Didriksen Family
Good Day
Well I feel pretty good about today. We went to the library and Kenna found a Strawberry Shortcake dvd that she dosent have so she was all excited about that. Its not Dora anymore for those of you who didnt know. But I would rather have her watching a cartoon that teaches manners and being nice than a cartoon that teaches how to read a map and cross a bridge. lol. maybe thats just me. But i also found a sesame street dvd starring Elmo and it teaches how it makes you a big kid to use the toilet and diapers are for little babies. But McKenna has been in the same diaper for about three quarters of the entire day!!! She hasnt even said the word potty for about two weeks so i am estatic. i am pushing for only having to buy one size of diapers.
We also went for a walk. Kenna loves to sit in a stroller for a walk. it was just long enough for me. any longer and trevor would have had to carry me. just right. when we got back from our walk Kenna and I put our feet in the hot tub and talked about the smiling moon and she learned that airplanes at night look like stars but they blink red lights. lol. she is so smart. she will just carry on talking and talking but it dosent always make sense. I think she will be a good sister
I guess thats it for tonight. I will be going to bed with a better attitude than i have had in about a month. progress!!
Im falling apart
I went to the doctor and it was confirmed that i have placenta previa. My cervix is completely blocked by my uterus. I am going to be having a lot of ultra sounds so they can keep an eye on it. I hope it fixes itself. I am 24 weeks pregnant today and they say if it has not corrected itself by the 32nd week its not going anywhere so I have 8 weeks to get it in the right spot. LOL. if only it was that easy. He also said My blood count came back low so now I have to take iron supplements for anemia.
Trevor is irritating. We had decided on Zoey Claire but today he threw out the name Zoey Belle. Which is also WAY cute so as if there werent enough already I have a dilemma. But Zoey Belle does have a cute ring to it so let me know what you think. It would help.
Any Idea's for me?
I have decided that I have a sad sad life and I NEED a hobby. I have wanted one for a long time, but as of now and how pathetic my life is..... it is now an official need. I have idea's but with each one there is a dilemma. I enjoy digital scrapbooking but, I dont have a camera and downloading all the stuff for it makes my computer crash. I like to feel crafty and artsy but I am just not crafty. and everything else just requires money. Interior design, food/cooking, gardening requires a yard and a green thumb. I may just be looking at all of this from the wrong point of view but I am still bored.
So after my little vent, If anybody has any ideas throw it my way and I will look into it. Even if it is something you think I might not like, amuse me. I'm desperate and I will appreciate anything.
Not much
Well for those of you who keep up on your blogism know that kelli had a very uneventful visit to the doctor today so i am of no use this week (so it seems, until we get back to mesquite. isnt that how that works?). and also my guess for her due date was wrong. Trevor has had A LOT more Halo time than he needs. good thing we go home in the morning.
I have my doctor appointment tomorrow at 1:30 and get to find out more about this placenta thing. I was having pretty bad pains this morning for a few hours so i hope everything is o-k.
McKenna is having a lot of fun with Lacey. maybe too much. she is like different kid around her. She has spent a lot of time in the back yard which makes me feel bad that we cant have one. she even rides her bike in tiny circles cause there is only so much concrete back there. but it keeps her content and she gets to be outside so that is good for her.
Just bored
McKenna loves the park. I have been trying to be the fun mom, and have been taking McKenna and Trevor to the park. (yes I talk as though he is 8 years old but tell me he dosent act like it and we will have an argument.) He needs some exercise, and she loves to go so it is a two birds with one stone deal.
We came for cake and ice cream at kelli's house for caiden's b-day and it has turned into a 3 day stay (possibly longer). We are staying to watch the kids for kelli while she goes to the doctor and if she goes into labor it will save us the trip to mesquite and back. I am the designated babysitter while she is at the hospital.
Catching up
I am 23 weeeks pregnant and went to the the doctor for the first time on thursday. I had my ultrasound on friday and found out we are having another little girl!! Zoey Claire DidriksenI also found out I have a condition called Placenta Previa? i didnt know what it was but he said it is when the placenta is blocking the cervix. I will have to have a c-section if it does not correct itself. My due date is July 2nd. I was told I have to to get another ultrasound this coming wednesday. When the radiologist is in town. RED FLAG!! so I'll keep up on that.
