I forgot to tell you.. my cousin had her babies! They were born on Friday 6 minutes apart (vaginally! woot!). She said she woke up around 4am and felt like she was peeing her pants, when it didn’t stop, she realized her water broke. They left for the hospital around 6am and the boys came one by one the right way at 8:53, 8:59, and 9:05am. :) They are

Mason Andrew

9:05 am

2lb 9oz 14″ long

Evan Patrick

8:59am

2lb 12 oz 15″ long

Jonathan Avery

8:53am

3lb 16″ long

Go here to see a picture of them! :) Oh, and please pray/send good thoughts their way. They will be in the hospital a minimum of 4-6 weeks. They have to weigh at least 4lb to leave the hospital. They are doing well at this point though, and breathing on their own, which is the most important thing.

 
 

Book!

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 3:01 pm

My book came in the mail today. The last page made me cry, it said:

“You’ll find that this world’s

a great place to begin,

but it could use some help —

which is where you come in.

So now, as my voice

burble-urps in your ear —

with a bump-thumpy sound

that is not very clear—

the words I am saying

you hear in your heart,

and know that I wish you

the very best start.

It’s a scrumptulous world

and it’s ready to greet you

And as for myself. . .

well. . .

I can’t wait to meet you!”

–”Oh the Places You’ll Go! A Book to Be Read in Utero” adapted by Tish Rabe from the works of Dr. Seuss

 
 

Blah

Not feeling to chatty lately. Kinda feeling out of it, and just a deep longing to be home cleaning my house, cooking foods that make the house smell of crunchy leaves and good eating. heh. I love fall, especially with my personal heater strapped to my belly, we like the weather.

People have started to refering to me as two instead of one. At first I thought this may be because I feel huge (though I hear I’m not). Now I just think it is because everyone else is coming to the realization that there is another human being trapped within my body. When ordering at the deli yesterday, the guy at the counter said, “you two are hungry huh?” Yes, yes we were. Weird.

I’m learning how to keep my blood sugar up. :) It makes me feel very nice. I love this non constant feeling of nausea. :)

I’m debating about asking to go back to my department. They’ve had me on a lifting restriction because of my threatened miscarriage way back at the beginning. I have an appt. on Monday and I want to ask to go back. I’m tired of going home early and the measly checks it brings me. I miss my friends/ acquaintances. I miss just the feeling of being around people and seeing neat things and guts hanging out of bellies. I miss the occasional person you get to take to surgery that is pleasant and nice. I miss helping the little babies. I miss doing what I do best– taking care of people. And I know that when the baby is here I won’t be able to work in healthcare for a while. I figure if I go back now, I’ll be able to have a bit of fun and do what I love. It will also help the time fly by seeing as it is October now. Leave me a note and tell me if y ou think it sounds like a good idea.

(The comments will be down until later tonight. Blogspeak is having some issues.)

Can I go home now? September 26, 2003

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 10:04 am

Today, I have the meeting with the dietician. I get to leave work at 11am. It’s about 10:10 now. Urgh. I hate killing time like this. Nothing to do.

When I leave, I’m going to call my mom and see if she wants to come in before she goes to work so we can go to the mall to look at maternity stuff. I have an abundance of stuff thanks to very generous people, but what I am lacking in the most are casual stuff. I only have one pair of maternity jeans. I would like at least one more pair and maybe a pair of corduroy khakis/khaki pants (obviously beggars can’t be choosers). It’s cold now and I need more casual stuff. I don’t want to wear the dressup stuff all of the time, I NEED comfort. :) My mom said “well you can dig out your winter stuff now” HELLO! Last winter I didn’t have this bulging belly! The sweaters will probably fit and my sorority sweatshirts will fit too. (I always bought those REALLY big) **sigh** It seems wasteful to buy clothes that will only be worn for four months, but really, what am I supposed to do?

It was 45 degrees this morning when I left for work. Highs today in the 60s. I love this weather. :) It’s supposed to get down to 38 degrees sometime this weekend. Brrr. Okay I’m going to keep surfing and praying that time passes quicker.

Oh and by the way, I’m feeling better with my new eating lifestyles. I’m keeping my blood sugars up and I feel good. Only thing is I’m hungry a lot so I’m going to have to talk to the dietician about how to fill up my belly without sending me into a carbohydrate coma.

 
 

Must See TV September 25, 2003

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 7:58 pm

YAY! I just remembered that it is Thursday and do you know what that means? The SEASON PREMIERE of FRIENDS and ER! **jumps up and down holding belly** I have to set the tape so Erich can watch Friends and then I’ll go downstairs and work on laundry while ER is on. I can’t wait till Scrubs and Good Morning Miami come back too. Then my life as a loser will be complete. I just love the fall. :)

((On a side note, I should really stop jumping up and down. I can feel baby girl swooshing up and down with me probably yelling “will you cut that foolishness out!” She must be getting big! My belly moves constantly and now she has discovered that it’s fun to kick my tailbone. Owee! As if my fingers aren’t sore enough. The sticking my fingers doesn’t hurt, it’s the tiny bruises that make it rough!))

 
 

I made it!
