Hi Everyone..... Life has been really, really crazy lately and I haven't got to DIS at all.
Baby Boy #3 is doing well and still cooking I was measuring 2.5 weeks ahead of schedule at my 24 week appt. I have an ultrasound on Wed. I'll be going for a bunch until I have him, as we'll take him earlier if he's huge like Brady was (or probalby even my first one who was 1.5 lbs less than brady).
Passed glucose again...thank goodness, I was nervous this time around. But this pregnancy is kicking the you know what out of me. Doesn't help that I hurt my ankle early on and it just isn't getting better because I can't take anything. I know it isn't broken, but don't know anything else. UGH.
Bradys 2 year appt went well he didn't get a shot because they had postponed it when he was getting over the chicken pox at 15 months...so he gets to go in at the end of the month to get it.
He is 30 3 oz, I thought he'd be more. He was 36.5 inches...he has until mid october to get to 40 inches for our trip to Disney. We are staying at the Boardwalk Inn in a deluxe club level room. It is being referred to as the "spoil me wrotten vacation" as it's my birhtday and I have never been to disney for my vacation and I need to get spoiled after giving birth to my 3rd boy.
I know we were talking about the elmo potty video not too long ago...well I finally was paying attention (or in the room) when it was on and all I have to say is that it grossed me out and I went to do dishes. I don't know if it's the pregnancy or what...but it's very direct and it was making me want to vomit.
Very weird....

I totally remember that from Friends! 
We're having debates on what we can and can't fit into the minivan for packing now. It will be 3 adults and two kids in carseats for the drive down to LA, and it will be cozy. Strollers are the big debate at the moment: will we have room for our regular strollers, or do we have to bring umbrella strollers. We would rather not stand in line to rent strollers at the park, plus we'd like to have them for the walks to and from the hotel. I'd rather have our regular stroller (Graco MetroLite) because it can recline and has a large basket, and I think it would be more comfortable for Owen to nap in at the parks, but we don't know that we'll have room for it. So the weighing of odds and ends continues...will we have space for x or y...etc.
) and printed them out for all of us. She's a nut!
Check this out...I made $2000 LESS than last year and hubby and I still made $3000 MORE this year! 
Hubby was +5000 from last year, so like you I shouldn't complain. Fact is we still got $300 more than last year....$3250!!!!!!!!!! 
Miracles happen? I don't know. 
I'm calling the Dr. back tomorrow and demanding they get me in. I'm tired of being sick. And really, the biggest problem is that I have NO energy. Keeping up with Vaylie is next to impossible. I'm just glad she's not sick. 
You'll get there. 
Oh well. I am still getting my back-yard theater!! I can't wait! 
I'm calling the dr tomorrow and trying to get in ASAP. We'll see if it works - with our HMO you have to call an "Advice Nurse" first and they go through a list of questions and decide if you should come in or if you should try something else first. It does at least save on a dr. visit sometimes, but sometimes it's just jumping through hoops until you get the dr. appt you want. 
Hope you guys can get in to the Dr. too.
The doctor said it's not too bad, fairly mild, but he will need glasses by the time he goes to Kindergarten if not pre-school. He said that sometimes astigmatism's can get better but rarely get much worse. He said that it could cause him to do the funky blinking stuff he has been doing with his eyes. DH is probably more upset than I am. He is concerned it will interfer with him learning/playing sports more. DS also has trouble following objects when they go up and down, down is fine but up he doesn't go as high as he should and looks away. The doctor said it's most likely from the astigmatism making it blurry the high up he goes so he looks away and blinks to clear his vision.
Brady had a great time at my parents house for 4 days. My mom called today and said that she missed having him there....I told sleep-overs can be arranged at any time! 
, but he's his usual wiggly, curious self. I don't dare wear anything that can't be tossed in the wash because this child is constantly rubbing his nose on my clothing!
