Summer is off to a good start!

We are off and running with summer!

Kieran turned 2 on May 11th and had family over to celebrate with an amazing choo choo cake made by Mama Lou. Kieran is really into Choo Choos lately.

The weekend after Kieran's party we went to celebrate Isaiah's 5th birthday with a Piratey party! Our little Peanut doesn't really get called Peanut any more :(

The weekend after Isaiah's party Scott, Pappy Jim, Mama Lou, and I were going to take Marra, Elijah, Isaiah, Jo Jo, and Kieran to a Pirates baseball game. A stomach bug knocked out Mama Lou and Kieran from going. And it was just too hot for me. So Pappy and Scott ended up taking the three older kids. They got to ride on the T and then ride the Gateway clipper across the rivers. Before the game they cooled off in water sculptor along the river walk outside of the ball park.

We have also been riding bikes and swimming up a storm!

We got Marra's report card in the mail this week. She did amazing! All A's with nothing lower than a 97% in all subjects. She will not find out who her 2nd grade teacher is until the end of summer but she already knows who she wants, so she's keeping her fingers crossed.

We have a week left before the kid's get their tonsils out, June 26th. To add to it, Marra will be getting an esophageal scope and biopsies of her esophagus, intestines, and stomach done while she is under anesthetic. Both kids will be home bound for at least a week if not two depending on how they are healing.

Monday the 23rd I go to the Dr. to set the date for the c-section. We will keep you posted. When I was at 33 weeks we had an ultra sound done, they said the baby was 5 lbs and 11 oz at that point, most average unborn babies don't hit the 5 lb mark until around 35 weeks. I am miserable, I spend most of my time in bed or on the couch because I am having such issues with my kidneys and muscle and ligament strains, but it will all be worth it once I get to hold our new baby!

Here are some pictures of the last month, I hope you enjoy!
