MY NATHAN IS TWO AND HAS BECOME A PIRATE

WELL THIS PAST SUNDAY WAS NATHAN'S BIRTHDAY... HE IS TWO. ON SATURDAY WE HAD AN AWESOME PIRATE PARTY. SATURDAY MORNING WAS VERY RELAXING, I AM THE MOST ORGANIZED PERSON EVER AND SO I HAD EVERYTHING READY TO GO. THE PARTY STARTED AT TWO AND SO WE RELAXED TILL ABOUT ONE AND THEN GOT READY TO PARTY. NATHAN HAD THE CUTEST BIRTHDAY OUTFIT COMPLIMENTS OF HIS MIMI AND ADORABLE GOODY BAGS WHICH THE KIDS LOVED. (WE GO ALL OUT ON PARTIES) ONCE ALL THE KIDS WERE HERE MY AWESOME HUSBAND WHO WAS DRESSED AS A PIRATE LED THEM ON A SCAVENGER HUNT... THEN IT WAS TIME FOR ALL THE PIRATE THEMED FOOD, CAKE, AND PRESENTS. NATHAN GOT WAY TOO MANY PRESENTS AND HE LOVES ALL OF THEM. AFTER CAKE AND PRESENTS ALL THE KIDS WENT OUTSIDE AND PLAYED ON OUR BRAND NEW PIRATE SHIP. MY PARENTS PRESENT TO THE KIDS (IT IS FOR JACOB'S BIRTHDAY TOO... SLIGHTLY EXPENSIVE) WAS A PIRATE SHIP PLAYSET THAT PHILLIP AND MY DAD BUILT. IT LOOKS AWESOME. THE GUYS DID A GREAT JOB. ALL IN ALL IT WAS A VERY NICE DAY BUT I CAN'T BELIEVE MY OLDEST BABY IS NOW TWO. EVERY DAY HE DOES SOMETHINGS NEW AND I CAN'T HELP BUT LAUGH. RIGHT NOW HE IS TELLING PEOPLE HE IS A PIRATE AND SHOWING THEM HIS MUSCLES WHILE SAYING ARGH. GOT TO LOVE IT.

UPDATE ON ISABELLE

I THINK THIS CHILD IS GOING TO BE THE DEATH OF ME. I WENT IN THIS MORNING FOR MY WEEKLY SONOGRAM AND DR. APPOINTMENT AND HE HAD ME DO BLOOD WORK.... WELL GUESS WHAT!!! WE NOW HAVE ANOTHER ISSUE. NOT REALLY A BIG DEAL JUST MORE MEDICINE. APPARENTLY I AM ANEMIC WHICH COULD EXPLAIN PART OF THE EXHAUSTION (NATHAN AND JACOB ARE THE OTHER PART. LOL.) ALL IN ALL A GOOD VISIT. BELLE WEIGHS CLOSE TO FOUR POUNDS WHICH IS AVERAGE. I AM SO EXCITED SHE LOOKS GOOD.

THIS WEEK

WELL SO FAR THIS WEEK I HAVE MADE IT TO THE DOCTOR EVERYDAY. LOL. HOPEFULLY SHE WON'T ACT UP TODAY BECAUSE IT'S MY MONTHLY GROCERY DAY. ANYWAY YESTERDAY AFTER MY DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT I MET KAYDEE AND WE WENT SHOPPING. SHE IS GIVING ME A BABY SHOWER "SINCE IT'S MY LAST BABY AND I AM FINALLY HAVING A GIRL". THE TRIP STARTED AT TARGET WHERE I REGISTERED (LOT'S OF CUTE STUFF!!!), THEN WE WENT TO CARD AND PARTY FACTORY, THEN WALMART (WHERE YOU NOW HAVE TO REGISTER ONLINE... NOT SURE IF I WILL END UP DOING IT.), THEN WE HEADED TO PARTIES PLUS AND FINALLY OUR FAVORITE HOBBY LOBBY. WE ENDED UP FINDING THE PLATES AND THINGS THAT WE LIKED AT HOBBY LOBBY FOR A REALLY AWESOME PRICE. HOBBY LOBBY IS SUCH A DANGEROUS STORE FOR ME... I COULD SPEND SO MUCH MONEY THERE. PHILLIP WAS PROUD THOUGHT I ONLY BOUGHT TWO THINGS. I GOT HIM A PICTURE FRAME FOR HIM AND ISABELLE "MY PRINCE DID COME AND HIS NAME IS DADDY" AND I BOUGHT A PIRATE SHIP CAKE PAN SO I CAN MAKE NATHAN'S BIRTHDAY CAKE. OH YEAH WE ALSO WENT YAMBOREEING LAST NIGHT AND NATHAN WON A STUFFED ELMO DOLL. WOO HOO JUST WHAT WE NEED. HE WAS SO AMAZED AND LOVED THE CAR RIDES. WELL I AM OFF TO CHECK MY BLOOD SUGAR AND GET TWO VERY HANDSOME BOYS READY FOR THE DAY.

I DID IT!!! I GAVE MYSELF MY FIRST SHOT.

SO I HAVE GIVEN SEVERAL SHOTS IN MY MANY MANY YEARS. LOL. GIVING THEM TO OTHER PEOPLE DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL. I CAN HANDLE THAT BUT I JUST GAVE MYSELF ONE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND HONESTLY IT KIND OF GROSSED ME OUT. IT DIDN'T REALLY HELP THAT MY HUSBAND WAS SQUINTING SAYING HAVE YOU DONE IT YET? ALL THIS TO SAY THIS LITTLE STINKER BETTER BE NICE TO ME AND HER DADDY BETTER HAVE AN ICED DR PEPPER WAITING FOR ME THE MINUTE SHE IS BORN. THIS PREGNANCY IS KICKING MY BOOTIE. OH WELL NOT TOO MUCH LONGER.
