Halfway (According to Everyone Else)

Well, here I am at 20 weeks now. Here is Easton wishing a "Happy 20 weeks!" to his growing brother:

Fun! The most exciting thing to me so far is that, unlike at this point in Easton's pregnancy, I have had NO unexplained spotting. I began that at 19 weeks last time which was somewhat scary. Later I learned that a lot of women with HELLP have unexplained spotting in their pregnancies. I wonder if it has anything to do with the clotting disorder I have and how it affects the placenta? Anyway...no strange bleeding...let's hope that continues.

Our day today started with Jason driving the new car up to the dealership to get the driver's side seat warmer fixed. First, you don't want to have anything all bus' up on your new car. And second, there is nothing like toasty buns on a cold winter's morn. Our other vehicle is a 2 seater truck (no room for all 3 of us with the carseat) so...Jason brought his 20+ year old bike and rode it the 4 miles (or so) home. Wow.

When Easton woke up I discoverd snot crusted all over his face. Great. Another friggin' cold! I am glad at least Gymsters is ending this month to minimize our germies. Sometimes I wish I was still breastfeeding for all those lovely antibodies for him. Oh well. And to top it all off he ralphed again last night. Blitz is still at zero. This time E gagged on a little too much french fry in his mouth. But here he is cleaning up in the bath:

Fresh as a daisy.

Today Easton stayed in his jammies all day. I did for most of the day till we had to go do the car switch-a-roo. Then I changed into sweats to look more presentable for my walk around the car switching from passenger to driver. Jason picked up a pizza on the way home and we called it a day. But, first, other parts of our day:



And instead of my usual blogging during E's nap today (while Jason gave the yard the final mow of the season) I made this video: click here. My sister in San Antone wanted to see/hear more of Easton talking. And she didn't want a translation. So that's what the video is: a bunch of E's words for her to translate. For the rest of you I will include a translation as the next post. (So don't look below, Auntie Jesh!) And also I went back and re-loaded the pointing out the body parts video from yesterday. I hated that it didn't really showcase his abilities. So, here is the new one. In sync, I believe.

Anyway, that's it for today from our house to yours.
