I've been feeling some little kicks here and there! At first I thought they were gas bubbles...but then it feels like the baby is completely rolling. I feel it every few days and it's nice.
I'm still listening to the baby every morning and every night to make sure that she's in there.
Still thinking it might be a girl!

The car.
I must say that we're pretty disappointed in our Toyota Matrix. We purchased a Toyota because we thought it'd last forever.
TO say the least...the house is falling apart!!
We were told that one of the corrugated metal hose parts needed to be replaced. Then there's the tires, the plastic tire guards, and the clanking that we hear in the back of the car.
The last thing in the world we want is a new car payment! However, we're going to have to put some money into this car in order to keep it on the road.

A day of rest...
This morning we went to a kid's birthday party and we came home. I thought I was going to try and rest but I couldn't get comfortable. My hips were achy and when I did go down Emmy kicked me.
So, we decided not to go to the music event at the park tonight.
We're hanging out tonight and folding laundry!

Eating disorders.
When I was in college I roomed with my best friend from high school, Jenny. We had a great time. Our sophomore year I noticed Jenny was losing weight. I admitted to her I was gay and she admitted to me she was anorexic.
I didn't realize how serious it was until she went into the hospital and weighed 75 pounds. We went to Houston to visit her and she looked awful and so frail.
She didn't return that semester and I moved to New York. We kept in touch via email for a year or so then lost touch.
A few years ago I talked with a mutual friend who told me that Jenny passed away. I really couldn't believe it.
I wish she would have been able to beat anorexia and go to an eating disorders treatment centers.
I think about Jenny often.

Hoarders...
I try to watch this show at least once a week because it doesn't make me feel so bad about the lousy housekeeping job I've been doing! I have one more month of work and I can't wait to go back to doing little things around the house like CLEANING and LAUNDRY.
For the past year of me working things have been quite neglected. It will be nice to have a good 4 months to get things together before the baby comes.

Bad phone.
Margot's phone is absolutely WORTHLESS. It's such a shame because she treats hers like gold. In the next month we're going to upgrade her and hope that the new phone has better luck!
I've heard that new htc incredible s.
Just last night we were over at M and L's and the dog knocked his phone into the dog water bowl. To say the least...it's dead. They went out today and picked up a new phone. I hope they got something good and didn't have to pay an arm and a leg!

The pool.
This year we purchased a pool pass. For some reason I just don't like going. I feel overly boyant and it makes me a little nauseaus. I feel like I can't swim on my belly cause with the boobs and the belly I float right up! It's weird.
Margot has been taking the girls to the pool regularly and it's been nice to have time to do laundry, clean up, and pick up toys!

Christmas...
If I had my act together I would be shopping for Christmas gifts right now! Knowing that our December is going to be a little hectic with the possible arrival of a baby!
I've started looking online for gits and I saw the best personalized gifts for dad.
If you truly are organized about it you can get some great deals right now and not have to worry about fighting the crowds at the Christmas rush!

16 weeks!
And I'm feeling really good. Pending the 2 ice cream sandwiches, guacamole, chips, and cheeseballs I just ate!?!
I've felt some movement and it's been nice. I can't wait to actually see the baby move. That is my favorite part of being pregnant.
We have another ultrasound in a few weeks and I can't wait to see how big the baby is.

Yikes.
We had a great time in North Carolina. Too good of a time. We ate way too much! Margot gained serious weight and so did I. However, I can blame mine on pregnancy!
At one point she might even want to think about the safest diet pills that work! With life being so hectic and us loving food the way we do...we've got to figure out something!
Obviously, what we're doing isn't working!

15 weeks!
Wow...this is going super fast. I can't believe it. Before I know it I'm going to be 37 weeks waiting for this little one to get out!
We had a good midwife appointment last week. The next one is in 2 weeks. We'll get an ultrasound in Syracuse the day before.
I'm excited to see how big she is!

Jammin'
Right now Margot is using our portable speakers outside. It's so nice to use the phone, plug in Pandora, and listen to the music outside!
We've been spending so much time outside these days and it's such a nice place. The deck is perfect and it's so shaded. The kids play in the back yard and we hang out on the lounge chairs drinking cold drinks!

