Oh wow alot going on!

So I have been bad about keeping my blog updated. I have a sleeping baby so I will take a quick minute to do this instead of some other pending thing. The month of January was long here in Wyoming. ( At least for me)Nola got sick New Years weekend and has been up and down....but mostly down ever since. Then about a week and a half ago Devin came down with a fever and really bad cold. He has since started feeling better but Nola was still coughing with a bad runny nose. Now before anyone starts to judge little ole me she happened to cut two teeth this month so I just thought the runny nose was maybe part of that and her not feeling well. Well after a month of fighting I gave in to my mom intuition and took her to the Doctor just knowing he would say "paranoid mom she is fine go home". I really only took her out of frustration . I had done the cough meds, the Tylenol, the humidifier, the rub on the chest and still no baby back to normal. Well he listened to her chest and said " she has Bronchiolitis and she needs to be on antibiotics. If that doesn't work a chest x-ray and blood work will be the next step." So here we go. She has finished her meds and is acting a lot more like my Nola girl, but we will see what the next few days show.
Mean while Devin is better and is all over the state this month helping the high school wrestler's at all the tournaments. The practice is still going so well and it is fun to see him in action. A friend of mine said just the other night " I called my mom cause I was having trouble walking and she said call those Simpson boys I hear they are pretty good." It made me smile. I am still beaming with pride for him and all the hard work on his part it took to get here. We also found out last month that home ownership is going to happen a lot faster then we thought. We are starting paper work this month and have already scouted a few places we want to look at in person. We are so excited! I sound childish but I lay in bed and dream about what having my own place will be like.
Everything is going well so far with me and baby. We have our anatomical survey on the 15th and I am so excited to see the growth and of coarse to found out the sex of our baby. If it's a girl obviously we are set, but if it's a boy we have a little shopping to do. We are still out to lunch on names so we are waiting until we only have to come up with one. We are nerds, but we can't agree so far!
Well that does it. Baby awake and crying. We hope you are staying warm and well.
