Hayden has "Mulluscum", yes it was the word scum in it. Its a virus of the skin much like chicken pox or warts and what do i have to do to get rid of it? Pop the little pimpley things until the virus pops out, bath him and then put iodine on him. Sounds like fun. Now I just have to find a way to make him sit still for that long!

Jason and I having been discussing painting. And by painting we basically mean every room in the house. The bathroon for sure(just white, whew), the Kitchen(just the ceiling and one of the colors needs touchup, the guy at Menards gave me the wrong kind of paint for kitchens and so grease sticks out like a sore thumb), and then our room, the boys room and the living room. And we are so at a lose to what color to paint them. The boys room has somethings known about it. I want it match the new curtains i bought, Haydens bedding and Carson's bedding. So Jason and I went to Menards to buy paint and all i came home with was this:
I think i am going with the middle color on the sample with three. We are going to do a few circles with the colors of the curtains so all the colors tie in, i think!

Just thought I'd post quick! Not too much is going on these days. Jason and I went to Target last night and figured out what we still need, not a ton, thank goodness for the baby. Hayden has been a hoot lately with his questions, comments and everything in between.

Hayden and I are going on Spring Break with my mom and dad soon. We are heading to Branson, it will be a little shorter than usual but thats okay, I am 8 months pregnant.

Our basement is coming along, thanks to Jason!

I was talking to my mom yesterday telling her I had nothing really to blog about. We've all had colds and for almost 2 weeks and just trying to stay healthy! So that was going to be my exciting post until....

I was driving down 6th street with my mom and dad and saw a SWLP truck in front of our house, so we go over there and there is a water main break and we have a mini geyser coming up next to the house, the yard is flooded and we have a brown lake in the backyard. I go in and down in the basement and we had a waterfall coming down the basement wall, at a rather fast pace. The basement also had a pool in it. It was great! So all of this was discovered at about ten to three, the SWLP guy had been there since 2. I had left at 11:30 and nothing was wrong, i would of noticed, really. At 9:45 last night the water still hadn't stopped. We found out that the water shutoff wasn't where it was suppose to be, the one we have is from at least 1889(when it was mapped for the city could be a least 20 years older than that) and it was broken off the box or something. No other shut off was working. We had 6 SWLP people there at a time. They just couldn't figure it out. Jason had to open this morning and drove past at 4:00(we stayed at my moms, no water and jackhammering all night wasn't really worth staying at home for) and said the water had finally stopped and they only dug in the street, which hopefully means that SWLP will be paying for our damage, which isn't too bad, yet. Hopefully we'll get the water undercontrol outside of the house so it doesn't push on the basement wall. So so far we've been lucky. Let's pray it stays that way. And my house is a huge mud hole! We weren't really caring about the dirt and mud when running through the house but its going to need a really good cleaning or a visit from Servicemaster. There is a lot of water, sand, mud etc in the basement. So that was our exciting day thats happened in the last 2 weeks!

Now Hayden is watching Diego and is happy because my mom and dad had "daddy's kind of cereal" and we had a bowl.

I was labeling the post and put in Winter Fun because this is the epitome of "winter fun"

I haven't done a baby Carson post in a while!

I had my 28 week appointment last week and all was very well! I passed my Gestational Diabetes test, which was a huge relief. It really wasn't very bad drinking the drink either, it just tasted like syrupy Sprite. My doctor told me that I am the lowest of low risk pregnancies too! I haven't had a tad of trouble or issues. I feel so great! Carson's heart rate was at 142(at all the u/s it was 141) he is very consistent. She even found it right away, she just put her doppler on my belly and boom it was the heartbeat, we laughed she said that never happens. I do have to have appointments every 2 weeks from now until 36 weeks. I am just seeing the Nurse Practitioner next just because all is so well.

We are excitingly getting ready around the house for him too. I cleaned out Hayden's closet, which was a HUGE Project and took almost 4 hours. Afterwards I hung up 0-3 month clothes and put tshirts, onesies, socks, hats etc into cute baskets I bought. I did realize that I am going to have to buy some outfits for the littlest sizes because those were all very wintry clothes from Hayden. I don't think wearing wool sweaters in May will work! I couldn't believe how nice everything had stayed from Hayden either. It getting closer and closer! I really should probably be more ready than I am, but oh well it will all come together I am sure!

Last week was a very odd week for us! Monday and Tuesday we had no school due to a potential ice storm that never really materialized. Wednesday was normal and then Thursday I had a staff meeting all morning and then I was off until Monday! So we took advantage of the long weekend and headed down to the cities for some fun and shopping! I got some good deals! Babies R Us and Toys R US both had 50% already Clearanced clothes so Carson got some cute pieces and outfits. I got some super cute Carter sweaters for only $4.00! They also had 20% off already Clearanced merchanise so I bought a bouncer chair because I had a coupon for an additional 20% off, so i ended up paying $14.xx for it! Ikea was having a special on Saturday for 400 thread count sheets for $9.99 so we thought we'd head over there Saturday morning. It was a ZOO! Just crazy! People really wanted cheap sheets. They said one per household, but people had their whole family standing in seperate lines with sheet sets. Oh well, we followed the rules and only bought one! Thats all we bought there too. I wasn't digging Ikea on Saturday. After that we went to Hopkins and meet Lisa, Nick and Jessica to see the play "Goodnight Moon". It was cute, short and perfect for little kids. Hayden really enjoyed it! Especially the tap dancing bears. After the play we all headed over to the Convention Grill for some supper. After that Hayden, Jason and I went to AdventureLand, a indoor playground. We went here before with my Mom and Dad. Hayden had a blast(so did Jason!) sliding, climbing, and playing with giant balls. My Mom and Dad were also in the cities for the weekend so we met up with them for some yummy Custard at Liberty Custard and went swimming on Sunday at their Waterpark hotel. I didn't, I went shopping with my mom! Hayden on Saturday night was swimming in our hotel pool. We decided to have him try swimming without his floatie, he did so well. By the end of the night he was swimming about 10 feet or so by himself above and underwater. He really favors swimming underwater. We were really proud of him! So that was a little highlight of what we did this weekend. Pictures are here:
