I had some bananas that were on their last leg yesterday so I decided to make some banana bread. I also had some blueberries in the freezer so I thought, what the heck? I threw the blueberries in and made blueberry walnut banana bread. Delicious!

I had a follow up with my Napro doctor on Saturday. She wanted to check on how things were going with the Zo.lo.ft as well as do an exam to check for cervical eversion. She did find an eversion, she said a stage 2. She treated it with some silver nitrate and I go back in about a month for another treatment. She said that, along with stress could be what's causing my constant white stickers. I'm also continuing with the vaginal progesterone for 10 days each cycle starting on p+3. The progesterone has already made a huge difference! I had my first green sticker a few days ago in almost 6 months. Wahoo!

While she was doing her exam she also noticed a small polyp. She said it appears to be on my cervix but could possible be in my uterus and just sticking out (she could move it which is why she thought this). She told me to try not to worry too much about it. She is going to see if it is there at my next appointment with her. Apparently it is possible that it will just come out with my next cycle. If it is still there, I will have to make an appointment with my GYN to see about having it removed and tested. She begged me not to worry about it but that's not really in my nature. I'm trying hard, I really am. I only did one quick search on Dr. Google and then made myself stop. If you could spare a prayer or two for me that would be very much appreciated.

I had p+7 bloodwork yesterday. Along with the usual hormone stuff she is checking thyroid, vit D, and a whole bunch of other stuff. I'm actually praying it all comes back horrible. Although the Zo.lo.ft is helping, I know there is something bigger going on. I just need the bloodwork to prove it so I can get a doctor to treat it.

My sweet Mary-Grace and Hannah will be 18 months and 6 months in just a little over a week. I cannot believe it! Expect a post dedicated to each of them soon.
***********************************************************************************
Hannah cut her first tooth the other day. 5 1/2 months old and she already has a tooth! I know all babies are different, but Mary-Grace didn't get hers until 8 1/2 months so it wasn't even on my radar. Hannah was extremely fussy for a few days and then she bit down on my finger and I could just feel that little razor blade poking through her gums. Crazy!
***********************************************************************************
I decided to try to introduce a bottle to Hannah last week. I pumped and had K give it to her right away while it was still very fresh and warm. Kid was not having it! She refused to suck and spit out any milk that happened to make it into her mouth while making a nasty face. Our 6 year anniversary is next month and I was thinking it might be nice for K and I to go to dinner, just the two of us. We haven't done that since before Mary-Grace was born, so a year and a half. I think it's time. :) We also have a wedding to go to in January and it's no children. It's one of my best friends so I really want to go. But obviously this kid has to take a bottle. Any suggestions on how to get her to do it?

After having my fancy pants camera for over a year, I have finally decided to try to learn how to use it manually. I'm just teaching myself (using the girls of course) and winging it. I'm surprised at how awesome some of my pictures are coming out! Well, awesome for a newbie. :)
