Brooklynn is finally getting over hers. Thank goodness. Rocco is in the middle of it - poor guy all stuffed up and has a fever. Of course he is still a perfect baby smiling and talking away like the trooper he is. I got nailed with an awful sore throat and migraine. Yes MIGRAINE - that made me miss the <a href="http://abc.go.com/shows/the-bachelorette">Bachelorette</a> After the final rose show (Thank Goodness for DVR!) because I was upchucking in the bathroom. Roberto - what a hottie! Hope they make it! Nick luckily didn't get it too bad at all!<br /><br /><a href="http://img.walgreens.com/content/media/images/MEDIA_ProductCatalog/m1716863_8871_FriendsandFamily_DMI_466x274_1day_05.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 466px; height: 274px;" src="http://img.walgreens.com/content/media/images/MEDIA_ProductCatalog/m1716863_8871_FriendsandFamily_DMI_466x274_1day_05.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Very excited about the great deal I just got at Walgreens. They have a coupon for 15 -20% off. <a href="http://www.walgreens.com/topic/promotion/friendsandfamily.jsp?stop_mobi=yes&ec=hn8821_friendsandfamily">Click Here</a>. I just got 15% off everything I bought. Even diapers! They have a deal right now on pampers when you buy $25 worth you get $5 in register rewards. SWEET! Oh and Swedish fish are on sale too. Brookie will be so excited she loves them - she pretends she is a penguin eating her fish.

Hopefully she isn't getting sick. I am keeping my fingers crossed that she just slept with her mouth open and swallowed too much pool water!!! Rocco went to bed at 8:45pm last night and didn't wake up until 8am! I cannot believe how he spoils me!!!<br /><br />Snapped this picture of them while they were playing on the ground.

Things are great and crazy since Rocco was born. He is such a great baby and a blessing to our family. Brooklynn LOVES her little brother and is very helpful. Too helpful sometimes! I can't beleive Rocco is over 2 months old!! I found that he is cutting his first tooth on Saturday. On his right side he is getting his incisor - maybe he is into the "<a href="http://www.hbo.com/true-blood">TrueBlood</a>" vampire craze too!<br /><br />Summer is flying by and it makes me so sad! Brooklynn is loving the pool and playing outside all the time. Here are some pictures to get caught up. My goal is to get better at blogging. :-)<br /><br />Rocco's 2 Month Picture<br /><a href="http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a0d930b3127ccefac26cfb9bb100000030O00EcNGrJs3ZMge3nws/cC/f%3D0/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D550/ry%3D400/"><img style="display:block;

I made her a slot machine/gambling cake. What a project! I would have not finished if my parents and Nick didn't help me either with the cake or keeping Brooklynn occupied. It turned out really nice and it tasted good too! The best part is my Grandma had a great time! It is always great to show those who do so much for us how much we care, love and appreciate them!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ7HSfo4GLDVWRssrySqaDesBv-lGpJyhb7FpVkETJ03iujZ3-hl32bLtf0opuiEFmqdVU6A6bnV9ycFpp5jy9BD-Auip7Y0mto4-MgCxSV9Y_oPyuQ1QoMcWgmuv4caJZRjCO4MhLcY8q/s1600-h/DSC_0383.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ7HSfo4GLDVWRssrySqaDesBv-lGpJyhb7FpVkETJ03iujZ3-hl32bLtf0opuiEFmqdVU6A6bnV9ycFpp5jy9BD-Auip7Y0mto4-MgCxSV9Y_oPyuQ1QoMcWgmuv4caJZRjCO4MhLcY8q/s320/DSC_0383.