"Docker" Day!

{I tried to post this on Monday, when we had our actual appointment but I JUST realized that it said the upload had failed...}

In the grand scheme of things, today has been super uneventful in our world. There isn't much to blog about, but who can go wrong with a super cute kid post?!?

Today was Doctor's appointment day!! I just love hearing the precious heartbeat that powers all the kicks & jabs that sometimes keep me awake for hours on end :)!! Jackson is becoming more & more interested in hearing it too, "Mommy, Cooper's hearbea" {he says them without the "t"s, so I spelled it that way!}

The only concern I've had so far has been the 6 straight days of Braxton Hicks, some so painful that it hurts to breathe through them :(. Doctor Curry suggested that I take 3- 200 mg ibuprofen after I got home from my appointment {3:30ish} and then have a decent sized glass of red wine with dinner to help me relax. I must have missed the parts where everything I've read would have said that these pesky boogers are caused by stress... I have plenty of it so it makes complete sense.

The wine has helped tremendously. I didn't realize how tightly I was wound until I was able to let go of everything. James was just as happy, and a little relieved, to be thanked for putting up with me and loving me through my crankiness. He stepped back tonight & let the wine do its thing. I was on my way to bed almost 2 hours ago when I got super hungry again, or I'd be in bed :)!

The 2nd biggest highlight of my day was Jackson telling his baby brother "nigh nigh"!

I am the luckiest mom in the universe and I can't wait to have both of my boys in my arms!!!
