#2-Double Check pockets before washing
#3-If some how an orange crayon still ends up in the dryer with a large load of whites GOOD LUCK!
This was a frusterating experience. With a little 409, Spray N Wash, and a lot of time scrubing with a tooth brush I was able to save some of the clothes but not most of them. I think I will hang up Zeke's white church shirt in the laundry room as a reminder to follow my first 2 tips.
Yesterday we bought a bunk bed that can also be used as 2 twin beds. We will first use them as two beds one for Zeke and one as a guest bed in the computer room. I showed him the boxes last night and he wanted his new bed not his crib, lukily he was tired and soon fell asleep in his crib anyway. When we have them put together I will take some pictures to post.
As most of you know I have had awfull morning sickness since we found out we are expecting. It has gotten better but I still have days where nothing will stay down. The doctor was hoping this would end with my first trimester but it hasn't. I think she is concerned that I only gained 1lb in the last 4 weeks and am still not up to my original weight before all the morning sickness. I have developed a tummy and now look pregnaunt instead of just chubby, especially after I eating. We will find out if we are having a little girl of boy on June 10th it would have been sooner but this way Matt is done with work and can be there for the appointment.
If it is a girl her name will be Avalon Raine Reynolds and if it is a boy it will be Blaire Codie Reynolds. When we asked Zeke if we were having baby Avalon or Blaire he started saying baby Avy over and over so I guess that is his way of saying we are having a girl. If you ask Matt and I we would have to agree with him. We will find out in less then 4 weeks.
We have been shopping for a new couch since all we had were two small loveseats it drove Matt crazy that we couldn't lay down with out either elevating our head and legs or all curled up. Well a few weeks ago we found a huge sectional for a great price at Best Buy. It is very comfy and big enough we can all lay down at the same time with no problems.
Another new thing we recently purchased is a dog. Yes we are going to try this one more time. As you may recall this is dog #4 for us since we moved here in October. We rescued 3 others and things just didn't work our with each of them for one reason or another. Well this dog is very different from the others. Her name is Pheobe and is a 3yr old wiener dog. We got her from the shelter I sometimes volenteer at. We have had her since Saturday and things have been great. She is house broke and is used to sleeping in a crate at night, she is a lap dog and stayes by my side most of the day. She learned fast that the upstairs is off limits and is normally quite. She does bark at a man that comes over to deliver papers to my for work but other then that no barking. She is good with Zeke, I don't know how much experiance she has with kids but if Zeke does something she doesn't like she turnes around and licks him. One thing I have been trying to work on is when she is woken up or started she jerks around with her mouth open like she is going to bite. She doesn't but it is a habit I don't want her to have just in case. Also she ran out of the front door the other day and Matt had to chase her up and down the street but came back to me when I went outside. We are woking on her not going for the front door unless she is leashed and invited she is going much better.
Well Zeke is awake I will try and post pics during his nap time later.
