Our Thanksgiving Day(s) have been great. We went to my parents house Wednesday night and then today we went to Steven's family and ate. Emma had such a busy couple of days (well week, since we also had 2 play dates over the last couple of days as well) that she fell asleep on the way home! That never happens! Connor was such a good boy all week and we get so many compliments on him when we go places. I love it!
Baby news: I'm 7w 3d today. Yesterday I had my first appointment, which consisted of nothing but a talk with the nurse and then I went down to the lab and got my bloodwork done. I did tell them about my yeast/vaginitis/bacteria infection things I STILL have going on, but I heard nothing from the nurse when I got out of the lab. I'm calling and harassing them about it on Monday because I want some answers! I am miserable what with all of this itching. It's all treatable, but I want it found out now since bacteria infections can make you have smaller babies and that is something I certainly don't want. That means they might move my ultrasound up, which I really didn't want, but I'm not sure if I could pull off going for a culture next week and then going back again the following week. But we'll see. :)
Tomorrow my mom, me, and Emma are having a girls day and hanging in town shopping and eating. Mostly because Arkansas (who is #3!!) plays LSU (who is #1!!) tomorrow and I'm way too nervous to watch it. Come on Hogs! We plan on spending the majority of the game in town so that I won't be a nervous wreck the whole time. Don't worry, though. I'm making Steven DVR it, that way if we pull off the upset, I can watch it when I get home, in all of it's glory. Fingers crossed!

6 weeks tomorrow!
It feels like yesterday that we just found out about our 3rd baby, yet it seems it's been 2 weeks! Starting tomorrow I will be half way through the 1st trimester and then I'll be able to breathe a little easier.
I feel pretty good, except for another yeast infection that kind of slowed me down a bit. I'm so apprehensive about taking things when I'm pregnant, so instead of Monistat, I've been using plain yogurt with live active cultures. It's definitely working, it just takes bit longer to kick in effect.
Putting our Christmas tree up tonight! So excited about that since Emma has asked me literally every day since Halloween if it's Christmas yet. :) She's definitely like me when it comes to the excitement of the holidays. We also got a HUGE headstart on the birthday and Christmas shopping and I can't wait to see their faces Xmas morning.
A few shots from my mini photo shoot with the kids last week.
They are beyond gorgeous, right? ;)

It's official!
I'm PREGNANT! Ahhhh! I've taken 4 tests in about 5 days time and all have been positive. I'm also 3 days past my period so that's good.
I am beyond excited, but also a bit nervous since I am so early (5 weeks in 2 days) and anything can happen at this point. I never really breathe easy until I pass 24 weeks and then the baby is viable. I have a slight feeling the new babe is a girl, but it's not strong like it was when pregnant with E and C. Speaking of Emma, she is thrilled that she is going to have another baby sister or brother (she wants a sister) and has promised to help with everything, except changing dirty diapers! Hah!
Here's a pic of the 2nd positive test I got.
Exciting, right?!
Just gearing up for the Thanksgiving season and trying to wait until 7 weeks before we tell the rest of the family. It's hard! I want to blab it on facebook!
