest of the night was pretty much relaxing while chowing down a strawberry malt from the DI!! LOL

All in all it was a nice day, still nothing like kids day though!!!

Week 22

Why does pregnancy make you so crabby? Or maybe it doesn't and I am just crabby all the time, I don't like it and I am so mean to everyone and very bitter, honestly I am usually not like that, I am usually a pretty sweet person. Well hopefully that will come back after bean is born - sorry if it doesn't!! LOL

So here we are week 22 feeling pretty good, alittle tired and obviously as I stated moody, ok very moody, but honestly I think I have every right to be! LOL It is getting hard to sleep at night, but then again it has been for awhile, my back really bothers me and I toss and turn and get up a go to the bathroom several time, wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to get up and function every morning and throughout the day! The whole going to the bathroom every 20 minutes is for the birds, it is 10 times worse now preggo since I normally drink alot of water in the day, and when I have to go, get the heck out of my way and it hurts!

Other than that not much else going on, seems like May is a very busy month. Lots of activities at Baileys school, sign up for different summer things, weddings and wedding showers, all that fun stuff that keeps us going!

So until next week.....

Missing teeth

Too bad it isn't Christmas time!! LOL
I just had to post this. He lost one top tooth about 2 weeks ago and then the other one last week!! He is pretty proud of himself that he doesn't have any teeth in front!

Third U/S- He is growing!

We had our 3rd and hopefully final U/S lastnight, not that I don't like seeing the little guy, but it always scares me when they request additonal U/S's and testing!

We made a night of it, everyone went with me! I actually thought the boys would of loved it more than they did, but they were pretty mellow and really didn't ask any questions. The only question I got was from Bailey and I knew it was coming, "is it still a boy?" LOL She did check and he is still a boy!! LOL They both seemed ok with that even though Brady still calls him a "girl baby". She said everything looked good, he is now 1 lb and measuring right along with the due date. His heart rate was 144 bpm. So I guess we wait for the doctors to review it and call me to ensure that things are good. I love the waiting game!!


Another thing I always wondered, why does a person have to have an U/S with a full bladder? I about died yesterday when we got there, thankfully she was nice and did her thing and let me go and come back to continue! The boys thought it was pretty funny to see me suffer I guess! Stinkers!
