Day 2 - Day 3

So I didn't get a chance to post last night but success!! Sink was shiny and kitchen clean before going to bed.

We also kept the kitchen and dining room cleaned all day and tackled the living room. Woot!

Today i mowed the whole lawn, yay! Only took close to 4 hours and god bless mothers helpers :)  Did not get anymore done inside the house but we kept the kitchen and dining room picked up and the living room is still mostly clean. A few odds and ends that need a home have made their way into there.

But, sink is shined and kitchen is cleaned. 3 nights in a row. Lets keep this up!

Day 1

So I am going to start here and really push myself to start organizing and getting my house, my life in order and you got to start somewhere right?

So, shine your sink. I have a clean sink at bedtime here and aim to make that happen nightly. That is step 1 because if you have a clean sink you most likely have a clean kitchen and a clean space to start the day.

So, Day 1.

Pregnancy #4 and I am so done

I don't know how women have kid after kid after kid.  Each pregnancy I've learned more about myself and my body but not always in good ways. 
Discovered Thyroid disorder after Nathan that is under control now.
Discovered a mutation  on the mthfr gene and a clotting disorder after Quin which led to blood thinners this pregnancy.
Lost my gallbladder in there which totally changed how I look at food.
Let's not forget the prolapse uterus which I had managed to stabilize with diet and lifestyle before I went and got pregnant again...
Now I've been diagnosed borderline gestational diabetes and told to watch my diet...
Yep, I couldn't love each of my kids more then I already do.  They are my life and my husband is my rock but I don't want to know anything more about my body for a while.  I want to meet this little girl and get my disorders under control once again.
Sigh.  Guess I'm just feeling really overwhelmed.

Big healthy boys!

Quinton is 1 years old!

So little q is a year old now. We had a bbq with friends and family to celebrate. We even got a bounce house for the occasion that j and n loved!  Well all three loved it. Three peas in a pod,  yes.

We also had our annual check up with the doc.  Q is just shy of 30 inches and a solid 20 lbs .... all around 50th percentile which is odd after the other boys being in the 90th percentile,  lol.

Most important is he is healthy and getting stronger every day. His right hand is showing marked improvement in flexibility and strength, won't pick anything up with it but defenitily grabs at :-)

Right foot and leg are still a little stiff but PT is really helping!

Full crawl was reached at 11 months,  one month ahead of schedule.  Independent walking goal is 18 months and he is on track to walk before then but seriously,  no rush.

Saw the hemotologist, did full bloodwork earlier this spring and everything is normal except for the earlier discovered mutations.  This doc doesn't want to see us again for a few years!

We see the neurologist today so I will update on that later.

He is eating well and getting better at sleeping.  Two teeth in and still a good nurser. Cuddly little snuggly boy for sure :-)

Oh,  climbing and dancing are his favorite activities right now!

Boys

Just a fun snapshot of each boy on there 1 year birthday. They had their own personalities by then for sure :) Can you guess who is who?
