HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Yep, I'm about a month late on this posting. Sorry, Kevin!

Here's Preston getting some cuddle time with Daddy on Father's Day.

Preston & I made Kevin his favorite breakfast.

POOL FUN

I've been a terrible blogger this summer, but with pretty good excuse. Preston and I are busy playing during the day and by the time he gets to bed, me and my enormous belly are ready for some couch time. I'm attempting to catch up a little before more baby pics come our way.

Preston is a little too brave for my taste around the pool. He loves to jump in. It just makes me nervous that he'll do that when Daddy is not there!

ROUGH WEEKEND

Have ya ever had one of those weekends where you need another weekend just to recover from your weekend? That was ours. My saga began Thursday at 3AM. I woke up feeling like I had the flu. I didn't sleep the rest of the night. I went ahead and tried to get ready for my workshop Friday, but by 7:30, I decided I just wasn't feeling well enough to go. Kevin took Preston to my mom on his way to work since I wasn't feeling well. I couldn't make it off the couch all day. By 3PM, I was convinced that I was sick and/or in pre-term labor. I called my mom to take me to the ER while Kevin met me there. They determined that I was dehydrated and I was indeed having contractions and was dilated 2 centimeters. They gave me fluid and drugs which knocked me out to let me rest and to stop the contractions. I had orders to drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. They assured me that the next day I should be as good as new.
And back to the ER.... Saturday morning, I was not as good as new! I felt worse. By noon, the contractions were back and worse and I felt even more sick. Scared that this little guy is going to arrive too soon, I decided to go back to the ER. My temperature was up which was affecting Blaise's heartrate. Fortunately, I had not dilated any more from the night before despite the contractions. They tested for the flu and bacterial infections, both of which were negative. They decided that I had a virus and gave me more fluids to move it through my system. And off we went again.
Today, I am finally starting to feel better. I woke up hungry for the first time in 2 days, but still haven't had much of an appetite. I'm still battling a low fever and chills, but no contractions!
My csection had been scheduled for August 11th. After this weekend, I feel like it's a joke! I'm suppose to have the csection the week before that, but my Dr. will be on vacation. Perfect timing! I somehow don't think Blaise will stay in there quite that long. I'm hoping to get him to stay indoors for 3 more weeks. He's been giving me hell today for everything I've put him through this weekend! I just want to bring my baby home with me this time around, so hopefully for his mom's sake, he'll stay put.

INDIANAPOLIS CHILDREN'S MUSEUM

In June, we took a trip to the Indianapolis Children's Museum with my brother and his family. It was a lot of fun! Preston had a really good time.

I think he liked the trucks the best!

My cute little dino!

SORRY, MOMMY!

I've been slacking off with my blog lately, so I'm attempting to catch up before Blaise arrives!

I'm sure all my mom friends know that when it gets really quiet, they are up to something! I went to check up on Preston and his response to this mess was "Sorry, Mommy!" I was too busy laughing to be mad!
