I really just want to sleep. My doctor gave me Ambien, but really, is that good for the baby? I am a little too worried to take it..what if I become a sleeping pill junky? I can't eat anything without my stomach getting upset and I am never hungry anyway. I have less than 35 days left, and all I can think about is getting to day 0, not really ( Read more... )

Happy Day-Before-Turkey Day, the eve of the fowl slaughter. I am planning on getting my turkey on, just as soon as Mike gets home from work, we load the car and head to my grandma's. We always eat out so all we had to do this year is buy some bagels, cream cheese, and fruit for breakfast tomorrow. Easy as pie, um....pie....

So the doctor says that Andrew is perfectly able to be completely potty trained, it just doesn't bother him to feel wet and he has better things to do and that I need to go "Spartan" on him. Which yes, does refer to the opening scenes of The 300. So I the doctor said give him an ultimatum, either his is a big boy and will not wet his pants or he ( Read more... )

Well, this hurricane thing is a rude awakening to living in Houston! Lucky for me Mike decided to preempt any hurricane activity by buying every cool gadget Gander Mountain sells "just in case" and during Tropical storm Gustav, bought a generator and 30 gallons of gas. My house was dark and full of bugs (cause you have to leave something open ( Read more... )

I have had complete placenta previa and been worried about it for 2 months, then last night I started spotting and cramping, went to bed, woke up fine, soon as I got up, the cramping started again, so I finally went to the ER, and even though I was pretty sure that I was crampy because I felt so good the day before and did way to much to the point ( Read more... )

We are more or less moved in. I am excited to say I am 9 wks. pregnant, great for me, bad for the band. I am struggling through the early trimester problems and trying to get the house unpacked and keep the kids entertained.

These are other houses that are my floorplan. My house looks more like the second picture, but it has red brick and white square Austin stone above the porte-cochere(covered driveway) and the entryway, not so many tall trees though...

I am packing boxes, we aren't moving until first week of June, but I am not sitting on my butt and then spending a week in a mad dash without sleep. Anyways, it is as good a time as ever to go in the kids rooms, pack some stuff and chunk the junk. Kids accumulate so much trash, McD's toys, broken toys, stuff they never play with ,and let me tell ( Read more... )

OK my band has chosen the country and western smash-hit-of-a-name, Palomino Road ( I got the Road thrown in there, we were almost The Palominos.) It is at least a good name for a country band, you would guess country from the sound of it. I still like The Secret Life of Prawns...but sometimes it is majority rules... Anyway, we will have our 3rd ( Read more... )
