Twilight


So this summer Cory and I decided that it would be a good idea to read the Twilight books together.  It was a lot of fun and we both really enjoyed them...ok we LOVED them and like everyone else couldnt put them down until we read all four.  (I even was die hard and stood in line for the fourth book so we could take it on vaca. with us the next day.)  Well we are on our way to see the movie right now so we will let you know what we think.

Some highlights from this week





In the clear

So we went to the Dr. today and he says all is well. My placenta is still low but its not enough to worry about so we are good to go. He did however tell us that she is 2.5 lbs already and that I must be eating plenty of "peas and carrots" haha I took that as she is big and you need to start eating more peas and carrots and not as much of the other junk you are eating cause you baby is HUGE!!! HAHA o well what can you do. R was a big baby at 8 lb 6 oz so it doesn't surprise me one bit that this baby is "healthy" too. I just hope my Dr. lets me go a week early like I did before so I am not pushing out a 10 pounder. OUCH!!! We got to see her on the ultra sound again today and it really is amazing that she is in there with all her parts where they are supposed to be. I love watching the heart and seeing the four chambers beating. It truly is an amazing site to see. Its times like these that the is no denying that there is a God and only He could create such perfection.

SURPRISE!!!!

On Friday my sister threw my niece a surprise birthday party!!! It was darling to say the least.  My nieces real birthday isn't until the 19th but one of her very best friends has recently moved to "Newtah" (Utah- my niece used to say that haha) and since she was visiting my sister decided to throw my niece an early party.  It was so cute my niece had no idea. I picked her up from the bus stop and that was exciting enough and then when we walked through the door all of her very bestest said "SURPRISE"  she loved being the cause for celebration, even though she didn't really understand what they were all doing there since her birthday isn't for two weeks, she luckily caught on very quickly when her friends began singing Happy Birthday. 

For the activity portion of the party my sister got really creative.  About two months ago my niece was in the hospital for 3 days with phenomia while she was there the nurses gave her some very cute toys and things to pass the time.  So my sister wanted to give back to the hospital by having the girls do a service project. She had them tie fleece blankets and later this week they will take them to the hospital.  It was so cute to see the girls work so hard at trying to tie the blankets.  Some of the friends are a little younger and they were so not into tying haha so they just playing the the playroom but my niece is into "arts and crafts" right now and it was the best thing in the world to her.  

Next they made individual pizzas. Ate popcorn while they waited for them to cook and ended the night with cupcakes and presents and goody bags.  

It was a birthday to remember for my little "Poop"  (thats what I have called her since she was born)

Z Pack


Does anyone else get chronic sinus infections.  I mean seriously I probably get two or three a year.  Now I am not just talking about the runny nose itchy eye allergy type, I am talking about the temple throbing, teeth clenching, eye aching, pounding head ache, wake you up in the middle of the night type.  Seriously this one is bad. Its effecting me worse than most in the past.  Its painful to even be on the computer right now but its even more painful without the distraction.  Thank goodness for antibiotics.  But taking them is stressing me out too because when I am pregnant I try not to take any meds.  AAAAWWW I hate this loose loose situation I am in.  Z pack please work fast.
