Checkin In

Happy Memorial Day! Summer weather and activities are in full swing in every way!

I just realized it has been 2 weeks since I posted. I check internet mostly on the phone since the computer is dying a terrible death =). This may turn out to be long if the computer allows.

We completed our annual garage sale. Whew,they are lots of work but the end result is a cleaned out house and extra ca$h. For motivation, I pick something that the $$ will fund. This one was especially fun because it is going to the out of pocket doctor bill for baby girl. We sold a lot of stuff and my house is happy because all of the closets are all purged and cleaned out.

I have been to the doctor since I last posted for my glucose screening and a regular appt. Last time around, I had diabetes with Keirah. I haven't heard anything so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it is okay. My blood pressure has been slightly up there on the last few visits. Not huge...but they want to do some extra monitoring. They told me to take it on my own. Since I have family members with blood pressure cuffs, we have taken it several times since the dr. appt. Every time we have taken it, it has been perfect. We have taken it on two different cuffs that have been checked at dr. offices for accuracy. Maybe I have been nervous or something at the last appts.

Kiki got her ears pierced today. She is a little diva and loves all things girly. Aliyah had informed her many times of the pain involved with it. She decided that she would do it, but we could tell she was nervous in the chair. Luckily, there were two people to get it done and over with. She chose pink. They did it and instead of a scream, she simply looked down and then a few tears fell. I picked her up and she quietly cried for a short time. This was totally different from her sister's experience.

The pool opened this weekend and we paid a visit. It was super-duper fun. The girls loved it as you might imagine.

This is a big week for us as J is on vacation and completing a smaller project. He is putting porcelain tile in our main floor bath. We celebrate our 10th anniversary later this week!! It has flown by, but when you spend every day with your best friend...time flies. We are excited.

I think we have decided on furniture for baby girl. It is fun to figure these things out. We have been stocking up on diapers pretty often. If only I had some formula coupons...I'm hoping they start sending them out soon. One of my favorite things is to watch/feel my stomach jump as she is wiggling quite often.

Well, I'm sure I've left many things out. One thing is for certain...life is busy!!
