This weekend was a rather fun one!

Saturday I had a baby shower that Cody's Mom put on for me. It wasn't really a "shower" but more of a family get together in which we celebrated the fact that Cody and I are expecting another little baby. Guys and girls were there, and it was a really fun day. We didn't play any baby shower games or any of that...we just had a great lunch, opened presents and hung out! It was great! It started at 3, and we didn't get home until 8:30 or so! It was nice for Cody to be able to hang out with his family since he doesn't get many days off. It was the PERFECT weather outside. Sunny, but sooo nice in the shade and a nice cool breeze! My kind of day! Axton loved playing in the yard and throwing the frisbee. He did get a little boo boo on his nose and forehead, but that is just what comes with being a kid! A curious one!

Sunday we had a family get together out at my dads house. We hardly ever get together out there, and when we do its always a grand time. Great big yard for Axton to run around in and boy does he take advantage of it! He loves playing with the dogs, and he especially hit jackpot when he found a giant wind chime attached to a tree. These two days of family get togethers didn't help my diet much, but I did okay. Nothing too extreme :/

Today I brought Axton to the waterpark for the first time this summer. For one, why is it so dang expensive? Why would 1-3 year olds be 3 dollars to get in? They can't even go past the shallow part..therefore are not taking up any room on the water slides etc, and don't even require the attention of the lifeguards because their guardians are obviously right next to them at all times making sure they are okay. What a jip I say. It was 8 bucks for the two of us to get in. Since Axton is still rather little...its not like he can spend ALL day at the water park to make the 8 bucks sorta worth it. We were there for 2 hours and that was pushing it. He was ready for a nap, there were a million people there, and I was blazin hot. I would have loved to just lay in the pool and enjoy the cool water but nope....had to chase Axton around since he loves going in every which direction in and out of the water sitting then standing then over by the fountains then in mommy's lap. Exhausting! It wouldn't be so bad if going from sitting to standing/standing to sitting wasn't so difficult. I also have had the worst and I mean WORST heartburn for the last 24 hours that will NOT go away no matter what! I slept soooo horrible last night because my heartburn was making me miserable as well as the fact that I had a pounding headache that wouldn't subside. Heartburn is manageable for me, I just pop some tums and it goes away right away. But not the last day and a half no siree! It wants to just keep creepin up and burn every shred of esophagus possible for as long as possible.

Tomorrow Cody and I get to see our little Zaidyn again! We have an ultrasound at 3:30 and I can't wait to see her! They want to A) Check for the last time the position of the placenta. B) Check on her size since babies exposed to high blood sugar levels put on weight faster. I quite frankly don't care what the reasoning, I'm just glad I get to see her again! I'm ready to see her in real life, not just on a screen! But since she is the one who determines when she will make her entrance into the world, the screen will have to do for now! Then on Wednesday I have a follow up doctors appointment to discuss the ultrasound and also start my weekly visits. My doctor is going to be on vacation my 36th week, so this week is kind of taking place of my 36th week. Wait that doesn't make sense. I'll be 35 weeks on Friday, but I think he's going to be on vacation next week? Who the heck knows what the heck is going on.

Are you only taking tums for heartburn? I had to be on a prescription of zantac for both kids. Maybe you should ask your doc about that if your not on anything!
