Sometimes the weather man exagerates...

 

No doubt there are often storms predicted that turn out to just be an overcast day....well even little clouds have a silver lining! The cloud: we found out that I have become sensatized to the baby's blood type. The lining: duh, more pictures! After a week of stewing and storms brewing in our minds we went to the midwife today for a check. We got the titer value (which just says how much of a response my body is having to the baby) and it was VERY low. I am pleased as punch! I am even more pleased to say that boy looks great. He is still measuring a little bit ahead and moving like crazy. I will meet with the perinatologist tomorrow and we will go from there, but Al and I both feel that we can relax a little now.
In other news, Tenna is a big hit at the dentist's office. Several of the assistants popped in just to talk to the sweetest little three year old! Of course, she is extra funny on laughing gas, that helps.

Crackin' up and crackin' out

 

The girls are WAY into being animals right now. This series of pics shows their creative interpretation of eggs. They spent quite a bit of time "crackin' out."



 
 



I also love to show that Andi, despite the cold, refuses to wear clothes most of time. Er, no, she is usually wearing a princess dress. She can get herself dressed and undressed so there is not a lot I can do to change the situation.

 

In other news...my Tenna is almost done with her current round of dental work. We went to the dentist to check out Andi's dead tooth (yeah she looks real cool right now, I'll put those pics up soon) and found Tenna has 4 cavaties. Of course they drill me about her habits and diet. She gets soda maybe once a month and we even floss! I have had so many friends admit that they don't really care so well for their kids teeth, yet they have no cavities. Garumph! Oh well, I guess she has daddy's teeth, we shall be diligent! She is a FANTASTIC patient though, so I am very proud of my sweet little girl.

Happy V-day to girlies!

 

The girls received a V-day package from the Noyes grandfolk and they were so stoked! It's funny, we aren't that into holidays like this, but having kids just makes everything way more fun. Do you like their mucky faces? Yeah, me too. Yes, I'm the slob, they get it from me.

Seriously?

 

A little background. A few months ago I stumbled into my kitchen in the dark hours of the morning to take my daily meds. I have to take them an hour before I can eat, so it's a big priority while I am preggo ;). So I am half asleep, I pour myself a glass of water, grab a pill and go to drink. There is something fuzzy/hairy on my cup/lip so I pul back to check it out. Yeah, it's a spider! Gack, yuck, ptoowey. Well yesterday this is the sight that greeted my at the same hour of the day. So not cool! Why do they love my water? Do spiders want to be eaten? Well too bad, they get flushed down the garbage disposal! Muhahaha

 
Anywho, here is a crappy self-photo. It's all your gonna get for a while, and I know you all love seeing large viviporous women, so enjoy.

Time to party!

 
Tea party that is! I realized that I am in the double digits for days left hefting the Texas Ranger(Chuck Norris, Walker, all AKA's) in my belly, now that's means for celebration! I think we need to cram in as much girl time as possible. It's princess dresses and tea parties from here on out. Cheers!
P.S. Thanks for the tea set Aunt SoyBeanLover.

Life in isolation

 
 
So we have had a fabulous cold for a week now. The girls are ready to get out! I am ready to not have them making huge messes every time I turn around. Thank you all for your suggestions on the last post, I think I have made up my mind. I will post progress when I make some! I will also try to post a fat pic soon. I tried to take one myself, but it just didn't work, so you will have to wait until my husband can take a picture. That might be a while.

Boy's Blanket

 
Ok, so I have made this quilt top for boy, but I can't decide on a border. Do I do a beige border (same as background of center block) or a pieced border, or no border? I really am looking for opinions so please share!

Pissy-pants Pam

 
You get a funny old picture today because the pictures I was going to take will not happen. The SD card is missing, and being in the foul mood that I am we are not going to the store until I am good and ready! I am a very grumpy pregnant lady right now, I probably just need a nap, and a clean house, and a long workout. It's a good thing we are poor students or I think I could do way too much shop therapy. ;)
Anywho, this is a blast from the past pic. I was about as far along with Andi in this pic than I am now. We were visiting my mom in Boston, seeing the sights. I hope it is obvious why we think this picture is hilarious(other than the fact that I thought it was ok to wear stretch pants when I was that preggo).
