Still here

Nobody panic. We are all fine. My recent recalcitrant blogging history does not point to any major health or family issues...just general laziness on my part. (thanks to all the friends who called or emailed in concern) When Hayden is napping or playing solo all I want to do is sit down and rest...so I do. (we aren't real big into self denial around here.) Needless to say...blogging, house cleaning, etc. have been downgraded to only doing the absolute necessary. (not that the house cleaning was ever terribly high.)

I went to the doctor this morning and heard Deuce's heartbeat. Took the Dr. a few seconds to find it which were a little tense, but things are apparently progressing fine. We hit 12 weeks this Thursday, which I'm hoping will signal not just the beginning of the 2nd trimester but the ending of nausea, vomiting, poor energy levels, etc. (Oh, poor me; poor me.)

Hayden has been cutting multiple teeth this past week. Two in bottom front have come through and I can feel the starting of several molars both top and bottom, both sides. Poor baby girl. We've been doling out the Humphrey's teething tablets and the occasional application of the Oragel hoping that would help...may have helped her, but I can't tell they've helped me at all.

I'm planning to post several things in the next few days: Birthday trip without the kid, Hayden's weekend with Grammy, Gender predictions, etc. Stay tuned for all that and more! (Unless I collapse onto the sofa and don't move--then I'll get to these in a few weeks.)
