  Yes , ok, so it's been about a week and a half now since I've posted anything. But before you jump down my back for being so negligent....heres what been going on...
  
  
  
  
• First of all....we have been having the most extream problems with ants! They have invaded our home, and I do mean invade. First it was a small trail in the kitchen. A problem we stupidly thought could be remedied by any traps...HA! then they attacked the front porch. so we called the land lord and he brought out some spray stuff. Ok problem solved. The next evening, while enjoying our nice clean house, tyler walks into the kitchen and says "look daddy ants!" OMGsh!!!!!!!!!!!! they attacked a new area of the kitchen and had migrated in a line (not kidding) 3 inched wide, to the middle of the kitchen

Next big thing was buying a car. But with My thrifty bargain hunter (who's a naval mechanic and there for can save money by doing it himself *can you see my eyes rolling*), Nothing is ever as simple as just buying a car. No, after two weeks of hunting ebay, newspapers, autotrader.com, cars.com, idiotsclickhere.com...He finally found "THE CAR" a 95 toytota 4runner. problem...it's 3 hours away. So we pack some food, put tyler in thew car and head out towards 29 palms california....for those who don't know.......the freakin desert! So first problem , we need gas, and nobody is letting us over to get it. fianlly we get off the road and find a realitively cheap gas station (becuase he can't just buy gas, he has to search every gas station for a mile and find the cheapest one) drinks, bathroom trip, snack for tyler and we're off again. Tyler falls asleep in like no time. 10 minutes later, i see CHP in our mirror. Are you kidding me?! So 30 mins and one ticket later (don't ask, we'll be able to beat this one lol) we're back on the road. and of course because the chp officer took sooooooo looong tyler is awake and there's no chance of him going back to sleep, so all we hear for the next hour is "look daddy train" but over and over and over and over. Thank Goodness for wind turbines becuase at least it's not a train. we get the sellers home and spend an hour going over the car. buy it and head back out. what do you think happens....TRAFFIC. Not really a surprise becuase we'd seen it backed up abuot 50 miles, and oh ya, did i mention it was a HOLIDAY! So of course we're stuck behinde ever RV in southern CA. But at least Tyler is sleeping this time. Home, bath, bed....life is good again.

Tuesay comes and John has his MRI. Yup, he needs surgery. And even better...as if our life isn't cram packed enough...he'll probobly have it around the same time I have the baby, so um ya. don't know what im going to do with a recovering daddy, myself recovering, a toddler and a newborn. Anybody wanna help!?

Dr appt Wednesday says that Baby is doing great. She made the DR laugh pretty good as she kept punching the heart doppler. I've been warned that I have a rebellious baby...But I have to feel her squirming and kicking everyday, so I know all to well about my daughter's attitude. 6 weeks or less to go? alright!!!!!!!!!!

This past weekend has been spent cleaning, laundry, potty training, and getting John ready to take his first class exam this week. I have been sooooo tired latley. It must be the calm before the storm. A few Practice contractions here and there that have caught me off gaurd a bit. And horray!!!!!!!! it just started raining! I love rain...better go make syre my windows are up!
