The kiddos!

This week has been so much better! Nothing out of the ordinary and thats the way I like it. Camden had his well care check up on Monday and is just growing out of control. He is now 29lbs. 34 1/2 in long and is in the 95% on everything. He is really starting to try to talk and verbalize things. He is also starting to throw fits which at times is quite amusing and at other times just flat out irritates me. The next time he does it, I am going to try to get it on camera so that I can share with all of you and of course keep it until graduation day!!!

Anyhow, Maeci is playing basketball and she loves it!! That makes me so happy! She is the only 4 year old on a team of 5 year old boys and 1 other girl. She really likes it and my team is doing very well. We don't keep score but you know that I keep score in my mind and we have won both of our games. So, if you are bored on a Saturday and you want to be entertained, you need to come and watch these cute little kids play basketball. It really is one of the cutest things that I have ever seen!!

As for the 3rd, I am going back to the Dr. tomorrow for a check-up. I am 11 weeks and starting to feel a bit better I think. My energy is beginning to come back and the sickness is starting to slow down a bit. Thank goodness for that!! Hopefully everything goes well tomorrow. I am sure that it will. The countdown is on...only 9 weeks until we find out what baby #3 is!!

Insanity at its worst!!!

Oh my goodness, I have never been so exhausted in my life!!! With baby #3 on the way and my iron being pretty low, that already makes for a tough time but this week has been awful. Last Saturday, we had our 1st Upwards basketball game and my little kindergarteners totally surprised me by winning our first game. It was soo fun coaching them. Saturday night, Camden threw up in his bed and so of course we were up half of the night with him. Sunday we didn't go to church and I spent the whole day doing throw up laundry. Monday he had fever and nasty diapers so I spent another exhausting day doing laundry. Tuesday at work was terrible. I had to call 3 parents to come and deal with their misbehaving children that I wanted to spank myself. Wednesday work was much better and I thought that the week was on the downhill slope, when after church Maeci informed me that her tummy hurt. Before I even had a chance to pull over, she proceded to throw up in my car. I really felt sorry for her because she had to sit in it until we got home. We got home, got her bathed and taken care of, then came the exhausting task of taking her car seat apart and cleaning it as well as the rest of my car. After 20 minutes, I took her car seat to the neighbors house and used their water hose to spray it down. I got my car cleaned out and the ran all of the stuff through the laundry again. We stayed home today and of course, Maeci was fine. I on the other hand, am still recovering. I am exhausted and have no energy at all. I sure hope this wears off soon because if it doesn't, its going to be a really long pregnancy for me and my family!!!

Craziness!!

This past week and a half has been absolutely crazy. Both kids have been sick with ear infections and fever and I have been sick as well. My reason for being sick makes me sicker sometimes but we are having our 3rd and last child. I said that I might want another baby but not for a couple of years. I guess that God saw things otherwise and therefore, we are having our 3rd sooner than I expected. I guess that I will be following in Joanna's footsteps and having them be 23 months apart. I would have liked to have them be farther but oh well I guess. Anyway, I have been sick but now I got some medicine and seem to be better on most days. I am due Aug. 20 but I am sure it will be before that when the baby comes. Between work and church and coaching basketball for the Upwards league, I have been so exhausted I haven't had the time or energy to blog about anything. Sorry but hopefully, it won't be as long between blogs next time.
