Busy morning!

This morning was busy!  First, we had an appointment to see little sister.  Then we went to HEB and finished the morning at the Austin Aquarium.  I only saw the nurse this morning so I didn't have a wait at all.  While pregnant with William and Wade, the average wait was 2 hours to see Seeker.  Therefore, I set up all of my appointments for my entire pregnancy at the first appointment.  I signed up for an 8:00am appointment for every appointment.  This also allows Mike to easily make it to every appointment too.  Today was just a nurse visit but we still got to see our little girl.  The nurse said that she is measuring right on track!  I am 21 weeks and 4 days today. 

The picture is sideways but I don't know how to change it.  You can see her face in the picture.  At the last appointment, she measured in the 90%.  Seeker said she would probably be in the high 8s if she continued to measure this way.  They said babies grow in spurts so this time she was only 33%.  Our next appointment is a big 3D/4D ultrasound appointment!  Hopefully we get some awesome pictures!
 
 
Then we had to make an emergency trip to HEB.  We ran out of milk this morning.  Milk is a MUST HAVE in our house at all times with William.  It's his comfort.  Every time he falls or gets upset, he wants milk.  For a lot of his meals, he mainly has milk.  Most of his calories come from milk.  It's definitely a battle in our house!  As a family of 4, we go through 3 gallons of milk a week!
 
 
I wanted to just go home after HEB but some how William remembered that I had something about going to the aquarium.  I wasn't very impressed the first time we went because a lot of the tanks were empty.  I really enjoyed it this time though.  It was a rainy morning so the aquarium is a perfect place to run to let the boys to do something for a short time. 
 
 
 

 
I love Wade's expression in this picture.  William is getting pretty good at pointing out the animals/ fish.  He had just informed me that there was an eel in the corner.

In the bird exhibit.  William liked the paper on the ground more than birds!
 
 
 

People often ask how far apart the boys are in age.  They often ask "How tough is that" or some other similar question.  I don't think that it is any tougher than having 2 kids in general.  I'm sure there would still be hard times even if the boys were 5 years apart.  However, they always have a buddy since they have a brother that is so close in age.  At least once a day, they get into a giggling fit like this together.  I hope they laugh and get along like this forever!