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5446284490006873986" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWfbJSyFCjgjXHTGRvAuPN3HfBDdIi2j7wmXdT0Z-Dtr93x2nHZi5CWmBeQweAlvSCOjeUKaiEyBqHlDhMXCU95HKFc4Zv6Jn8u7L1ErpS4uVrQBdRNIDlgwurcvP4A2YWlfalPni1Sclu/s1600-h/DSC_0374.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWfbJSyFCjgjXHTGRvAuPN3HfBDdIi2j7wmXdT0Z-Dtr93x2nHZi5CWmBeQweAlvSCOjeUKaiEyBqHlDhMXCU95HKFc4Zv6Jn8u7L1ErpS4uVrQBdRNIDlgwurcvP4A2YWlfalPni1Sclu/s320/DSC_0374.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5446284481016133858" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgexJADJj2_Jz6L6OkxazffN-ego9vq53EAGsCLy-i8hlq599mvA4im2eRwDRk8CG0VY9mRzuGtwr2R4LcIHtjHXSsM5KBnCo_m62QtXFyqkc3xi5MjwDgh135XjSb7BUV38uQhMA7Tme3X/s1600-h/DSC_0372.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgexJADJj2_Jz6L6OkxazffN-ego9vq53EAGsCLy-i8hlq599mvA4im2eRwDRk8CG0VY9mRzuGtwr2R4LcIHtjHXSsM5KBnCo_m62QtXFyqkc3xi5MjwDgh135XjSb7BUV38uQhMA7Tme3X/s320/DSC_0372.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5446284479384183410" /></a>Ruchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11706253720362166317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518088023043574161.post-51460126949106963202010-02-27T15:31:00.007-06:002010-02-27T15:52:32.612-06:00Diamond Tinkerbell<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLMgOCISnDkza7FjPdbLaWhlL8gfOD7_YtCxspVe2D5SEQaTm7vV91z50jqWwM-0pwdhU3SiWgSjBnyw0fY5A9zLDhkatsNtL3exTNwRv2T_l2quuAhT3DOQ_0ac2KMSgDWg5TVXc5SAYX/s1600-h/IMG_0237.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLMgOCISnDkza7FjPdbLaWhlL8gfOD7_YtCxspVe2D5SEQaTm7vV91z50jqWwM-0pwdhU3SiWgSjBnyw0fY5A9zLDhkatsNtL3exTNwRv2T_l2quuAhT3DOQ_0ac2KMSgDWg5TVXc5SAYX/s320/IMG_0237.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443042172133704050" /></a><br />This morning we took Brooklynn to <a href="http://www.buildabear.com/">Build A Bear </a>as a treat for being such a big girl and going potty. It was so much fun!!! I can't wait for Brooklynn's birthday so I can go get her some outfits for her little bear. She picked a pink bear and dressed her in silver glitter heels, a tinkerbell dress and hello kitty undies. She named her bear Diamond Tinkerbell. I can see how easy it can be to go nuts there. They have every accessory imaginable for these bears and the cutest little outfits and shoes! I have a feeling Diamond Tinkerbell is going to go everywhere with us now. So even though we didn't have to buy diapers this month her bear cost as much as a case of pampers! After Build A Bear we enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Maggiano's - YUMMY!!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoG3X6mb9lgwNLuuumpZqCjHS8BdEvzl9UcGeoKmCf8gFCHrZNotCbuI_iRaDipYk4GqffalIdtU7v0ME0a7L7QdX7Stt-t7CPb6joMT29X45KGyLvDRCW0RuLOsJgKeiPgofo63VbABp6/s1600-h/IMG_0246.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoG3X6mb9lgwNLuuumpZqCjHS8BdEvzl9UcGeoKmCf8gFCHrZNotCbuI_iRaDipYk4GqffalIdtU7v0ME0a7L7QdX7Stt-t7CPb6joMT29X45KGyLvDRCW0RuLOsJgKeiPgofo63VbABp6/s320/IMG_0246.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443042183129397362" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvBL92dpex1bhu6Pgbka81DWytnShVPp9JK6yP-4zT6EPkd9ggd965Nr4Xpk4QjH4a0VqbXvAvB05gPM2fOuHZAvwr_qxb3pFXnH_RDvUFlSEGgzTKAKVxLTH0bDxrQEPs25pZqHroui3f/s1600-h/IMG_0248.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvBL92dpex1bhu6Pgbka81DWytnShVPp9JK6yP-4zT6EPkd9ggd965Nr4Xpk4QjH4a0VqbXvAvB05gPM2fOuHZAvwr_qxb3pFXnH_RDvUFlSEGgzTKAKVxLTH0bDxrQEPs25pZqHroui3f/s320/IMG_0248.