Baby Update
We are scheduled for the 19th at 10:30 am, unless he decides to come earlier on his own. Grandma Susan is coming down this week to help us keep Alex occupied while I rest for the last 8 days. Well, that is it for now...not much else going on these days.

ITCHY & Bitchy
Some of you may have heard about my new itching symptoms. The doctor took blood last week to test for Cholestasis. This is a relatively rare syndrome that results when the flow of bile from the liver is impaired. Bile is a fluid secreted by the liver that passes, via the bile duct, into the intestine where it is essential for the digestion of fats. The many causes of cholestasis produce different symptoms. I only have the itching so far!
FUN FUN FUN....the only cure is delivering baby early.
So with that said, we may have baby earlier than expected. I should know by Tuesday if they are going to want me in there early.
This will be a week to week thing. Every Friday they will be testing the blood to see if it is elevated and then deciding on Monday what to do. I am still scheduled for Oct 19th so it is a waiting game now!
Wish us luck.

Alex's 3rd Birthday Photo Shoot
Well this had to be the most pleasant trip to the photographer I have ever had with him. He is just such a grown up little guy now. I don't know when or how it happened? I miss my little baby. Oh well, another one is on his way and Big Brother Alex is ready and waiting patiently.

Day without Daddy
Daddy is traveling to Tulsa OK this week. It is day 2 and Alex is a pain in my butt. He was very cranky and bratty today. We went to the fabric store to try to find curtain material for the nursery. No luck, then to Target to try there again, nothing. Then we went to Lowes to get propane for the grill. After that to the dreaded McDonald's playland. I did MC paperwork while Alex played.
He watched the Pooh Heffelump movie that arrived in the mail today from Netflix. He is watching it again now and trying to go to sleep.
Mom called to let me know she drove to VA this afternoon to rescue my grandmother again. She is apparently dying again. We will see.
Our tv satelite was out for a few days due to a circuit breaker being tripped, we also had a flood because the same plug was for the heat/AC condensation pump. The joy of home ownership!
Oh well, more tomorrow.

Memorial Day photo
A new photo of myself and Alexander! This was taken in NJ by Aunt Tanya at Grandma & Grandpas house on Memorial Day weekend.
Alex's Birthday - I know I am early
I have been planning Alex's birthday party. I know I won't feel like doing it in a couple of weeks. We are doing a Thomas the Train Theme. It is one of his favorites.
I have also been working on his wish lists for gifts. Very hard for the kid who has everything. Although there is a difference in intelligence for toys these days. He is doing puzzles all the time, 100 piece ones too.
