kick, baby, kick

Well, finally it is the weekend. For every day this week I have taken Brooke to the park, and man my back and feet are really feeling it now. But it's worth it, she loves the park and she is so happy there.

So far I have heard nothing on whether or not I got the job, but hopefully I will hear from them this week.

I finally felt the baby move!! I was changing Brooke when all of a sudden I felt a good kick in my lower stomache. He/she doesn't move around much, but when he/she does, boy do they move!!

Today we are going to JoAnne's so that I can pick up some yarn and some fabric. The yarn is to finish the baby blanket and to start Brooke's bear, and the fabric is for the shawl I am going to make my mom for her birthday. We're also going to go to the library, and if the weather holds up, we might stop in at the park for a little bit.

Brookie had def cut down on her nursing. She no longer nurses to sleep at night and she only nurses in the morning about half the time. However, she does still nurse for her nap and if she isn't feeling well she will nurse. The rash she had never went away, so I took her to the doctors and she said Brooke has eczema. Then she told me that if she doesn't improve her vocabulary in three or four months then we should get her tested for speech development, since problems with speech runs in my family (my sister). Boy, did I really feel like a failure when I left the office. Eczema and possible speech problems? Not what I needed to hear. Last night I dreamed the Brookie was walking around and I was trying to get her to talk, but the only word she would say was "pizza". It was weird.

Well, gotta go get ready. Ciao.
