Much of Nothing

I have been looking at my blog thinking i should write something, but then nothing comes to mind. Well, it is a proven fact that with each pregnancy you loose brain cells, so i will once again blame something on the baby!!!! Devin is still a maniac about math and numbers and he is also in t he beggining phases of learning to read. I had no plans to teach this child a thing until he was 6, but low and behold he wants to learn. Ashlyn is moving right along with her reading and math, i can look back a year or so and see how much she has progressed. and all we really do is have her read a little bit every day, well not every day but that is the goal, and she is really getting it. Too many words on one page freak her out a little so she is not ready for chapter books or anything to long. She is comfortable with her begginers bible and the books she knows she can read. We started reading The Secrets of Droon series, my husband picked it out for them at the library, they both love it. Ashlyn could sit and have me read to her for hours, she really gets into it. Devin can stand about three chapters of the above series and he enjoys it, but other than that he like short picture books. But he will sit in his room and "read" books for about 30 minutes, which is nice. This is new for him, he couldnt do it in the recent past.

I have been itching to get babies stuff ready. So i soaked those used clothes i got with the formula stains on them in oxyclean and almost all the stains came out. I am so excited cause the sleepers are all super cute. So after i soaked those i figured i might as well just wash a huge load of her stuff, so almost all her clothes are clean and ready. Then i gravitated tword the carseat cover, bouncy seat, and swing. They are all nice and clean now too. I think that is all i need to wash besides blankets and whatever I get at my shower. The ladies from church are throwing one for me on Feburary 7th and i am encouraged and excited. I cant wait for next week to get my scan and find out when i possibly may have this baby. last night I was telling Antonio of my back pain and he said "she is just ready to come out, and he added I am pretty done with this pregnancy" and i definatly had to agree. It has been a long hard one. Well i guess that is all i have to report for now, toodles.

i like ur background, don't they have the cutest ones :-) it's so amazing what kids will just pick up on there own. Thor has been learning his colors, its so cute. he just picks something up & says blue, yellow, sometimes he's right but mostly still learning. it's just so great watching them develop
