New Season of TV

As I was watching Desperate Housewives last night I noticed quite a few things had changed since they decided to jump ahead five years. I am okay with some of the changes but one change that I noticed was that the Scavos had 2 less children. So what happened to Penny and the other boy, whose name has left my mind? Did they go off to boarding school, did they die what happened? Or did their mother dump them off at the hospital under the new Nebraska safe haven law? I mean in real life you don't just to get rid of two kids because they no longer fit the storyline you are trying to portray. I guess we may never know exactly what happened in those five years in between last season and this season.

18 month Checkup

We went to see the doctor today for Miss Brenna's 18 month check up and Mommy's 22week check up for. Miss Brenna thought everything was fine until the nurse called us back and she realized that this might not be fun. She gave the nurse one look and yelled NO! She was then fine until the nurse tried to weigh her and wanted to check Mommy's blood pressure. It was quite an ordeal, luckily no shots had to be given today. Brenna now weighs 22 lbs 13 oz and is 32 inches tall. She is growing up so fast.
Everything with Mommy and the new baby is good except for this little thing called vertigo that Mommy is dealing with. It really is an inconvenience to feel dizzy when you bend over, roll over in the night or simply move too fast. I'm not even sure if some days that it is safest to drive. Mommy goes to the ENT on Monday to see if they can help her out cuz this is getting to be ridiculous.

Brenna and her Laundry Basket

As of a few days ago the newest and best toy in Brenna's life is a laundry basket that her toys are kept in. She will fill the basket completely with toys and then dive in. She also likes to turn it over and stand, sit or climb on the basket. Sometimes she even stands on it and gives a sermon to her Mommy and Daddy, it is quite a hoot, cuz for the most part we have no idea what she might be telling us about.

The Joy of Motherhood

Brenna and I have now been home together for over a month and I still believe this is the hardest job I will ever have. We are trying to get out and do more fun things but the last few weeks have kept us cooped up in the house. Brenna has learned so many new things in the past few months, especially new words. Her newest words are shoes and Yeah. She can also show you where her belly button is and often says belly button. She has also begun running and walking on her tip toes, I am not sure what the tip toe walking is about, but it is awfully cute. She still doesn't say Mommy very often, but I know it will come soon.

On Thursday, Sept. 11 we had our ultrasound done. The baby looks great and seems to be growing at the desired rate. I was really hoping that my due date would be changed to a few weeks sooner but it is still January 27, 2009. I can not wait to meet this new little bundle of joy. And for all you avid readers out there we do know the sex of the baby, but you will have to wait until its arrival, unless Brenna starts talking big.
