Appts, Appts and more Appts

Last week I found out that I scored low on a test (I think it was PAPPA) - with Aidan it was 40 and this time around it was 20. That coupled with what happened with Aidan and being almost 30 meant the following:

• Weekly injections of progesterone in my hip until week 36
• Take baby aspirin daily 
• Bi-weekly cervix and infection checks
• Monthly baby specialist visits 

The worry is that I will early delivery and that the baby would have a low birth weight. The aspirin is to help thin my blood so that it can better to get to baby and the progesterone is to help prevent preterm labor.

So basically, I'll be a watched pot.

frogs and snails and puppy-dogs' tails

that's what little boys are made of...

another boy!

First Day of Soccer!

 

Today was Aidan's first day of soccer! He had so much fun and really liked playing with everyone. Today we learned that we should not use our hands. 

Happy St Patty's Day!

What's better than going to the parade? Being in the parade! Thanks to Steve's company, we got to ride in the parade this year. We all had tons of fun and the mustaches (I had one for Steve too - though as usual, he took a little while to warm up to the idea) were a huge hit.

This year we made a leprechaun trap and put Lucky Charms in the pot of gold to entice him... We didn't catch him this year, but have high hopes for next year. 

 

We had a delicious traditional St Patty's dinner with corned beef, cabbage and soda bread. I love soda bread - it is delicious. I also made rainbow jello which turned out surprising well (very time consuming though).
