I have come to realize...............

I have come to realize how much crankier I am with this pregnancy. When I was pregnant with Alex I had the days where everything just got on my nerves and I was just a little cranky. It seems that I'm cranky more days with this pregnancy than I was when I was when pregnant with Alex. I dont know if it's because if I get any rest, it's very little, or if i'm just a little more hormonal. All I know is that some days everybody ,including Alex, just bugs me!!! Even our poor cat Dash, who was kind of like another son to me and now most days i think about giving him away. Alex would most likely be devistated if we got rid of his kitty, and that's the only thing that has saved the poor kitty from getting the boot! It's a good thing i only have three months left, or who knows what I'd do!!! I feel real bad for everybody who has to put up with me, but what can I say?? I'm not usually this cranky!!! and I will get back to normal after I pop this baby out (hopefully) For my sake and everybody else's i hope that I get back to normal!

So bored

So, tonight I have realized how boring my life is when Danny is not home and I have none of my sisters or mother around to keep me company. Danny goes to Vegas every Thursday to pick up supplies for the week and to pick up his payroll, and usually I have dinner with my sister Lara and my mom. Well with Twilight opening tonight at midnight my mom and sister are both going and have to leave early to get a good seat. If I didn't have to wake up so darn early with Alex in the morning and Danny was home to watch after Alex, I would totally go. I'm very excited to see Twilight, but am waiting for Wednesday when Layne gets here, and we're going together. Anyways, I'm just so bored right now and just thought I'd bore everybody by writing about it in my blog:) SORRY everybody who acyually read this:-p

Dr visit

Yesterday i had my monthly dr visit. I didn't actually get to see him because he was really busy and Alex, my mom, and I were getting really hungry, because it was lunch time. We saw his nurse practitioner which knows as much as a dr does. Anyways, it was so cute!!! When we got to listen to the baby's heartbeat Alex got so excited!!!! He perked up and started gigling and started
saying "baby, baby". It was soooo..... cute!!! he was so excited to hear the baby's heartbeat, then later when we got home and told daddy about our day, he started imitating the sound that the heartbeat made. It was so cute!! Right now he loves baby brother, and I keep telling him that he needs to love baby brother when he gets here too. I'm kind of nervous about how bringing a new baby home is going to be. Alex loves all the attention he gets, so I think it's going to be a huge adjustment, but hopefully it wont be too scary!!!

Oh, yesterday while I was sittting in the dr office, Danny informed me that he shot himself in the hand with a nail gun. So, they kind of rushed me out of my app telling me that I needed to go take care of my husband. They probably thought that I was a horrible wife, cause I wasn't very worried. He gets hurt once a week, and not one or two weeks ago, he shot himself in the hand with a staple. I only get worried if he gets really hurt!! I just look at him as being Tim The Toolman Taylor. Always getting hurt:)

My kids a spaz!!

So, not just the other day, Alex broke his nose. Well, yesterday morning he was jumping when he fell and rolled his ancle. He made me carry him around all morning long, then I said,"Alex, you are too heavy for mommy to carry around all day. You are going to have to crawl." So, after he woke up from his nap he started crawling, and he is still crawling this morning. I dont think that his foot is bothering him too much anymore, but I think he likes the sympathy he gets.

Poor little guy!!

Last night Alex was running around and playing when he decided to run toward the entertainment center. Well, he lost his ballance smacking his nose on the edge. It started bleeding like crazy, and we didnt really know what to do. We knew that if we were to take him to the hospital, they'd laugh at us, so I just gave him some tylenol to keep him out of too much pain. He has a huge welt going across the entire bottom of his nose, but he can still breath and his nose doesn't look like it's crooked. Poor little thing!! It always makes me sad when he gets really hurt!!

So, I just thought that I would add some pics from last night. Alex was super hyper so it was kind of hard to get a good pic of him, but I did manage to get a couple.
