Rain Rain Go Away

It is still raining and now the weather forcast says it won't be done until tomorrow, what happened to it being done today? It will really nice this weekend which is supposed to be 70 and Sunny, a perfect Easter if you ask me. My kids are excited about Easter being so close, well not Mike, I don't think he really knows what's going on, but Eric and Leah remember. Mikey didn't go to bed until 10:30pm last night so is still sleeping, yeah, I get a little quiet time. Normally when I take a nap I do it when Mike is sleeping also, that way Ben gets a break. We get to go to my folks for Easter and Conference. The kids are excited to go to Grammy's. I told Leah for her birthday she could pick out a pinata at the party store and we'd do goodie bags and cake and ice cream. It should be fun. We're getting her a scooter and a helmet and I found one of those bathing suit dresses at the store, it's sort of like towel material. All Eric wants for his birthday is "How to Train Your Dragon" stuff, so that will be easy. I will try to remember to take pictures on Easter. A good Easter to all!

Haircuts

Yesterday I took Mikey to get his hair cut at Walmart, it was time for the official haircut. You have to understand how apprehensive I was but he did great, he was fabulous, sat there like a big boy. Then today Leah wanted her hair cut so we went to work, Leah I am sad to say is not as easy to do, she moved around a lot but she wanted it short so that is what I did. Luckily she forgot about the makeup part. But I must say she looks very cute, like a pixie.

Here is Mike:

A Cloudy Day

It is a cloudy day out today,it looks like it might rain. I got to sleep in this morning, it was wonderful, eventually I had to get up to eat. I have 4 more weeks of this pregnancy left. Yesterday night I was feeling like I needed some fresh air, so I went and walked at the track, I did a couple of laps in 15 minutes, then I went over to a friends house for a few minutes, and headed over to Pattys to talk about Visiting Teaching. I had a good evening and my mom invited us to go to Conference with them on Sunday the 4th and then Easter dinner. A lot is going next month, Easter, Leah's Birthday, and a new baby. The Dentist told Ben that we need to start weening Mike from his pacifier, I said, not yet, not with a new baby coming, he's going to need it, but we are trying to only give it to him to sleep, he's doing pretty well.

We are heading to the Post Office and then to the library. Did I mention that Ben got a calling as assistant Scout Master, he's so excited and since Eric will be going into scouts in May it's a good idea. The only problem I had with it was that I am the Activity Days assistant, and they are the same night at the same time, go figure. We figure though, if they want us they will let us do every other week, we'll see how it goes.

At the Park

I took the kids to the park this morning after recycling my bottles. My parents give me their bottles too and I get money for movies and stuff for the kids. We went to the park this morning and it was gorgeous out, over 60 degrees, Leah decided she wanted to roller skate yesterday, so decided to bring them and give them another try, not very good and I didn't get a lot of pictures, but Mikey was so cute at the park and was practicing going down the slide by himself. So here are some pics.


Eric Made these 2 things:

Pregnancy

I guess I didn't understand just how hard it would be to be pregnant and diabetic. When it first happens it is very hard to accept, but then it's not so hard, pricking your finger sucks but giving yourself shots isn't too bad. The terrible part is being pregnant and not being able to eat, it is basically like being on a diet while you want everything to eat. In other words, IT SUCKS! I have 4 weeks to go before I'm 38 weeks and then they will induce me, this little guy looks just like Eric did when I carried him. So cute and chubby and big. A little daunting but I can't wait to meet him. I wish my friend from Oregon was here, she is such a comfort too me, but she lives very far away. Anyways, I went to the doctors today and they wouldn't give me my estimate of how big he is only that they would tell me next week, I thought the whole idea of a BBP was to tell you how the baby is doing. Ben took Mike to the dentist this morning and the Dr was impressed with the amount of teeth Mikey has, he had all of his teeth by the time he was 10 months including his molars. The Dr. told Ben to start weening him off his nuk in the nexst 2 months, unreal since we are getting ready to disturbe him being the baby to add another one, not going to happen yet. I told Ben maybe by this fall, he only needs it at night anyway, my husband just uses it as a crutch. Hoping to get some pictures on here soon, hopefully going to the park tomorrow, it's supposed to be beautiful. Freaky weather for March but I love it.

Jumping Off

This is the first time that I have thought of blogging but I so enjoy reading everyone elses blogs and like to talk so I figured how hard could it be? Besides I have a lot of family that blogs and would like to join them.
