S is for sick, "school", and shower

So, whats been going on around here? Lets see...

Well, Alex caught a bug at the end of last week- yuck. He has had a low fever, runny nose, and cough all weekend. I took him to the doctor today and he has an ear infection. I am just glad its not something more serious like RSV or pneumonia. Hoping he gets better real fast here because we are getting a little house crazy!

I went to sign Alex up for Mothers Day Out for the fall on Monday morning. Yes, I am officially a crazy "school" mom! I really wanted to get him in this one program and its a first come first serve registration. Since we get to register after the church members and siblings of students, there are only a few spots left. So, you make sure you are the first ones there...that means camping out! haha, not really, but 5 am sure felt like it! Yep, I went at a little after 5 and took my spot as 4th in line. With my lawn chair, food and water, book, and all bundled up. The only thing I forgot was my tums for my killer preggo heartburn. (Registration wasn't until 8 mind you!) I was just sooo thankful that it wasnt raining! Well, I enjoyed the excitement of it all and the chatty new friends I made in line, and got Alex in! Success! He will be going two days a week in the fall and I already want to tear up about it and jump for joy at the same time.

My wonderful friends and sister threw me a shower this weekend. It was so special and so fun and just too wonderful :) That post is to come!

Here is my belly shot the day of... about 32 weeks. I am getting "bi bi big" as Alex would say. Went to the doc today and everything is still a-ok! Always great news!
