Tracy- We're doing really good, thank you. Johnathan is kicking non-stop, I'll be 29 weeks on Tuesday. Chris is doing good also, he's been keeping me busy now that he's out of school. Next week we'll start taking him to summer activites or else we're all gonna go crazy. How are you doing?
We've been pretty busy, started baby shopping, I'm soooo excited. We're doing a jungle theme for Johnathan. Christopher's was Winnie the Pooh. I can't believe he'll be here soon. We went to the lake yesterday, I got a bad sunburn as well as hubby and Chris. We had a blast though. I have to show off my bikini pic. I was so shy at first but then everybody kept looking at my belly and asking me how far along I was, what I was having. I liked the attention, lol.
Hope you all are doing well and keeping cool, its crazy hot here in GA.

I'll bet Chris will really enjoy summer activities and it'll give you a little time to rest while he's gone! Take care of yourself in this heat!! Thankfully this week hasn't been quite so humid thus far, but I'm sure it'll be back soon enough!

Want an update on my kiddos? The one my father has nicknamed "Typhoid Matt" had gotten me sick. 
Kimmie gets sick and she usually keeps it to herself. Matt, on the other hand, seems to pass his germs like crazy! Not sure if it's b/c he sucks his thumb and touches everything, or just because he's in my face all the time. But ugh! I just got up and I'm actually heading back to bed! Thank goodness for the kids being at Grandma's!

Hi ladies, I'm with Tracy where have yall been? Lol.
Thank you all for the compliments, I loved rocking my belly, even though I got sunburned bad. I hope we go back to the lake soon, its so relaxing. I'm now 30 weeks preggo. I can't believe its gone by so fast. I had my 3d ultrasound on Tuesday, I'm gonna share a pic. He has Chris' nose and lips, and he reminds me so much of Luis.
Chris is always all over us too, I love it though. He's been really well lately. Yesterday he asked when we were going to get Johnathan here, it was so cute. I assumed since we're always talking about his little brother he must like but where is he?

Okay---Mommy panic moment..... Ansley wants to have a couple of friends over to spend the night for her birthday.....how do I tolerate 4 excited girls all night long??? I'm so unfriendly when I don't get sleep...... I'm planning to take them swimming for a while so hopefully that will tire them out, but what then???

Sleeping pills carefully ground into the cake....  No, obviously, I'm kidding! Maybe sleeping pills for you... Speaking of swimming, Matt passed his swim test at our gym yesterday! I was so excited and surprised. I didn't think he was near ready (You have to swim the length of the lap pool without grabbing the wall or touching the ground). He must have spent 20 minutes celebrating and yelling "Yes!" because now it means he can go down the waterslide. Great day for the little guy!

Congrats to Matthew. That is so exciting. I don't think Abigail would make it. She is at swim lessons at another pool and there was some "test" they could take yesterday but she seemed scared (her friends took it) and she said she thought you should ask your parents if you could take it. She seemed disappointed when I said yes.

Jackie~ WOOHOO for Matthew!!! That's awesome!!! Bless his heart....that's something to be excited about! Love the idea of the sleeping pills, but don't think that'll work for either group. I don't wake up from meds too well, and the last thing I need is 4 girls running free througout my house making up their own rules. Ellen~ I hope that Abigail will be able to do her test without fear and can celebrate too. She'll do it when she's ready....she sounds like Ansley, nervous until she's ready. Plans for an afternoon at the pool today, and wouldn't you know, it's raining???! Hopefully it'll pass us this morning and leave the afternoon to play, but this is so rare lately that I can't complain!

Hey everyone! I've also been MIA, recovery has been hard this time from the c-section and to top it off my emotions have been so out of control like last time I gave birth. I am very happy to have my two boys, even though I wish I had 3. Even though I have learned to live with the way life is and have accepted that we have an angel, I can even talk about him without crying now and I'm very happy I'm at this point. I had my two week appointment yesterday and had the courage to talk to my doctor about what I've been going through. She said its perfectly normal and said that so many mothers have the "baby blues" but so many don't speak up and its harder to deal with that alone. I have spoken up and hubby has been so understanding. I am slowly getting there and adjusting to my new duties here at home, I had forgotten how to take care of a baby and Johnathan is being such a sweet calm boy.
Kathryn- I'm sorry you having such a hard time with the divorce. I can imagine its even harder when you have kids. Stay strong for you and your kids. Hugs to you.

Maria congratulations!!!!!!
I hae been alone all weekend. For the first time in months I have had free time. And I get the stomach bug. So all I have done is lay around. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Marina is doing cheerleading. She wanted to do it. It is so funny to watch. They have football for the boys so they start the girls cheerleading. Her PT thinks its great. I will have to take some pictures.
They are really serious pratice 3 times a week and it is for 2 hours. I could not handle it.

Kathryn~ Yes--you must take pics of your cheerleader!! I've been so wiped out since school started! Seriously, who knew a 4 day week could be more tiresome than a 5 day week??!

I know so many of you are just beginning a journey with your premie so I wanted to share this with you. My little Ally was born at 32 weeks, weighed three pounds and was 17 inches long. Like many of you, we went through ups and down over the month that she was in the NICU. It seemed as though she would never catch up. However, let me tell you she did! She is now seven years old, weighs 63 pounds and is a whopping 4 foot 8 inches tall. She had her first fall coach pitch game tonight. She was nervous because she had never played coach pitch before, let alone with a team full of boys whom had played before (they don't offer girls softball in the fall where we live). But, let me tell you she never once showed that she probably could have peed down her let at any moment. Three at bats with a hit each time and one even made it to the outfield. She was one proud little girl! She played just as well as any of the boys there.
They may start life off tiny and earlier than most, but never underestimate what they are capable of achieving with a little time.

Wow that is impressive you must be so proud! Good for her!
So the little cheerleader had her first game canceled yesterday. We got the hurricane. She was not upset at all. She has decided not that she does not want to do it. It really is a lot but I think now that we have started it we should finish it. I do not know what to do. I have been between travel contracts so I have been able to go to most of the practices. But I am going to be working again soon so it is going to be really hard on the Nanny.
It is so good for her to get the excersise and socialization. I am not sure what to do. Plus I already bought her the shoes and the bag and the bloomers and the hoodie. We had to spend a ton of money. So I think she should continue but I have to fight her to go.

Oh no!! I hope that she'll change her mind and want to do the whole cheerleading thing for just this year.

My parents made me stick things out when I was little and wanted to quit. I can honestly say that I think it has made me better off now because of it. On the other hand, if it doesn't work to stick it out its not the end of the world either. There will be lots of opportunities to teach her life lessons

Kathryn- My parents had the same rule "if you started it you had to finish the season. Plus she might find she likes it better soon. I know I usually did.
Tracy- Abigail starts tennis in a couple of weeks too! I hope they both like it. I know you have been trying to find Ansley's sport.
Today my little girl is off to 1st grade. She walked with her Dad. They looked so cute holding hands...
