Tumbling Class





Connor and Shia started tumbling class this morning. They were the first ones there so they had some extra time to run around and try everything out. They had a blast running around and climbing on everything. They even got a uniform to wear each week! They really liked the exploring time, but weren't so sure about the group times. They could have done without the whole follow directions and do what the teacher does time. They kept trying to leave the circle, but I'm pretty sure that's what 18 month olds do normally. They were both hungry by the end and ready to be done and go eat. Mommy got quite a workout too!

Marley was supposed to have her teeth cleaned today, but the vet decided against it after doing some blood work. He found that her red blood count was low and she had no detectable thyroid activity. So she's on thyroid meds now for the rest of her life...along with the kidney pills. She's also on antibiotics and vitamins for the next few weeks. Poor Connor won't get any new toys for a while because we've spent sooo much on these darn dogs! And Marley still needs to have her teeth cleaned in a few weeks!

I'm 37 weeks today which is considered full term! Evan can come any time now and should be good to go. We still have the c-section scheduled for Sept 24th though. My anemia has almost gone away (almost normal levels) with the pills I take twice a day so it shouldn't present any complications during the surgery. I just keep taking them until then...not sure about after he comes. We've gotten all the baby stuff out in hopes that Connor will eventually stop playing with it and let the baby use his own stuff, but I don't see that happening too quickly. I'm just hoping Connor doesn't yank him out of anything so he can get in. We're working on the concept of "share."
