Last night the most horrifying thing happened. Ok perhaps not the most horrifying but it was weird and it made me a little faint. I was going to the washroom when I notice some tissue coming out of my you know what. I called the hospital and spoke to a maternity nurse and she told… Continue reading I Gave Birth Again

Ramblings About Babies
There’s a cleaning frenzy going on in my house. Jill and Mom have gone bleach happy in my house and boy am I thankful. Isaac is farting around in the bassinette and Silas is reading books and yelling “I LOVE YOU”. Interesting. Last night went by fast enough but mister poopy pants did not want… Continue reading Ramblings About Babies
A Few Words and Some PHOTOS!
Feeling slightly less blurry eyed after a nap. Although I woke to both of my children screaming, yikes., thank God for Grandmas. Although it was Grandma that was making Isaac scream…bum change. I feel like I’m two timing my children, that I’m not allowed to love them the same or at the same time. It’s… Continue reading A Few Words and Some PHOTOS!
He’s OUT!
I wrote this in the hospital last night but couldn’t get it up until now. We’re all home and doing well. I’m too tired to say much else, I’m so glad I was in a writing mood last night. I’m in the hospital right now writing this into my sister’s computer to upload. Funny how… Continue reading He’s OUT!
In Labour
6:27 pm Contractions getting harder to bear, it’s been three hours of them being fairly far apart but they’re starting to feel like they’re closing in on me. Each one makes me want to hold onto a wall, bend my knees with my legs spread apart and sway back and forth. Right now they seem… Continue reading In Labour
Little Ball of Sunshine.
I swear my son is a little ball of sunshine and he’ll forever light up a room when he walks in. I know I complain a lot about his short temper but when he’s not tantruming he really is this little ball of sunshine and he’s constantly making me smile…or pine for his delicious lips… Continue reading Little Ball of Sunshine.
Oh Well
I think I’m softening. I’ve definitely inherited my mother’s “oh well” personality. I still call her after bad dreams and I hear an “oh well, it was just a dream”. Usually when Silas is freaking out about something stupid I’m usually the same way, “oh well”. I’ve never felt bad for letting him cry at… Continue reading Oh Well
ONE WEEK LEFT!!!!
There’s a half hour left until I can gleefully go to dream land. I was up far too late last night so I’m feeling it this morning. We met some friends (Kristy and her hubby) at IHOP for breakfast. I had a massive meal but I still don’t really feel full. This baby is riding… Continue reading ONE WEEK LEFT!!!!
Foul Smells Invade My Home
My sister Jennie ever so kindly took my son this morning for a few hours so I could rest. I ended up only being able to sleep for about an hour or so but it was nice. I did miss Silas a little though. He came home very tired and went straight to bed. He… Continue reading Foul Smells Invade My Home
I Need The Plug
It’s 7:56 am and I’m blogging now because I want to go to sleep RIGHT when Silas goes to nap, I really need my nap today. Right now Silas is in his high chair politely snacking on Cheerios and kamut puffs. I’ve dressed him in a new outfit from Old Navy and he looks so… Continue reading I Need The Plug
Getting Warmer
Cleaning mood today. I’m getting stuff done. I told myself I wouldn’t nap because I need to keep going but now that I’ve sat I’m feeling myself fading. I need to stay awake, I wish I had some coffee. I know people will tell me to care for myself and not do housework but that’s… Continue reading Getting Warmer
1 Week and 4 Days Left
Well, the baby is still inside of me. I was hoping he’d come out yesterday but I guess he’s content to stay put for a while longer. He’s welcome to come out now, I’m feeling very warm feelings towards him and Brent’s feeling ready for him to be out too. Yesterday I tried some traditional… Continue reading 1 Week and 4 Days Left
So, I Have 9 Nipples
Nine nipples?? What an awkward title hey? You’re probably wondering what the heck I’m talking about?? Read on and you’ll know. Wow, it has been two years since my boobs have been leaking. They started the day before my first trimester was over with Silas and they haven’t stopped, not once. I went from an… Continue reading So, I Have 9 Nipples
Obscene Cuteness
I’m writing this between sniffles. I just finished reading my Sis-in-law’s blog called Impressions By Leanne. She’s been writing down her story of having a baby at 28 weeks, the bed rest before that, and the trials that came. She’s an amazing writer and I’m left sobbing after every entry. It’s really a good read,… Continue reading Obscene Cuteness
Jeepers Creepers!
Goodness my boy was a little grumpy-head this morning. Ever since I denied him his “sucky” this morning he’s been a fright. I hate it when I feel like I have to walk on eggshells around that kid just so I can have some peace and quiet! Right before his nap time, the only think… Continue reading Jeepers Creepers!
