Just a few cute pictures

Ever since I got pregnant I haven't wanted to do anything. I have been really sick and lazy. Poor Braxton has barely gotten out of the house the last 5 weeks. I am hoping that soon I will start to feel better. Braxton has really started to like everything disney. He could watch cars all day if I let him and lately with me being sick he has been. He loves Mickey Mouse and we are hoping soon that we will be able to take him to Disney Land. Here are some pictures that I really like

Chuck E Cheese

My son is basically scared of EVERYTHING especially rides. However, recently he has loved the rides they have at walmarts fun center. We had some tokens left over from braxtons party at Chuck E Cheese so we decided to take Braxton there last night. I was convinced that he would have a great time. As soon as we walked in he started crying. I think he was scared of all the noise and people. We put him in a big truck and put in a token. He was fine for maybe a second and then when it started moving from side to side he screamed. We tried to show him it was fun but he wasn't having any part of it. So we wasted a few more tokens trying to get him to go on some rides. He just kept saying "seat" (which means his car seat) and running for the door. So after being there maybe 5 minutes we went home. I hope he gets over being scared of everything soon. Its hard to do anything fun!

Ryans New Toy

Ryan got a new gun that can shoot lead bullets so he decided to cast his own. Here is a picture of some of the ingots he made from wheel weights. The electric furnace he used to melt the wheel weights made everything smell and smoke really bad so he can only do a couple at a time.

New potty and Hair cut.

For the past week, every time we put Braxton down for a nap he takes off his pants and diaper and poops on the floor. I have no idea what to do about it. I decided maybe he was ready to start potty training. So yesterday we went to walmart and bought him a potty. He hasn't stopped talking about his potty since we bought it so hopefully that is a good sign. I know that it will probably take a long time to potty train him. Especially since he is so stubborn.



We tried it out this morning but he wouldn't let me take his diaper off.



Today we took Braxton to Cookie Cutters for a hair cut. We usually have Ashley cut his hair but I wanted to try this place out. I was worried because cutting Braxtons hair is never an easy task but he did great. They let you choose a movie and a car to sit in. They also had bubbles at the station he was at. He loved it. He had a big smile on his face the whole time. I will definitely be taking Braxton back there in the future.

PCOS

Ryan and I have been trying to get pregnant for a little while now and it hasnt been working. I haven't had a period in over a year so I wasn't ovulating. I recently went to the doctor and found out I have PCOS (Polycystic ovary syndrome) I don't know exactly what it means but the symptoms are: weight gain,abnormal periods, infertility, and testosterone. I was so happy they had finally figured out what was wrong with me. I have always had these symptoms and no doctor ever would take the time to figure it out. So Dr. Jones gave me some metformin (Its a diabetic medicine but don't worry I don't have diabetes), a pill to help me start my period, and a pill to help me ovulate. After I start my period I take the pill to help me ovulate and then on the 21st day of my cycle I go get my blood drawn to make sure I ovulated. So we are hoping that within a couple months we will be pregnant. Wish us luck!

vinyl fun

For Christmas my mom, Ashley, and I got a cricut. I have been wanting to put vinyl up but wanted to wait until we moved. Last week we were finally able to move into a cute little apartment. Once we were settled in I got started putting up vinyl.

This is in Braxton's room

This is in the laundry room.
I still need to put something in my living room and bedroom but I can't think of anything cute. If you have any ideas please leave me a comment :)
On a different note, Braxton learned what a bird says and I thought it was really cute!
