Midweek Meltdown?

So we have been having pretty good days here lately. Not much whining or crying or even fighting for that matter. But, today is Wednesday and I think I can already see the meltdowns coming for the day. Isabelle was up WAY too early this morning and is already getting an attitude. No my dear, you do not need five different things for breakfast.

We got a last minute call last night about 4H. Alex is eligible to a be a Junior Leader this year! But whoops, the extension office forgot to mail you the letter. So we will be rearranging part of our weekend now so he can attend the fall Jr. Leader recruitment party on Saturday evening. Thank goodness it is just down the road from our house.

Our whole weekend will have 4H in it. Sunday evening is the awards dinner. Alex, Aubrie, and Hallie will all receive awards and recognition. We have to bring a side dish to share and I have already had requests for what to bring. I guess I better decide!

I am 16 weeks 1 day into this pregnancy. I can't believe it. I am almost to the halfway point! I go to the doctor tomorrow and hopefully will get to schedule my big ultrasound for the week of Halloween. I am nervous about this pregnancy. I guess it's because we have had 6 healthy kids and I am worried our good fortune will run out. It's funny, my Dad told me a story of when my mom was pregnant with me.(A little back ground,I am #7 of 7 and there is a 12 year age gap between myself and my sister above me. My mom was 43 when she had me. Yeah, I was a surprise!)She was very concerned about having me because of her age and health issues and was worried something would be wrong. My Dad told her that she had six other healthy kids, so why couldn't she have one more? I like his way of thinking. If only it was that easy to relax. I try to remind myself everyday that God only gives you what you can handle.
