kids + me + obgyn office = oy.

In all of my infinite wisdom (as well as my obgyn office) I am going to take at 3:30 pm appointment today to have the wonderful b.c. put in.

Now I know that sounds a bit crazy, but I have been waiting on this for over TWO months now and it must be put in during a cycle, and the lovely person that said that they were going to contact me about it never did. So I called yesterday and got a little bit irritated and FINALLY got in for today….

Blah, Blah, Blah…

SO off I go to pick Riley up from school early, cause the office is in Katy and Riley’s school lets out at 3:15 AND the appointment is at 3:30.

(you see the issue here? ok.)

Let’s hope I get through taking BOTH of my sons with me to the obgyn without issue, tantrums or questions like “mommy why is your leg on that thing??”

Wish me luck.

10 months already?

Yesterday marked 10 months for our little man, Julian!!!

He not even close to being little anymore!

We went to the doctor on 7/25/08 and he was measured at an astonishing 29 inches! Two weeks before then, Lyall and I were wondering how long he really was so we put him up against the good ole’ tape measure and he was at 27 inches! I mean really at the rate this kid is growing he’ll be taller than me by the time he’s 8! (Not that it’s saying much for me, I’m 5′1.) But it’s really freaking me out. The whole time on our road trip in Colorado people at restaurants kept asking me if we needed a kids menu. Though his weight is at about 18.5 lbs which is a bit small for his length and age we are convinced that he’s going to be just like Lyall. Tall & skinny.

Poor kid. Ever tried looking for a pair of 28/34’s at The Gap? Apparently that is the size the Lyall was at when he entered the Air Force.

Anyway, our super awesome doctor said that he is doing EXTREMELY well. Motor skills are all lined up and has stated that he should be getting around to doing things on his own a bit earlier because he follows Riley around everywhere. Which is somewhat of a slight threat to me, because he’s already a handful and he can’t even walk yet!!!

I will post more about the progress of Julian & the quest for walking in the next few entires. It should be fun!
