Quick diet & weekend update!

First of all: Harper only woke up once last night! It was awesome. And I didnt have to hold him but he did sleep right next to me. Spencer's alarm went off at 4am and after that I kept waking up randomly and just staring at him waiting for him to wake up again but he didnt until like 7:30 and then he was up for the day.

He fell back asleep like an hour later and I got a shower in before Alikah woke up.
Lisa was coming to pick her up at noon so we played in her room for the most of the morning because I wanted to spend some extra time with her.

After she got picked up Harper and I did this for the rest of the day::) (Laid on the couch while I caught up on Intervention)

Diet update since its Friday...I've been eating pretty good but I havent lost any weight. BUT I ran today! Ive been saying I was going to for awhile but today was the first time I actually did. And it felt pretty damn good. The neighborhood next to us a big circle so I went around that. I switched between running and walking but I ran a little over half of it. Im making it a new goal to get to the point where I can run the whole way. I took an inhaler before I left but my asthma was definitely the worst part about it still.

Right now Harper's been awake since like 6:30/7 - so 4 hours - but we are kind of hoping to get him on a schedule like this so he sleeps better at night.

Alikah's coming home tomorrow morning...we were going to look at another reception site tomorrow but my Mom finally gave me her budget for us on Wednesday and were pretty sure were going to go with Muskego Lakes. So now tomorrow is just running errands and relaxing.

Then Sunday were going to State Fair! I think were going to keep it a surprise for Alikah because she LOVES fairs so much. Im pretty excited!

I feel like a grandma

I started feeling sick a couple days ago and ended up with a nasty cough and an asthma attack I would not get rid of. I couldnt get into my doctors office so they suggested I go to urgent care. The lady at the front desk told me it was an hour and a half wait but once I told her what was going on she called a nurse to come get me right away. I had 2 breathing treatments and they gave me prescriptions for steroids, refills for my nebulizer and also an antibiotic to help me fight off any infections while my lungs were so weak. The doctor told me that if it gets worse I need to go back right away and she told me if I would have tried to wait until the 8th (My 1st appt for baby) I "wouldnt have made it." The steroids will get to the baby but they only gave me a high dose of them for the next 7 days so hopefully I wont have to take them the entire time.

We move in two weeks!!! :) And have names for the baby picked out already! First names, at least. The first girl name I told Spencer about has grown on both of us already..the more we think about it the more reasons we find to love it.
