Well Alex is actually almost 3 months old but I have to back track and tell about March. It all started on Thursday Feb 25 Alex caught my cold, didn't really think much of it. He was a bit down but eating good We even went to a birthday party for Scott my dad and 2 uncles on Saturday. Then Sunday 2 months old! he seem to be worse I was a bit worried My mom came over. Monday March 1 We made it to the Dr office and Dr said he is not well at all did two breathing treatments and trid to get a pulse ox level low 80's to high 70's then and sent us to the hospital where they then did two more breathing treatments and put him on o2 My poor baby caught RSV/ pneumonia we were in the hospital for 5 days I hardly left his side did come home on Tuesday and took a shower saw the kids for a bit and went right back. Then Thursday I went for a small walk(doc's) I had a really hard time leaving just couldn't do it. RSV is nothing to kid around with I was so scared Glad to say that he is doing wonderful now
Just other things have me down just hope things turn about sometime soon.

SnowdayX2
Well today is Wednesday Feb. 10 and this is the second snow day in a row. TJ hasn't been to school all week. Thought he might be getting sick Monday but turned out he is fine. I can't believe they were lucky enough to get two snow days in a row.

New Year
Christmas is over, everything is put away. Kids are back to some sort of normal, rooms are clean, well to a point. Kids are back to school. Only one snow day so far this season.
Two weeks into the new year has been at bit busy, adjusting to life with a newborn. Alex is doing good. His two week checkup 1/11/10 went good he was up to 9lb 1oz Dr said everything looked wonderful she couldn't believe how much head control Alex has.
Glad to have a wonderful hubby! He has been helping as much as he can. I think he wishes I wasn't bf but I don't want to give that up. He just wants me to be able to sleep at night, I have trouble with that anyways! He is wonderful.
Went out to eat last night for the first time with Alex, Tried out a new place called Ocean buffet it wasn't all that good. They do have crab legs, they were not that good. Really didn't like the fish. I did like the stuffed shrimp. I am hoping to talk someone into lobster bisque tomorrow!(Only on Fridays!)
Looking for a rocker/recliner. Hope to find one soon as some nights Alex just doesn't want to go back to sleep and it is hard to rock in a computer chair.
School year is half over for the older kids. TJ is doing good. He likes school still, I am glad about that. Kayla I believe is adjusting well to JR high still likes to read more than anything. (Don't really understand why she is getting a C in reading)

Baby Alex joined our family Monday 12/28 at 10:41am 8lb 5oz So glad to be home from the hospital. So far everything has been wonderful Kayla and TJ seem to love Alex so much.
Our 8 year anniversary was quiet this year but didn't expect anything with a 3day old baby. I did get one thing a very nice nap!
Hope everyone has a very wonderful new year!

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.

Ultrasound yesterday went so wonderful. We found out we are having a BOY!
Kayla and TJ went with us to the ultrasound. TJ thought it was really cool and Kayla even said it was awsome!
Is it to early to set up the crib?

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....

Merry Christmas!
Christmas 2008
Christmas is done for this year. I can honestly say I am glad in a way we shoved a lot in the last few days.
One week ago it was my daughters 12th birthday. We had her parties earlier so we just went out to eat. It was good food but the waitress was rather rude!
Friday ~ No school the first Snow day and we did .... nothing and it sure was fun!
Saturday ~ Santa came early so we could have time to play with our new toys.
Sunday~ and that is all we did played.
Monday~ We went to the Columbus zoo and froze.. really really cold weather 10* when we got there. I think the high was 15*~ We had a wonderful time my grandfather won tickets(He is always winning something!) We spent money and tried ice skating that was a lot of fun.
Tuesday~ We had Christmas with Scott's dad and step mom it was nice. The weather not so much freezing rain and a big mess.
Christmas eve ~was spent with My Dad first half day kids got scooters and my Mom the last half we got a Wii! Then the children left at 9 to go to their Dads
Christmas Day ~ Did much of nothing this morning. Went to my grandma/grandpas about noon and the kids were dropped off there they were not in a very good mood and I believe it was because they knew they had to go back until New Years eve.
Please pray that my children return safely. I miss them so much.

Tree
We went out yesterday after school/work and pick out a tree. I do think it is wonderful tradition that we have started. (And all because we got free candy three years ago) Well no free candy this year and we won't go back and get candy there at all any ways they are way over priced. So we found a new place to cut your own tree ok let me say you can cut your own be we did not have to cut the tree down as the ground was a bit frozen but also a bit muddy. (yuck!) The owner came with a chain saw and down the trees went the kids even got to ride back. So glad to have this tradition with my Dad and Nancy! Even if we froze! sorry no pictures maybe someday I will get better taking pictures.

Snow
Snow Snow and more snow. I love snow. I love snowflakes I love how each one is different.
I am so excited. We really don't have all that much but schools are on a two hour delay.
Only trouble is finding out when I am due in as I am scheduled to work at South.
Guess I better get off my butt.

Still Sick
Still a bit sick just a cold nasty nasty cold.
Not much happened this weekend. I stayed in bed all day Saturday and it was nice. I am regretting it now as I have so much housework to do. My dad had us all out to his house tonight for dinner and it was nice no fire but guess I can't have everything I want I am just so happy I didn't have to cook!
Oh and we had a bit of SNOW today ! I love snowflakes but this was more of a freezing rain/hard pelting snow. It was nice don't get me wrong but it could have been better.
Off to bed hope everyone had a nice weekend.

So bad yet so very funny
I found out today that my daughter, Kayla cut her eyebrow hairs over the weekend. "It was an accident" she stated. Then she tried to hide it from me this morning with black and blue pen markings. (wish I would have gotten a picture of that!)I told my mom on the phone this afternoon I would expect something like this from a 4 year old but not a 11 year old. Ah well it is awful funny. Especially sending her to school this morning after I washed the pen markings off. Kayla was so mad. As you can tell from the picture she is not to happy that I took this picture.
