Life

Well I guess you could say we are just living life. Busy as always doesn't seem to be enough time in a day.

This past week~

Monday and Tuesday helped with bookfair/fundraiser returning fixing all the mistakes.

Wednesday We had another ultrasound and it was wonderful. Alex has a head full of hair!! The lady tech said he looks good not measuring to big/or small. estimated about 4lb12oz. Right about 50%.

Thursday was a neat day I got a lot of stuff for Free!! First was a gift bag with a bunch of things bibs, baby spoon, just to name a few. Then I got a crib mattress, changing table pad with a cover! The same place also had a large bag packed full of baby clothes, blankets, sheets and a few bottles. Also had a small stuffed bird. Poor bird fast became a dog toy. Callie sure loved it!!

Friday Worked on the fundraiser at TJ's school and it is almost done IF they sold 15 items they got a t-shirt and they were passed out . Already have one that was too small just hoping there is no more. Tuesday we have a meeting for PTC and will decide what to do for spring. Heading more towards candles or coupon books.

Name

We decide on a name~ Alex Reed

There was a bit of deciding as I liked Alex Scott and Scott liked Alex Reed.
I don't know if I would say Scott got his way or more then I just changed my mind:)
Well this baby boy is growing and growing.
I love feeling him move and kick.

Would love to have the money to buy all the stuff we still need, and want. Talked to a lady today about a crib mattress. Will know more Thursday. Should be getting a new baby carrier as the one I had with my other two was recalled, I didn't like that one so much I think I used it but a few times hoping this new one is better. I always have hope that things will work out.

I have not been working much
Scott has not been working at all!
Could use prayers as Scott has a job interview today!

Wishing, hoping, praying things will get easier~ somehow ~ soon.

Visiting my sis

Went to Toledo Thursday to visit my sister, we went out to eat and then played putt ~putt. It was fun. We had ice cream and went over a bridge that was all lit up in a bunch of colors. Kayla and TJ had a wonderful time. By the time we got back to her place it was way late so we started working on getting everyone to bed. 5 people in one room . Scott and I were on a bed and we kept drifting to the middle, Kayla and TJ were on a air mattress and it was really loud every time they moved! Heidi was on a couch and I think she was the only quiet one. I don't think anyone slept well. Friday we went looking for Yard sales and didn't find to many. Out for lunch then on to shopping, this store had used maternity clothes and was so nice I found shorts and 3 pairs of pants I was so happy as I have not be able to find much here. We got caught by a storm and headed home.
On the way home Scott stopped and helped two ladies change a flat tire I was so happy he stopped, just reminded me that God will send you help when you needed most! Scott did not want money from the lady so she gave it to Kayla and TJ so they could get some ice cream. There were three fives and they decided one would go for the baby . I was having a hard time and this lady helped me more that she will ever know!

Date Night

Last night was fun. Scott's uncle gave us money to go out to eat AND go see a movie at the REAL movie theater. (If we do go to a movie it is usually the discout one) So we went to Golden Corral Buffett and it was good. Then we went to the movies and saw Night at the Museum 2 It was really funny only bad part is we got there late. There were no places for 5 to sit so I let the kids sit on there own just across the isle Everyone liked the movie it was so funny. I love to go to the movies when the whole place laughs at the same time.

It is for sure

Expecting a baby. We are expecting.

EDD of December 29,th 2009

I am so shocked It hasn't sunk in yet.

I decided to test on Thursday April 30 I had a old test that was about to expire. I never dreamed that I was I was only a week late I had been late so many times. Yet it turned positive right away. My first thought was no way its a bad test. Took another one later that night and it too was positive right way! I was still like there is no way we have only been "trying" for 5 years!!!

Had my grandfathers 80th birthday this weekend and we decide not to tell anyone until we went to the doctor. It was so hard I was so tired and felt so nausous. We are going to try to tell everyone next weekend I hope everyone is ok with this.

Oh and get this we may have agreed on a boy name already!

Snow

We got snow !!!
Hopefully I can get a picture soon. I don't think we got as much as what they were calling for but we got some beautiful snow. We stayed in all day today. Don't know if we will try to go sledding tomorrow or not. Sad thing is we were to get together for my step-mom's Birthday this weekend and that didn't happen maybe next weekend? Or are we going to get more snow?

Oh have I said that I love snow....
