Feeling the baby move



I feel it now and it's so cool. I think I rarely have time to just hold still and try to feel movement, so when I do, it's pretty pronounced and unexpected. I tried to scan the first ultrasound pictures, but our scanner software isn't downloaded. But at my last doctor appointment,at 17 weeks, when I was expecting to get an order for another ultrasound, he said 3 more weeks. So, 1 down, 2 to go.
When we find out we're having a girl, the world will know. :)

Funny things they say...

It has been a while since I've posted, we've been having some health issues. During this time, however, my kids have said some pretty funny things.


On another post, I wrote about how Davey said "and don't say no" at the end of his questions. So I thought, do I say no that often? Most of the time he asks me things I really have to say no to. Well, here you go. They other day he said, "Can we practice saying yes?" It's sad, so I've been really trying to be better at practicing saying yes.


The other night after the boys brushed their teeth (thank goodness) I heard them saying "What does my breath smell like?" and breathing out into each other's faces.


Davey, instead of saying May I please? says "Hey my please?" I love it.
He blesses all the tranfsormers and trains in the house in his prayers.


The other night, just after Adam asked and I explained why Veterinarians have to go to vet school, Peter said, "I want to be a police man when I grow up."
I said "Peter, you can be whatever you want when you grow up. If you want to be a police man, then you can go to police school when you get older and learn how to be a police man."
To which he responded, " I think I'll just be a police boy. I'll need a gun."
"Oh, Peter, right now you're in Kindergarten and you need to learn about Kindergarten things."
"But Mom, Kindergarten is so boring!"
I told him I loved him and said goodnight. I went right down stairs to tell David. He was so proud. He said to his friend he was studying with, "I never enjoyed a day of school until dental school."
Then he looked at me and said,"Adam came from you, when it comes to liking school, and Peter came from me. Yep, That's my BOY!"
He's going to be a police boy...