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443042186735338114" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJb6MGE8jHvUyRv0_8WHiK-LGeWgGqs4bpxZdmhF7Kw2XgmkuEqLYYA-SArXs88ulbxEU2se50pizCr_53LpZiIsR7yVolQtGPqEhiSPQD_iOOwRK7hEFoHgYu7XoEkjTHHIBjGspJnuLC/s1600-h/IMG_0251.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJb6MGE8jHvUyRv0_8WHiK-LGeWgGqs4bpxZdmhF7Kw2XgmkuEqLYYA-SArXs88ulbxEU2se50pizCr_53LpZiIsR7yVolQtGPqEhiSPQD_iOOwRK7hEFoHgYu7XoEkjTHHIBjGspJnuLC/s320/IMG_0251.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443042188493747010" /></a><br /><br />On the pregnacy front- I am doing good. I have been getting lots and I mean a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions to the point it gets hard to breathe. I finally called the doctor and she said I have to take it easy. It is my body's way of telling me I need to sit down and relax. I am doing too much and may have to cut down on my work outs. I guess they can turn into real labor if you are not careful. Other than that things are well. I feel huge and at 7 1/2 months pregnant that is to be expected. I go to the doctor Friday, I am curious to see if I am still measuring 1 week bigger which puts me back at my April 30th original due date. He measured bigger at my 20 week ultrasound in December too. Here is a picture of me and my baby boy belly.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP3SUarObfhe0zfr7RGcRmojQ7Mz-MtsviSh7UhPNDVtYA_z1UnXUFiwhl9oqBg_SrXZ40Zyp1CjxWu0Z96PhF9lBkflpy27WCso1Z4p5nBxYlyFnNyN6279vXeBEosSGe-4vN_b-db8Bt/s1600-h/IMG_0219_edited-1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP3SUarObfhe0zfr7RGcRmojQ7Mz-MtsviSh7UhPNDVtYA_z1UnXUFiwhl9oqBg_SrXZ40Zyp1CjxWu0Z96PhF9lBkflpy27WCso1Z4p5nBxYlyFnNyN6279vXeBEosSGe-4vN_b-db8Bt/s320/IMG_0219_edited-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443042858387725506" /></a>Ruchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11706253720362166317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518088023043574161.post-52219477600967458172010-02-25T10:17:00.004-06:002010-02-25T10:28:51.445-06:00Where is Brooklynn sleeping???Yesterday I put Brooklynn down for her nap like always with her normal routine. I went downstairs to work and heard her making noise upstairs. I had to go put her in back in bed. She asked me if she could watch a movie. I told her No, it is nap time. She cried, I left and closed her door. I went back downstaris to work and heard noise again but then she was quiet. I went upstairs 10 mins later to check on her and her door was open and she wasn't in her bed. I looked all over and finally found her in our bed snuggled and covered under our blankets. She slept for 3 hours!!! She is too funny!<br /><br />On another note I took Brooklynn to Nick's work yesterday and we met some of his coworkers. They are super nice! Brooklynn got to see the birds and fish that the nursing home has. She thinks it is so neat that her Dad has pet birds and fish at work!Ruchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11706253720362166317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518088023043574161.post-70806870828932354082010-02-21T14:05:00.005-06:002010-02-21T14:23:46.697-06:00Blessings Have Come Our Way!We feel so lucky and blessed - Nick has a new job!!! He is very excited about it and loves it so far. He started last week as the Referral Manager for 2 nursing homes here in Racine. He now has benefits, a more normal M-F schedule and weekends off!!! It is a dream come true for our family! We are so grateful to Jon and Lisa O,who helped guide Nick this direction. this is a great opprotunity for Nick and we know this is the way he was supposed to go! Here is a picture of Nick on his first day with Princess Snow White<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikeaDLtIC-2_8JTU22dpkRdWXZT2uke1Nj7E4V53OIzzn9wLJE7dkuX7hyJiUr-v6uh8sRWtiw1M2phyphenhyphenAsaEPCx5EbB9RteqVzC-zTAVT33OkDj4xgQrr9yavZtdhbuGKpKNJuUW_v3Iv3/s1600-h/IMG_0195.