Easter

Friday we traveled to my parents house so Brian could go hunting with my Dad and Brother :) Megan had kind of a rough night because of her shots but she did great considering! Saturday she was still a little fussy but nothing some tylenol couldn't help That night we went and had Sweatman's Bar-B-Que which was GREAT!!!

Sunday she woke up at 4:15 am. From that point on Mommy was up even though Megan got to nap during the day. We all got up and went to church! My Great Aunt finally got to meet Megan :) We then had lunch at my Dad's. We had some great food too!!! Next we went to Elloree and my Uncle finally got to meet Megan :) There aren't enough hours in the day because we didn't make it to Lexington to see Mrs. Nancy and Elizabeth and them :( They need to move closer this way!!!

Monday was my last day to be with Megan :( Yesterday I went back to work for the first time in 2 months! WOW! Yesterday was rough!!! My kids had lost their behavior training from the beginning of school! Needless to say they didn't not like me comming back and giving orders the way I do! So today I put them back in a seating chart setting, went back over the rules, and threatened the crap out of them!!! Needless to say today was still challenging but better! I hope tomorrow is even better! We will see! It is a definate though that I am ready or June 4th to get here!!!!

Doctor Appointment

Today Megan had her 2 month appointment and it went great! Dr. Rodgers said to keep doing what we have been doing because Megan is doing great! She is now 23 1/2 inches. She was 20 inches when she was born. Her height puts her in the 90th percentile. Seems she is gonna be tall like her Daddy! Thank goodness!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she continues to grow in height the way she has been! She now weights 11 pounds 12 ounces! She was 8 pounds 4 ounces when she was born. Her weight puts her in the 75th percentile. I was worried that she didn't weight enough for her age because all of the kids on the What to Expect February board that I follow are around 14 and 15 pounds. With the exception of a few! So I am very happy with her height and weight!!!!!!!

She also got her shots today :( I felt so bad for her!! She was already a little upset from having her hips checked and everything else she had checked. Plus she was hungry! She screamed but not as loud as she can when she got her 3 shots. Then she sucked down the oral vaccine quickly because she was hungry. She fussed for a little bit after that until she got her bottle then she was quiet happy!! Within eating two ounces and riding in the car she was out. This was around 11 o'clock it is now 2 and she is still sleeping!

She is starting to sleep through the night now! I am just ready for it to be consistant! hahaha Sometimes she sleeps from around 12pm after her feeding to around 3, sometimes 12-4 or 5, she has been known to go until 6 or 7. There have been a few rare times she feel asleep around 11, but most of the time 12-1. Its crazy! I guess I need to get her on a schedule! I have been letting her do what she wants with sleeping and eating. Her eating is the same way! All over the place! There are times she will eat 7 ounces, then sometimes 4, then sometimes only 2. I wish she would be consistent in her amounts because fixing too much I waste formula or fixing to little I am constantly getting up to fix more! Ahhhh!

This weekend is going to be Megans 1st over night visit to her Grandparents house for Easter :) I know they are excited to see Megan and watching my brother and sister with her is great! You would think she is their child and not mine hahaha :) I will report how her first visit goes! Also, I start back to work next Tuesday :( I keep telling myself its only for 8 weeks then I will be home for 3 months. I am glad she will be staying home with Brian or other family members during that time! She will be where she is comfortable and with people she knows! Also, not around other kids and their diseases until she is old enough to handle it! I will make it through the next 8 weeks some how :(

Happy Birthday To Me!!!!!!!!

Today is my BIRTHDAY :) I had a really good day! As I put in my last post our power went out last night. So no clocks this morning. Brian woke up with a bad pain in his hand and his head was bothering him so he took the day off. (Probably shouldn't have worked on my grandma's sprinkler system yesterday without taking sinus medicine and as for the hand oops I guess) :) My mother-in-law came down and we went shopping! I got some clothes for me, clothes for Megan :), and shoes. Then we went and got our toes done and I got my eyebrows waxed.

We have been going non stop lately. Saturday was a beautiful day. So we went to the Flowertown Festival in Summerville. It was extremely packed! We bought a smocked dress for Megan and a name plate for her room. I will have to take a picture of it and put it up its so cute. The woman paints beautiful things of all kinds of stuff animals, plants, bugs, etc... Her website is http://www.byrdislandart.com/. Sunday we went to Elloree and Lone Star to see my side of the family. We have so much going on in the past and comming up. I try to post when I can but it causes me to have novels to post lately. I will try to do better :)

Megan is getting so big and doing alot more now :) She loves cealing fans and lights!!! She can stare at them for hours! This week she has really noticed her arms, hands, and tongue! She flails her arms about all of the time. She knocks her bottle out of her mouth, loves to suck on her hands but does not like a pacifier, and is constantly licking her lips! She is just too cute. I love her to death!

Update

I know I need to write an update! I had full I intentions of doing one tonight! Well we have lost power! So I promise one is comming it will just have to wait until tomorrow :(
