"If you spend the majority of your days in the company of babies, toddlers, tweens or teens, then your happiness will be directly proportional to your ability to laugh often and enjoy the chaos. The child-rearing years, in particular, are meant to be hectic, playful, and fun!"

34 weeks

I had another 2 hour Dr. appt on Monday.  They did another non-stress test and everything looks great.  I had my blood drawn and I can drop down to one shot per week now.  Yeah!  Preston was a trooper, again and was treated to McDonald's for lunch.  Then, yesterday I had another ultrasound.  They are doing these to measure the fluid level, heart rate, growth and to check the placenta.  Everything looked great.  The Dr. estimates the baby weighs 4 1/2-5 pounds and would be in the 46 percentile for weight if born right now.  He thinks I'll probably have 1 or 2 more ultrasounds before delivery.  Laken went with me this time, so I had an excuse to take her to Dairy Queen for a cheesequake blizzard as I have been craving cheesecake.  Cheesecake, Clausen pickles and snickers bars have been my cravings for this babe.  And, I've been in a total got to get my christmas shopping done and everything wrapped frenzy. 

On a side note Preston was up all night throwing up.  He is not running a temperature, so I don't think it's the dreaded flu, but his stomach hurts and he is just feeling punky.
