I’m so excited and nervous….
Everyday when Dustin gets home from work we have “couch time”. It’s the time when we share our day with each other. Today Dustin’s eyes lit up as I started to tell him about my day. When I asked him why he was smiling so big he said “I look [...]
After thoroughly embarrassing myself and my husband in my last post (*Update 5/5/08 - I deleted that post after too many of my husband’s coworkers mentioning to him that I seemed like a crazy woman*), I swore I would never post emotionally again.
Yet, here I am. An emotional poster and an emotional eater. Awesome.
I’ve been [...]
What’s worse than being awakened by the need to fling yourself over the toilet and wretch non existants?
Realizing that you have 20 minutes to shower, dress, wake the kids, dress the kids, feed the kids and drive 15 minutes to your OB apt.
What’s worse than that?
Showering, putting on make up, dressing, sweetly waking the kids, [...]
The kids have been sick for two weeks now. The combination of fussy kids exploding with snot and a mommy sans coffee for 3 days has left me house bound. Well, I did manage to get a fantastic sunburn yesterday doing yard work, but other than that I’ve been home a lot.
What’s the biggest change [...]
I haven’t had coffee for 3 long, head-aching days! During these three LONG days I also haven’t showered, nap more than I play with the kids, have had to take Tylenol twice a day for head aches, have been really snappy and with all this said…searching for my bra at this point would be [...]
Remember that scene in Apollo 13 when they had to shut off all power and choose only the few things that required energy? To be dramatic…I am that space ship. I feel that huge, that sick, and that hopeful. I haven’t had any energy lately.
I finally figured out what the books [...]

Thanks to all of you that left me such sweet congratulatory comments. Y’all are the best!
I’ve been feeling really tired lately, like the “I think there is something wrong with me” tired. I mentioned it at a playdate with my friend Jodi and she said jokingly “Maybe your pregnant”. No, that couldn’t [...]

I went back to work today. It really wasn’t that bad. I missed the kids like crazy, and almost got in two wrecks racing to see their faces after work, but other than that, it was pretty uneventful.
I think we were all ready for it this time. Well, maybe not Dustin. He’s [...]

Maddie and Christian have been going to bed at 6pm and waking up 15 hours later at 9am! AND, they still take their 1 hour morning nap AND their 1 hour afternoon nap! AND my house is clean! AND my Google reader is all read! AND I’m showered and have heels on! AND my laundry [...]

I’ve been finishing up paperwork, W-2’s, pointless OSHA tests and performing competencies, to get my nursing career back on it’s feet. After spending weeks interviewing day-cares and babysitters, I think I’ve finally found one. (More about that some other time)
Anyways, today I came home from the paper trail and the babysitter told me [...]
