Appointment #2

Ok, so this is try #3 with this post, so lets hope 3 times the charm. My internet keeps quitting on me for some reason, so I'll make it quick. I took both boys to my appointment with me this month even though I knew Jeff wouldn't be able to come with. I was a bit nervous because my boys get into everything when we go somewhere new for any period of time. When I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING. Nothing is safe from their little fingers. Anyways it went a lot better than I expected and I am happy to report they were both good the entire time. Jackson actually stayed in the waiting room and quietly played with a wooden train set the entire time I was in the exam room. Owen stayed in the stoller and with me, which was as it always is, he wanted to get out and explore. When he was released, exploring is what he did, for a little while at least. It wasn't long and he was back in his restraints.
As for me, so far everything but my white blood cells look good. We aren't sure what's up with them, so they are being retested and if they are still funky when the results come back I'll have to go to a hematologist, or blood specialist, to figure out what the deal is. I'm not sure if it's good or bad or what at this point, so I'm just waiting to see what comes back. Because I've still been feeling not well lately, and I know it's not related to pregnancy, I'm also having a full food allergy pannel done to see if we can pin-point exactly what is making me feel like crap. Baby was hiding so we didn't get to hear the heartbeat for long enough to measure it, but we heard it and that's all that really matters. Anyways, I think that is all I have to report for now. I'll try and let you know what my test results say when I get them but keep me in your prayers until then and just hope that they came back weird because I had a cold and felt terrible at my last appointment. Love you all and hope you are well.

Hair Cut and Pictures

My sweet little baby's curls have all gone bye-bye :( I don't know if I have any good pictures of them on here, but it was definatly time for a hair cut. He would wake up with a literal poof of fuzz on the back of his head that was usually calmed down by his milky covered fingers during breakfast. He definatly liked to play with his hair because it was long enough to play with. All sorts of food stuff went into it and I was nearly tempted to bathe him every single night just because of it, but every other day does just fine :) Now his hair is short and it isn't as soft and he doesn't have ringlets sticking out the sides of his head, but he is still darn stinking cute.

Before haircut. Look at those curls! And the poofiness!

After his hair cut.

The beautiful curls are all gone :(

We can tell his hair is still going to be really curly, which is something I was a little worried about. I've seen little boys and girls with beautiful curls until they get their first haircut, and then the curls just go away. I just love curly hair on babies, don't you? Anyways, here's a few overdue pictures. Enjoy!!

Apparently Bananas with ketchup is pretty good. At least these two think so. Eeeeww!

Cheese!

Dipping it

Ew.

This boy loves his ties.

 

Where's Owen? He's figured out how to put on his own shirt and can occasionally take it off too. Sometimes he even manages to get his pants off.

Boo!
