One Week To Go

Here we sit. By this time next week I will be checked into the hospital awaiting the arrival of baby #3. Wow. Nerves have set in some. Will the surgery go okay? Will the baby be okay and healthy? I am supposed to bring home a new baby and do what again? I am sure things will be fine and very soon none of us will be able to remember what life was like before this new addition became a part of us.

I will post here as soon as I am able too, likely sometime Wednesday or Thursday of next week (November 7 or8) with the news. Along with the first pictures of the newest family member.

Every day this week, I know I will be thinking, "This time next week.......". As much as I am ready to be done, there is still that odd feeling of knowing that soon this child, the one I have been carrying all this time, will be outside of me. We will have a whole new person, one we created and one that I carried all this time. What a miracle.

I may post some more this week, who knows. I get reflective at times like this. If not, you can expect one more belly shot up later this week at the very least. Oh and likely pictures of the kids on Halloween.

Soon and very soon, we are going to meet the baby.

Sometimes There Are No Words

Last night I met a new friend. Let me preface this by saying I have made exactly ONE new friend in the last ten years. This makes number two. My Babycenter and Blogging friend Amanda , was having a conference in KC. We made plans to meet up. I felt a bit odd. Here I was making plans to meet someone I only knew from the Net. But Mark thought it was perfectly great and even said for me to stay out as long as I wanted. He said it was not as if I was meeting up with someone I saw often. Stay out and talk and have fun. So I did. I made plans to meet with Amanda. I knew we had a lot in common. Both from the board and from reading her blog. I knew she was someone who if she lived closer to me we could hang out. But I was a bit apprehensive. Here was someone who only knew me through the computer. So many what if's , right? Mark was actually the one who said I should meet with her, if only for a little while. So, I picked Amanda up at her hotel and off we went to Fooleries. Great place to ...

Why Choose It?

Judy posted a comment about being jealous at two weekends away from the kids. About how she figured it would be a long time before she got that chance. I have to admit, I thought better her than me to have the new baby. After our two weekends away and Mark joking that it was his ploy to convince me to not have anymore, I have to say.....I think it worked. After thinking about it and being able to get away so easily because the kids are bigger, I could not help but think, why go back and do it all again? If you had a choice between going out of town for the weekend or being stuck, tied down to a newborn who was feeding from your breasts every two hours and waking every three ,which would you choose? To which one might say why ever have kids at all.....fine. I have TWO. I have done it TWICE. Not only that, but for anyone who cares about it, I have one of each. One is almost seven, the other almost three. Granted Davis is not potty trained yet, but he does change his own diaper sometimes...
