A Few Weekly Updates

I just wanted to write a short blog post with a few random updates for the week.

Lucas is still doing fine. He hasn't thrown up since last Tuesday. He had a burger and fries from a food truck Saturday night for dinner, and Sunday night he had Mcdonalds. I was quite worried both nights but nothing happened. I don't know if maybe he did have a stomach virus, or maybe just a reflux flare up, or even if it just was okay because we are trying to have earlier dinners. His appetite is still not great. He barely ate anything at all yesterday until dinner time. He's still refusing a lot of things. He didn't like the greek yogurt I got. I had a friend (M) so kindly make him some protein balls which he did not like (at least while they were cold, I'm going to try again with them room temperature). Mom tried him on some vegetarian chicken yesterday and he didn't like it. I still have lots of options to try. I have edamame, I want to try some different smoothie variations, I want to try some different protein balls, and he hasn't tried a pediasure again yet. I haven't given up, but I am feeling very grateful that he's not been throwing up, even after having some unhealthy, probably a little greasy food this weekend.

We don't have a lot of plans this week again. Lucas' teacher will be coming, and he has a socialization this week we are going to try to attend (if it works around Mackinley's school schedule). There's not too much going on with Mackinley and school this week. The schedule for her is a bit messed up because they are doing end of year assessments and finishing up their last writing project. There are only 15 days of school left! And really it's going to be less than that because she has to have her computer in the morning of the next to last day of school so for the last 2 days they won't be able to do much if anything at all. Next week our schedule is going to be a bit more busy, but thankfully this week, it's very minimal.

I've got my exercise planned for the week, and already done today's.

Monday: Standing Abs (10 mins) and Walk and Tone (10 mins)
Tuesday: 10000 Steps Walking Workout (1 hour and 6 min video, I'm doing the first 22 mins)
Wednesday: 10000 Steps Walking Workout (1 hour and 6 min video, I'm doing the second 22 mins)
Thursday: 10000 Steps Walking Workout (1 hour and 6 min video, I'm doing the last 22 mins)
Friday: Disney Hits Beginners Walking Workout Part 1 (11 mins) and Part 2 (10 mins)

This week is my Discovery + streaming week, and I will post about it another day. 

I am happy to have good weather this week. The cold last week was so miserable.

I am working on my VC Andrew's book Gates of Paradise still. And I need to finish it by maybe Monday to stay on track. But James bought me the spin off mini novel that goes with my book I finished last, On The Island and I am so excited to read it. I can't decide if I want to wait and finish the one I'm working on though first or not. Decisions, decisions. 

I hope you all have an amazing week!

38 Weeks

Image
Here is my picture for the week! (One day late though). 38 Weeks & 1 Day: December 18th Only two more weeks to go!!!! However I am hoping that Mackinley will come today or tomorrow. Otherwise, I would like her to stay in there until at least the day after Christmas! I just don't want to have her too close to Christmas. If she's a Christmas baby, then so be it, that's just not what I'm hoping for. This week, the most plans we have is my doctors appointment again this week. The day after Christmas. Otherwise, it's normal housework, and relaxing. As for guesses this week on when Mackinley will be here, my official guess is today and one more person also said today. Then mom is hoping for today, but again her official guess is January 1st. Then we have one person who guessed tomorrow the 18th (and one family member out of state who is hoping for the 18th but unofficially, not in the game), two people who guessed wednesday the 19th, one person who guessed th...

End of a Busy Week!

This has been an extremely busy week. I've had appointments and plans and housework everyday! Today I plan to take it easy for the most part. We don't have any appointments for today, no big plans, nowhere we need to go, so we are going to spend the day relaxing, napping, and of course catching up on a bit of housework. Really have some yardwork that needs done too, but with the heat I'm not sure we will get to it! Yesterday was a big day! First, I got a call, saying I was approved for a medical card! Yay! Now I can finally call and find a doctor and get an appointment scheduled! This is big news! I'm so relieved, and glad to finally get moving and see a doctor! Today James is gonna help me look at our choices and we will decide our top choices and then call and see who is available. And secondly, we had our WIC appointment which went very well for the most part! We first did the paperwork part and found out we were approved. Then my iron was checked which I was told ...

More Baby Movement?

Forgot to add in my last post, that over vacation I think I might have felt the baby again. But it was different this time. In the car on the way to Pennsylvania, we had the music kind of loud in the car for a while. During that time only, I felt some movement in my stomach. It wasn't like pokes, or "flutters" as people say. Although I still can't quite figure out what a "flutter" is supposed to feel like. Anyways, this feeling was like if you drink a ton of water or liquids and wiggle your belly around, and that sloshing feeling like you've had too much liquid in your belly. That's what it felt like for a while. And I had not had that much to drink, so I know it wasn't actually liquid in my stomach, and I wasn't moving around anyways. That's why I THINK maybe it was baby, but I'm not sure. Just had to post about that to see what everyone else's opinions are if they think it may have been baby or just a coincidence of somethin...
