Fishin'

Justin and I took the kids to Deanna Rose and we stopped to go fishing. We took a pole and instead of paying for a bucket of worms, we decided to use the bread we packed for lunch. As soon as the hook hit the water the fish were bitting. We caught about a dozen fish, using just bread! Of course Justin had to remove the fish from the hook. Momma doesn't touch fish! We had a great time and it was a beautiful day!

Eating time

When Jakie is hungry he just takes food out of the fridge. Today he took out the strawberries and sat in the middle of the kitchen and starting eating. For dinner he was interested in the corn we were eating and so I let him try it. I showed him how to hold and eat the corn and he went to town!

The Sweetest thing!

So we were in the car and drove by a fire station and David said, "Mom look a fire house! I want to live in a fire house when I grow up. Then I can drive a fire truck and help somebody!" I Thought it was the sweetest thing and so thoughtful!

Glucose Test!

Well I got my results and they were normal! Totally thought that I would have flunked and have to do the 3 hour, hang out in the waiting room test. But I'm cleared. Look out ice cream and brownies, here I come!!!

Had my 28 week check-up today with my glucose test. I didn't gain weight this month, yippee! I was getting nervous b/c last month I had gained 10lbs! That's a lot to gain in a month! My belly is getting so huge that I don't think I have anymore room to stretch! I am measuring 30cm which make me believe this kiddo will be HUGE!! Probably a nine pounder! My Dr. said that we will monitor in two weeks to see how I am measuring. I won't be sad if she wants to induce at 38weeks! It's going to be a long summer! Keep you all updated on how my glucose test turns out.

A day at the lake!

I can't find my camera to post what the family has done the last couple of weeks so I'm really bummed!
Took David fishing today with my niece Kyn and sister-in-law. Of course I'm kind of a girly girl and don't touch worms or fish. So my sis-in-law had to bait my hooks for me! Her and her crew caught a total of 12 fish. David and I, not so much! Had a few nibbles, but not one to catch! We had a great time. When David was in the bath tonight I noticed a dark spot on his back. It looked like a mole but with further investigation I discovered a tiny tick. I whipped out the alcohol and tried to smoother the tick out of my son's skin but the sucker wouldn't budge. So thinking it might be dead, cuz what can breath when covered in alcohol, I tried pulling it out with tweezers! Still didn't pullout. So I called my dad and suggested I cover it with finger nail polish to kill it. Sure enough the tick was still alive and now stuck to my son. It quickly died! After a few minutes or so I removed the polish and tried to remove the tick. Just for future reference ticks heads won't come out when it's dead. So now the head of a dead tick is in my son's skin! Now he's probably going to get an infection or Lyme's disease!!! Why couldn't my husband been home to take care of this!

Happy Easter!!!

We cheated and had our Easter yesterday! We knew the weather was going to be rainy and cold so we had the Easter egg hunt while it was nice outside. My niece Kynleah spent the night on Friday and by morning the Easter Bunny had brought Easter baskets full of candy and hide eggs outside for them to find! The Easter Bunny went a little over board with the candy this year! The kids really enjoyed themselves. Jake was clueless, but did find an egg hiding in his swing!
