Not much going on here for New Years Eve... We did run out to do shopping and get some things we needed... I did too much my ankles are so swollen... Baby did pretty good while out she enjoyed herself... We used the stroller so she could look around... We took her to taco bell too she loves her soft taco's... Otherwise nothing much going on... Have a Happy and safe New Years...

Well the week is over... And boy has it been an exhausting one... Between the holidays, being sick, work, pregnancy and not getting a lot of sleep i am just beat... I had my weekly doc visit... I was pulled from work so maybe i can get some rest in and get to feeling better... It still looks like i will be having a c section... I have my weekly visit next week with my doc and the other doc in the office that does the c sections will be there too... Told hubby the date and time so he can be there so maybe i wont feel so scared... I am nervous about it but baby is still in the same position so gotta do what we gotta do... Hubby just went out to get us subs from subway i was craving a blt with sweet onion sauce... Yummy...

It's Christmas Eve, i cant believe it... Where did the time go? We got most of the presents wrapped last night... I wrapped hubbys and let baby R help... I did the wrapping and i gave her santa stickers for her to put on the packages... She had so much fun... I need to add bows to babys presents, we tried to use all the shiney paper for her presents... I hope she has fun, I think she will... Hubby ran out for last minute stuff... We ran out last night for cold meds to walmart and i was surprised it really wasnt that busy... Go in for cold meds and somehow spent another 100 bucks on mostly stuff for baby... Hubby and I didnt realize how much we had all ready gotten her till i organized everything last night ... Hubby was like she is going to have over load and where the hell are we putting all this stuff lol... And thats just the stuff from us, that doesnt include the stuff from my family, his family etc... I think this year will be fun, last year baby didnt understand and her favorite thing was a 99 cent pandana bear teether... We never did get to make cookies, everytime we went to the store we forgot to look up what ingredients we needed... So maybe next year or maybe we will just make cookies one weekend for the hell of it... Plus my due date is coming up and i will be home with the new baby and R, and i just want to do so many things while home... I am looking foward to this... Oh well i am going to run... Going to relax a bit, still not sleeping well with this cold so naps are a good thing right now... Hugs to all and a very Merry Christmas, stay safe, have fun and enjoy your family time...

When it rains it pours... I have been coming down with a cold the last few days, well last night every time i tried to go to sleep i felt like i couldnt breath... I also the past few days havent gotten a lot of sleep, so that hasnt helped either... So instead of having hubby get baby R up and dressed i took myself back to the hospital at 5am or so to go to the er... I was in there till after 7am... They took some x-rays, listed to my chest, they were ok but i have been loosing my voice i cant cough up the crap in my chest so i got a breathing treatment... The doc said he wanted me on antibiotics just to be on the safe side with me so close to my due date... My sinuses are inflamed, my right ear is red the x-rays might have been clear but i am congested... My poor nose is so red and dried out... Thank the goddess for tissues with lotion in them or my nose would be in worse shape... Hubby is going to pick up my script right now so i am hoping by tomorrow i start to feel a bit better... I havent been around anyone who hasnt been feeling well but like mom said the weather has been weird, going in and out of stores, and touching shopping carts etc i could have picked up something...

I cant believe i have a cold... I hate being sick, and i really hate being sick around the holidays... I am hoping the cold will run its course quickly... I also had a migraine yesturday i havent had one of those in some time, so cold and migraine i was misserable yesturday... Then today I called to talk to the doc to tell her about how my stomach has been tightening and i have been having sharp pains down there... She told me to go to the maternity ward to be monitored... I was there for a few hours, then doc came in after one and then she checked me to see if i was dilating... Owie... And i wasnt dilated... And baby still is not head down... I think i am going to wind up having a c-section...

I havent wrapped any presents yet, that will be tomorrows goal after work... i have to stop at the store too on the way home just to get a few last minute things... Sunday and monday will be busy days... Sunday wont be too bad, its just going to my moms to exchange gifts and have dinner... Monday on the other hand, will start at hubbys dads for breakfast then gifts when everyone gets there... Then it will be over to his moms for gifts and i am not sure about food, and then maybe his grandmothers, hopefully it wont be too late by the time we are done because i have work the next day.... We shall see...

Merry Yule to all...

Today wasnt a very exciting day... I have been tired but in good spirits... I got a card today from another friend i havent talked to in a long time, it was good to hear from her and see how grow her 3 youngest are... I havent seen her kids in years and i was just amazed at how grown they are... Beautiful kids too... I havent sent out any xmas holiday cards, i just didnt think of it... Brain cells are not working too well lately lol... I also dont know how much longer i will be able to go to work i am hurting when i have to walk to the bathroom... My stomach gets so tight... 27 days till babys due date... Where did the time go?

I got a surprise today... Someone i went to school with found me thru classmates and emailed me i have been trying to track her down as well but she wasnt alway on classmates... Must be pretty recent... So i sent her an email and hopefully we can get in touch and chat on the phone... She now lives in west virgina with her dad... I also see our 20 year reunion is coming up... Ugh... i cant believe its been that long... Wow... I dont know if i would really want to go, i hated most of the people i went to school with, and a lot of the ones i did talk to i dont talk to now... Who knows...

