Quick Update

This week hits the 14th week of pregnancy for me. Whew. Definitely the hardest pregnancy by far. I've been to the ER twice with this one, and have had multiple bags of fluid. I have tried everything under the sun for relief, and I've even been sporting around trusty nausea bands for the past 2 months. Very appealing, let me tell ya. I'm finally coming out of the haze. I can't explain how dark and yucky it's been. I know that it's a blessing to be able to have babies. I know. But man, I think that I am done-zo in the pregnancy department. I can't imagine going through it again. I'm definitely not 100%, but I'm not crying everyday either...so that's a plus!
We found out this month that Greer is allergic to amoxicillin. She has taken it 50 times in her life, but she had an extreme breakout that put HER in the ER a few weeks ago, so that was some surprising news. Poor baby looked pitiful. The pics I took are when it first started. It got wayyyyy worse. Very sad.
I got to go to Birmingham for the weekend with 3 of my best friends. It was awesome!!! We shopped til we dropped and laughed until we cried. Hilarious. We made some awesome memories and it was a very sweet time together. Misty and Cathie don't live in Fairhope anymore, so I don't get to see them as often as I'd like. We went and sang karaoke...something way outside our comfort zone...and we have stories for a lifetime with that experience!
I tried to do a little pumpkin painting with my 2 favorite pumpkins. The eldest loved it and painted on the actual pumpkin. The youngest just painted herself :).
I took my precious little guy to play at kangaroos the other day. He jumped and went wild while I just sat back and watched. I remember the days when I had to help him with everything, and now he climbs to the top of every slide and jumpy with no fear. His laughter was contagious and it made me smile so much to just sit back and listen to him. He has such a sweet heart and a sweet spirit. He's very very loving and affectionate. I don't think I could have special ordered a better son for Us. He's incredible.
G-girl is running things around here and keeping us on our toes! Naturally. Feel free to pray for baby #3...we are a little nervous to see how she is going to treat it. :)
And lastly...T-16 hours until we take our little Mickey and Minnie on vacation!!! I can't believe it. I haven't been to Disney World since I was 8 years old. Everyone has been so sweet to give us tips and advice and we are so so super pumped. The kids are going to freak out- I am most excited about seeing their reaction to everything. My sister and her family will be down there as well, so I'm sure good times will be had! Now...if someone would just come on over and finish packing for me, that would be a huge help...


P.S.- blogging from my phone and the pictures are all out of order. Sorry!
