got Lego's ???

Dakota newest love started at Christmas time. I got a great deal on a box of Lego's at the Black Friday sale and he has been in love with them ever since.

Last weekend, we found a great deal at a yard sale...a 73 qt tub of Lego's for $30. Now, to the moms (and dads) out there who know how much Lego's cost...this is the deal of the century!!!!

Lily enjoys playing with the Lego's when she can..when Dakota will let her...They make a great time consuming indoor toy for these blistering hot summer days. I'm beginning to think that we will never see double digit temperatures again...but there HAS to be in an end insight!

4th of July fun

Here are some pictures from our 4th of July fun. We were able to see 2 different fireworks display. One in Gilmer sitting in Jed's grandmother's front yard...and the other in our city.

Though Lily plugged her ears for both shows, she had fun...as we all did.

EnJoy!

25 weeks appt

Myself with all the kiddos :)

I had my 25 week appointment this week. According to the doctor, ALL is good. My blood pressure is the best it's ever been. (I had high BP with Dakota and high BP toward the end with Lily)...my weight is excellent. I've only gained 3 lbs so far for the entire pregnancy.

My legs have been hurting alot, but it's not due to swelling. The doctor thinks it has to do with varicose veins. My mom has them and it's hereditary. So, I'm just taking it easy and resting my legs as often as I can...which is the better than the other alternative--> wearing support hose during this extreme heat.

I am going to see the doctor every 2 weeks now...which I thought came pretty fast. Also, the doctor is going to have me do the 3 hour gestational diabetes test in 2 weeks. She said it's probably pointless to do the 1 hour test since I failed it with Lily. Which is fine. I'd rather just pay for 1 test anyway.

Baby Leia was very active...moving from one side of the tummy to the other side playing hide and seek with the doctor. Heart rate was 154bpm.
