O.K., as a mother I have realized that sickness with my kids is just a given during these winter months. I'm trying to be strong and hang in there but come on really! I really believe Hannah and Rachel both have ear infections again. Hannah screamed all day yesterday about her ears and Rachel has scabbs in her one ear where she keeps picking at it. So, I'm calling the doctor today to schedule an appt for both of them.
I know one of us has been sick everyday for well over a month now. SUMMER PLEASE COME QUICK!
Another side note totally off the subject but I have decided not to find out the sex of the baby. I'm getting kind of excited about it. I just wanted to do somethin special for this little bundle because I feel like he/she is getting pushed aside because of all the other stuff I have to do with the girs. I'm going to call this morning to find out if the scheduled ultrasound is only for that or if it is to look at other things also. We will see.
So far the names Mike and I have decided on is Joel David or Abigail ?????.
Praying for a good week!

A funny from Hannah!
O.K. a few of my friends that blog have recently started putting funny things there kids say so I decided I would try this also.
A few weeks ago I had to take Hannah to the ER for a double ear infection and actually her doctor said it looked like her ear drum burst. So anyway, she was in so much pain but we finally got into the room and I turned the TV on for her to try to distract her from the pain. The ER doc finally came in and checked her out and said there would be another nurse that would come in with our prescription and discharge papers. So, during this wait Hannah looked at me with her sad eyes and said "Mama, I think I'm ready to eat now" I said "O.K., well as soon as we get discharged we will go through McDonalds and get you something." Hannah replied "No, Mama I want to eat here" I replied "Hannah, I don't think they have a cafeteria here and it is late, I think all they have is the snack machines". She looked at me so confused and said "Mama, I mean I'm ready for them to bring my dinner to me on a tray". I then immediately realized she remembered me being in the hospital with Rachel and her seeing me bring my food to me on the trays. I tried to hold in my laugh and smile because she was so serious. I explained to her that they would not be bringing her a dinner on a tray. She was very disappointed.

It has been a month!
Wow, it has been a month since I blogged. I think I am so addictive to facebook that I forget about my blog.
This past month we were full of sickness. Thank goodness now we are all well, except little Rach is teething. Oh, how I forgot how these days drag on until that little tooth pops up. She just turned 9 months on Feb 1st. She is now walking along the couch so I'm thinking she will probably walk early which would be nice since August is approaching soon. She still laughs all day well except when her teething gets the best of her. She really is an easy, easy baby.
Hannah keeps growing so fast. I look at her everyday and wonder where the time has gone. I remember moving here to Delaware when Hannah was Rachel's age. Hannah finally celebrated her 4th birthday. We had 3 birthday parties, wow way too much. We had a Chillicothe birthday at the bowling alley with all the cousins, a birthday party at our house on her actual birthday which only included Me, Mike and Rachel, and then her neighbor friend party that had to be rescheduled because of all the sickness.
Mike is doing O.K. He is a little stressed out at work but he is hiring an accounting assistant to help him out. He is still working on getting his MBA. He loves it and is so stinkin smart. I hope our kids take after him.
As far as me, well I'm still shocked I'm pregnant. I'm 15 weeks now you would think it would sink in but not yet. As of the last appointment things looked O.K. The only issue that has been brought up is a blood issue. They call it Anti-E antigen. I can't find alot of info on it but my doctor personally called me to assure me there was nothing to worry about. So, I'm trusting God that he will take care of it. I haven't been too sick this time which is why I think sometimes I forget I'm pregnant. I'm trying to declutter our house. I just don't get where all this stuff comes from and why it never goes away. I throw stuff away and give stuff away all the time. I love having a clean house and it just hasn't seen those days since Rachel was born. So, I'm thinking if I don't get it organized and cleaned now than it will never get that way.
So I think that is enough update for now. Hope everyone is doing well and I hope to post more often but who knows?

Hannah's Day Back
Hannah was so excited to start back to school today. As soon as she got there she got her workbook out and started working. It has been nice to start back on our weekly routines. Rachel is taking her morning nap and I'm paying my bills and updating emails, blogs, etc.
Thursday I go for my first ultrasound. Mike is taking the day off and going to go with me and Rachel (Hannah will be at school). I just want to make sure everything is O.K. I have been feeling pretty good just really, really tired. To the point that I would love to lay on the couch from 1pm-5pm. Then I get this energy boost at 5pm probably because I know I have to make something for dinner and try to straighten the house up a little before Mike gets home. But at least it is a reason to get off the couch. I'm hoping after the appt on Thursday and a few more weeks I'll get some energy back.
I'm still in shock I'm pregnant so again maybe after I see the baby I'll believe it.........
