Posting from Work

We no longer have internet at home. So I will post from work on my lunch break when I can.

We are doing great. Tim is feeling better and better. He is back to his normal goofy self. He will have nights where his stomach hurts a lot but I think it's mostly from over doing it.

I have become a mini van driver. Gasp! I swore that I would never ever own one, but when you have 5 kids and one on the way you have to have a car that fits. And we can not afford the gas for a monstor SUV. So I am rockin a gold Kia Sedona. And I have to say that I actually love driving it! On the pregnancy home front we are doing good. I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes at 29 weeks. I have been doing really good on the diet and my sugars are under control. Payton has decided that he really wants to be a line backer and has been putting on the pounds like its nobodys business. We are 33 and half weeks along and the little (or should I say huge?) guy already weighs close to 6 pounds. We measure what someone at 38 weeks would! I have only gained 6 pounds total. That means that I have really lost weight right?!! Starting next week we will go for weekly ultrasounds and non stress tests to make sure that Payton is still growing and developing like he should.

The kids started school last week. Rena did so good and is enjoying kindergarden. She is still a little leary of getting on the bus every day but by the end of the afternoon she is fine. Jaxon is a pro at it by now. Both kids are already getting excellent grades. I am so proud of them.

Everything else seems to be going good. I am DONE with school and am loveing the freedom of just working and being a mom. I have to take the big test soon to get my license. I think I am going to wait until after Payton is here. I can't imagine sitting for 2 or 3 hours concentrating on test questions right now.

We are looking into getting internet back at home. I really miss it.
