I love this picture of my boys.....

I have a Christmas card i want to put this picture in to use, but i don't know that we will end up doing it. Money. Ya know.

This week has been a crazy week...i hope we are getting this all out of our systems before we fly on monday. I hope monday goes smoothly. I am NOT looking forward to flying and the jet lag we will experience for the first 3 days while we are back hom. :(

Monday...Tanner was wheezing. I haven't heard him wheeze in a few yrs. so i took him to the ER. We were at the ER from 7-11 pm.

Wednesday: Tanner has some severe allergic reaction after rolling around in the grass. His whole eye got swollen and red and inflamed. 

Thursday: He vomitted on his bedroom floor and then on his toy room floor....but he never had any signs of wanting to throw up. He didn't feel sick and it just came on suddenly. I kept him home for an hour and he seemed totally fine, so i took him to school. I just thought it was a fluke thing.  I get a call from the nurse at noon saying tanner feels sick. I go get him and he does totally fine the rest of the day UNTIL later that night...he pukes again all over the toy room floor.  He has always been really good at getting to the bathroom to vomit. So, this kind of surprises me. Shane asked him why he didn't go to the bathroom. He said he didn't know it was coming. I think its the allergies making him vomit. He has them really bad this year for some reason. And i think he has so much snot that its upsetting his stomach.

Friday: Then this morning Jaydon comes running into the house grabbing his mouth asking for water. He licked an elephant ear plant, which are poisonous, and his mouth and throat were burning. I almost took him to the ER, but turns out i got some answers that he would most likely be fine. If he had eaten and swallowed some THEN i would take him in.

Last week, the boys left the front door open during the evening. Shane and i had no idea.  We start hearing shuffling around in the dining room. Shane goes in and there is a BIRD in our house. He started flying all over in a panic. He ppooped all over the kitchen and dining room. It was even on the walls and stuff. It was digusting.

This all makes me kind of nervous. I hope our flight and everything goes fine and smooth. Today and tomorrow are CRAZY DAYS and i don't even feel like i have time to get ready for monday! It's creeping up on me so fast. So many things to do in so little time. eek!!!

{History has a tendency to repeat itself}

Boy is that the truth! :)  I am still in shock that we will have FOUR boys. I didn't realize that i was convinced in my mind that we were having a girl until we found out it was a boy. I continue to be in shock over 24 hours later.

It's funny because the lady doing the ultrasound kept giggling because the baby kept kicking and moving all over the place. She said, "Well, it looks like he is using your bladder for a trampoline!"  I just laughed because i have felt that way ever since i got pregnant with him. With the other boys i never had to get up in the night to pee, never felt those urgencies like most women. This time i have felt it, strongly. Sometimes he will just plant himself right on my bladder because i get this sudden feeling like someone is pushing their hand on my bladder. He is definitely a mover. I feel like he is my biggest mover so far. He is always moving and kicking.

We are really excited to have boy #4...my shock will subside soon. :) We are for sure done after this one. hahaha! oh man! Good thing shane is going into pediatrics because he is going to have a lot of food and sports to pay for! CRAZY! I think how fun it will be for these four brothers to grow up together, and hopefully be really close. :)

I am excited to see what he looks like...will he have a huge head like his brothers did? probably. :) Will he have blonde hair like two of his brothers, or brown hair like one of his brothers? Blue eyes, or brown eyes? I think it would be fun to get another that looks like Tanner....Jaydon and Gavin looks so much alike, so im sure tanner would love to have someone that looks like him. :) We will see.
