Milestones and a little rant about women's rights!

The boys are changing so much!  Foster and Jaxson both have become successful thumb suckers...not sure how happy I am about it but it's pretty darn cute!  Jaxson has almost learned to turn himself onto his belly, he's really close I'd say by the end of the week he'll be rolling from back to belly!  Foster's torticollis is nearly gone, so thrilled!  His physical therapist said he will most likely be released at his next appointment!  As we were playing at PT there was a young girl participating in speech therapy in the next room.  We could hear the therapist singing notes then the girl repeating...well Foster decided he wanted to participate as well.  The therapist let out a note and Foster responded with his note right on cue!  Amy (Foster's therapist) and I looked at each other and busted out laughing...it was precious!

Both boys are becoming more vocal laughing, cooing, and ahhing and even responding to our baby talk!  I love it.  We are approaching the 4 month mark and I am quickly (and rudely) reminded that time is not slowing down.

Now for my little rant.  NBC Nightly News featured a story on Mississippi's Measure 26, the "Personhood" amendment, that sent me into oblivion!  Mississippi is attempting to pass a law that makes certain forms of birth control illegal, abortions illegal, and processes involved with the IVF and embryo storage illegal.  So basically ALL abortions would become illegal (ectopic pregnancy, rape, incest, other high risk/life threatening pregnancies), certain forms of birth control, and determine how IVF patients use their frozen embryos.  As an IVF patient I do not want the government to tell me what I can and cannot do with my embryos.  This is an extreme invasion of privacy on so many levels.  This entire legislation is based on religion and faith which should not be taken into account when passing laws, especially when dealing with something so intimate and personal.  Hello..separation of church and state mean anything to you?  Shame on you Mississippi for even considering putting this on the ballot.  You can read more about this story here, here, and here.  Okay, I think I'm done now.  Had to throw in a little controversy to make things a little more entertaining.
