2 yr stats and baby prepping.

Well its getting that time the babie will be here next Friday! I scheduled my C-section for the 5th of October the 6th is my due date but the Dr doesn't schedule c-sections on Saturdays but its ok I think hes baked long enough. I am ready to meet this little guy I still cant believe how fast this time flew I feel like I was hardly pregnancy at all. I am ready to be done though hes getting big in there and I am uncomfortable now. Still no contractions just braxtons Im not dilated at all and I am still mobile "I have to be with the twins, they keep me moving!" I had my last Drs appointment yesterday he wont be needing to see me tell I go in next week since I have been doing so good. They did my ultrasound and I got to see the little guy again Finally I was wondering how hes doing in there he checked him out and he looks good hes thinking he is about 7 lbs now but its never accurate though. Im sure he will be about that at birthday. He also tryed to re check the sex but this time unlike the first time he was being shy and crossing his legs but Im sure hes still a boy he sure showed it off the first time. I have everything ready to go for him its amazing I really didn't have to get him much at all just the new born stuff bottles Binky's bath stuff bassinet I have everything else from the boys including all the cloths that either they wore once or not at all. I have double cloths and some didn't even get worn.

Im getting a little nervous for the boys I don't want them to feel left out or feel like they are losing mommy I know it will be hard for them at first to have a new baby around and see me giving him attention so I will need to give them extra love. We had there 2 year appointment this week and they got there shots done its been a while since they have had to get any I think 15 months was there last. This time around they did cry but it was not as dramatic. They got 4 of them including there flu shot so we did touchier them a little I felt bad but they need it for the winter.

Noah:
25.35 lbs  16%
34.2 Inch  40%
He is finally getting up there he was off the charts for so long and hardly making it on but hes getting on there now.

Elijah:
24.69 lbs 10%
32.48 inch 9%
Weird he is smaller then Noah but looks bigger he is so solid and I don't know how he weighs less?

There progress with speech is a little behind. They are not to a 20 word minimum like the Dr wants she said it is good they have shown progress over the last couple months they have been repeating more and saying things more on there own. So she wants us to watch them over the next 2 months and if they are not really showing improvement then we should check out early learning program for them. I don't think they need it I think they are capable of doing it they are just taking there time but I will do it if the Dr thinks they need it.
We discussed there behavior with her as well we are having a hard time with them listening and we have a big throwing problem. All they do all day long is throw things weather its food toys anything they just want to throw its not for fun its more for attention and when they are upset. They throw things at each other if the other one makes them mad and its a big problem because they like to throw heavy toys and we have had some bobo's over it. The Dr thinks we should pick up a book called 123 magic. I am looking into it because I have had it with the throwing! They are great kids but they are seriously testing us right now. She was laughing because Elijah was acting crazy in the room while she was talking to us she looked at us and said "man he has been testing you since you walked in here" He was non stop opening doors drawers playing with anything that he couldn't and had us running after him constantly. Noah is a little better at paying attention to something then Elijah he had his feel of trying to get in trouble then gave up and played with his cars quietly on the floor.
They also have been having a problem with wanting to keep there diapers on that is a whole other issue that is driving me nuts! So we tried onsies and it worked for a while then they figured out how to take them off so we were back to putting there diapers on repeatedly. I thought maybe they were wanting to potty train I looked into it but they are no were near it yet they. So the Dr suggested duck taping there diapers on "yes you heard me lol" I actually thought of that too but thought that's a little drastic. She said lots of parents have tried it and it works. She also mentioned feetie pjs with the zipper and putting it on backwards so they cant un zip it. I did try it with them and it worked but it was still a little warm for them but now that its getting colder I will go with that one. I just wish they would stop it on there own but they are not and Im sick of cleaning up there messes on the floor!
Yes we are going through alot with the boys lately and its a little over whelming but hearing were not the only ones makes me feel better, well untell she told me there behaviour will get 10 times worse when the baby comes If we don't see me for a while I might be hiding at home pulling my hair out lol

36 Weeks

Well I'm 36 weeks and counting! I am so happy to make it this far you never no when your baby will just decide to come so Iam happy to have made it this far along. My sister in-law is also having a babie and she is due in November they recently found out she is dilated already to a 3 and is 100% efface she is 30 weeks. They think she will be having him in about a week or so, so she will be having him before me. That is why Iam so grateful I have made it this far that is a very scary thing and I don't want a NICU baby! I have scheduled my c-section for October 5th and 9:30 Am "if I make it to then" I want the option of having a natural birth so my Dr went over everything with me of what can work and what wont. He said if I make it to my due date and I have not dilated or anything he will not induce me that is what makes you tear after a c-section. He did say however if I were to go into labor today and I got to the hospital and I was pretty far along and labor would not take too long I should try it the natural way. So we will have to see what happens. I think I will make it to my due date though but you never no. I cant wait for this little guy to join our family. I have been trying to tell the boy there is a baby coming and hes in Mommy's tummy they will just point to my belly and say babie but they have no idea what I'm talking about lol. It will be really interesting to see there reaction. I know they will be jealous for sure but I am hoping it will fade after a couple weeks.
