Its been awhile!

Look at this smiley...

I got to spend sometime with this little guy a few weeks ago (and in case you don't know, its Dylan my nephew), let me just tell you, he is a ham!!! The boy is so think, I couldn't believe how heavy he is. He's a very happy baby and is up to about 14lbs. My sister-in-law Rachel goes back to work this week so Ray and him will be able to spend sometime together at grandma's house!
We have been doing pretty well. I have decided that this baby I am caring is a girl (and that's what the pencil tests says I'm having, and we all know that the pencil test is accurate LOL) no, a little over a week ago I started to feel pretty bad. I haven't thrown up but defiantly feel like I could at any moment. That is something that I never really had with Ray. I am very emotional, that I most defiantly had with Ray. I cry at very very silly things, like dropping Ray off at grandma and grandpa for an over night stay so Alvin and I could go to the Monster truck show! I cryed at the movie "Nims Island", which by the way was a very good movie! There have been other things that have made me cry but I cant think of them right now. I get very tired and my headaches are pretty bad. But other than that I'm doing pretty good, I just wish my Doctor's appointment would hurry and get here, only 2 1/2 weeks! That seems like forever! Did you see my baby ticker on the side of my blog? So far she doesnt look like a baby, just an alien.
Ray is doing good in day care. He still cries when I drop him off, but I hear that from moms who's kids have been going to day care all there life, so I'm not to worried about it. He seems like he really likes Steve and Debbie and to me that is what counts. I really haven't taken alot of pictures, I guess I will blame it on me not feeling all that great.
Ray kicked back with Bear watchin Elmo's World...

This is his "oh my gosh" face...

How about those Colts!!!! GO COLTS GO!!!

Bye for now!!!

Big Day!

Ray has been on this earth for 22 months and he has always been watched by Grandma. But now that my sister-in-law and I are adding more children to her "grandma's day care", she is going to get a LONG over due couple of days off! Anyone who knows me knows that I have wanted to get Ray in a day care for quite some time! Well today was the day! He went to my neighbor Debbie's house. She has a really neat set up and she's been doing this awhile. Alvin and I have really gotten to know them and feel very comfortable leaving Ray with her. She has a few kids that are about Rays age, which I think is a great thing. I was a bit nervous dropping him off today (which I am not quite sure why, cause he spent a couple hours over there last Wednesday and he did fine) I dropped him off and he cryed. I wanted to call and check on him all day but decided against it. Boy oh boy did I hustle home! When I went to the door I heard laughing and no crying. She opened the door and he saw me and started to cry! I believe it was cause he was happy to see me cause he ran right to me. It made me feel like I do when I see my mom sometimes, I'm just so happy to see her I cry, that's what I want to believe anyway. Debbie said he was great! He only cryed for "seconds" after I left (that is what she told me anyway) and he ate good and took about an hour nap and helped clean up the toys. I am very proud of my boy! We shall see what tomorrow brings. He will be with Debbie Monday's and Tuesday's and then grandma's the rest of the week.
As far as the pregnancy goes, I don't go see my doctor until February 19Th, which seems like eternity!!!! I don't want to buy my pregnancy book until then and I kinda don't want to get my hopes up. I know that's awful! I feel very good except for being tired and nauseous every once in awhile, so I guess its still hard for me to believe that its really happening!
Can you believe I havent taken ANY pictures??? So I thought I would leave you with a couple of old ones.


Bye for now!!

Bear!

Oh, how much does Ray love Bear, (yes that's his name)










I absolutely LOVE this one!!


I'd say ALOT!!!!!!

Ray's Big Announcement!

Ray is going to be a big brother!!!! We found out on News Years Eve that I am pregnant. We were getting ready to head to Kentucky to see my sister and her family for the weekend and I had my suspicions that I could be. So I took a test and there it was 2 lines!!! I ran to the drug store to get more tests so I could confirm this cause I just new that one was lying. The other 2 came out positive as well! I still cant believe it. I went to the Doctor on Monday to have a blood test done. It was defiantly positive but my numbers are low it was 137. She said that it probably means I'm just one to two weeks along. So they started me on progesterone, which I had to do with Ray also. Then I went back in today and had more blood work done to make sure that my numbers get higher! Cross your fingers, I will have that number tomorrow! I will keep you posted.
Ray also went to the Doctor today. He has been having cold like symptoms since around Thanksgiving. He has never ran a fever or anything serious. But in the last couple of days he's been coughing and he hasn't ate hardly anything. So the Doctor wanted to see him and make sure he was OK. Of course his chest and ears look and sound "great" but his nostrils were inflamed, so she is treating him for a sinus infection. So he is now on Amoxil. He really likes it now but in a couple of days he will be fighting me and not wanting to take it!
Like I said in the 1st paragraph, we went to see my sister and her family this weekend. We really had a good time. We really didn't do anything but eat and go to a mall. But that was still fun. I love my sisters house. They got a 8 week old puppy and he is way to cute for words, see...



His name is Brady (or so it was when we left, that was up for debate). As terrible as this is, the only pictures I took were of that darn dog. I am very bummed about that. I wish I had gotten some of my human niece and nephew!!! Thanks to my sister and brother-in-law for everything!!!
Well I think that's it for now! I hope everyone is good.
Bye for now!!!!
