Monday Already

How is it already Monday? I guess when you work all day Saturday and only have Sunday to enjoy, the weekends go super fast. I am off Thursday and Friday so that is nice, but it isn't the same as being off on Saturday and Sunday. I really hate working every single Saturday. Oh well, thus is life!

Thursday we ran a few errands and hung out. Matt was off as well since he worked the whole weekend. I have been craving sweets this whole pregnancy and since we had to go get milk why not get a donut too :).


Friday we took Kinley to the rec center to go swimming. They have a great kid area and we hadn't been in a while. I think we might get passes after this little boy comes so we both can start working out again and take advantage of the other benefits. We also want to get Kinley into swimming lessons as well. We only stayed a little over an hour because it was getting close to lunch and nap time, but we all had a great time.




Friday night Matt's parents came over to watch Kinley so we could go to dinner. It was really nice to get out and enjoy some adult conversations that revolved around the kiddos, as always. Isn't it crazy how much you miss them when you are gone for a few hours? We had many laughs as to how she can make us wanna scream one second but the next we just want to snuggle her. We also talked about how are we going to love another kid as much as we love Kinley. How is it possible? I am starting to have some fears about adding a second kid into the mix. I worry how we are all going to adjust. I know we will but I can't help thinking about it. We are getting down to the end here, only 13 weeks left. Unreal!



Matt's parents had Kinley all day Saturday since we both had to work. Matt took her to their house before he went in and they hung out there for awhile until they met me back at home when I got off work. We all enjoyed some pizza and the rest of the football game. Kinley had a really hard time going to bed and I finally had to go in and lay on her floor until she feel asleep. It didn't last long...she was up crying about an hour later. We ended up bringing her in our bed and she tossed and turned for a lot of the night. It was a tough one. It is getting harder for me to get good sleep so that was a bummer.

What do you know. She woke up with a fever on Sunday. She was pretty cranky and ready to nap about an hour and a half after she got up. I wasn't complaining. We all needed a nap. Matt had to go to work so her and I stayed in pjs all day. It was pretty fabulous! I will be honest I did feel bad about it at first but the weather was cold and rainy and we weren't going anywhere so pjs it was. She let me look in her mouth and she is getting the top 2 year old molars. I am so glad after these we are done with teeth. Teething always kicks her butt. She is always miserable for a few days. It is heartbreaking. I gave her Motrin before bed so hopefully that will help her. She was out by 7:00pm after 2 naps and asking to go to bed for an hour. Lets hope tomorrow is better because even though it is a holiday Matt and I both have to work. She will be in good hands with his parents so hopefully everything will be ok. I will take all the snuggles I can get right now though! I love when she cuddles with me.  Since we were home all day I was able to make some meals for the week. The best....creamy chicken and wild rice soup.



Hope everyone has a great holiday! We have our appointment on Tuesday for the echo on baby boy. I am definitely anxious for the appointment. Then I have my glucose test on Friday that I am not looking forward to either since I had gestational diabetes with Kinley. Please send some positive thoughts for all the appointments this week.

  2. I understand your worries about the new baby coming. When I was pregnant with my twins (we already had a son) I really started panicking about how I would love all three of my kids enough. It's some miracle that happens with mommas, the more kids you have, the bigger love you give. It's amazing, and it will all work out! Good luck!

  4. I hope Kinley feels better super fast - even though we never want them sick I sure enjoy all those cuddles anytime I get them too! I'm hoping to start taking my boys to the rec center here soon for some swimming classes. It's such a great way to burn energy and teaches them such valuable lessons. Sending positive thoughts for your appointment!
