Thursday August 2

I found a cure for morning sickness!! My friend Jodie's mother had sent me some ginger candy from Trader Joe's a while ago, because I LOVE ginger candy. I had read somewhere that ginger helped, so I dug one out and ate one. Sure enough I felt 100 percent better! Anytime it comes back I eat one and feel better. I LOVE It!! Now, I have to hit Jodie's mom up to get to Trader Joe's again, because we don't have one here and I am almost out. I think I may be able to order them directly online too, but it is more fun to send Jodie's mom out on treasure hunts.

Devlin was getting carried away at snuggle time and was banging my belly with his leg. I told him to quit kicking his sister and just like any brother would do, he laughed and did it some more. I had to distract him and send him off to play, but I thought the maniacle little giggle told all.

Feeling great today! Work was great last night too cause I had help. I hope it goes as well tonight. I told Gretchen (the nurse I work with) my story about crying over cake. She said Angela had come out and asked about the cake and they had told her to eat it. I said it was fine that she ate it, I just thought it was funny that I cried over cake.

My son is obsessed with contraptions. We accidentally let him watch an episode of Tom and Jerry where Tom builds a better mouse trap. We had to tape it to VCR and he has rewound and watched it a zillion times today. He cannot understand why he can't build a mousetrap with a gun, knife, saw, and old wringing washing machine.
Oh, and he was not accepted for early kindergarten enterance. John was furious!! He said if he had been born 23 days earlier all this testing and stuff would be a non issue. He is write. I think the part of the "readiness" test he failed was because of things we won't let him do anyway, like walking to the neighbors alone and taking a bath alone. Crazy. I am looking into other programs though. Will keep posting.

Off to feed the boy while he watches the mousetrap thing for the zillionth and one time.
