So there have been a few good things about this week so far. I bought Walker's Christmas outfit which i am very excited about! He will be so cute i can hardly stand it. I will post pictures later...can't ruin the surprise for now though! We also found a super cute pair of Christmas jammies for Walker yesterday when we went to the outlets in Gaffney with our friends Emily and Cort. We drove up yesterday morning and came back by lunchtime. Then we went to playgroup with Abby, Avery, and Caleb. Hopefully one of their mommies can send me some pics that they took yesterday and i can post one of those as well. The babies have gotten so funny calling each others' names out. They all 4 associate one of their names with the group. So if i say, "let's go see Abby," then Walker will say "Abbee, Aveeey, Cadeb" even if we'd just see Abby. It's really cute...and what's especially funny is that all of them do it! Anyways, Walker totally got screwed up on his nap schedule yesterday, but seems to be making up for it today...it's 3:45 now and he's been asleep since 1!I took Walker to Mother's Morning Out today. He goes 1x week and really loves it. WHen we first started going he'd cry when i left, now he reaches for his teachers and gives them kisses immediately. I'm glad he likes it so much...it'd be hard to leave him Screaming every week....but i guess some people do it.
While Walker was at MMO I went to the dentist to get this thingy to keep me from grinding my teeth at night, and then i had to go to the OB for a check-up from last weeks D&C. Everything checked out alright so i was glad about that. They apparently test the tissue they remove to make sure that there weren't random things in my body that could've caused the loss of the baby like cancer and other stuff i didn't know of. Anyways, everything was ok, so that made me glad to know. It was weird to be in the office though today...just strange feeling since last time we were there we found out about the baby. Let me just say while i'm on the topic, that my OB is AMAZING! Dr. Keller at Piedmont OBGYN. She is so compassionate and wonderful. She has made this experience as painless from the medical end of things as it could possibly be. Her encouragement and empathy have been so valuable to me and i really don't know how to begin to thank her for the kindness and understanding she's shown us throughout this whole process. Definitely some of the Lord's goodness coming out through Dr. Keller...we have been so thankful for her.
So...we've had some firsts the past few days in our family. Walker has now taken a bath with BUBBLES! He is addicted! Check out this crazy kiddo! He LOVED them! Now when we've been going upstairs to take a bath if I ask him what he would like in his bath he yells "BUBBLES" over and over til he's been assured that he may have them. It's really fun. He's figured out that he can clap his hands together and make the bubbles go all over the place, and he thinks it's funny to get a handful of them and i'll blow them in his face. It is really fun! So thank you Mr. Bubble for finally making a sensitive skin bubble bath...everything else has fragrance which makes him break out. I'm so glad that this fun thing can now be a part of our life!
Another fun thing we did this week was jump in leaves! I hadn't even really thought about that this fall because we really don't even have enough leaves in our yard to bother raking. Thankfully our friends Steve and Miranda had TONS! Miranda called and asked if we wanted to come over to play and jump in them and i almost didn't do it because i had some errands i needed to run. It was a beautiful day though, and i thought...what in the world...memories are not made running errands, but they are by jumping in leaves. We had a great time. Walker did thing that they were "itchy" but he did pretty well. Took a bit for him to realize that he could throw them, kick them, and fall down in them though. Here are a few photos from that experience.
Alright, this is actually being finished on Friday even though i started it yesterday. I'll have new pics to post from today though...but that will have to be on it's own posting!
