I haven't written in awhile because frankly there hasn't been much fun to write about. BUT I'll have to say things are looking up for us at the moment! We've been bogged down with life stresses that brought our spirits down a bit...and can honestly say I don't think I've ever been so stressed out in my life. WOW, certainly not what I was expecting for this pregnancy. We've kinda given up on a couple issues and actually feels good to just let it go. We've been battling with Nissan about covering the cost of some repairs for my car. We lost the battle and it's OK...it's done and it feels good for it to be over with. My gallbladder seems to behaving better these days but have developed some heart fluttering and tachycardia... awww just put it on my tab! When thru bunches of blood tests and an EKG and everything a.o.k! Stress probably. Relieved to know it's nothing more serious! We're sending our tax audit stuff out on friday and what-ever happens happens! Just send us the damn bill...we don't care anymore...can only worry about one thing so much. Maybe we can help the federal deficit by 1 millionth of a dollar. We'll be doing our part to dig our country out of this whole.
OHHH the baby...this blog is suppose to be about the baby! Poor guy has been second fiddle while we've been digging out of these issues. Good news, he's first fiddle now! We're continuing to get his room ready! We got a mattress from mama Jane and papa Joe for Christmas; thank you! Jess gave us her snap-n-go car seat and stroller set along with a bunch of toys; thank you! We found 2 additional car seat bases on craigslist for the snap-n-go for 20 bucks! So now myself, Mike and Nannie & Papa can toot this guy around town. Bought a box of diapers, wipes, crib sheets and a few other essentials that make us feel like real parents. We're very excited about his arrival and hoping for smooth sailing here on out! We've had our share of challenges lately and in some way I'm sure it's the universe preparing us for the challenges of parenthood. We're up for it so bring it on!
Hey Kim, sounds like it has been quite the roller coaster ride...isn't that just life? haha. Have you seen the movie "Elizabethtown" ?
ReplyDeleteOne of the things the dad said was, "If it wasn't this, it'd be something else." so, there you go.
I'm not sure what your due date is?? but must be coming up in the next couple of months or sooner.
Well, I am sending lots of love and hope it goes smoothly and happily. Hugs
