So we are in the "home stretch"! I can't believe we only have around 10 wks left! That's amazing and it has gone by so fast so far. I bet the last 4 wks will be the longest. I think my baby ticker on my page here has a mind of it's own :) Yesterday it said I was 41 wks and today it says I'm 19wks along. Weird! Anyway, I had my 30wk check-up yesterday and everything is running smoothly. I was disappointed to hear that I have to wait 6 more weeks for an ultrasound but I guess I can wait until then...lol!
Both of the boys started school this week and I think that I was the MOST excited about it! I love them both dearly but I needed them to start school :)
Trev's first couple of days have been really good. We (teachers, Jason and I) decided that we would try letting Trevor stay in a "regular" classroom setting all day this year instead of going to his "special" class for part of the day. We were pretty sure that contributed to some of his behaviors because he would feed off the other children in that room to get attention and contribute to his disorder instead of help him learn how to act in society. Thus far, he's done really good just staying with the regular pace of things. I hope this pattern continues.
Brayson was SO ready to start school! He's very disappointed that he can't ride the bus yet. I thought he was going to have separation issues because we took him to "meet the teacher" day on Tuesday and he wouldn't even look at her; he kept hiding behind Jason and I. When we walked in the door Wednesday, he was ready for me to go! Yesterday I told him I was going to walk him in and he told me that I didn't need to go. So I replied by telling him I wouldn't go into his room, that I would just walk down the hallway and he could go in alone. His rebuttle was that he could walk down the hallway all by himself :) He cracks me up!
I took some pictures and I'll get them posted sometime in the near future.
This weekend I have Jason's cousins wedding to go to and we are going to get Kyleigh's room ready to be painted. We have to take the guest bed down, patch all the holes from the previous owner and tape. Then I'll have my preacher and a couple of other gifted friends come over to help us paint and decorate!!!! I'm so excited about getting my little princess' room ready for her!

Happy 5th Anniversary!
I can't believe it has already been 5 years since we said "I do"! These 5 yrs have gone by faster than I thought they would. Here are a few pics from our "Public exchanging of vows" and reception.
I love you Jason!

Catching up
I know it has been over a month since my last blog but rest assured, my life has been anything but calm!
So let me take a look back at what has been going on. For starters, we've been going thru numerous new medications for Trevor, which have been no help. We actually got a full psychological eval for him last Tues. However, he did not finish the test. They say they got what they needed. I hope so! Trevor left this morning to go to his mom's for almost 2 weeks. I hate to see him go there but we sure do need the vacation right now.
Brayson is growing more and more into a BIG little boy! He's so excited about pre-k starting, he can hardly stand it! We've been coloring our hearts out! We're trying to learn how to cut instead of cut-and-rip the paper :) He also has started singing all of the songs at church albeit not always the right words! When he sings on the way home it is quite comical!
While Trevor is gone, we are going to try to get Kyleigh's room painted and put together. All I have right now is the crib to put in there but that will do for now. I really want to go get the armoire but I'll probably wait until Sept or early Oct.
In the past month, I've been to two baby showers and have received 3 invites to wedding showers and baby showers with more to come! It's going to be a busy few months with all of these showers. Luckily, I'll be buying and sending more than attending. I love going but you can only "Ooo" and "Ahh" so much! I'm looking forward to the few I'll be going to around here and flying back to the one for my best friend back home!
I've been feeling pretty well the past few weeks even months but this morning I started feeling really queezy. I think it's due to the start of my third trimester. I started feeling like this at the beginning of the second as well. That's probably not the real reason but that's what I think it is! I'm going to try and beg my way into getting another ultra sound done on Thurs when I go to the doc but we'll see :)
Yesterday we spent the day out at Lake Skiatook and had a great time! The water was perfect for 102ºF! Just beautiful!
Other than work being busier than it has ever been during the summer, the above has been my life for the past month......

House pics
I finally got around to taking some updated pictures of the newly painted kitchen/dining room, living room and front of the house. We haven't got the bedrooms looking the way we want them yet so those pics will come later....
We removed the ugly shutters off the front of the house and removed the shrubs and honeysuckle. It looks much better but we still have a LONG way to go to get the front looking spiffy!
We also have a new stove and microwave coming so they will match the rest of our appliances.

The kitchen has been painted but we have not put in the wood floors yet so ignore the floor please :)

We are having a....................................
GIRL! We are so excited about having a little girl to dress up and to put bows in her hair! We took the boys with us to watch the sonogram. Brayson was really shy so he didn't see much but Trevor was very interested in everything and how the machine worked :)
I was so excited that when Jason went to Wal-Mart that night, I had him pick up an outfit or something just so I could have something tangible to feel and look at that was girlie! He came back with 2 really cute outfits! Her name will be Kyleigh Rene'!
We also got to go get our new black labrador on Saturday. He is the cutest little puppy! His name is Wrigley....after Wrigley field of course!

May 30th
May 30th is the day set for us to find out if we have a little girl or boy arriving in Oct! I had an ultrasound performed yesterday but it wasn't scheduled and the little booger was flipping around every time we tried to get a peek bettween the legs.
On my way to my appt, the doctors office called to tell me that my doc was delivering a baby and they would probably have to reschedule me.....since I was already half way there, I went up there anyway. I asked if they could go ahead and check my vitals and such.....they did and I got to have the ultrasound. I have really cute pics of the baby sucking its thumb and great profile views. I'll post those soon.
Tonight we are taking the boys to a Drillers game with some friends of ours. We should have a rockin' time! Brayson will undoubtedly be dressed in his baseball uniform! Hopefully I will have charged batteries to put in my camera for lots of picture taking!

Weekend Review
This weekend was even busier than the one before when we were moving! We were crazy and decided to actually have a get together at our house on Sat. One week after moving. Luckily we have the living room and kitchen unpacked and ready for our friends to see. On the other hand, we couldn't show off our bedroom because we shoved every packed box in there to "hide" them :) But we had a great time visiting with everyone and cooking out! I've been really bad at taking pictures lately so there are none of the event so I'll have to remember next time.
Sunday was just as busy. We of course had church and the senior dinner afterwards. And then we decided to take the kids to Owasso Trail Days where they have small carnival with rides. Brayson is just big enough to ride and Trevor is getting tall enough to ride the scary rides :) I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to see Trevor nearly wet his pants or to see Brayson's amazement at all the things there were to experience. Sorry to Kim because I said I would see you at the shower and didn't end up going. But I'm sure I'll see you sometime this summer!
And then after we got home I decided I wanted Jason to go pick up my new patio set so I could "try" to put it together myself....hehe. And "try" is exactly what I did until Jason came out and used his big muscles to finish it!
Also, I had to make salsa and enchiladas for our Cinco de Mayo celebration at work. I was up until almost midnight since I didn't get to start cooking until 9:45ish. But it all turned out well and I so enjoyed cooking in my new kitchen!
This week I get my last project at school, YIPEE! Then on Wednesday I get to go back to the doctor to hear the heartbeat again. I'm hoping for a sporatic ultra sound but I bet that doesn't happen.....However, I should get to find out what the sex is by the end of the month! How exciting is that?!?!?!
