well this post is really of no report...
i am just tired of clicking to my blog and seeing the same thing.
.
we returned home from vacation saturday night and have pretty much been in recovery mode since. dustin started school this week, and all of the sudden i feel like a single mother.
i hate school.
every day i look forward to the 5:00 hour for dust to come home and for family time begin. by family time of course, i mean daddy/minie time and mommy/zone-out time...what? big deal.
he really is a gigantic help with EVERTHING, and the past few days he has been sorely missed. minie can be caught pretty much anytime of day banging and peering out the window yelling "daddy!". cute girl.... it's endearing and immensley depressing all at once. come novemeber he will have 3 girls missing and staring out the window for him..
*sigh*.....
.
let's see...
another little gem of an event, is this past weeks trip to labor and delivery.
barf.
that's how i feel about it.
tuesday afternoon around 4:00 i started having really painful contractions...very reminescent of early labor with minie. they weren't consistent, and stopped after about 2 hours. i tried to shrug it off, but after i continued to get them off and on for over 12 hours i finally caved and called L&D.. they of course insisted i come in with me being over 10 weeks early, and the on call doc to my OB advised me to be checked out as well. after a night long of pain and serious lack of sleep i reluctantly followed the medical professionals advice and went in. OF COURSE the moment i got there any and all contractions ceased, and not a one showed up on the monitor the entire 3+ hours i was being evaluated. i sheepishly was discharged with instructions to take it easy, eat healthier, and drink more water.
OOOKAY....
so glad i went to the hospital for that sound advice...
no, honestly it probably was for the best went in... if anything i got a nice 3 hour nap to the calming ho hum of machines, and thump-thump of sissy girls heart beat. i'm just really trying to forget the sobbing breakdown that also occured upon arrival when seeing my doctor in the actual L&D unit and his kind inquirment of why i was there. boy, did he get more than he bargained for with that simple (if not abesent-minded) question.
needless to say i wasn't ready to be back in there again... still not.
not yet.
.
so we've just been on the down and out the past couple of days, and more than anything this coolish weather is keeping my sanity. i love how the wind is blowing and how you can feel fall in the air... i'm ready.
.
that's really all.
as i told you, nothing to extroirdinare, but it's our life right now.
to make this post worth it,
here is the darling crazy woman we happily call ours.
.
goodnight.

That is so pathetic...you, Minie and new baby all looking longingly out the window! Would you move closer to me so we could hang out when the Big D is at school??
Sorry about the no fun trip to L&D. I had some nasty braxton hicks my last few weeks with Ben, but the nurses in my doc's office were not terribly sympathetic and only ever told me to drink water and put my feet up. Not very helpful. Sometimes a long, warm bath helped me though. Let me know if you want some down time and need me to watch Minie.
Glad you're okay, sad Dustin's in school (but that's also a good thing, right?), and so happy to see another cute picture of Minie. Love your blog.
Oh man, that's one way to add some excitement to your last trimester. I've been getting those nasty contractions too, they'd better be doing something or I'm going to get ticked.
