May!!!

I know it is already the 6th of May but I just wanted to say Yea! May is here. It seems like I have been waiting for this month forever. So in 11 or 13 days I will have my little Maren! I have been going to the doctor like every other day. I have had my stress tests and the ultrasound done for the week and I passed, well I should say Maren passed, with flying colors. Thank goodness my little one is doing ok. On Thursday I decided to ask my doctor if I could just be induced and have my baby this next week and she turned me down flat. So I was a little irritated, imagine that!. So I asked if I still needed to take more tests since the baby is doing fine and my Doctor said that yes I still have to do all the tests. I wonder if she knows how much those things cost. By the time that Maren will be born I will probably have 8 ultrasounds, 8 non-stress tests, blood work like 5 times and there is probably something else I am forgetting. But seriously if the baby has nothing wrong with her why all these tests. We are going to be living on the street once we see how much this is all going to be. I know I am thinking about this in the wrong way, I should be more worried about her health and not the cost of it all. But really. URGH!

So Kodi is super funny these days. She is just learning so much and she is so smart. She totally runs the house and she knows it. She lets me know when she thinks I am doing something wrong. She will say "no no ma ma" and then she will give me a look. She also learned the word "ouch" which she uses to her advantage, usually in public. And now she has "uh-oh" down. So when ever she drops something, which is usually on purpose she says "uh-oh". Another fun thing that she is doing that totally melts my heart is she will blow kisses. She does a good job and blows really hard to make sure you get that kiss. I love her so much. Its a good thing we have her.

Andrew is done with school for the semester. YES!!!! FINALLY!!!. He just works so hard at his job and at school I miss being able to just hang out with him. He starts summer school the same week the baby is due but all his classes are on line.

This weekend is Mothers Day. Andrew and Kodi got me a Kindle reader. I love it. Riley, my mom and I are getting our toes done on Saturday and that should be fun. It will be nice to have cute toes for a while. John is in town for a few days and we are having a family party tonight. I made blueberry pound cake and it is super yummy. So good in fact I don't want to share it. But Andrew told me that I dad to. :) Its a good thing I have him to keep me in check or else I would be 200lbs by now.

Well that is all for this edition of Ashley's random thoughts! Happy Mothers Day to everyone.
