So I guess you could say that I have been slacking a little bit, I think about adding an update all the time and I check my friend's blogs all the time, but don't sit down to do my own:( SOrry! I can honestly say that I have been busy, a good busy:) We went to Iowa for the month of June and the kids had a blast meeting all their new cousins, seeing grandparents, and spending time on the farm. It was nice to be home for awhile, but when we got back to Nashville and walked into the house, it really felt like home:) It is crazy how much of our little family has changed in the past year and 1/2! We have our house to the point where their really is nothing that needs to be done anymore, no big projects. Dakota and Dalton are going to be room buddies once the Baby D gets here so we got a new bunk bed with a twin on top and full on the bottom. Dakota loves it! Dalton will be in a crib for a while, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like to climb to the top too!
Dakota starts Kindergarten next week and I can honestly say I am not ready, yes it will be nice to have one less body to look after once Baby D gets here, but I am going to miss my little lover boy, he is such a sweet boy! But, he is ready and will be riding the bus in the morning for 15 min. and at night for 15 min. so we will see how that goes! Dakota also started football 2 weeks ago and what a time consuming little sport here in the south! If he didn't like it so much we wouldn't be doing it because he now has practice 2 nites a week for 2 hours!!!! They won their first tournament this past weekend which he was pretty excited about!
Sadi will be starting 3 year old preschool in 2 weeks and can't stop talking about it! We did a couple week camps that were all morning long this summer to get her ready to be dropped off and left and she did great! First time getting dropped off and she had no problems. So we will keep you posted to how she does with her rules at preshool:) Sadi also starts dance again in a couple of weeks, which will be on Fri. mornings. We asked if she wanted to do soccer or dance and dance won out in the end!
Dalton is a momma's boy. What can I say but he loves me a lot:) AND, he is really going to have a hard time once Baby D comes because even now when I hold his cousins and the neighbors little guy he gets mad!!! He is also our first big guy in the family, Dakota is just average across the board. Sadi is getting there, 50% for height and 25% for weight. BUT Dalton was in the 85% for height and 35% for weight!! OH, I also forgot that yes his head is big too (90%):) He is finally walking and liking it more everyday.
Baby D is doing really well! He is in the 60% right now and the ultrasound tech. informed me that he has a lot of hair that she can see, so be expecting a mullet when he comes out!!! I have appt. twice a week right now until the end. I have an ultrasound to check his blood flow and a stress test everyweek. My lovenox dose goes down next week and then I will stop the lovenox completely 4 days before c-section. The c-section is scheduled for Sept. 9 at 8:30 am check-in time and I am counting down the days:) Everything a out and ready, I have the bottles in the cupboard, the pump on the countertop and with new attachements, the pack-n-play set up in our room with all the changing goods, and his clothes are all cleaned:) Just need to pack a diaper bag for the hospital and I am good to go! Mom is coming on Sept. 7-18 (Dad is coming out the 15-18) which will be a blessing and then Nolan's mom is coming out Sept. 21-25! BUT, our door is always open the family and friends that want to meet the little guy, don't be shy!
Nolan is keeping himself busy busy with work but I think we might go to the Williamson County fair tonight when he gets home! Have a good one and talk to you all soon! Enjoy the pics!
