24 weeks

For the last month since my last doc appoint I have been watching what Ive been eating , salads inste3ad of fries at restaurants, cutting back my carb intake , cutting back my junk intake ( which isnt very much as it is). So I was excited to get on the scale , and feel very pleased with myself. For my last 2 pregnancy's I gained the same amount of wieght. An insane 50 pounds . I exercised and ate pretty good and it didnt seem to make a difference. so thing time I wanted to see if I could gain less.
So I anxiously hopped on the scale and waited........
9 pounds she says. I looked at her and laughed out loud like a you have got to be kidding laugh!!!!!
But she wasnt kidding !
I was was in shock!
I thought she was going to say 4 pounds like normal people are suposed to gain. A pound a week.
I couldnt believe it! I felt so good that month and was pretty confident.
She felt bad for me and checked my file and we discoverewd each pregnancy at 24 weeks I gained the same aount of wieght .
Crazy!!! So I guess Iam just destined to gain 50 pounds every pregnancy I have no matter what I do!
My body because of the size of our babies must just need to pack it on!
Thank God at least it does eventually after 7-9 months comes off!
But still, its not enjoyable watching my BUTT grow just as much!
I cant remeber what the exact wieght was this month because I think I blackede out when  she told me it. But it is defiantly some where in the 170's.
WOW
Here is the 24th weeks photo! Iam expanding nicely ! hard to believe I still have 3 weeks to go. Seems like I will get so much bigger in 3 months and I feel big now. 3 months seems like a long time but Iam sure it will zoom by and before we know it the chaos will increase!. Thank God the baby will pretty much sleep the first 3 months. So me and the boys can relax and have fun by the pool! That is if Nelson decides he likes the water this year!

A few Sundays ago

A few Sunday's ago myself and Melanie were working in  CRAZY TOWN opps I ment the nursery/preschool room at church.
Oh my , I know without a doubt that I have zero desire to be a daycare worker!
But the kids had fun doing crafts and eating snacks for like 5 min!

                                                 The kiddies with their newly made Crowns!

 Later that night after supper the boys were playing togehter rolling a car back and forth, while we waited for 6:30 pm to come so we could watch daddy on the computer at church.

 The boys were so excited and sat and watched "church "on the laptop. The services are live streamed and Pat was going to be speaking at the night service.
Nelson looking cute before I put him to bed! He was to tired to stay awake to hear daddy. After Noz was in bed Westoin and I got in his bed and watched daddy. Weston lasted about 5 min into Pat talking and he fell asleep with the headphone in his ear. To cute

Thursday morning VISITORS


Well it had been a long time since Trina and Gage came to visitor or even that we visited them.
So Yesterday morning we had a date!

                         The kids played for like 2 seconds and then of course it was snack time!
                     As you can see Nelson was already finished by the time I got the camera out.
 I couldnt get them to look at the same time . so I just kept taking them until i got one with at least one looking in each picture
Haha cute Gage

Nelson was sitting on my lap while I relaxed in the bean bag chair. that dish is resting on my belly!  The little turkey was snatching the cranberries from my dish . It had almonds and cranberries.

We enjoy visitors. Last night while talking to weston in bed, he told me that playing with baby Gage was his favorite part of his day!

ADVENTURES @ the YMCA

Well the boys lately have been driving me crazy. Weston has been borderline unmanagable which resulted in  long frustrating days. I decided that he must be bored and needed a change of pace. So after hearing Melanie and Nathaniel had been going to the YMCA , I decided to staart going again.
Mondays Wenesdays and Fridays there is a play time for the kids mid morning . It works out good because we cant get out the door early and we are home for lunch.
Playing with Daddy.  He was able to come!

                                              Very Surprised he actually put the costumes on.

                            Noz (nickname weston gave him that has stuck for us all) acting silly

                                                     My cute boyz relaxing. playing is tough
                                                                 
 Weston being cuddly. his tummy wasnt feeling good!
                     We had a 1 hr to waste til Westons first swim lesson so we packed a lunch and ate there.     I   bought quesadilla's and veggie soup for 4.99$ ! cant beat that. And it was tasty! My cheap score of a lunch was the highlight of my day.hahah

Noz loving his apple sauce. Which he has to feed himself or he wont eat it . like alm ost all food. Makes for a messy boy but a happy one!

 Cheese!

 Decided to show Weston the pool while we were waiting for time to pass. He had not been in that pool in a yr so watned to show him where he was going to be swimming.

 Chilling with my boys waiting for the minutes to pass until Pat got there!
Time to get the swimming gear on!

                                                       Ta Da 2 boys ready for the water!

                                   
                                                The boys swimming back from the deep end!

  Noz watching his big bro and daddy in the water!
