It's been a while! I actually keep a weekly blog on Blogspot. It's mainly about my crafty stuff though. I'm not sure if I have enough interesting stuff to talk about to maintain to blogs ( Read more... )

Wow, almost a year since my last post! Ethan is getting big, he's 18 mts old already! My baby is growing up. Lots of stuff going on, but I'm not much of a blogger. :) I will update my pic though.

It seems I only post in my journal anymore to brag and show off Ethan. :) I can't help it. He's so supercute and so great to have around. Even when he's having a crying fit. He was 2 mts old on 12/10. He had his shots last week and he didn't like them one bit. His face got really red and he screamed really loud. But I just held and rocked ( Read more... )

Here are some new pics of Ethan. He is getting so big. Already over 11 lbs and he'll be 8 wks in 2 days. He smiles quite a bit. We have switched to using the Dr Browns bottles b/c he is so gassy. It's only been a couple of days, can't really tell if they're working or not. They are much nicer bottles then what we've been using though. Ethan ( Read more... )

By request. :) He is 5 wks 1 day now. Such a cutie. A good baby too. He can be a bit fussy, but I can't complain. Even when he's crying, he's cute. I am eagerly awaiting the night he sleeps for 4 hrs straight. Right now he's going 2-3 hrs. Normally 3 overnight. It's not really that bad and I'm not too tired. Some nights are worse than ( Read more... )

Well, I made sure I ended all my auctions last month so all packages could be out just in case I go into labor early. I had an eBay auction end on 9/15 and a GO on 9/22. I heard from the eBay person for the first time last Sunday (9/25), says she has been sick and forgot she bid on the pants. She says she'll get me out a money order that day, ( Read more... )

Well, went back to L/D yesterday and my blood pressure was fine. It was lower than my normal. Weird. All my lab work came back fine too. So, I still have to go for twice weekly appts and be on partial bed-rest until I deliver, but that's ok. It's better to be safe than sorry. It's not like I mind lying around ( Read more... )

Well, had my 37 wk appt today. Turns out my bp is high and I have protein in my urine. So, I got to go to the hospital for lab work and to labor and delivery to be monitored. I also have to save my urine for 24 hrs. So, I have this huge bottle to fill up with pee! Yay! :) The bloodwork looked good and after lying on my side for a few minutes ( Read more... )
