The Latest

Baby Update:

Today was my 35 week appointment with the Dr. and everything seems to be right on track.  I can't believe we only have 5 weeks to go!  I have been having some good contractions in the last few days and the Dr. said that if I did happen to go into labor this early that everything would be fine... he wouldn't stop me from having the baby at this point.  I don't quite think it will be this early but maybe in the next couple of weeks.  I am anxious for her to come, but at the same time feel like there is still so much to do.    

Fletcher/Ear Update:

Since Fletcher's tubes were put in last Tuesday, he has been talking up a storm.  (I think he likes hearing himself.)  Not everything is understandable, but there is definitely more words... and it IS getting clearer.  His ears have been very sensitive to noise as well, so whenever things get loud he puts his hands over his ears.  I am glad that we opted to have the tubes put it... I can see it helping so much already! We have a follow up appointment with the Dr. tomorrow, so we will see how much improvement there really is!

Kathy's Mom Update:

Since many people have been asking me how my Mom is doing after her surgery (which is very nice of you!) I thought I would post an update on her as well.  The surgery went well, and the Dr. was able to accomplish what he was hoping to do.  The main objective now is for her to stay completely off of her foot, which has been a major issue from the start.  She says she is staying off of it as much as she can... if that is enough, I don't know.  She actually has an appointment with the surgeon tomorrow, so hopefully the news will be good, and all is healing as it should be!

Joss & Baby's Bedroom Update:

I have decided what I want to do in the baby and Joss' bedroom to finish it up.  I actually painted the bottom half of the wall green and white stripes tonight.  And then I am going to put chair rail up.  Couldn't find any cute wall paper like I was envisioning, so the stripes will have to do.   Hopefully it will turn out as cute as I picture it.  I will have to post pictures once I take all the tape off tomorrow.
