We are ready!

We are SO happy to finally be moved into our new house and ready for our trip to Atlanta!



We all love the house so far (except when the AC went out a week ago b/c the air filter had not been changed by the previous owner since the house was built almost three years ago). The only upside of a hot house was that our little Charlotte chose to sleep in until 10:30am! What?!? The boys have chosen to continue to share a bedroom/bathroom. Charlotte and Will (we have chosen to name #4 William Emory- family names- and call him Will) share a bathroom. The fifth bedroom has been made into a playroom.

Pregnancy #4 has been going well- I've barely had time to remember I'm pregnant. Heartbeat strong and the baby is looking good thus far! I cannot believe I've already started the third trimester- wow how time has flown! My only problem so far has been the onset of reflux this past week (oh, and the fact that his head is in my ribs...he has my full permission to turn head down anyday now). I've never had it before and the suffocating feeling that my throat is closing up is HORRIBLE (especially for someone who is so claustrophobic). My dr appt is tomorrow, along with my diabetes test (which I'm fully prepared to get failing results on, like with both other boys), and hopefully the dr will have some sort of advice on what to do about the reflux. I cannot even drink a glass of water and feel normal afterward. Anyone ever had this? At first I thought I was having an allergic reaction to some food I ate, which was making my throat close up but after taking benadryl (no effect) and the feeling lasting for several days I figured something different was happening.



On a more positive note, we are very excited to have Minnie coming into town tomorrow morning and then Tuesday morning we take off to Atlanta for a couple weeks. We are so excited and cannot wait to see family and friends!

I cannot believe #4! I had terrible reflux. TUMS, TUMS, and more TUMS! Sleep sitting up helps too. It means he will have a lot of hair!

Such a cute post! Glad you are doing well besides the reflux. I agree with the other post...tums, malox(sp) whatever you can get your hands on! That is all that worked for me. Have a great time in Atlanta!
