35 weeks-Can I make it?!?!?!?



Don't get me wrong...I love being pregnant!!! But working and being pregnant is not fun right now. My stress level is way to high; my patience is growing thin and I just have an overall bad attitude. I think I need to move to England so I can be on maternity leave already like Vicky! I know that if this baby comes before the due date it will be because of work. I never had any contractions with the other two kids...not really even braxton hicks (maybe a handful in the last week or so). This pregnancy I have had quite a few periods of contractions and painful ones at that. I notice they always hit if I have over done it or I am stressed by work. My dr. appt next week could be interesting as I have never dilated prior to going into the hospital and having medications to start me dilating. Literally never even a 1/2 or 1/4 of a centimeter!!! I have my group B strep test next week...I will be interested to see if I have dilated.

Just don't know how much longer I can hang in there and do both...something has got to give. I either need to stop working or have this baby!!!!

First Day of School!!!




Today was Madelyn's first day of Kindergarten and Christian's first day of Preschool (outside of the preschool he always had at daycare)!

Both kids had a wonderful time although when you ask them...all they did was play!!! Madelyn says her favorite part of school was recess. The playground was definitely not their friend as they both came home with scraps and bruises. Christian agrees with recess being his favorite and adds playing with his friend Austin!!! Austin and Christian are inseparable. They are best friends, they have gone to daycare together ever since we moved down here. They are quite rambunctious when they are together!!!! Austin's mom and I decided that after preschool together this year...they will never let them be in the same Kindergarten together next year.

When I asked the kids what you learned at school today, Madelyn said "the school rules". Christian said "I really didn't listen!!!!" God help that teacher!!!!!

Madelyn said she made a lot of new friends; Christian said "no, I just played with Austin, I don't need more friends!"

Well now I got to figure out what the kids are going to wear for school pictures...who has school pictures on the second day of school!?!?!?!?
