oh what a fun week it was...yea right. monday was morgens appt; she weighs 17lbs 5oz and is 26 in. healthy girl. mentioned to dr davis about juls drinking sdo much, so he wanted a urine sample. this is where it gets fun. we tried 2 bags, and both leaked. so weds we went back in, and they tried another kind of bag, it worked, and all is good, shes just a thirsty girl.
i finally picked a direct sales company to try. i am now a LATASIA designer. now to some parties started.
i think thats it here.

things have been ok here, we had the memorial on monday, and had 89 ppl attend. not bad for a congregation of 54. been doing a little scrapping here and there. those can be seen at http://www.RAKScraps.com. user name tjcjlc99 in the gallery.
been looking t jewelry business direct sales still, was going to sign w/ LATASIA, but couldnt this week. hopefully next week, so i can start bring in some $$ to help w/ bills.
joclyn hasnt been doing so well w/ going to speech. this week was spring break, so we'll see how it is next week. mom and dad bought the girls a "hummer" to drive. j doesnt quite understand it. hmmm, not much else to say. check out my LO's at tthe link.:)

first things first...INDIANAPOLIS COLTS WON SUPERBOWL XLI.!!!its been bitterly cold last week. jl didnt work, except for friday. all the girls have been sick w/ colds. jocy and juls still have a yucko cough.so we stayed home from meeting tonight. work is ok, -cept jl is having a hard time handling the girls,M gets real crabby at night. so looking for something else now. most likely that'll ill need day care, it happens.


Morgen had her 4 mo appt last monday. 15 lbs; 24.5 inches. so growing well. ive made a few more layouts last week too.


lets see if i can post them... WELL they are on here, just not quite where id put them. grin-
thats about it.

Ive been slacking again, but as usual life gets ahead of blogging. everything is good here, although we are all sick, everyone but joclyn, and jl is getting better now. just colds, so nothing too bad.
Teresa had her boy, nathan joseph was born at 11:23pm on 1/31. weighing 7lbs 13oz and 21 inches. not nearly as big as they thought, but big none the less.
Ive started to do a few scrapping LOs again, but havent uploaded them anywhere yet. still downloading some new kits to use. and still trying to figure out how to make my own so i can offer some freebies.
we are going to josh's sunday. its SUPERBOWL XLI(I think thats 41?)and even better... its the COLTS vs bears. should be a good game. morgen has her 4mo appt on monday, so ill update again then after that.im sure shes growing well.
not sure if i mentioned it before but kerrigan in pg again. she is due in mid-late june(i think). i think thats all the news here for me. again, i hope to keep up better on this, and hopefully show off some of my LOs eventually.

wow, its been about 3months since ive been updating this thing. im so bad, i just get so sidetracked. anything new here... morgen is getting big. at her 2month appt in dec. she weighed in at 11lbs 13oz, and 22 1/4 inches tall.so she is a healthy baby still. she does have reflux, and is on zantac for that.
jocy had her appt in dec for her 4 yr well child check. she is 32 1/2 lbs, and 36 1/4 inches tall. shes such a small girl. but shes just taking after me.
juliana is so the opposite, but thats ok. both love morgen to death. im looking for a job still. seems im not qualified for much, but eventually something will come up, and ill be contributing to the bills a small bit.
Its 2007... wow. so jl and i are starting to try portion control, and watching the caloric intake of things. i packed his lunch for tomorrow, and will try to do that so he doesnt splurge too much. we also hope to work out together in the AM. ugh, so early. speaking of, id better finish up on here, so i can get to bed. hopefully morgen will stay asleep till morning like normal.
ill try to update more soon, and keep on top of this thing.

SHE'S HERE!!!! miss morgen made her way on sept 22, 2006. i had my appt on the 20th, and dr meekof had me schedule my induction for the 25th. i hadnt had any progress in 2wks, and he figured shes my 3rd, she'll br about 8lbs. so i knew i had less than a wk then.
i actually started laboring on fri the 22nd at 8am.irregular, but getting painful. justin called about 9.30ish saying got rained out, on his way home.told him having contractions, but not regular. he was going to gander mtn. calls at 10.30 and i tell him they are between 2-4 min. he's on hius way. i call bev to watch the girls.jl wants me to call the clinic so dr m knows im going in, even though hes not on call. jl gets home about 11.30, bev about 11.40, and we head out.ctx are about 2 min now.jl calls mom, tells her ti be on her way, and calls his parents and my labor buddy from DIS.get to the hospital about 12.15p. he gets a wheelchair for me, and runs me to the check in. they put me in triage, check me, still too high and imstaying. i get up, and my water breaks. get me to the labor suite, and the ctx are closer yet. get in the bed, and try to get my epidural, but its too late, i couldnt sit up. they check me again, i am COMPLETE, and at +1+2station. the epi wouldnt work until after baby, and iv meds would make baby sluggish. no pain relief. UGH!!! i do lots of small pushes/grunts getting baby down, and i can feel her down there. they check and shes there. dr durbin was still "suiting up" w/ only 1 glove on before i could push again. i did, and she was out. beautiful baby girl.had to wait forever for the afterbirth though. so miss morgen mckenna was 6lbs 10oz and 19inches long. born at 1.16pm. that went quick, but seemed like forever at the time. saturday i had my tubal, dr meekof was at a football game, so dr durbin got to do that too. i do like him. so thats that story. she only lost 1oz when leaving the hospital.
the girls love their new baby sister. joclyn is very possessive. and juls hasnt quite gotten "gentle" yet, but soon im sure. plan on meeting this thursday. we think morgen looks more like me than the others did. she also does a lot of things already. lifts her head, kinda laughs, tries to roll to her side. she gained back her 1oz within 2 days. dr davis was very impressed. i have some GOOD milk. and shes a good eater. thats all that. too.

first things first, i had my 38wk dr appt on weds. i had NO CHANGE...grrr. baby is still at -3station, so my cervix is still quite high. he did say that if i have not had her by my next appt next week, then we will probably induce the 25th. so at most i have 10more days of being pregnant. thats a plus. but id still rather just go on my own, except he probably wouldnt be on call.
onto other things, teresa had her u/s today.................................. ITS A BOY!!! im kinda jealous. but we are not trying again for a boy, so ill take my 3 girls thank you. talked to andrea yesterday, her baby shower is oct 7, which most likely i wont be going to. so that stinks. but what can ya do?? thats all going on here.
oh i did do another LO, havent posted it anywhere yet though. im such a slacker lately. :)