DAMN.
I'm watching the Housewives of OC Reunion. DAMN. It's good stuff.
It was a good season and I must say that the OC girls bring it on so much better than all of the other girls. I also have NYC taped but I don't know when I'll get around to watching it.
This is the first time in weeks that I've had time to sit down and watch a 45 minute show.

A little supplement...
goes a long way.
One of my friends is doing the hgh supplements. They feel healthy and it's really helped them balance things.
We have a new vitamin store in town and every time I go past it's empty. I can't help but think that most people probably buy their vitamins and supplements online these days because it's easy, fast, and more than likely they get a pretty good deal!

Topamax
I hate thinking that anything bad could ever happen to my children…but I know if anything ever did…I’d want the best attorney to take care of the situation!
We have a friend who has a little boy who was affected by a medication drug. It seems like the FDA didn’t do all of the testing it should have and they put the medication on the market way too fast.
Just this morning…
I was watching television and a commercial came on for the Topamax lawsuit. Supposedly, this medication was prescribed to many children and adults and the effects were unknown early. After years of useage they discovered that it had bad side effects that caused many people to become very sick.
One of my friends went to: O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath – Personal Injury Lawyers – 808 West Avenue, Austin, TX. 78701 – 512-494-9949
They had great results and really liked the personal care that they received with their case. They were dealing with personal injury from a car accident and were very happy with the results.
After dealing with the insurance companies for months they were getting absolutely nowhever. When they called the office my friend was happy that they took over EVERYTHING. They didn’t have to worry about the stack of bills or contact with the insurance and their threatening attorneys.

Tired and sick - again
I've been trying to keep down my food. But...its not working too good.
I went to the midwife appointment a few days ago and they gave me more medication for nausea. I haven't picked it up from the pharmacy because quite honestly I don't know how good it works.
Today I threw up twice. Once after breakfast and once after lunch. I should have known Taco Bell wasn't a good idea!?!
Last night I had a nice late dinner of Indian food and everything went good and I was able to keep it down. I don't understand?

When it comes to my kids...
I'd do anything for them.
The other day I was talking to our friend who has twins. We talked about the risk involved and we talked about her son. He has epilepsy and has been on so many medications over the years. Right now he's seeing specialists all over and they've decided to keep him on his current meds.
The hard part is for him. Socially he sometimes has a hard time in school. He's had his seizures at school and it scares the other kids.
I've read up on Topamax class action lawsuit and I have to say that if a medication had an effect on my child the way that it has on so many I would be the first one to find a good attorney.
But no matter how much compensation you might get...it never replaces having a healthy child.

RAIN.
There's so much rain outside. Margot had planned on spending this weekend doing deck stuff. YEsterday she poured the concrete foundations for the deck. Today it looks like it's going to be raining on and off for the rest of the day. I think this evening is suppose ot have half an inch of rain hit.
WHat happened to the sunny springtime??

Well, I'm almost 7 weeks. I've only puked once and felt sick quite a few times. My belly has popped out.
Tuesday we go in for another ultrasound. At this point it's still hard to think that there are three babies that are growing.
I did the consult with the genetic counselor this week. It provided some clarity and we're going to go ahead and go through with the procedure to reduce two of the babies.
With my heart condition there's no way that I can carry triplets to term.
I'm so sad about it all...but I want and need a healthy baby in the end.

Beauty school...
dropout?
Of course, that is not my style. To drop out...that is.
One of my friends is a Cosmetologist and I am constantly amazed at how well she does financially! She also works as an airline attendant for American Airlines. When she doesn't have assignments she goes right back to her Cosmetology background and ALWAYS has a job waiting for her!
I think she might have gone to Springfield beauty school, where she was raised.
These days I have been looking at going back to work. I wrestled with the idea of doing real estate and getting my license but maybe I should look for a back up plan in case that does not work.
RegencyBeauty.com offers Cosmetology school in many different areas and they are an industry leader.
