Busy Week

It's been a really busy week. I've been gone everyday except today. I haven't done this much in months.
Monday, we went out for a special birthday breakfast for Dan with some friends from church, then it was a little shopping.
Tuesday, Logan went back to school for the summer. He's in a new class but fortunately one of his friends, Malaki, was moved up too. So he at least has one familiar face in the class. Tuesday afternoon we had an ultrasound, more on that later.
Wednesday, it was a trip to the doctor for me. Everything went well. I still need to be on my meds for nausea.
Thursday, School again and then some errands.
Friday, finally a day at home to rest!

Tuesday we had the ultrasound. We decided that we wanted to know what we were having. We were surprised with Logan so we thought it would be nice to know. So we found out, and the technician that did the ultrasound said she's really confident to say it's a girl. People have asked if we're registering anywhere. We aren't going to register for anything. We don't need anything, nor do we really have to space to store anything new. Logan's old clothes/toys/bedding are all neutral so we're not worried about that, and there's so much of it. Now that we know we need to start fixing up the baby's room. Dan and I still have boxes in there that haven't been unpacked when we move, two years ago. The crib and dresser need to be put together. So that's what we'll be doing in the next couple of weeks.

We finally told Logan about the baby. He's very excited to be a big brother. He's said he'll share his old toys with the baby and that he'll help out with the baby. He did ask how the baby will get out. Dan's answer was "It's just going to pop out" Logan didn't really seem satisfied with that answer and I'm sure it would have led to more questions. So I said "Mommy will have to go to the hospital and a special doctor will take the baby out" He was much happier with that answer.

So that's how our week has been. Here's one of the ultrasound pictures that we were given.

This is probably one of the best ones we got. It's the profile one, baby's head is on the left. The technician had trouble getting good pictures because the baby kept flipping.

Temps still in high 90's here. The free lunch program the city does for kids started this week, today will be the first day we'll get to go. Hopefully it won't be too hot at 11:30 for lunch in the park.

Toy Story and Baseball

Summer has defiantly hit NM. We've had record high heat this week, yesterday was 100 degrees and today it's going to be just as hot. Logan had a break from school last week and will begin their summer program this week. He'll still attend Tuesday's and Thursday's in the morning. As for me, I'm starting to feel a little better. Lot's of Dr Appointments this week.

Last weekend we went to Texas Roadhouse for an early birthday dinner for Dan.
Logan loves to eat all the lemons in every ones tea and water.


Every Saturday in June the Disney Store is offering free Toy Story activities for kids. Yesterday it was arts and crafts, next week I think it's Toy Story Bingo.


Logan got to put together Toy Story 3 figurines (made out of cardboard) to play with at home.
Then that night we went to an Isotopes game for Dan's birthday. They had fireworks after the game, Logan fell asleep in the middle of the fireworks, but had fun the rest of the game. Thank goodness we had seats in the shade, it did help with the heat a little. But temps were still in the 90's when we left at 10:30 PM!



Logan's favorite part of the game is the chili race that they do between innings. It's a race between a red chili, green chili, a jar of salsa and a taco. Logan loves this!





Salsa wins!
No sign of this heat wave ending anytime soon. With temps in the 100's we'll probably play inside alot, maybe outside in the early morning, when it's not so bad.
