Sorry I don't write too often, I'm really not even sure how many people read this! I thought maybe I'd write something before Isaac gets here, at least. Only a couple weeks left! Oddly it still seems a long ways away to me, but at the same time it's going pretty fast. I had my 37 week appt. last night and everything is going really well. I lost 2 pounds this last week, but that's because my swelling suddenly went away! YAY! I have my ankles back!!!!! Baby is healthy, they think he'll be about the same size as Tyler but maybe just a little bigger... Tyler was 8 lbs. 2 oz., they think Isaac will be about 8lbs. 6 oz. or so. It will be interesting to see how close their guess is. Any guesses from you guys? Post a comment and we'll see who's closest! One bad thing is I tested positive for the Group B strep. For those who don't know what that is, basically it's fine for me, not so good for Isaac. I have to get antibiotics while I'm in labor. It's not really too big of a deal but I'm a little annoyed. Just one more thing to deal with!
Tyler is as precious as ever! And guess what??? HE'S POTTY TRAINED!!!!! HOOORAY! I know, I posted a long time ago that we were potty training (like back in March) but he never quite got there. It was always a fight and he did pretty well at home but as soon as we went anywhere or he got distracted at all he would have an accident. Really annoying. We decided to have him in underwear as much as possible at home and then just use pull-ups when we went anywhere. He always went in his pull up. Now, however, he has kept dry for like 5 days! Pull up and all! Yesterday I kept him in underwear even when we went out and NO ACCIDENTS! I'm so proud of him. I owe it all to the potty book we got him. This all happened after we started reading it to him!
Dean is just getting over a really nasty flu virus. He's had it since Saturday and I've never seen him so sick for so long! Today is the first day he feels pretty good and I'm so thankful since Thanksgiving is tomorrow. Just pray that Tyler and I don't get the same thing! I don't want to have a baby while I have the flu! I'll post some pics soon of Tyler taking care of his daddy. I ran out to get some lunch yesterday and when I came back Tyler had his Doctor kit out and was examining Dean. Totally his idea! Too cute!
