This and That

So can you tell I have my energy back and am living again, because I am blogging more! I have made it past the first 12 weeks and have been reborn! Thank God for Josh, he has really stepped in (as always)and picked up the slack while I was completely worthless, well unless you consider surfing the web productive. This is my good time from now and for about the next 12 weeks!

I thought I would take pictures of my tummy to see how the bean is growing or rather how my stomach gets larger. Since this will be my last pregnancy I want to soak in all of it.

13 weeks

I have some random pictures of things we have been up to...

Jeni shared a great idea with me. Use an egg carton, write the numbers 1-12 in each spot in the carton, put in two marbles, let the kids shake it up, then it is a numbers game. Sam can work on identifying the numbers, Keegan can practice addition, subtraction and even times like he said. They thought this was the best game ever. Keegan liked seeing what numbers the marbles seemed to repeatedly fall into...his were attracted to ten and Sam's to double sixes.

The circus was in town! We actually didn't go to the show. We've been for the last 3 years and I decided to save our money. When I told Keegan we weren't going to go this year he said, "That's fine, Mom, you are the one who said you wanted to go." :) We did go early the morning of the circus and watched them set up the tent and saw the elephants with our neighbors, the Brown's.

We have been doing A LOT of hand washing lately, with many germs floating around. Sam has had a cough but it seems to be getting better. Josh has a sinus infection, but got the miraculous anti-biotic Zythromax and kicked it. Keegan and I have coasted through with just a sneeze and a slight runny nose here and there. So here is Sam washing his hands and you can see my most recent home project-painting the bathroom cabinets and trim white. Brightening it up and getting rid of the oak.
