This & That...

What a week.

I was on a roll for accomplishing so much and feeling really good about it. I finally got our bags packed for the hospital, most of the house projects are done now, Karleigh got the flu and had to stay home from school on Monday but she just vegged on the sofa and I got a ton of cleaning done. Tuesday afternoon I managed to paint Rylan's floor, a table for the girls' room, wash Rylan's walls, clean the bathrooms and got a bunch of laundry done. Then Rylan got sick on Tuesday night just as we were crawling into bed. Luckily his Spring Break started Tuesday afternoon. Jim felt nasty on Tuesday as well and by Wednesday, I was wiped out with it. Thankfully, everyone had Wednesday off. I had to cancel my OB appointment, lost almost 5# and spent several hours with painful contractions, 5 minutes apart. Of course, that was just due to the dehydration. I've been feeling a bit better today but believe it or not, even the dog threw up today. Awesome.

The kids are both officially on Spring Break now so hopefully I'll be able to keep up with everything that I've done. I'm feeling pretty good about what's done. All of the "have to's" are done and most of the "want to's" are done as well so now it's hurry up and wait and try to come up with little things to keep me busy.

And in a brag, Karleigh got her second report card today. I'm so proud of her, her marks were pretty incredible. Now I see why her teacher said that she might be a bit bored in class. The end of year benchmark for reading is level B. They do have books labeled level C that she has been bringing home to practice on but she generally just chooses her own books in her room to read. When I looked at her reading level on her report card... F! No wonder she's bored and squirly during reading time.

Sorry for the boring post, not much to write about when you're sick and just waiting for something a "bit" more exciting to happen! Oh and it looks like you can vote once per 24 hours in that belly pic contest but I'm not holding my breath nor even thinking about it much at all. I'm just thankful to have a baby belly right now!
