Postcards from MinnesotaThings can get pretty "wacky" in the land of 10,000 lakes! June 20 Yay for babies!So, I hardly ever post on here anymore, but I just wanted to post a quick little blurb about my new little guy! James Thomas was born on June 5th via repeat c section at 9:24am. He weighed 10 lbs 12 oz and was 23 inches long! Yes a big boy indeed. Pretty happy now about the whole c section thing.
 We're doing pretty well and I'm home now until August 4th. I really thought I would totally be lost and just like a first time mom again having a boy and all, but really it's kinda like riding a bike. Except your first bike had a banana seat and a basket on the handle bars and now it's a ten speed. Make sence? Maybe I'll get back into this blog, but I've mostly been blogging on myspace these days. Hope everyone is doing well! Here's a pic of him and one of him with his sister.
peace and love,
Boots
 January 30 It's a...boy?Really? Could have fooled me! But now that I know, yes, things are starting to feel different. This one moves a lot more during the day which is good because maybe that means he's sleeping at night. Yeah, right
So that's all. Been busy with this work thing and such. Sleeping and eating now like a fiend. Starting to wish I was already done, but still a ways to go! ACK
peace and love,
Boots December 14 Is it really gonna be like this again?Since the birth of my darling daughter some 3.5 years ago I have been dreading the thought of becoming pregnant again. Let's just say it was an unpleasant experience all around. Well, of course except the concieving part, but I'll not gross you out any further. He he he. Anywho, this current pregnancy, which I am now in the 2nd trimester of, is turning out to be as bad, if not worse, than the first. The morning sickness is almost unbearable. When I was pregnant with Maggie I was lucky enough to not have to work, so I was able to mope around the house all day feeling sorry for myself and eating only vanilla ice cream and throwing up like clock-work. This time, however, I am working and my job requires me to actually use my brain which while pg functions only on half-speed. Unfortunate but not the worst part. So right around 11 wks things went from bad to worse. I got so sick that I was to the point of not holding down small sips of water. For those of you who haven't experience this, this is the point where they make you go to the hospital for some real fun. Normally (not dehydrated that is) my veins suck beyond compare. The people in the lab at my clinic seriously run when they see me coming. Long story short, it was a hellish evening. The one good thing that came out of it though was the fact that they gave me some lovely drugs to keep my stomach from spazzing out too much. Another downside is my job. I'm sure most of you that work in an office setting know exactly what I'm talking about. The women who sit around me are OBSESSED with free food. That and just food in general. Most of them are making their lunch at 10 or 10:30, a time at which I am not yet ready to smell the wonderful aroma of lean cusine and the budget gormet. Then, around 12:30, when I'm actually ready to eat lunch, they make popcorn. I HATE that smell even not pg!! Ugh, it sucks. So enough feeling sorry for myself, have a great weekend everyone!
peace and love,
Boots December 12 Has it almost been a year?Ok, so I couldn't let a whole year go by with out posting again. So yes, I am alive! Things have been crazy this last year and will only get crazier, but I'm taking some time for myself now. I won't bore you with the mundane details, but here's a quick run down...
1. Got a new WAY better job
2. Tried to get pregnant and had some issues
3. Am 13 weeks preg right now and sick as a dog, but totally excited!
So that's my year in very short, doesn't even qualify for Cliffs Notes, form. More to come later, ta ta for now!
peace and love,
Boots January 05 Happy New Year!Thank the good Lord our New Year's party went much better than Christmas. We had a couple of friends over and served up some totally 70's appetizers complete with the cheapest bottle of champagne we could find. Super fly. Anyhoo, not much has been going on latley. I feel pretty lame writting this blog entry to tell the truth. Work has been pretty much exhausting all of my abilities lately, creative and otherwise, so I've pretty much just been a lump. It seems like we will never see the end of the tunnel with the stupid new computer system. It is making everyone crazy and completley bitchy. I think there will be a lot of drinks consumed at our holiday party in two weeks. I'm kind of looking forward to that. Last year so many people were preggo that it wasn't the same with out them drinking. Still fun, just not the same. Ok, not this is just getting pathetic. Have a great weekend everyone!
peace and love,
Boots  |
