another dr's appointment

Ok that picture is upside down. I am not sure how that happened but it did. Everything at the doctor's went well. I still don't really know a whole lot about plan aheads yet. He told me that he wants to wait until he gets the rest of the medical records before we do anything else. I sent for them they just need to get to the office. He is going to send me to a high risk doctor after he gets them. At least that is what I understood him to say. I am not sure if he is going to call me when they get there or wait until my next appointment. I forgot to ask.

Anyway on to more exciting things. The kids got to see the sonogram. It was kind of cute. Sarah asked a million questions and Albert didn't say a whole lot. The only thing Albert said was 'that's the baby in your belly'. Albert doesn't say a whole lot about baby really. He has decided we need to name the baby Albert. He says it is a boy so he won't even talk about girl names. We truly have no ideas for names. The names I like Albert doesn't like and Albert wants to wait until we know if it's a boy or girl before we pick a name. So I guess we are going to wait until I get my next sonogram which should be in 8 weeks to start picking.

Sarah had a Halloween party last night. I told her to go get ready and Albert came out all dressed up in his iron man costume. I didn't have the heart to tell him he couldn't go too. So he went to the girl's Halloween party. He was the only boy there. I guess that's OK. He was also the youngest. He didn't seem to notice really though. They had fun. They came home with a whole bag of goodies. They got lots of candy, a few stuffed animals, glow in the dark vampire teeth, shoe lights, and all kinds of other stuff.

The above picture that's my girl scout co-leader. Then of course you can see they kids. Sarah is a doctor or vet without her bear. Albert is iron man with no mask because they were eating.

I couldn't get the table. There are more girls that I didn't get. The girl standing is whose party this was. This is all the pictures I took because I took with my cell phone. I forgot my camera yet again.

Mini Vacation

We had an unexpected vacation over the weekend. We got called by our time share company. We had to go down there for a meeting (they tried to get us to upgrade). So we ended up deciding to stay for the weekend instead of just for the day. The kids had lots of fun. They were really tired when we got home yesterday. They are on their intersession so they aren't missing school. The meeting was Sunday morning. We went and they fed us breakfast and while we were eating there was magic man. It was pretty funny. The man did a trick where he put a dice in a wooden box. The box had two sides the die was the size of one side. He put it in there and asked Sarah which side the die was on she told him and he tilted the box opened it and it of course wasn't there. Sarah thought she just had it figured out. After a few which side of the box is it on Sarah said it's on the opposite side I say because you tilt the box when i give you an answer. By this time the whole place is just busting up laughing. So anyway he said OK you want me to open both sides he did and no die. Sarah was completely shocked. It was so funny. That wasn't the only trick he got her on. There were a few it was really funny. I wish I had my camera. It would have made a really good video. Oh well can't get everything on video I guess.

After our meeting we went to the indoor water park. They kids completely played out their dad. I didn't want to over do it so Albert took the kids on the water slides a million times. We played on the water playground thing. We all got really wet. It was a lot of fun. It was nice to be able to take the kids out and have some fun. We didn't get to go fishing this time. We really didn't have the time. We had to come home yesterday. I had a doctor's appointment this morning so we couldn't stay any longer. We are thinking about taking them to a place closer here for the day and going fishing then. I don't know when we will have time though.

As for my doctor's appointment I will go in to details later. I want to get my new sonogram pictures on the computer yet. I have to finish getting ready for girl scouts tonight. Everything went well at the appointment though. I will post again maybe tomorrow.

this and that

Well I don't really have much to report really. We are all doing well here. The kids can't wait for their intersession to start. They have their first break starting the 20th. So they have one more week of school then a break. They can not wait and neither can I. Albert has been a little grouchy in the mornings. I think he needs a little time away from school to relax some and maybe catch up on some sleep.

I have been keeping pretty with girl scouts. I didn't realize how much truelly was involved when I agreed to be leader. I have a co-leader but still I have to do the largest portion of work. I am having fun with it though. We have a really nice group of girls. They are for the most part all little ladies. They get along well and listen to me and each other. It is a lot of work and a lot of planning and a lot of time but it is all worth it. Plus I now have something to with myself now both kids are in school.

My next doctor's visit on the 21st. I should know more then about what the doctor wants to do about trying to lengthen this pregnancy. He mentioned the progesterone treatment. I don't know what he will do though. He told me it all depends on what is in my medical records (which by the way is not easy to track down from all over the country). I will have the ones from my miscarriage and my pregnancy with Albert. I don't know how much will be in there of my delivery though. I did the required paper work and they should be sent to the doctor's office but it all takes time so I am not sure how much will get there before my appointment. I am hoping all goes well from here on out with this one. I know that a full term baby means Albert won't be here but I would rather have a full term than a preemie. He has missed the two previous births so it won't be to much new really. OK so it is a big disappointment but that's the military for you though.
