my dr called, my uric acid level was high, not as high as in the past but she thinks it would have been had they checked it a few days earlier.    so the good is that I only need to take one med instead of two and should be ok in a day or two pain wise!   We’ll see what the ob says tomorrow about all of it.   still having some high glucose levels and other dr raised my morning insulin again, so we’ll see how that goes tomorrow.

didnt take Bo to the dr because he is acting ok and after some cold meds seems to be somewhat better.  Will put off his vaccines until he is 100% or as close to it as possible.  both he and I have belly aches today though, so hoping its just something we ate and not a stomach bug again.

I got caleb some shoes on clearance at Walmart for $3!    they light up so he’s a happy camper, I love getting a good deal!  I was sad they didnt have any in Bo’s size, they had a ton of clearance shoes though it was crazy.  I just couldnt find any in a size and price for Bo that I was willing to pay with our limited funds this week.    Today was the first time I shopped alone w/ Bo at Walmart that I didnt end up holding him and pushing the cart.  he did so much better than he has in the past.  Dont know if it was because I took a different toy to occupy him or because he’s , please God please, outgrowing his need to fight sitting in the cart.    for months he has done just as his brother did at this age and refuses to be strapped into the cart seat.   at the grocery store at least some places have the car carts which he is fine it, but at other stores I usually end up trying to hold him, push the cart and shop.    and being so pregnant it’s hard and painful to have to do that.   so I was very grateful he behaved for once today at the store.   To reward him I got him a medium sized bouncy ball, they had those huge ones and once he saw the thing full of them went nuts, I opted for a smaller one since it’s not warm enough yet to go out side and play with that kind and I dont want them destroying the house with it.  Caleb loved balls like that too and I think every trip to walmart w/ him at about this age and older we had to get a new one since we’d leave them outside and they’d deflate.   it’s cute to watch Caleb and bo playing with it together.  Caleb really is a great big brother and has been so helpful sometimes with Boaz.   I only hope having to compete w/ bo and a baby doesnt affect him too much.  It’s easier for me to devote time to caleb once he’s home from school since I Know I get lots of time alone w/ Bo all day and Bo plays so well independently.  so really they both get attention it’s just hard since Caleb’s at school all day, I can never make up for that time he’s away but I think he benefits from being in school more than he would from being home all day w/ Bo and I.
