Doctor Visit

So, I had a doctor visit yesterday.. The baby was doing wonderfully.. The baby was all stretched with an arm behind his head, while using my bladder as a pillow.. Now that explains the inability to get through an hour without going to the bathroom. But....we got an adorable picture of his foot. I also had some concerns that because they could only see from the back, that the baby was not a boy. But......after the sono yesterday.....it is definitely a boy.... I am so relieved. Don't get me wrong, little girls are wonderful. In fact I have three sisters.... but they are also full of hormones and can be extremely difficult....I just don't have the patience for the girls....I am such a boy momma. I love my son and am excited to have another one.... The other side of yesterday is blood pressure...mine is a little high so we are watching closely. I will be in every two weeks here for a little bit to double check and make sure I am doing okay.. I am praying for a one time only high reading.....we will see...back to the doctor today...

Zanisms

Okay with the new baby coming Zander has asked and said some very interesting things...

Zan: Is the mailman going to bring the baby? Me: No Zan: Oh, is the Fedex man?

Zan: (after much sickness for me) are you going to throw up the baby? Me: no, I was sick with you too... Zan: you threw me up?

At the doctors office to the nurse: Nurse: do you have any name ideas? Zan: the baby's name is toilet....

From the back view it appears we are having a boy, but we are not for sure yet...Zan has always thought it is a girl.. so...at the sonogram
Nurse: I think it might be a boy. Zan: well, where did the girl go?

I know there have been more.. It seems like every day he has a new idea..

Has it been forever?????

Well, once again it has been a long time since I have been on here... The main reason is that I have spent pretty much the entire year working through the fertility process....And....it worked!!!! I am due on May 21....and I am so excited.....and I am soooooo sick......I need to find a few sewing patterns for blankets, burp cloths, and the like.... I am training for DCFS like a mad woman...two times a week right now.. It is tiring, but definitely rewarding.

Zander is growing by leaps and bounds.... He is going to preschool now and loving it...He talks about his teacher all the time... Sometimes I think that he would do what she says over what I would say. I am glad that he is having such a wonderful time and has moved passed so much of the anxiety that he has had in the past.... He is excited about being a big brother, and wants to buy all sorts of things for the baby (so do I).

Nathan is crazy at work....It has been a hard year, but I am hoping that he will get moved soon. Then maybe he will be in a better mood when he gets ready for work.

So for now...I need to get started organizing....Our house is an old farmhouse and not very big...but I have tons of closet space... What happens when you have lots of closets...you fill them all.. I need to get rid of the junk and start making room to organize for more than one child....