36 weeks and counting... Had an ultrasound today to see how the baby is doing and how big she is... she is right now at 6lbs 11oz so they are not thinking of inducing me... But the baby is on her back covering where she needs to come out... So i might have to have a c-section if she doesnt go into position... I had a feeling she wasnt in the right position with the way i feel her... I never felt R this way... So I am a little nervous... The thought of surgery like that is a little mind blowing... I know lots of women have these done, but i am still scared if i have to have one... Everything eles looks great... You could even see that she has a lot of hair all ready... That old tale that if you have lots of heartburn your going to have a baby with a head full of hair, it might be true for this one... It was kinda neat to see all the fuzz sticking up on her head... I did have the lady make sure it was a girl, since the last ultrasound i had was at 18 weeks... So the name Emma Sophia is still good lol... I did have a list of boys names like last time just in case... Oh well i should get back to decorating our tree... Hubby is out putting lights up... We are sooooooooooooooooooooooo behind this year its not even funny... Next year hopfully we will be more on the ball... I think having the fake tree will help too... we never want to get it too early in fear of it drying out but now with a fake one we wont have to worry... LOL

Today was one of those days i just couldnt seen to get my butt out of bed... I think it has to do with the muscle relaxers the doc gave me too and being pregnant... I totally forgot about the afternoon with santa and i wish hubby would have reminded me and i would have gotten up earlier... We got there late and santa was getting ready to leave... Did get a pic with R and santa but she is crying she was scared of him... Next year i will make sure i get up early... R had fun with the kids though they were running around having a good time... We then went to kmart, got R more things, got for my niece and nephew and hubbys niece... We also decided we were getting a fake tree... Normally we have a real one and yes its nice not to have to store anything but this tree we got is nice, we dont have to worry about it falling over, anchoring it to the wall, putting water in it, picking pine needles out of the carpet for months after the thing has been removed... So tomorrow after all my appointments we will get to decorate it... We are really behind this year in getting the tree up etc... I dont know where the time goes... Oh well time to go relax and try to get to bed... hugs to all

Yeah its my weekend... I never thought today would end...I was dragging all day... I think it had something to do with the pills the doc gave me... I have a big knot in my back and it just kept getting worse... I couldnt sit back in anything it would hurt too bad.. Driving was a chore... So i went to see the doc yesturday and she gave me some muscle relaxers... Its helping but i can only take them in the evening... Ive been trying to keep busy... Ive been making things here and there... We've been working also on getting things organized for when the new baby gets here... One of my ebay auctions that i have been waiting for since nov 25th finally got here today... I was happy , it was a little tike horse that i knew R would love since the baby sitter has one too... I couldnt wait till xmas i gave it to her now... She has been zooming all over the house on it and had to have it up on the bed with her... It was so cute... We then fell asleep for a bit... I love when she falls asleep next to me all cuddled up.... I guess i am a little crazy i am looking forward to getting let go at work when they close the cc... I will be able to stay home for awhile with my girls... Oh well i think i am going to make a mini bag of popcorn and go relax... Hugs to all

I forgot how tired I could get towards the end... We went to the mall today to do some shopping, we made it to two stores outside the mall and then about halfway thru the mall before i was ready to fall asleep... I felt bad cause hubby wanted to look around and i was going to push myself but i just couldnt do it... When hubby went to walmart i stayed in the car with the baby... Ive been waddling around the house since we got home and there is so much to do and i just cant... Tomorrow i will work on the baby clothes... Hubby has tuesday off so i am hoping he can get some painting in and get the cardboard and papers burned... I am such a pack rat its not funny... But I'm working on that...We are limited on storage space and thats what hurts in the end... But then i go on a cleaning spree or figure out a way to make things work for the time being...

Ok i did way too much today... Last night hubby moved all the boxes out of the spare room that will be the new babys room, he then put the crib in there and put R's toddler bed together and then he moved the furniture around... How cute are toddler beds... Everytime i look at it i am like awwww its so cute, lol... So i spent a good chunk of today going thru boxes, going thru papers, etc... I washed two rubbermaid totes filled with baby clothes to go thru and organize and put in the new babys room... I am now working on my and R's laundry... My back is killing me... I just hope i sleep tonight i am so tired but it seems i have to pee every hour... Its about 6 weeks till my due date... I think i will be getting another ultrasound soon to see how big the baby is to see if i need to be induced early again... I think i am going to go relax for a bit... I am really tired... hugs to all

Things have veen ok here... I went to the doctors yesturday for my follow up... My protein levels are fine... I had a trace but not the +1 of the other day and the doc thinks they might have had a bad batch of sticks because they had 2 or 3 other women besides me that tested for protein... He said one yeah, two maybe more than that in one day, something is up... Plus i didnt have any of the other signs... So thats good news... Otherwise nothing much going on...I took yesturday off and i did nothing that i had planned... I wanted to go to the newage store, walmart, etc and i just stayed in bed till i had to get up... I think i just needed the time alone and rest... I was so tired this week... I am hoping that the bad weather we are supose to have come our way doesnt hit till after i leave work and i get home safe and sound... there was a tree knocked down due to the winds whipping around... Oh well nothing much eles to report, i am going to go drink my tea, write up a bit more crystal info then hit the hay... Hugs and love to all...
