Stream of Consciousness

Eric ran his first 5K on Saturday and did great! He ran it in only 25 min. and 37 seconds! That is the faster than any time while he was training. He is going to keep running and do another 5K in our town on October 2. That day I will be watching the race with 2 little boys....crazy! I had a doc. appointment last week and things are looking good. I asked the doctor if he could guess the weight. He was feeling around and asked if I really wanted to know! Oh man. He asked how big the first one was and I said 8 pounds, 10 ounces and he said if Oliver goes full term he will be at least 9 pounds....holy man! I thought he was going to be smaller because he started off that way...haha! How do you prepare yourself for a monster baby?! I am already scared out of my mind to do the whole thing again and now there is a posibility that he will be even bigger than the first. I keep hoping that he will come early, but with my luck, he will go to the exact due date. It is hot and humid here again. Gotta love 90 degree weather and humidity when you are 9 months pregnant! We will definately be spending some time in the pool. I got a killer cramp in my calf muscle yesterday morning. It was bad! It died down a little bit only to come back again. It is still sore and hard to walk on it. Man, I really hate those cramps. Hopefully being in the pool will help. The tree in front of my house is turning color already! Our road was re-done last summer and new trees were planted. We got a Maple and Flowering Pear tree...which I love! The top half of the maple is a pretty red color right now. A little depressing though. I like having cooler weather, sweat shirt weather, but I do not like really cold weather, or snow...yeah, I'm picky. Jamie was playing last night and I can't believe how fast he is growing :( I'm glad to have a new baby soon, but I know he will grow just as fast as Jamie. Jamie is learning so many new words, making 2 and 3 word sentences, in his terrible 2's for sure, and always keeps us on our toes. It is fun to teach him new words because he really focuses on my mouth and tries his hardest to repeat the word. I went to our local Carter's store over the weekend for their huge sale...I will post more about that later...and got the boys some new clothes. Not like Oliver really needs any because he will be born the same time Jamie was. I got them a few matching shirts...I know, they will hate me, but they will look so adorable :) I got Jamie some 4T things to last throughout the winter and spring, thinking they looked pretty big. I was in for a surprise when I tried them on him! He has some room to grow, but they weren't huge like I thought they would be. I got him some winter pjs and the pants were a bit long. He has a long torsoe (that is totally not the correct spelling, sorry!)...top half...and his legs are a bit short. Well, they really aren't short, they are still long for his age, but his top half is longer....something he gets from me. He will be 2 a month from today and wears 3T and 4T things and his shoe size is 8! He also has long arms and is growing out of some of his long sleeve 3T shirts. I will have to do a post just about him, since I just love talking about him! Well, it is 9:15am and the little man is still sleeping....along with the big man. I need some breakfest...at least a real one! I had some Keebler fudge stripe cookies, but should probably have something healthy...haha!
