Well, once again not TFT from me. I have a topic, but I'm too lazy to post. Maybe next week??? I thought I'd do an update instead. Last week I posted this. Well, since then we've had a lot of happenings in the potty training world. Annika got a virus, a diarrhea virus. So the floodgates were opened on Friday evening and lasted until Tuesday afternoon. Ughhhh, let me tell you how sick of poop I am! She didn't even know she had pooped her pants until she sat on the potty and saw the poop in her undies. She would freak out every time. This is a kid who has NEVER had runny poop, ever. She has been constipated since about 10 months old, so she's used to knowing she has to go, and then pushing and pushing to get it out. Poor thing. Well, she broke out in a rash yesterday morning so the virus is over! Yeah. So, now she's back on track. No accidents since Tuesday, some minor dribbles of pee here and there, but otherwise, she's doing fantastic. She's not even asking for treats anymore and telling us when she has to go. That was the goal all along!
I have a dr. appointment today. Hopefully all is well and I can be off of the full bedrest. To be honest, I haven't been strict with it anyway. Oh well, I'm still here with a huge baby in the belly, so I must be doing something right. I'm going to post a GIGANTIC belly pic later with an update. Seriously, I am huge. I honestly think that my skin is going to rip. It hurts like it already is!
Our new nanny is working out well. Annika has been testing her limits though. It's been a little rough for her and of course I feel bad for Sara for having to deal with it. Hopefully Annika will continue to adjust. So far no meltdowns today, but it's early!
Tomorrow is Friday. Yay! Brian took the day off since he's been working toooooo much lately. Last week I told him he needed to schedule a day off for himself. This needs to be done in advance as he'd never get the chance if he didn't. So he'll take some time for himself tomorrow and so will I! Tomorrow also marks the 11th year of our relationship! Holy crap, I can't believe it's been that long. We started dating a week after Valentine's Day back in high school, I was a junior and he was a senior. We've been together ever since. We've been married almost 4 years. Bennett is due on our 4th wedding anniversary, April 10th. Seriously, neither of us thought we'd have all 3 of our kids less than 4 years after we got married. It's crazy!
Saturday will hopefully be a day of relaxation. That's if the girls cooperate, and more often than not, they don't! Sunday, I have my sprinkle. I can't wait. It should be a good time and I get to see my good friends all at the same time.
Until next time, peace out!
i'd love to see the baby bump :) it'll be over soon (trying to be encouraging!! i remember very well the itchy painful attachment!)
really hoping the poop is gone (well at least that it's a regular basis poop!)
and here's to a relaxing weekend. happy anniversary.

You were huge 2 weeks ago, I don't know how you're going to make it 4 more weeks!
11 years is a long time but you guys are great together. Glad Bri is taking the day off.
Have fun at the Sprinkle...I wasn't invited!? No big deal, I have a ton going on this weekend and will probably enjoy the R & R on Sunday
