And for Father's day, Johnny got a nice new Serta Executive desk chair--here he is putting it together. We had the same cheap computer chair for the 5 years we have been married, so this was a nice upgrade.
It was nice that John had the weekend off with us, although we didn't get too much done. I cleaned out the fridge and we stocked it after going to Costco, but we have yet to take the weinerdogs to the groomer, and there is so much cleaning needing to be done. We went to Water Country on Saturday and Lucas enjoyed being with daddy there--he didn't cry when we took him in the wave pool since it was so hot outside. We visited Lina in Queens Lake and saw her huge new house--she made Lumpia for us, and Loly made a cake--yum! We also took a lot of family naps, and Lucas is now sleeping in his crib in his room like a big boy at night--he sleeps pretty well, and wakes up 2 to 4 times for a bottle, depending on how much he slept that day. It's nice not to have to worry about waking him up if I move when I'm sleeping though--or John's snoring. Plus, we better get Lucas used to sleeping in his room before this new one comes!
My next prenatal appt is on wednesday--John got the day off to go with me. We both discussed how it is a little overwhelming to think about having another newborn so soon--not to mention go through labor again. But we are still excited and we picked a girl's name and a boy's name. We like Olivia, and Julian. I am anxious to find out the sex, and just be done with the first trimester already!

Funny. We just built Eddie's high chair yesterday. We received it as a BBshower gift.
BTW, here is a link to a blog of a friend of my Bradley Method instructor. She goes over so many issues related to vaccines:

iris- thanks for the link. I checked it out briefly and it's sad to read all the stories of people's kids shutting down...i am grateful to have known and learned from jim and shawna and their experience. and it's also very touching and encouraging all the progress they continually make with him. like your friend theresa said, we constantly as parents re-evaluate what is right for our kids because we love them. All unimportant things fall to the side, and we really are forced too, look at things objectively and decide what is best, what is right. it's a lot of pressure to be solely responsible for another human being!
