So a few things to report today. Yesterday I bought Marcelus a blow up swimming pool. Actually it says 6 and up on the box and is probably quite big...there were like 4 adults and 4 kids on the box picture, but at least the whole family can fit in it then. I need to get a couple tarps if I'm hoping for it to last through the summer. And we need a hose which we were supposed to get anyway so our plants and tree don't die out front, yikes! I'll take pictures when we have our first swim day. I bought it for kind of a funny reason, well one is that it's so hot and will be nice to swim a lot more this summer than just once in a while in town because or neighborhood doesn't have a community pool... Let's face it I am going to be hot once the temps really kick up, but here's the real reason. It's getting too hot to take Marce to the park anymore unless it's dusk plus I don't want to have to contain him anymore (remember that time he ran away from me) It's not like he's bad or anything, but with the pool in our backyard, I have nothing to worry about as far as him getting away from me. I think it will be a great outlet for Marce since we won't be going to the park as much. And another big reason is after I have Phoenix we won't be going to the park much at all. We can all swim though...

The Suns play tonight but I don't get the game, bummer. We should win though.

I have a soar throat and a yucky cough ..... but only in the night really. It doesn't help my sleep but it's pretty much gone during the day, the thing that annoys me is I've had it for a week, when will it lift? I haven't taken anything for it cause I avoid medicine on top of that I'm pregnant and am limited to a couple things, that I don't even know what they are, I took Tylenol pain reliever the first night but nothing after that. Hope it goes away soon. The nights just kind of suck. I am propped up for the pregnancy already but I guess not enough because I can tell that's something that makes it worse, laying down...

Lastly, this morning, Marce woke up when Shar did basically at 6 which is early for him, and me! He is going to bed on his own now, it's been amazing, but he still continues to get up in the nights about half the time, I haven't really thought of how to cure this problem yet...anyway because he woke up so early this morning and I am pregnant and tired and my throat hurts, I put on Cinderella for him and went back to bed (on the couch) Sleeping peacefully, I am tired, but no...I wake up to Marce putting an open poopy diaper on top of me! I have been having him sleep in just a t-shirt because I haven't turned my air on yet and am determined to sweat it out a little longer! Well, when Marce doesn't have pants on he will tear his diaper off, esp. when he needs to be changed! Luckily I got him in a new diaper and took care of the poopy one without any mess. I am surprised this happened as I thought he was constipated because I haven't seen any poop in a while and he's been eating a lot of bananas. He always eats a lot of bananas I guess, but I guess I didn't expect a huge nasty poopy diaper wake up call...who does?

These pictures are from the other day, he's been going around in just a diaper some times cause it's a little warm. He got a hold of his beanie out of his drawer and wanted to wear it. He put it on and wore it for a couple hours...
