We had a great weekend. I've gotten into a habit of dropping Shelby off at dance on Fridays and then taking Syd to McD's to eat and play while we wait. This week Sean met me there and stayed with Syd while I went out to eat with some girl friends. We had a great time and it was fun to eat and talk without kids. We all have kids, so it's a big deal for us to have a "girls night out." Saturday Syd went to dance class and then I started attacking some things on my to do list. We've rearranged the bedroom for the bassenett and washed baby blankets and sheets. Now at least he's got a place to sleep. :)
Sunday was a fun day at my parents house for mom's b-day. We stayed out there late and everyone was tired by the time we got home. Yesterday was a day off too and I was planning on getting some more things done - until the screaming started. Sydney's stomach started cramping and she was screaming at the top of her lungs. (Don't blame her a bit.) I got her to the bathroom in time for her to explode out the back end. I got her cleaned up and in a pull up and thought everything was calm. I took something down stairs and she started screaming again. I didn't make it up the stairs in time, but she had a pull up on and that helped. Cleaned up again, I went downstairs to make her a drink with probotics in it. She was fine and started drinking like a champ. I didn't mix it with much water hoping to get most of it in her quickly. (According to Shelby it tastes nasty.) Almost done with the drink, gave me a funny look and proceeded to throw up all over me. :) The good thing was that she took a 3 hour nap yesterday. She kept down gatorade and crackers and even toast last night. This morning she begged for water, so I gave her some bottled water and teddy bear crackers. It all came up. Today so far so good, but it's slow going. She's really hungry, but I won't give her much at a time. Hopefully she's on the mend and will get over this soon. I hate to have my girl sick.
As for my doctor's appointment yesterday all went well. I'm on the every week schedule now. The dr. did some general measurements and says that Sebastian is about 6lbs 12 oz right now. Amazing what ultrasound machines can do these days. That was looking at his head circumfrence, belly and femur. I'm not sure how they come up with it, but it will be interesting to see how big he actually is. Right now the guess is that he'll be in the upper 8lbs to low 9lbs range at delivery. We'll see. Next week I'll find out what time my c-section is scheduled for. I hope it's not the 7am slot. That has me at the hospital at 5:45am. Not that I won't have most of the day to sleep after that, but I'd like to see Shelby off to school.
