Emily has been doing really well listening to me at bed time lately! Thank goodness because I may have started going crazy :) She has done so well that today I decided to try something new with her. We started an "Emily's Star Chart." There is a list of 5 different chores/good behavior things listed on the chart. Once Emily gets 15 stars, that means she's done that thing 15 times, she gets a reward. She picked the reward for each category. For two of the rewards she put she wanted a trip to the park, two other rewards were getting to buy a new toy, and the last reward was getting candy. Here are some pictures of her Star Chart.
In other news LOL... I went to get gas in my car this week and this is what I experienced... It didn't actually fill my car with gas, the pump just stops at $75.00.
Lastly, I was in the hospital this week because baby Joe was trying to work his way out of my tummy all on his own. I went in to Clovis Community and I was having contractions but nothing that was consistent enough to be worried about it. I took a few pictures while I was there.
If I don't look happy in the picture, it's not that I wasn't doing okay but I kept hearing babies being born and even their first cries. It made me miss my husband a lot and I just laid there praying that he will make it home in time for JP's entrance. Those are the precious moments you can never get back. I still remember hearing the first cries of both Emily and Roxy. I love my baby girls and I can't wait to meet my first, and only :), baby boy!
Oh, one more thing... I haven't really posted any pictures of my belly so here is one for daddy to see. I am about 7 months pregnant in it.
Hopefully I can update everyone on Joe soon. All I know right now is that he has been working really hard on a few missions. He has experienced some back pain and pain in his ankle so keep him in your prayers. He loves his job and he is a hard worker but he is definitely missing his family and friends. He should be home for JP's arrival (crossed fingers), but we are all looking forward to seeing each other.
Stay safe daddy! We love you!