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikeaDLtIC-2_8JTU22dpkRdWXZT2uke1Nj7E4V53OIzzn9wLJE7dkuX7hyJiUr-v6uh8sRWtiw1M2phyphenhyphenAsaEPCx5EbB9RteqVzC-zTAVT33OkDj4xgQrr9yavZtdhbuGKpKNJuUW_v3Iv3/s320/IMG_0195.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440794710979699282" /></a><br /> <br /><br />My pregnancy is going great! What a world of difference from when I was pregnant with Brooklynn. I have only gained 15 lbs and I am already in my third trimester! No signs of shrek feet returning and I can still fit my wedding rings on! So far this little guy is pretty mellow. He sure can kick hard but isn't nearly as active as Brooklynn was. I hope this means he will be a mellow baby!!! I went Thursday for a free GE ultrasound. How unbelievable it was to see my little guy. He already is a cutie and looks pretty chunky! I was also reassured that he is in fact 100% boy - no doubt! I can't believe I only have a little over 2 months until this little guy arrives! Brooklynn is getting so excited and keeps telling me all she is going to do to help me with her little brother. I am sure she may be a little too helpful!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXdz72nZOmxGEa1VofR_Iv-QqLy-ov-wfjeVzeDsQN0vn4ykuo3a4ced3dfbtc9tOouT3fHb0RmpYZs1nGLkBQn1wGQlncc4s1QrAG8cZyyht_DclehS1LOup7aUN-fC7HvEA4fYziBMnW/s1600-h/RUCHELL_4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXdz72nZOmxGEa1VofR_Iv-QqLy-ov-wfjeVzeDsQN0vn4ykuo3a4ced3dfbtc9tOouT3fHb0RmpYZs1nGLkBQn1wGQlncc4s1QrAG8cZyyht_DclehS1LOup7aUN-fC7HvEA4fYziBMnW/s320/RUCHELL_4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440793017315380530" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoYjx2OUtBZyaBamZKcUUbdSu7LSvWOGjh4JCdQz6TFdGHCXc4ZKm3D2T1se7k-USY_7esEcu2Mt2fXJ81fqk3r_O1d-1O1vJMuRqJZ0ePzqElybh794nG9J5YFBWgQr0W1iivLO5thwsC/s1600-h/RUCHELL_8.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoYjx2OUtBZyaBamZKcUUbdSu7LSvWOGjh4JCdQz6TFdGHCXc4ZKm3D2T1se7k-USY_7esEcu2Mt2fXJ81fqk3r_O1d-1O1vJMuRqJZ0ePzqElybh794nG9J5YFBWgQr0W1iivLO5thwsC/s320/RUCHELL_8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440793016343167522" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFa5YSBLMpy-DzZ3P_oQcx3Yib6SrcdX5MnZOCQZ6uwMyTcGNzFd-XIqwgFJrgSu0RUbztztVRLIkgfrxlRPRNBbq_wQpDSnqTKfzxIhgqJM6duYPPs3rua-Y1I0a6cDZxVQtP2iw6IqaD/s1600-h/RUCHELL_6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFa5YSBLMpy-DzZ3P_oQcx3Yib6SrcdX5MnZOCQZ6uwMyTcGNzFd-XIqwgFJrgSu0RUbztztVRLIkgfrxlRPRNBbq_wQpDSnqTKfzxIhgqJM6duYPPs3rua-Y1I0a6cDZxVQtP2iw6IqaD/s320/RUCHELL_6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440793003552156690" /></a><br /><br />Brooklynn is doing really good. We have finally nailed potty training and she is in big girl undies and pull ups at bedtime. She wakes up most mornings dry. I am so glad that I have conquered the potty training. She was a sure pistol to figure out a way for her to want to cooperate. Her sticker chart and special potty prizes did the trick. She rarely had accidents only 1 per week! Yes - no more diapers!! Just in time to start all over with baby boy!!!<br /><br />I will try to do a better job of posting.

