At the Hospital

These are some of the people who came to see me at the hospital.

Blue Nose Monster

This past Sunday was the first time the children were with us for the weekend since Abby was born and I had planned on going to church as a family. When I finally rolled out of bed at 9am, thinking that two hours would be plenty of time to get myself and the baby ready for church, I was greeted by a Blue Nose Monster. Suddenly my morning had become way to short.



Was I upset, yes! But I read some advise from a mother that when your child does something like this make sure to take a picture because it will be very funny later in life.

Nesting...


I have officially started nesting. With the kids gone to their mothers for the weekend I can just do what I want and not have to worry about keeping them entertained. Today I cleaned the bathroom and have started to tackle the bedroom where the crib will go (Jason has a pile of stuff that he has always kept in that corner because right now we have no storage space). I think it is kinda ironic that right at the point where I can not get enough of cleaning and throwing stuff away I have this giagantic ball on my front that makes scrubbing, lifting and climbing rather dificult.

I can bring Abby home!!!


Jason and I finally bought a car seat for the baby. We had agreed on one a long time ago but have never actually bought it. I guess since I'm full term Jason finally decided that it would be a good idea to get it... We chose the safety first alpha omega elite because of the reviews from consumer report and it was the car seat the family had when I was a nanny and I loved it.

The man cold...

My children and I have been passing something around for a little over a month now and last week Jason actually caught what we have been fighting. Both Corben and I have ear infections and all three kids and I have a very prodctive cough as my doctor described to me. Well all along I have not been able to take a day off to not make dinner or go to bed before the kids or sleep in. Heck Corben and I even ended up spending 3 night together so I could give him cough medicine when I got up to take my own. Well... I love my husband very much, but this is seriosly what I have had to deal with for the past week.
