Jon took a few good steps yesterday, not lunging forward ones, actually controlled steps forward. It's so cute looking at his face, how much he's concentrating, ahhaha. He did it again today. He attempts a lot, but is a chicken. He's getting another tooth. His mood is reflecting it. It's on the bottom, when you brush, he doesn't want you to brush the bottom. He didn't want to eat hard stuff today. I tried to take a peek, but I can't get a good look, but I'm assuming that's what's going on.

Steph finally lost the chord, so yesterday she got her first official bath. And what a crazy one it was. She woke up, the kids were going to take a bath. Jeff got them going, I grabbed her and got her going. She was mad because she was hungry, and wasn't interested in a bath at that moment. I grabbed the camera real fast. Then thought, oh... I should grab the video camera too, since I did with the other two. It was a fast bath. Not a momentous occasion like the other two were, but she did get a picture of it, hahaha. Oh well.

Today flew by. I went to my OB appointment today. Getting us all going and ready before 9am was interesting, but we made it to the appointment on time. But of course they didn't take us for another 45 minutes, ugh. Everyone behaved, that's what was important. The doctor said, why are you seeing me at 2 weeks, and I said that's when the receptionist made it, they said you were on vacation next week. She doesn't really want to see someone who's still bleeding, so she said, come back in 4 weeks, we'll just call this a visit about your wrist pain. So, I told her they couldn't get me in for another week. She got on the phone, and got me in today. Which was good and bad. 1pm... means, by the time we got home, ate lunch, it was time to go again. Jon missed his first nap, and he woke up early today 7am... and he was running late with his second nap. But they were all pretty good. Jess didn't get a nap, so she was over tired today.

I have tendinitis in both wrists, and carpal tunnel in the right one (too much clicky clicky on this computer, hahaha). He gave me cortisone shots. It was funny. The nurse watched the kids when I went in for the xray. Then they said when they were going to put the shots in, they'll take the kids in the other room. I wondered why. They said, they might get upset. I said, why... I'm the one getting the shots. They said but your reaction might scare them, ahhaha. Then I worried, how bad are these shots. I told them the kids were fine in the room. So of course I had to be brave now. And the shots did hurt like hell, but I've been through worse. So, he said it will take about 3 days to help. And he'd see me in a month. He said I should get some wrists splints. So that's our objective tomorrow. The place was closed this afternoon, so I have to drag them all out there tomorrow.

I have a thousand different appointments in the next month. I have to take Jon & Jess for shots. I have to take Jon for blood work. I have to take Steph for her one month appointment. I have my 6 week appointment. Then I have to go back for a one month check up with the orthopedic doctor, phew! My MIL still can't believe I took all 3 myself today TWICE, she kept saying why don't you call. Because I am SUPER WOMAN! And I'm crazy. I know. Jeff took all 3 to the inlaws this evening so I could nap. I needed it. Steph has been sleeping all day, since she's been in a car seat for a majority of the day. So I'm sure the night will suck.

My cousin called. One of our cousins died. So, before or after the family reunion on Sunday we'll have to stop there. Actually this woman isn't a cousin, a very close friend of them, but everyone treats her like one of the cousins. She almost became my Aunt, so I heard. She was really in love with my Uncle, but he married some idiot, so she was heart broken, and never married.

My SIL's friend was sick and in the hospital. They just can't figure out what's wrong with her. It's always something.

Oh well, that's enough blogging... I've got other sites to visit... and should hit the hay soon......