We feel so over joyed and blessed. We cannot wait to meet our little man. Brooklynn is very excited that she is going to have a baby brother. She keeps kissing the ultrasound pictures. She always kisses my belly and talks to the baby. So cute!!! The little man was sucking his thumb during the ultrasound. We will have to see if he remains a thumb sucker.<br />Things are going great. My 5-6 migranes per week are down to 1-2 per week. Accupunture seems to be the answer/solution. I am really excited that my weight gain so far has been only 5lbs. We will see if my eating right and exercise can keep the weight gain at a minimum. Enjoy the pictures of our little man.Ruchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11706253720362166317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518088023043574161.post-65278193685502554012009-11-03T07:21:00.009-06:002009-11-04T09:35:52.264-06:00A Case of Chicken Little?Please check this out. I have been doing lots of research on the H1N1 vaccine. This is great information from a neurosurgeon. Pretty crazy that President Obama won't even vaccinate his family with the H1N1 shot. I am NOT getting this vaccine and neither is Brooklynn. I wish I didn't get the flu shot and I am not getting the flu shot for Brooklynn. Here are a few things that got my attention:<br />1. The proteins in the vaccine have NEVER been used in humans before<br />2. You are more likely to get the Swine Flu if you receive the regular flu vaccine<br />3. President Obama has not taken the vaccine and neither has is wife. He also will not say if his children received it or not! (Maybe he has more research then what the public is given!!!)<br /><br /> Here is a link to the article: <a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/11/03/What-We-Have-Learned-About-the-Great-Swine-Flu-Pandemic.aspx">Swine Flu -- One of the Most Massive Cover-ups in American History </a><br />Here is the discussion - worth your time to listen to it!!!<br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dq2YVnwEnBw&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dq2YVnwEnBw&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Here is his website with a lot more useful information on the Swine Flu and vaccines: <a href="http://www.russellblaylockmd.com/">Dr. Blaylock</a><br />I am corrected looks like Obama's daughters and wife were vaccinated. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/10/27/h1n1.vaccine/index.html">Click here</a>Ruchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11706253720362166317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518088023043574161.post-22486884820603167592009-10-29T11:20:00.003-05:002009-10-29T11:22:45.319-05:00Happy Halloween!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgjNlbG3vUdoiP5tdwRzAZH5fBE85fZ2A9PSt3fO5WQB01AyhMUu4w2t7EuxX7dqpR7Ge51Jn2ZUbnMPrNf1Rr0pfOHLRGBFoP1Wdph0pKAw7ViSGGotlv6epxO-1dwuUnaPfUGCD5RFtD/s1600-h/Halloween-Card-email.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 286px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgjNlbG3vUdoiP5tdwRzAZH5fBE85fZ2A9PSt3fO5WQB01AyhMUu4w2t7EuxX7dqpR7Ge51Jn2ZUbnMPrNf1Rr0pfOHLRGBFoP1Wdph0pKAw7ViSGGotlv6epxO-1dwuUnaPfUGCD5RFtD/s400/Halloween-Card-email.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398058080908457666" /></a><br />Hope everyone has a great halloween!

We redecorated the bathroom and moved Brooklynn into her big girl room. Poor Nick has been very bust the last two weeks working every waking hour he is home. But, it is all finished now and we are DONE!!!! Horray!! I love how Brooklynn's princess room turned out. We are still waiting on her bookshelf that I ordered. It should be in the first week of November. Here is a picture of it.<br /><a href="http://i.walmartimages.com/i/p/00/70/69/43/14/0070694314600_215X215.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 215px; height: 215px;" src="http://i.walmartimages.com/i/p/00/70/69/43/14/0070694314600_215X215.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Here are pictures of her room.

