Update

So now that most of the world knows, I will tell it hear also. We are having another baby!!

The last 5 weeks have been horrible. Not morning sickness, it is all day and night sickness. I have no energy to do anything. I get home from work and head right for the couch. Michael has picked up the slack and is taking care of the kids and the house and cooking. Thank you, honey!! I couldn't do it without you!

We are 11 weeks 1 day today. So am hoping that I start feeling human again very soon. It has been hard to get excited yet about another baby when I feel so ill. I don't remember being THIS sick with any of the others. Don't know if that means girl or boy!? :)

This little one is due to arrive around August 24th! Papa Judd is hoping for the 28th which is his birthday. So far I have not been late with any of them. But of course this one is already a bit different so you never know!

Last week I spent the whole week home with sick boys. Thing 2 and Thing 3 had a cough and fever for 5 days straight. We went through so much Motrin and Tussin! Thankfully everyone is feeling better and Thing 1 did not get sick. Just a little cough and stuffy nose. I can handle that!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Catch Up

I feel like every direction of my life needs a little catch up right now! Do you ever feel that way? My kids need more time with mom, my husband needs time with his wife, God is waiting for his time from his child, my house needs more attention from me, my laundry needs more time from me. AGGHHH! I wish I could do it all well. I seem to be just doing the bare minimum in every part of my life. That being said, I think this weekend I will start with one of the areas and just work from there.

Michael switched jobs the end of November and with this job change comes more hours of having him home!! YAY. One perk is that he doesn't have to work Saturdays anymore...except...for 2 Saturdays in December and one this last week of mandartory overtime :) However, this Saturday he is off and we are all SO excited to have him around. I am thinking some major house time will happen! I wonder what I will start with first.

My kids have not been very helpful lately. Complaining everytime I ask/tell them to do something. They are 9 and 6 (and 2.5 but he is my best helper). What do you do to get the kids to help without complaining?

After a day of a catch up we are going to relax a little on Sunday. Church in the morning and then later we will be watching the Vikings/Cowboys game! GO VIKES!! (well except that in the voting pool that I chipped in on I voted that the Cowboys would win!)

I hope you all have a great weekend!
