A Bun or a Whole Loaf?

First things first! The boys had their last YMCA Galaxy Ramps soccer game this past Saturday. Jhett scored 2 goals! So we ended the season winning only 1 game. But they had fun anyway. Both boys are playing NFL Flag Football at the Y also. Of course, they are on the Dallas Cowboys! They are both 3 & 2. Sterling is a quarterback/wide receiver, & Jhett is a tight end/wide receiver. Next year Jhett will play tackle football! I can't wait! Sterling has his last Byrnes soccer game today against Thomas Hart. That was the only team that beat them earlier in the season. Then after soccer, Jhett has a football game.

Report cards went home last week. Excellent as always! Jhett had the following grades for the 1st quarter:

English : 97.5%
Math : 98.3%
Reading : 98.1%
Spelling : 99.1%

He made the All "A" Honor Roll! Good job Jhettman!

Sterling grades are as follows for his 1st quarter:

Reading : 98%
Language : 100%
Spelling/Phonics : 100%
Math : 100%
Social Studies : 100%

How awesome is that for a 5 year old in 1st grade!? You rock, Pud!

Yesterday there was no school. We met with Ms. Cox, Jhett's teacher for a parent/teacher conference. Ms. Cox said Jhett was a great student, a good citizen, & he absorbed information like a sponge. They had also taken a PACT test (yuck) & he scored the highest in the class in Math with a 99% tile. He was 2nd in English with a 98.5%tile.

On another front, we began fertility treatment on October 5th. I took Chlomid (fertility pills) for 5 days. Emily gave me 150 IU's of Bravelle shots in my hips for 10 days. Then 2 shots of Ovidrel 2 days before the insemination on October 18th. We have taken 2 pregnancy tests, & both have come back positive. We just have to wait & see how many their are. Dr. Teaffe doubled all of my dosages from when I had Jhett & Sterling. I feel pregnant. I have been very tired. The hardest thing has been trying to quit smoking. I am down to about 7 smokes a day from almost 2 packs a day. It is very hard! Emily & the boys are very excited about having a baby or babies in the house. We are telling ourselves that there are 4 of them, so when Dr. Teaffe tells us there are 2, we will be prepared!

We built a kitty pen outside & put all the cats out there. So at that is one less thing we have to worry about. The house doens't smell like the litter box anymore.

We have to go back to Dr. Teaffe's in Charlotte on November 2nd (Sterling's birthday) for blood work if I haven't begun my cycle by then. Keep us in your prayers!