I blinked and all of a sudden fall is here and it is 1 day away from October. WOW!<br />Well I had my first OB appointment on 9/16. We had an ultrasound and looks like I am 1 week behind according to the ultrasound. So my official due date is May 7, 2010. Here is a picture of our little bean. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZEqK7BmqVmgR0Y0EWUunROonfG2x2B9-E6X5RHDzQw7-Pcn37PgRjh9sjAWeEk-Iq8Yn8LsKmy25xzD-jmI_2sHYoPMM0ks8nWj2X2RMK57UjjW7ZnDLTRsFMIcnFFqvgGOE6OSPtmr5A/s1600-h/7+week+Ultrasound.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 341px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZEqK7BmqVmgR0Y0EWUunROonfG2x2B9-E6X5RHDzQw7-Pcn37PgRjh9sjAWeEk-Iq8Yn8LsKmy25xzD-jmI_2sHYoPMM0ks8nWj2X2RMK57UjjW7ZnDLTRsFMIcnFFqvgGOE6OSPtmr5A/s400/7+week+Ultrasound.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5387371735021451602" /></a><br />I go to meet with a nutritionist tomorrow to help me with my diet so that I can do my best to prevent edema and the beloved (HA!) shrek feet this time around! Proactive is key! I also have my next OB appointment on Friday. I have been feeling pretty good. I have my bouts of nausea and food aversions but nothing really horrible. I have really been making an effort to get my workouts in and since then the nausea has improved a lot!<br /><br />On the Brooklynn front -she is as good as it gets! She is defiantly in a testing mode and we have been having some issues with her biting and hitting me. It has improved since I try not to react as much and put her straight in a time out and then divert her attention afterwards. She has been asking me to go to "Gymbo" class all the time - so I enrolled her in the session that starts in November. I am also taking her to see The Wiggles on the 18th. I even got my parents to go so I don't have to take her downtown by myself during the day. She is super excited about that! She knows and says more and more every day. She continues to amaze me with how much she is absorbing. Today on the way back from the chiropractor she recited word for word the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdHCYgO9zh8">Brown Bear, Brown Bear </a>book only leaving out the red bird, yellow duck and green frog. She nailed all the other animals and said it word for word!

Super excited. I go for my 8 week appointment on Wednesday the 16th. I think I will get an ultrasound. Yipeee! I am feeling pretty good just get a bit nauseous in the afternoons and have been getting really tired. Other than that I can not complain. My due date (according to the due date calculators) is April 30th. I will get a more accurate due date when I go to the doctor on the 16th. I feel so fortunate that God has blessed us again!Ruchellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11706253720362166317noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518088023043574161.post-61139944489259296662009-09-09T14:28:00.001-05:002009-09-09T14:30:01.719-05:00Something to Make you Smile!!!This is so funny!

Nick is SUPER excited, go figure he golfs two days in a row! I am also very excited and cannot wait to play with Brooklynn in all the fun pools and kid areas. She loves water and has been in our pool a few times this year. She loves to wear her life jacket and float on her own. She is also starting to put her face in the water and blow bubbles. I am sure she will have a blast. I will take lots of pictures and post them when we get back.<br /><br />Here are some pictures from the Weisflog Family reunion on August 2nd. Brooklynn had so much fun playing with her 2nd cousin Colton and the bubbler.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-TXmlhA4Y3sVviwk87SVJKXtNCszzrmPh54Ikjgcvo-vSqugQQ8Dm02rENrFDzULx-zoEDTK2q78W3z1LOtebuTbs9nBOH0b4B0TnYoYiIw71-otTZzim8NUKdXwraAJiQYyoqWoUO0-I/s1600-h/CSC_0993.JPG"><img style="display:block;
