Teeth

I just discovered this morning that Lucian is getting even more teeth. At the moment he has twelve and I think that by the time is he two years old he might have all of them, if he keeps going the way he is now.

He is also starting to grow out of all of his clothes, once again. It seems like I just put away a bunch of clothes that he grew out of and now I have to pull a bunch more out and put away a another bunch. Although I should think about starting to get things ready for the baby at the same time, that way it is a lot less work later. Unless that is, Lucian grows out of another bunch of clothes before the baby comes.

Doula's

Today we had a meeting with the Douala's that we are going to hire to aid in the birth of the little bean. They were great!! We were so impressed with them and they made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, which is what I will need at this next birth. Most likely Brandon will not be able to attend the birth of the next little babe seeing as he will be home with Lucian. At least until my mom gets up here. So I really need someone there to help and support me through labor, I am so scared of being alone! I am having really mixed feelings about the labor because on one hand I want it to really quick and over with but on the other hand I really want it to hold out until my mom shows up so that Brandon can be present at the birth.

I also don't think that I will be delivering at the Royal Alex anymore because I really hated it there the first time, why would I go back a second. So we are checking into a birthing center in Stony Plain. It seems like a really great place where they focus a lot more on you and your family instead of just treating it like an assembly line and throwing you into a room so that they can forget all about you. I am going to an information session on March 7th. Lets home everything goes well.

Lucian is all boy!

Well in the last week Lucian has gotten his first big bruise, chipped a tooth and cut open his toe. He is so rowdy sometimes and so crazy that I think there is no mistaking that he is all boy. We have been putting him to bed a little bit earlier and it has really been helping with his moods. Sometimes he can get really really cranky but we found the earlier his bedtime the better.

Brandon hurt his neck this last week, playing with Lucian. He was throwing him around and playing and Lucian kind of landed on his Brandon head. So Brandon has been all doped up trying to get rid of the pain. He always seems to hurt himself playing with his son.

My mom just left on Tuesday with her new puppy. I am so glad I don't have a puppy! I don't think I could handle taking care of a puppy, Lucian and a new baby. Just too crazy. If we ever get the house we want out in the country that is when I will think about getting a dog but not until. LOL I just think they are much like children, and I always said I would have children before I ever owned a dog. I have been thinking I will have all my children before I ever get a dog.

Welcome to our family blog.

Well we have decide that it is time to start a family blog. This way you can all check in on us and see how we are doing and what we are up too. We can post pictures and you can see them and download them if you would like. That way we will keep in better touch with each other or at least you will be better able to see what is happening in the lives of us.

Enjoy!

The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck
