any day now

we are sick. still.

blah.

eli and i have been to the doctor finally and we both have ear infections and sinus infections.

(i have never had a sinus infection in my life. neither has eli. it is not fun!)

we both also have RXs for amoxicillin.

none of this has really slowed little boy down. 

almost just the opposite, because now he is refusing to nap.

once we get home next week i am planning on showing him who's boss and he does NOT decide the sleep schedule around here. 

right?

eli has started to put some words together.

like choo-choo tracks

big stool

blue cup

it's really cute because he still leaves a big pause between the words.

he also does the hand gestures for itsy bitsy spider. 

and likes to carry around this cooler/lunch bag like a man purse.

grandma thinks maybe he should keep some personal items in there, like wipes and maybe some tractors.   :)

23 weeks today.

my belly is enormous already.

i'm not taking a picture of it.

customers have already started to say to me: any day now...?

this week i will tell you pregnancy is not fun and i don't like it.

i am sick and cranky and emotional and tired.

here's hoping tomorrow i feel a little more human now that i have started antibiotics.

on a positive note, i had to take my wedding ring off by now when i was pregnant with Eli and my feet/ankles were swelling pretty big.

so far no swelling. fingers crossed.

good thing pregnancy produces this:

and makes it all worth while.

i'm not good at having babies but i like the babies i make:)
