This week, I signed Noah up for preschool in the Fall at Kids Village. He is going to be in the "Little Sprout" group. I was surprised to find that spaces were already limited, so we were forced to do afternoon which I'm okay with. I think it will be nice for Noah to get out and socialize and play with other kids when the baby comes and he's cooped up in the house. Since he is so young, I felt bad leaving him so he will just go 2 days a week for a couple hours, but I'm hoping it gives me some time to play catch up if I can get him to school and the baby down for an afternoon nap. These scheduled breaks are going to be a lifesaver for me, and hopefully for Noah as well. They have a cooking class, science class, play time, reading time and music time. It's laid out like a village surrounding a tree house. Everything was so quaint and friendly, and I was surprised how new and clean everything was. Hope he likes it...
May is always a fun time of year with everything warming up and summer around the corner. It also is special because Rylee and Kale were both born this month, which means two birthday parties for Noah. Rylee's was the the Hogle Zoo and Noah loved it. I didn't realize that kids three and under were free so I'll be taking him more often since he had so much fun. His favorite animals were probably the elephants. There was a "Daddy," "Mommy," and "Baby Noah" elephant that were really active. Eating, splashing in the water and taking mud baths. He couldn't get enough of it. I was sort of let down by the tigers who just slept the whole time we were there. I swear this happens every time I go to the zoo. He also loved the turtles which surprised me because I realized how creepy turtles are when you stare at them for a long period of time. They started to look dead to me but they yet they still were moving, it freaked me ou...
I've had this weird urge to see Ireland for a really long time now. I finally decided I was going to book it and talked three sisters (Kate, Karyn and Kami) and one SIL (Linh) into coming. I was shocked how easily it all came together and everyone was basically just up for some good old fashioned girl time. It seemed like a good trip to take without the kids since I knew it would just be a lot of driving and sight seeing which they would definitely not be that into. It was so fun just being able to be as carefree as you can be while driving around on the left side of the road. The flight getting there was an absolute fiasco since storm Stella decided to move in the day we were scheduled to arrive in JFK. Five scheduled flights later, Aer Lingus eventually rescheduled us out of Orlando after a day of being on the phones and we were able to get out and arrived just a few hours later than originally planned. We had a bunch of layovers but at ...
I wanted to take a minute and write down the story of how Cole Henry Brinton became a part of our family. After a few years of trying we knew it was time to start taking other measures. Dr. Nance, my regular OB/GYN, started me on clomid which is how I got Isabel after six months on it. Well we did that and nothing so the doctor order me to go into the hospital and have a HSG test which basically they shoot dye into your uterus and tubes to make sure there are no obstructions. He said they usually came back normal but it was the first test they run since it's usually the quickest at finding a problem. Well I went in expecting to have a quick in and out. The radiologist said he would only need to be taking three films and it would be over. Well of course that's not what happened. He began filling my uterus with dye and it would not enter the tubes. In other words, Ouch! This causes you to start having major cramping and I wasn't expecting to...
