Hip... Hip...



... Hooray! For no surgery after all that is! Apparently the doctors in Colorado and the doctors in California went to different schools. This is a little complicated as the CA doctor is the one responsible for getting me knocked up while the CO doctor monitors everything up to the pregnancy. The CO one is the one who found the polyps and thought they needed to come out to allow my body to get pregnant. She said the polyps will act like an IUD and reject the pregnancy. The CA doctor disagrees and wants to move forward without surgery. Which is fine by me, though I do worry about wasting everyone's time and money flying me to CA for the transplant if it might not work because of the polyps... But it's his call, ultimately, and he says we're good to go!

We had a busy weekend, as usual. Friday we ran errands and cleaned the house. Usually I wait until Shawn can help me with it because it's no fun to clean up after 4 people all by myself. However, he's in school now and I thought I'd be nice and let him come home to a house he didn't clean. Because hell, I'd appreciate something like that! Well he wasn't quite as excited as I was, but it did give him time to do homework and such Saturday morning and he was able to join the boys and me at the pool. Which was heated and in fact warmer in the pool than outside it, so we froze, but the boys were so excited to go swimming for the first time this season. I was trying really hard to enjoy it while I could because lord knows it'll be 90 degrees before we know it! After lunch we decided to go see a movie... and then go to a festival. The movie was pretty long - we liked it but it wasn't the best of the three. Gavin had a hard time sitting through it. The festival was fun, but would have been more fun without kids as they were not too interested in anything but, well, the kids stuff. Can't say as I blame them but there were lots of vendors there with next arts and crafts type things. We grabbed some Greek food on the way home and then Shawn and I put the boys to bed and resumed Lost. We never got into it when everyone else did but decided to put the first season on Netflix and we are hooked! We are about halfway through the season and are waiting on more DVD's to come in the mail.

Today we went to a thrift store and then Home Depot where I bought some pretty flowers for our garden... it is looking better. And look how big my green beans are getting! The boys and I spent some time with my sister-in-law and her daughter who got some cute new kitties!
One of the treasures the boys got was a new paper airplane making kit... Here they are trying to put one together.


So that's all the fun we had this weekend... Hope yours was great as well! :)

Hurray for no surgery!!!

I love that you are gardening. I am not sure if I told you what happened with our gardening snafu. I dug up the mulch in the perfect area in our yard only to discover the old below ground oil tank. Ewww. I am totally not going to eat veggies that grew in soil that could be tainted with oil. Yuck.
