Monday!

Well if I have ever had a bad day today would be it. I could not get motivated this morning & I felt so sick. Got caught in all kinds of traffic on the way to work.....school, slow/idiot drivers, even a wreak. Once I get to work I sigh (15 minutes late by now). While walking to the time clock I walk out of my shoe & fell. Not just fall but I slide across the floor on my knees (a Michael Jackson move of sorts). Okay by now I am sick as a dog, late for work, embarrassed beyond belief, and have bruises on both of my knees & shins. I just hope that tonight I can just relax and watch a movie. I would have a drink to go with that movie but I can't so I will just have to settle.

News

Just read the news about the death of Ted Kennedy. I will pray for his family and friends. As for me and my emotions we are torn. I am sorry to hear of the death and my heart goes out to them but I am truly scared of the repercussions of it, I also disagree with a lot of what is being said about him. I don't think that he should be idolized the way the he is for the things that he has done.

Baby B

Well I had my first OB visit today. I was amazed that I actually heard and saw it's heartbeat. I loved being able to actually see something. Seeing the little heart "beat" though and it made me warm & fuzzy. I was given good news about it.....the fact that they were able to pick that much up at only 6 weeks dropped my miscarriage risk from 35% to 5%. It actually seems different to me because this baby B was planned. I would love to upload the pics but I can't get the scanner to cooperate...I am severely technologically challenged (maybe if I let Scarlet & Anna try they can get it to work LOL).

Thursday

First:
Good morning to all. I want to start by telling everyone what we did this morning. Yesterday Scarlet shoved Kleenex up her nose. My mother-in-law tried to get it all out but couldn't. Well as busy as we were yesterday evening I had forgotten about it, Scarlet was playing as is nothing was wrong. This morning about 5:15 she woke up screaming, well like a ton of bricks it hit me that I had forgotten. I wake Michael up and we get her out of the bed, grab the tweezers, the bulb sucker, and a flashlight. In the mean time we wake Anna up which is a good thing since she could hold the flashlight. To make a long story short it took three people and 30 minutes to retrieve a piece of Kleenex about an inch long out of her nose. How she managed to shove it that far up there is beyond me.

Second:
I have been following Brandi's blog for a week or so now and I love it. It has some political content that is very true and very real. I have actually posted a link and a quote from her blog on my facebook page. She really does her homework. It is really good if you haven't read it you should just follow the link from my blog.

Third:
The news is in Michael and I are pregnant. Since this one was our first planned pregnancy we already have the names picked out. To tell you the truth I am having mixed feelings of excitement and nervousness (both of my other kids were oopses). We have decided that if this one is a boy I am getting fixed. If it is another girl we'll try one more time but 4 is the limit and I am getting fixed (yes it's my decision to get fixed & I have no problem with it).

Picture Post


I thought this picture was so cute. My poor m-i-l &f-i-l, they are surrounded by girls (oh the hormones). They are of course my 2 (ages 17 mos. & 9 yrs.) and my three nieces (ages 2 1/2, 5, and 7 yrs.)
