Wow! What a busy week. Thursday night, 2 of the cutest kids I know spent the night with thier Aunt Roxy and Uncle Eddie ( yes, that is them in the pictures, looking all innocent)! Yeah, I guess I am a bit biased since they are my niece a nephew but hey, aren't we all? We had a wonderful time, and were even able to keep them occupied. I think that is are biggest obstacle with the kids right now because out hosue is just not kid friendly right now. I know all of that is going to change real soon, but for now we try real hard to make it as fun as we can for the kids. I don't think they were disappointed at all. We had a bit of a slumber party I guess you can say. We made popcorn, drank Chocloclate milk and watche the Disney Movie Cars. Now that was after we stopped at McDonalds for dinner and played in the "play area" for quite some time. We let them decide when they were ready and what they wanted to do. On Friday morning we woke up watched cartoons and for breakfast we had "chocolate chip cookies , chocolate milk and Sprite", ok, so maybe not the most nutricious meal but what are Aunts and Uncles for?? To let you do what you want right???
I was a bit tired and worn our afterwards I have to admit. I was doing a lot of running up and down the stairs and picking up and putting down of kids and normally it would not have bothered me but with the added weight and the pregnancy, I did notice a bit of a difference. Ethan was really cute, he was sitting on my lap Thursday night and started "jiggling my belly" asking me if the baby could feel it or if I could feel the baby. He got the biggest kick out of "jiggling" my belly... I told him when his "cousin" arrives, I was going to tell her it was her cousin Ethan that was doing all the "jiggling" and she would reach out and poke him. He just laughed and laughed and kept doing it. You just got to love kids!!
I am feeling ok, except my meds were changed again. My doctors added yet another injection to the already 6-7 injections a day I am already doing. I almost cried when she added yet a 3rd insulin to my regimine...I just can't explain to you the mental distress that I go through with every injection, I know it is all for the baby, but boy, I'm starting to feel like a regualar human pin coushin!! Only 3 and half more months right....????
