The First Day of School

Today is the First Day of School! Reese is in 2nd grade and Ashlee is in (full day) Kindergarten. Ash is SO excited to be in Kindergarten! Reese could really care less that school has started again. I can't believe that my little Ashaleelee is in Kindergarten! It makes me a little sad to think about it...

29 Weeks!

Almost done

I really need to put a picture up....

Baby Update....

I am finally 7 months (28 weeks)! This pregnancy has really gone by really fast! I had a doctors appt and ultrasound yesterday.

Here's the update:

The baby is to big. At 28 weeks she is already measuring 3lbs 5 oz. And of course the doctor is concerned (again).  I will have another Ultrasound in 4 weeks and another 4 weeks after that. At 36 weeks the doctor is going to "re-evaluate" the size of the baby and determine when I am going to have her. In other words; I might have the baby around 36 weeks because she will be to big for me to push out and I am not going to have a c-section.  No matter what I will have her by 38 weeks.

Brian VS. the Table Saw

*WARNING*

*THE FOLLOWING PICTURE IS DISGUSTING VIEW AT YOUR OWN RISK*

So, last night Brian was doing some work with his table saw. Yup you guessed it! He cut himself! His left thumb actually. He didn't need to get any stitches because there wasn't any skin left to stitch up. So, now it has to be cleaned with peroxide everyday (which includes many four letter words and screaming from Brian)and wrapped with dressing. It's going to take a long time to heal, but hopefully he won't have any problems with it later on. He is SO lucky that he lowered the blade to the saw before he started using it. If he didn't, he wouldn't have a thumb anymore.

Here's the picture, I took it before we left for the ER...

Looks like ground beef...

Bad Day

Today as been a HORRIBLE day!!! And it is only 1:27 in the afternoon. My kids have been awful. All 4 of them! I am so stressed out! I feel like all I have been doing is screaming at them. These are the type of days, I don't like being a mom. (Whatever, you all have those thoughts) They won't stop fighting/screaming/hitting/biting/talking/laying on the freaking ground at the store/running away/climbing anything. And it all happened while we were out shopping today. I freaking went to Target and didn't even enjoy my shopping experience!!! So, now Reese and Ash are grounded to their room until Brian gets home. (And if I hear any screaming or fighting from that room they are going to be grounded until school starts!)Kailyn is having a quiet time and Hayden is in her bed asleep. And I get to clean the Kitchen.

I really can't wait until school starts. I am so over summer...

I'm really digging that womans sweater, wonder where I can find one...

Happy 4th and 5th of July!!!

The 4th of July

I have no pictures of the 4th of July. Because I am so awesome I forgot to charge the battery and  realized it when we got to river to watch the fireworks. Just another Holiday where I forget my mom duties in the picture taking department. Other than that the 4th was great!!! We went to our neighbors for a cookout, ate lots of food and had lots of fun! Then we all walked down to the river for the fireworks. I love the benefits of living downtown, while everyone was trying to find parking spots, we just crossed the street!

The 5th of July

The 5th of July was our anniversary! Our 7th anniversary. We spent the day really loving and enjoying each other all day! Actually Brian made me hang drywall for the day. And it sucked. Do you know how freaking hard it is to hang drywall on 10ft ceilings? Not to mention that being 6 1/2 months pregnant also makes it even better. We went out to dinner on Friday to a really nice Chinese place, that was really fun!  No kids, no screaming, no chicken nuggets, or spilled cups of junk. Just me, Brian and Jimmy Jengs. It was great. The food was amazing and Brian got his cow on and ate everything.

Overall, the weekend was great!

Baby Update....

How Far Along: I am 24 weeks, or 6mo for those of you who can't do math
How Big is Baby: Baby #5 is the should be the size of a papaya. Lucky me, my Dr already confirmed that she is bigger than she should be...
How I'm feeling: SWOLLEN! My fingers are like sausages! My other complaint (besides being pregnant) is that my lower back is really starting to hurt, alot. I haven't felt this much discomfort since I was pregnant with Ashlee. This pregnancy really isn't too bad. It's just like my other pregnancy's. I still get "morning" sickness alot, but I'm not throwing up as much anymore.

Weight-Gain: 30 lbs...

I would take a side profile picture, but that really involves too much work: taking a shower, actually putting a bra on, and trying to hide my 30 lbs I've gained...

Eww!

I've found this REALLY awesome pool! I love it! (It was just built 2 yrs ago, so it is really clean.)It has a giant waterslide, a splash park thing with another waterslide and it is awesome. But today some kid had to deface my awesome pool and POOPED in it!!!! But since it is an awesome pool, we now get it get in free next time we go...
