It's Friday!

Thank goodness I made it to the end of the week. It has been a long one for some reason! I have been feeling good, just a bit tired from work stress this week. There is no change at all with my leg vein over the past week and the support stockings don't seem to be helping much. They actually just feel like regular tights to me and I have to deal with pulling them up constantly which is so much more annoying than a sore leg! Luckily my mom is going to lend me some thicker- better support stockings to try out. Thank god it's not summer time! I can't imagine wearing those things in the heat!

We had a wonderful visit on Sunday with R, S and baby B. We went to lunch and then they came to our house for awhile afterwards. It was really nice to spend time together again. I was holding baby B at the restaurant for a short time and then it hit me "Wow- 4 kids would be really, really hard." I never figured it would be that hard but with Morgan and the 2 boys on my left and a baby in my arms, it was quite the juggling trick! (Sorry Amy- I know you are about to have this yourself so I am certainly not being negative for you- you have much more patience than I do!)

It was a fun time to see them all again and see how much their son is growing already. Although he still looks like a newborn compared to our baby- Morgan!

We also added to the family this week ourselves with a new kitty! The kids have been wanting a pet again ever since we lost our cat of 14+ years in the fall. They are so excited to have a kitten to hold and love again. Luckily, she seems pretty open to the kids picking her up constantly.
We are hoping to schedule another get together in February with R & S and will need to figure out what will work in our schedules. Unfortunately, Al is going on yet another business trip in 2 weeks which will make my life so much more difficult. I am already praying it doesn't snow that week!!!!
Our next Dr. appointment is Monday, 2/9 which will be the 27.5 week check up and the yucky glucose test! I am not looking forward to that drink again. EWWWW!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
