Ok these are all i can upload right now. this is janae at almost 19 months. On your right is janae with her cousin Devyn. They are six months apart!

it's been far too long!

Well i have so much to say. It;s wierd how i always forget to post news on here so this should be a good one.

Well let's start with Janae, last week while john was gone in Atlanta for a work trip janae started complaining everytime seh peed, i dismissed it seeings she says ouie for everything these days and because she had a diaper rash i linked it to that. But by thursday i started thinkin gmay be it was more, she was waking up so many times at night crying in pain and flopping around like a fish and shaking when she peed. So finally on friday when john came home i took her in and then we had the fun of trying ot get a urine sample from her. Thoes of you who have never had to do that to a littel one they have these bags that you tape to their vagina which catches the pee. they are kind of tricky cause if you dont' get it just right the pee leakes out and you start all over. it took us three tries to get enough pee. This was also teh friday before steven's wedding so it was crazy!! Anyways so the test came back yes that she ahd a bladder infection and so we startedher on ammoxicillian right away. on wednesday seh was still saying ouie occasionally about her bum and i wasn't sure if it was just because she was repeating the doctors visits as she is into rememebring things and repeating them over and over. But i wasn't sure waht the lab results were cause we had to wait three days for them and so i brought her back to the doctor on wed and on thursday my doctor phoned to tell me she had a bladder infection but was on the wrong medicine....WHAT!! she was done the medicine and now he was telling me to put her on this other kind caues it didn't fix it but the only reason he thinks it isn not working is because seh is still complianing, but with a 19 month old that isn't a good enough reason to do it. so i demanded another urine test and so we finally got some urine this morning and we will find out. we did start her on the new meds yesterday, she has terrible diarreah and the doctor said that the risk of not giving it to her til we found out could mean a kidney infection and so ya. so we'll see. she seem sto be fine now so hopefully it's gone.

So ya Friday the 19 was decorating day for steven and jackies' wedding. I didn't do too mcuh as my stomach was killing, it felt like it was going to burst and fall off. So i took it easy. Saturday the day of the wedding john was susppose to go my parents to get ready as he was a grooms men but that morning i discovered some blood in my underwear adn went to the hospital because i also had burning and cramping. I was there til lunch. they examined me and confirmed it was blood and that iw as contracting and told me to be on a bed rest for a couple of days. i told them it was my brothers wedding so they told me i could go but to sit hte whole time.. haha i was one of the MC"S!! So anyways john just made it in time for pictures by the time i got home. my stomach was killing with contractions but i needed to get ready. the whole day was horrible for me, didn't really get to enjoy itcasue all i wanted to do was lie down as i felt like passing out! The wedding went great, Jackie looked gorgeous and janae and devyn went down the aisle throwing flowers... surprise to everyone!! IT as really cute and i can't wait to see pics!! Steevn and Jackie are returning home today from a week in Bahama's at the Atlantis resort and thoese of you who don't know what that si you have to look i tup!!

Well here i am at 28 weeks! Larger then ever and more uncomfortable then ever. My skin is so tight around my belly adn back that i am gettign a lot of pain in the middle of my back! I am still nautious and can barf on and off. i really am not liking being pregnant. I want at least one more after this but i have to think about the pregancy part and take into consideration how much i don't like being pregnant!! Oh well there is such a blessing at the end that it will eb worth it...right? haha

Well we moved janae into a big girl bed. Bought her a twin mattress for the floor. Last ngiht she slept amazing and it is working really well. Praise the Lord. She is so excited about her big bed she loves playing in her room now! We will eventually put the bed frame up but thought we would get her used to the matress first. She has only fallen out twice. She is such a turkey. I went ot house of jamest he other day and bought two books on how to raise a strong willed child! we'll see if they help!! I read one sentence in one of the books that i tell my self all day and is so encouraging, it is from a james dobson book, it says "some children are just harder to raise then others!!" What an encouragement these words have been seeings it has been such a rough week i have had a couple of melt downs, feeling like a horrible parent and also wife as the stress of raising a child sure effects your marriage. Who woul d have thought life could be such a roller coaster. You think in hight school life is so hard and can't wait to get out and now i look back going man thoes essays and tests were way simpler then this life of tehre is no answer to anything!!!! nothing is blacka nd white when raising a child and i think that is why i fidn it challenging. I jsut want to find a book on the shelf that says." how to raise janae!!" that would be so handy!!

WE have her 18 motnh shots today and she did so awesome and was such a big girl. We also met with a speech therapist and janae does not say the sound 'N' .they arn't to concerned abotu it but we have a file going now to get it chekced also with her walkign as she isn't as stable as other children, niether of these things were huge concerns with the lady but it is better to be referred now as there is a long wait period.
I cant believe janae has been playing in her playpen for half an horu now!!

Well i should go and attempt to make dinner. think it's fried left over potatoesa nd farmer sausage. i also have bun dough rising in the oven for cinnamon buns!

talk to you later
