Caitlyn is 14months now and is a baby on the move. She has 4 teeth and some molars starting to poke through. She loves to feed herself and drink out of her sippy. Although she is not walking yet she can crawl very fast and walk around while holding onto something. Her newest trick is crawling up the stairs, so we have had to change up the gates in our place to make sure she isn't doing that without adult supervision. She loves to imitate and hear herself babble as loud as she can. She is a great toddler. Still take 2 naps a day for me and is generally a very happy smiley girl.
well as you saw from the last post Ethan turned 4. He is going through his terrible fours right now with some listening issues and attitude issues. However, he does have his sweet days where he wants to sit with mommy and do whatever I am doing. He is looking forward to going to preschool next year at the Sports Academy here in Logan. His newest trick are riding a real big boy bike with training wheels, counting to 5 by himself and drawing monsters (happy monsters). It amazes me how smart he is getting and he is not even in school yet. Some of his favorite things to do right now are play outside, ride his bike to pick up Jo from school and jump into all the pillows off our couch.
Our little miss mommy Jocelyn is almost done with her first full year of school as a Kindergartner. She has learned so much this year. She can read, write all the letters of the alphabet lower and upper case, count to 100, and do some very simple addition and subtraction. She is very excited to go to first grade because she misses going to school all day and not just 1/2 day. She recently went on her first field trip to the Willow Park zoo in Logan and loved riding the bus more than seeing the animals. She is a very strong willed independent girl. She likes to do things herself and has even started helping mom make lunches, by making her and Ethan sandwiches. Some of her favorite things to do right now are play with her friends at school, draw and dress up like a rock star.
Preston and Me
Well its official I am in the third trimester, wahoo!! Currently Preston is chugging along like a champion. Everything seems to measure great and his heart rate is consistently in the 150's. I on the other hand and preparing for the "how early will he come" phase. My Dr. up here is awesome and is staying on top of things. I received my first set of steroid shot to help Preston's lungs develop at 27 weeks and will do another round at 32 weeks. I am still on the 17-P (progesterone) shots to help keep my uterus quiet and will be on those until the end of June. I have been having the occasional contraction but nothing frequent or majorly worrisome. I start seeing my Dr. weekly in June and we will most likely start the fFN tests at the same time (more info on those here http://www.ffntest.com/info/fetal_test.html ). Each week he stays cooking is a major milestone.. My dr. and I are anticipating delivery in July, my goal is at least 36 weeks (July 13th) but considering my history anything beyond 34 weeks is a great success. I will keep ya posted as time goes on.
Dave is currently working his rear off in San Antonio Texas for the summer with Pinnacle. He is doing a great job out there and so are his guys. I talk with him every morning and night. We were hoping he would be able to fly home every month but airplane ticket prices are sooo expensive so he will be back in July, hopefully in time to celebrate both Jocelyn's and Preston's Birthdays. Speaking of Birthday's he is turning the big 30 on Saturday... which I think is just crazy because he doesn't seem that old at all. He loves his job and loves his family and other than being able to spend more time at home I think he is one pretty happy guy.
