Hello Foot, Meet Mouth

Yea, I really helped myself with my last blog post. *insert eye roll* I was bragging about how wonderful everything was going with this pregnancy, and low and behold. BAM!! I stuck my foot in my mouth and ended up in Labor & Delivery. The reason? Surprise, surprise... Carter was trying to make an early appearance! I think I have four of THE most impatient children and no clue where they get it from. ;)

So after 7 hours in the hospital, a shot of terbutiline, some IV fluids, etc..etc... I got to go home extremely exhausted, but thankfully, still pregnant. It also reminded me that I need to get on the ball, seriously. Its not like trying to have my babies early is a surprise for me, so I'm trying to figure out why I've procrastinated on getting prepared for Carter. Luckily, I didn't have THAT much left to do, and I'm almost done (now).

Hopefully I'll be pregnant for another 2 weeks (plus) and next time I make a trip to L&D I'll be far enough along to have him and not have labor stopped. I am very excited to meet our newest addition, however, I think I can't wait just a bit longer until he is fully "baked". :)

Update On Me!

Wife, mother of 3, pregnant with number 4, freak ice storm, etc etc, I can come up with all sorts of excuses to explain why I haven't blogged in a while. The truth is, I've honestly just let it slip my mind! Don't worry though! I've come up with quite a few topics and can't wait to get blogging about them!! Oh how I've missed this!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, an update on whats going on with us! :) Rileigh is doing great in school, she'll be the big F-I-V-E in March!! Gavin just turned 3 on the 23rd, he can identify all his letters and count to 15! Logan is a walking, jabbering, but completely adorable monster. His vocabulary is excellent, even his meow has a profound pronunciation. (LOL)

I will be 35 weeks pregnant tomorrow and I'm honestly expecting a baby within the next 3 weeks with my history, however, you never know!! He could extend his arms and refuse to come out until 42 weeks! So far the pregnancy has been great, no pre-term labor, no magnesium sulfate and steroid shots, no repeat gestational diabetes. If it wasn't for the constant head butts to the cervix and toes in the ribs I would probably question my pregnant status. I am definitely enjoying my last pregnancy though, it really has flown by so fast. Its definitely bittersweet, but we're a complete family and I think four is just our number. :)

Now that you're all updated, be on the look out for a few things that have been on my mind lately! :) :)

Day 14 of 30

Sorry I've been so MIA dear blog! Life is hectic as a pregnant mommy of 3. :) I'm just going to pick up where I left off and make sure I finish the rest of it!!

Day 14- A picture of you and your family

This is pretty sad... I don't have a recent one. :( I'm usually the one behind the camera and we haven't been anywhere in a while to take one of us all together. I think that just because of this, I'm going to find a way in the next couple of days to get one!! I'll be back to post it in a new post when I get one.

I know I can't be the only mommy so busy taking pictures of her children that she forgets to take one of herself WITH the children, oh yea, and that hubby guy. hahaha

Day 13 of 30

Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently

I honestly can't even get into this, because this person hurt a "friend" in a way NO WOMAN should EVER do. It would honestly go something like this...

Dear backstabber,

KARMA.

Have a nice life,

Heather

I know its wrong to hang on to such negative feels towards a person, and I'm really not. I don't dwell on what she did to hurt me and I rarely think of her and like to think she never existed. My "letter" says it all. I can let go and move on, because thats what karma is for. It means I don't have to lift a finger, it'll take care of it for me.

Day 12 of 30

Day 12- How you found out about blogs and why you made one

I use to blog on Myspace a bit, and then I found out there were whole sites for it. When I joined Justmommies.com, I loved looking through and reading the blogs I found in the signatures. Eventually I made my own and I'm working on getting in the habit of posting more. I have a hard time of thinking of topics, I'd like to post stuff that people actually want to read. :)

Day 11 of 30

Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends

Just 2, and they're old. I miss these ladies, life is so busy it's easy to lose touch. :(
