Baby Pics

I went today for another ultrasound! Sam is doing just fine. Of course he's in his favorite position, bent in half and grabbing his toes. He had been sleeping all morning then the poking on him woke him up briefly. He kept yawning then went back to sleep; it's so funny to see him yawn, one of those pictures catches it in the middle of one. And in one you can see his knee near his mouth and his foot on his forehead. The other pic has his arms in there but they're distorted.
He's measuring in at 3 pounds and 9 ounces, which is perfectly average. We'll be going in 8 weeks to cut him out of me. I suppose that's all the pertinent info, so I'll just leave it at that.

Chuckie Cheese!








Took the kids to play the other day. Thought I'd share some cute pics. Avril loves the rides, as you can see. Alex loves to see how many tickets he can acquire. He's got the system figured out and knows which ones give out the most.

Just Stuff




Last night I brought out the bubble spa mat and I think I've created a monster! The kids had a blast and I'm having a hard time explaining to them that we can't use it for every bath. Especially since you're not supposed to get the water soapy while in use, lol. Also included here is a recent belly shot. Luckily even though it is a lot lower than the other two, it isn't as big as Alex was! And this is the headboard that I built for my bed while I had the flu - cause really, what else was I going to do?

New Camera!





Woohoo! New camera at last. And I think I may just send the poor photo lab guy at Wal-Mart a thank you card, lol. I'm the worst at making decisions, and this one took at least two hours total. Oh well, I'm happy with it and hopefully it will allow me to take pictures more often and post on here. It was hard though to convice Frank to let me get one, he says our old one is just fine even though it weighs at least a pound and needs it's own purse to carry it and the battery is so old it only lasts a few pictures. **eye rooll** So I categorized it as a baby expense and used my baby money for it - that ended the complaining. So now I've got everything I need for Sam all set up including the new glider/ottoman combo which is so comfy I'll be in constant danger of falling asleep while rocking the baby.

So as of today I've got 9 weeks and 2 days left!

That's really all that's going on here, we're about to head over to the in-law's house for another edition of American Idol.

So I know I said I've had it all except the stomach bug, but I spoke too soon. Luckily it lasted only a day and I'm all better today except feeling a bit tired. Here are some pics of my orphan children, lol. I didn't notice until I put them on the computer that Alex is in terrible need of a haircut and Avril had the remains of something all over her face. Oh well. But check out the really organized and freshly painted closets!
