Hello, Hello!

I was reminded today that I haven’t blogged in a little bit (thanks Steph J).  Sorry bout that. 

Oh yes, the kids had their sibling class last week and oh my goodness, our son is a goof!  Once they all got their babies to pretend with and were sitting there all nice pretending to feed the baby a bottle, Blake farted so loud and the whole class cracked up laughing!!!  Of course though, Josh and I were both totally mortified.  I guess that’s a boy for you!  The class itself was decent enough but it was pretty much review for Blake and Syd as we’ve talked about this whole process quite a lot.  Blake has always been more interested in knowing what’s going on with Mason on any given day, so we do a lot of reading and such.  Oh well though, was decent enough.  Josh had his ‘Dads on Deck’ class this past Saturday and he said it was really good.  Despite learning a lot in our ‘Preparing for Childbirth’ class, he said he learned even more at this class and thought it was pretty cool that the class was really geared towards the dad and from a dad’s prospective.  He took a whole lot of notes as well. 

And yep, we're still practicing on Mooson here and there--->

Our one year wedding anniversary was Sunday, September 19^th, and it was just as beautiful of a day as it was a year ago although a bit warmer.  We didn’t do much to celebrate the day in terms of going out or anything like that- instead, Josh made breakfast (and made me freshly squeezed orange juice- YUM!), then for whatever reason, we both started doing some mega cleaning.  I’m talking dusting the tops of the kitchen cupboards and cleaning out cupboards, then we made our way downstairs and cleaned out the kids’ toy room, then organized the living area down there.  Needless to say, there are a lot of homeless spiders in our house (and soon enough they’ll be lifeless too as we keep killing those pesky spiders we see). 

Oh, forgot to mention, I did start taking my heparin shots- Josh hates giving them to me as much as I hate getting them.  The medicine really burns like crazy and it just plain ol’ hurts.  I’ve got a few tiny bruises on my belly already.  I’m supposed to take two shots a day, but I haven’t quite been able to get that far yet- I get so stressed out just from thinking about the shots, that we’re lucky to do our one a day.  It just depends… I’ve been a bit uncomfortable this week, so I’ve been trying to lay low.    I just hope Mason is still in the head down position and my weight gain is still low!  We have another appointment with MaryAnne on Monday so we'll see.  

So that’s about it for now.  Not too much going on this coming week, so that’s kind of a good thing. 

Syd had a game this past weekend too (Blake’s got rained out).  I was so proud of her!!  I took a lot of pictures as Josh was at class.
