advice

I love when my sisters give me pregnant advice or whatever. And what I love about it is how different they say the advice.

me:  so im waiting for my midwife to call. but this baby hasnt stopped moving for 2 hours. he never goes more than like 5 minutes.
 maybe soon.

 Emily:  AHHH!!!

I am so excited to see this boys face!!!!

   Still no contractions?

 

 me:  no. but hes clawing at me.

 

 Emily:  He's just getting all situated! You doing all that squatting crap they tell you to help him?

 

 

 

I don't think I'm up for any squatting crap tonight, but I'm sure I will use that advice at some point.

Three cm

My midwife told me today that I am 3cm dilated and that I need to be napping and sleeping a lot. I kinda like where she is going with this. I think she also meant to tell me that my husband needs to be giving me neck rubs. I'm gonna go see what I can do about that one.

"I still have a crush on you" -Mike (getting up for work at 4:30am)-

Also, Matthew has been so sad and so emotional and so touchy this past month. It was getting long to where I was kinda crying at night because I really had no idea what else to do with him to make him happy. Welp, come to find out he has a double ear infection after finally taking him in today to the Doctors. Poor kid, my gosh. I wonder how long he has had it. Those are the worst. It can only get happier from here.

Happy Holidays

I hope everyone had some really Happy Holidays. We spent the Christmastime with both sides of the family at some point. It was so nice. I am extremely thankful for wonderful families on both sides. Makes for no family stress. AH! I can't tell you how thankful I am for that. No mean or crazy parents or in-laws.

The New Years we spent with great friends, just eating great food and staying warm and cozy.
And well, now it is 2013. I have no resolutions and no expectations, but God spoke clearly to me last night and today about what this year will bring for me and no specifics past that.

- Challange
- Servanthood
- Laughter
- Joy
- Pruning
- Worship

Very excited to bring in the year with another son! Due within a week, I can hardly believe it.
