March 6th

Well, Will is headed back to the dr this afternoon. I can't take anymore of this winter germ crap. It's overwhelming as a parent, especially when you have more than one child. Poor Will just wants to be held and Clare needs some things done for her so I struggle with the "do I let him just sit there and cry or do I make her be a big girl and do this stuff for herself." It's a no-win!
I signed Clare up for the 3yr old swim classes beginning March 31st. I think she will do well and this is prep for her summer swimming. I think it is VERY important to get kids in the water as early as you can and the importance of learning to swim is (to me) one of the most valuable things you can teach a child (ie: survival skill!) So, I hope she can listen and do everything the older kids do. But, her maturity level is much higher than a 3 year old in some respects, so I think it will be fine!
I went to the dr the other day with some cramping. I am getting a prescription for a bladder infection. So, that should help. I also had some swelling that the dr thinks is related to an inflamed vericose vein. Weird. So, I was told to stay off my feet a bit to get the swelling down and go from there. It is no danger to the baby, so that is what is the most important. I am just uncomfortable, but I can deal with it. Will wanting to be carried hasn't helped the matter!
Other than that, Michael is still working ALL THE TIME and everything else is the same.
Just plugging along :)
