We had a busy week and it seemed like a long week, even though it was short because of the July 4th holiday. Carson went back for his check-up from his surgery. He is doing great. I did find out they repaired a hernia as well during surgery, which I don't remember them telling me the day of. Unless I was too keyed up and didn't remember. Anyway, he and I had a fun day out, even though it was a dr.'s visit day. He talked the whole way there and back. It was so sweet to be out with just him like that. He doesn't talk a lot, so now I know why. He can't get a word in edgewise! Emmy talks enough for both. LOL. He and I went in Wal-mart together too and he talked and talked in there and giggled. He was so happy to have Mommy to himself I think.
I had my first pre-natal visit today. Everything looks great with the baby. The heartrate was 141 and he or she is due Feb. 21. We are excited! And yes, there is only ONE baby this time! That was my first question-haha! Two would have been fine if that's what God sent us, but it certainly would prove to be a challenge with the busy two we have. Meme's birthday is Feb. 19, so I think she's hoping we hit that day. I guess we'll see. Everything moves so fast with a twin pregnancy, I feel like we are in slow-motion now. I can't remember how many visits I had with the twins, but it was a TON of dr. visits, a TON of ultrasounds. I'm looking forward to seeing how a singleton pregnancy goes, but I feel bad the baby has no one to play with! :-) Carson and Emilynn were always touching, pushing, kicking in my belly. This is definitely a new experience for us and we are excited.
We had a great 4th of July weekend, except that I have had morning sickness constantly. It is hard when you still have to chase 18 month olds. It did let up yesterday so that was good. I felt normal again. We celebrated my Granny's birthday July 1st, Friday night with our traditional gathering at her house. My Dad and uncle Billy did their annual fireworks. They were awesome. The twins liked them okay, Carson kept putting his head down on me though. We had a cookout Monday at Amanda & Wayne's with more fireworks, my Dad & Wayne did those. The twins knew what to do by then. Emilynn would do her hands all crazy and clap. Carson clapped after each one and he didn't have his head ducked down. They were cute. It was a very relaxing, family filled weekend.
Well, I'm off to bed because we are taking pictures tomorrow. We have not done pictures since last year at this time. Well, professional ones. Meme's camera takes almost professional ones in my opinion. (on a side note-I am getting a camera like that! I'm soooooo excited! I may even get Meme's and let her upgrade...we'll see. I have such electronics issues that I'd honestly like to have one I know how to work already. haha....)
Anyway, the appointment is at 9:30 in the morning. My kiddos get up at 9:30 in the morning. I get up at 9:30 too. I guess I'd better set the alarm to get us out the door by 8. I did not make the appointment-Amanda did! I just hope it's worth it and everyone cooperates. Pictures stress me because it's hard to keep everyone happy, hair fixed, clothes fixed......then there's the whole deciding what to buy afterwards......it stresses me. That may be silly but they do. Of all the things to stress over......
