A Beautiful Day!

We finally had some good weather! it was so nice to sit outside w/ the kids today and get some fresh air. I'm horribly uncomfortable, so I sit often and take as few steps as I can. This baby is so low I can hardly walk. I'm carrying very different from Abby and Luke. Anyways, I told Abby I wouldn't be able to push her so the kids came up w/ the idea to swing together, since Luke knows how to pump, they held on to each others chain so they could swing together. :)

Abby being a goofball for the camera!

Luke running w/ Zoie!

I had a an appointment w/ a lactation consultant today. I'm very nervous about breastfeeding again b/c I went through 3 months of terrible pain w/ both Luke and Abby. blisters, mastitis, thrush, you name it, I had it... :( it was really really hard. I was encouraged and happy to find someone w/ new ideas for my problems. I'm hoping this time around won't be so hard!

Rich is home from work today w/ a bad cold. He's been banned to the basement! It's such a terrible time to have germs in the house w/ the baby coming soon. :( Soooo many of our friends have been sick. Tis' the season... but I'm hoping the kids and I can avoid getting sick for as long as we can. I went to Kroger yesterday and stocked up on everything and anything I could find to help us fight this.

all for now....
