I really have been meaning to post, but you know how that goes sometimes!

Last week on the 11th we had our 21 week ultrasound and got to see our little boy again. He was perfect and we loved watching him move around. He was SO cute. He was measuring 2 days ahead and so my dr has now moved my due date to the 23rd of December. Normally he wouldn't move my date, but he said that with a Christmas due date, everyone is going to want to be induced the week before and even if I can get in a couple of days earlier, it will make a difference. So I guess the latest we will be having this cute little boy will be the 16th of Decemeber. I wouldn't know how to act having a baby at 39 weeks-since the longest I have gone is 37 weeks! I am hoping for somewhere around 38 weeks, but who knows? The baby was weighing 14 ounces and had a heart rate of 149. Perfect for 21 weeks :) At one point he looked like he was talking to us. The ultrasound tech did a close up on his face and his jaw was moving like he was talking. Jayson joked and said that he belonged since his mom talks so much-LOL!

We have been busy getting ready for school to start. Hudson starts Kindergarten on Monday and the twins are going to 2 day a week preschool starting on Tuesday. Hudson gets to wear a uniform this year and we have just been buying the last little things we need for that. Can't wait to take his picture in it. I still don't see the twins as old enough for school, but I think they will love it. We are excited for this new adventure. Hudson and the twins will be on opposite schedules since they didn't have enough kids for the AM kindergarten. I was SO bummed about this, but I am sure it will be fine and it is only 2 days a week.

The twins are doing awesome with their potty training and I can't believe how GREAT it is to have them trained. So much easier and I am glad it only took them a day and a half to do it. We are enjoying the freedom from diapers so far. I think only having one in diapers is going to be so nice compared to having 3 in diapers and then 2. It has been a long time since we have just had one baby in diapers. I am really looking forward to the whole 'one' baby thing!

I am finally starting to feel better from my nausea. It has been about a week now where it hasn't been an everyday thing. It is amazing how much better I feel. I am just starting to work on Christmas projects since things will be a little crazy around that time this year. Jayson is loving school and it is SO nice to have him home in the evenings. The kids and I really missed him and it is so nice to have dinner with him every night. We are all doing really well. I hope to be able to post some more as the week goes on. I hope you all have a great week!
