The VAMPIRE Child

Today Dakota was wrestling with the boys and one of them cut him on the side of his face with their finger nail (its only a scratch). Dakota was lying on the love sac and Bella was walking by and noticed that he had an awey. She walked over to him and stood there for a few minutes looking at it, So Dakota just laid there to let her examine it. Then all the sudden she held his head down with one hand and with the other hand held out a little finger and touched his cut then put her finger in her mouth! YA Disgusting!!! She is a Vampire child!!!

Baby Scare!

I guess since it has been over a month now I am able to tell this story. I was too emotional for me to even write about it but now that I have had another doctors appointment and I know my baby boy is ok, I'm ok. So about a month ago I went to my baby appointment and I felt fine, everything was going well. When the doctor came into the room to listen to the heart beat, there was none. I thought to myself its going to be ok, but I couldn't help but to bust into tears...not knowing what was going on. We went into the other room and looked at the heart on an ultrasound machine and the little heart was barley moving. The only thing I could think of at the time was, at least its still moving, but still crying. We watched it for awhile and it wouldn't pick up the past. Thank goodness my older sister was there to hold my hand through all this...and also it was a blessing having her kids home watching mine. It would have been too hard to handle by myself and even harder with 3 more kids on top of the bad news. We were sent to the hospital to see a ultrasound professional. She worked on me for about an hour and the heart picked up and he was moving and seemed like nothing was wrong. I was so happy but still really scared...and so was my doctor. Dakota showed up to hear that he was having another boy (from my older sister) and that he seemed to be doing fine. We all wanted to find out why this happened and if it was going to happen again or if this was going to be a problem. My doctor set up to go see a high risk ultrasound professional/heart specialist a few days later and once again everything looked fine then too.. I, of course, had to go see my doctor the next day just to hear the heart beating and it was normal. I was so happy, but still worried. But now that it has been a month and I feel him moving all the time and went to the doctor again and everything seems to be doing great, I am less worried. So here we go...over half way done and cant wait to meet the little guy!
