less than 6 weeks to go!

ok Actually it is 8 weeks until my "due date" but I am not going past my birthday. So in 6 weeks I will be considered full term! I want to be able to eat thanksgiving dinner and then go in but we will see when baby L thinks she is ready for the world.
I am so happy that my hubby has signed us up to go see the tour of the hospital. I was very worried about this. I will be delivering in a different hospital this time because I switched Doctors. I am back to my old doctor but she switched practices and hospitals. He also signed up for a review classes so that we can "be ready" for labor and delivery. As ready as I can be. I am a little worried that this will be the longest and hardest. So far as each child has been longer and harder labor. Ms. G was born one hour after I reached the hospital. Mr. A was born just an hour or two after they broke my water. Baby AL was born 3/4 hours after they broke my water. So baby L will be born 4/5 hours. I don't do well with pain I am not so sure I will be able to handle 5 hours. I think she will be my most difficult yet.
We still have some things to do but for the most part we are ready. Stuff wise that is. Not so sure about the physical yet. Soon I will be. I guess I should say sooner or later; ready or not she will be here in less than 2 months.

Wow fall is already here!!

It's been a while, I know. Life has been hectic. Lots to do in the house! I ended up switching doctors because the one I had at the beginning of my pregnancy was not listening to me at all. SO I went back to Dr. Weatherford. She delivered Baby AL! I am so happy to have her as my doctor again. I am actually felling much better and I am having a great pregnancy so far. I only have about 6-8 weeks left!
Sean has been working hard. Going to Boston a little much but.... when the boss wants ya; the boss wants ya! He got a Directors Award!!! Go SEAN! other than that he has been doing well. He needs to do Tea Kwon Do more but so do we all!
Ms. G is in 5th grade! WOW! She is growing up! She is in advance classes this year! She loves her teacher. Although, she hates her Math teacher. I think she is more scared of her Math teacher than really hates her. She is also hating spelling. I don't blame her. I still hate spelling! I am just trying to make her understand she still has to try in spelling, she just can not give up.
Mr. A seems to be doing well for now. He has a good teacher. We will see in a few weeks if he really is doing well. For the most part he is enjoying going to school. Hopefully that will not change when it starts to get harder. He did get 3 stitches (really needed more but...) at the nuts house. I do not blame the nut for this. Mr. A was just being himself. He fell into the fireplace and hit his head. I just hated getting that call... your child is 5 hours away and is heading to the hospital. Ok granted, it turned out to fine but I do not trust the nut to take care of the kids. So I was not dealing real well with it.
Baby Al has been sick. He ended up in the hospital for a few days because of pneumonia. It came on really quick. It started with my cold I had had for a few weeks. Within a few days he was really sick. I am a little upset with the Kid Med place we went to first because of his breathing. They just stabilized him and sent him back home. When I took him into the doctor the next day, they wanted him admitted. I only took him in to his doctor because I wanted to know why Baby AL was having problems breathing. And the Kid Med place really did not address it. It turns out he probably should have been admitted to the hospital the night before. Oh well, he is doing well now.
I guess that is it for now. You are mostly caught up on my life. oh wait, did I tell you? I am having a girl! We are very excited and almost ready! I will go through pictures and post some soon I promise.
