This week

I wrote this on Sunday....

It has been quite the week.  I had a sibling in the hospital and there was lots of frustration around that.  Then I went to the doctor and she said everything looked on track for me to deliver near my due date.  Umm...I was sort of hoping that the baby would come sooner then that I am pretty sure that he will. But who really knows.  I have never made it to my actual due date so maybe to average things out this kids will come a few weeks late.

Everybody has thoughts on when I can or can not deliver.  The biggest thing is to make it through the work week and then I will feel better about having this baby.  Then somebody thought I was being induced this week.  Not sure where exactly that came from but then she questioned why I was still working if I was having a baby next week.  Because the plan is to work until I deliver.  12 weeks goes way too fast I don't want to spend one minute taking time off if I am not able to spend that time with my baby. 

Thanks to an amazing generous friend we now have a car seat.

My parents are taking the kids to the cabin tomorrow.  I guess I need to pack them.  They will be home Friday and then my parents will be gone Saturday-Saturday.  My mom said I can't have the baby while they are in Montana.  Actually I can.  :)


I worked at the hospital Sunday.  I will probably start picking up shifts there again in October. I am going to miss it.  I really like the hospital.

Random Thoughts

I sometimes wonder where to draw the line in this whole blogging thing.  I could make us look like the "perfect" family or I could deal with all of our disappointment and make everybody think that we quite possible have the worse life ever.  Or maybe there is a middle ground somewhere that I have yet to find in this blog.  Today was a rough day.  Don't get me wrong I am so excited that everybody around me is having babies.  But for some reason today I was caught up in the losses all over again.  I am wondering when it stops.  Maybe it never does.  Maybe it will be a life time of wondering what if I would have gone full term.  Several people have asked when (or if) we are going to have another baby.  I am not sure.  Sometimes that answer is yes and sometimes it is no.  But one thing is for certain it isn't right now.  Really I don't need to have a ton of kids to fill some void.  I love my two kids and if that is all ...

Family News

What a weekend.  I blew out a tire 5 minutes into the trip and then had to switch out vans we hit some snow but nothing major.  The kids had a blast playing with the boys and although the bishop spoke too long at the ceremony the wedding was nice.  The reception was nice and the kids ran around with their cousins and Lee and I were able to catch up with everybody on their lives.  I am glad our kids are older and don't need constant supervision.  Several of Lee's cousins have kids in the 12-24 months age range.  That age is so hard and there was no way they would be able to run around with out adult supervision.  It was nice to get some family news like one cousin is a polygamist and another is getting married very shortly.   Another is traveling the world and another has made their home in the mountains.  One cousin is trying to qualify for the Boston Marathon and another is just trying to survive her husband's major depression.  Sev...

February

February was a tough month both mentally and financially.  The light at the tunnel was Phoenix.  Kids had a blast and it was great way to end an otherwise crazy chaotic month.  My goals were blah.  We paid off  more credit card debt then I though but I didn't sew as much as I wanted and I didn't run as much as I should have.  I also didn't read or declutter as much as I planned to.   Although I did reach my goal for losing weight.  So not a total loss. At some point I will file taxes and write a check to the state of Idaho.  I keep putting it off for several reasons.  At some point we will a check from FSA and our gap insurance.  Although a ten page EOB probably will take a while to get through. I think it was just one thing after another and I never felt like I gained my footing.  Maybe because I worked more.  Which lead to more in savings.  Still not where I want to be.  But better then it coul...
