Ahhh, I have slept all day!

I have been asleep almost all day! The girls have bebopped in and out of their room, and there have been issues to deal with, but most of the day was spent snoozing here and there on and off. I think I needed it, I have been so dog tired lately. David let me snooze on the couch, while he took on the wonderful task of fixing this thing we call a computer. It has not let us sign on for a week, imagine, no email, and no checking our sites, and no access to my blogs, oh no! Well he fixed it, and we have overted a total wipeout by a worm.
I lost my morning babysitter this week. I am not really sure what happened. She just stopped getting up in the morning so I could drop Maia off with her. It kinda ticks me off, because it was without notice and it puts me in a tough spot, but oh well, I didn't like her babysitting anyway, and it makes me have to find someone else.

AGH!

Okay this is the thing, I just can't keep up. It is getting increasingly harder for me to do anything. I can't finish up at work, I have to have someone help me, I can't get things done at home, I get too tired. I can't even effectively spend time with my children I get too sleepy and bitchy with them, I run out of patience. You know, I never noticed how much of a bitch I am when I am pregnant until this pregnancy. I just didn't want to be that woman. You know, the one that treats her husband like crap, and makes her children unhappy, the one that doesn't have a nice thing to say. I can't help it though, my emotions fly all over the map. One minute I am thrilled and happy to have such a wonderful man in my life, then I begin to cry because I am sure he will leave me at any second, even though he loves me completely just as much as I love him. It is an unreasonable thought, but it takes me atleast six hours to realize that. I really don't remember being this way when I was pregnant with Maia and Maddie, but Steve would never have told me the way David does, he didn't care to talk to me as much. David and I share so much, we are more that lovers and friends. We are confidants, we share so much. Hopes and dreams, and in the end we try to comfort one another in times of need.
I am just glad it has not been this bad the entire pregnancy, and well I only have a mere 37 days left until D day, which means I can go back to normal, slightly. All I will be then is fatigued from lack of sleep. It will be okay, I will have six weeks to work it all out, and I have two prior births to learn from, hehehe!
All in all I am incredibly happy. I have a wonderful man in my life to raise this child with, and he cares for the girls as well. I have support from family and friends here, and back home. I shouldn't worry so much, but that one of the symptoms of pregnancy, worry, and I do plenty of it.
Damn, just lost my train of thought, I guess I can't type as quickly as I write, because there was so much I wanted to write, I know I barely scratched the surface. I guess I will write more later. Have a great week everyone, and I will write more later, in the near future.

Well all here we are again. I haven't posted for a few days, been rather busy. We are trying to get a deal on a new minivan for the growing family, but it would seem that car dealers aren't into selling people the car they want anymore, they are into selling a deal. Well I wasn't buying the deal and neither was David. They upped the amount we were willing to put down, they changed the vehicle on us because of an $800 dollar difference in options. My feeling is this, that if they wanted the money, they would give up a lil to get a bunch, but if they won't make some concessions and get us the vehicle of our choosing, then I guess we won't be buying from them now will we. I hate the way this particular dealer tried to change it on us. I guess we will go back to our usual dealer and see what he can do for us, maybe we won't get the sun roof, but what we will get is a dealer that goes above and beyond to earn our business, that I like.

As far as the kids, all are well. The baby is doing great and the girls are doing really well as well. I love the way they play and act. I guess it is a really great feeling.

I'm still here!

So today was an interesting day. Work was simply crazy, I mean the day before superbowl at a grocery store, well let's just say, we were selling the hell out of snack items, and I got mine before I left.

I picked the girls up from daycare, and they were surprisingly well behaved. When we got home they cleaned up in their room, I was simply shocked. Now the room isn't perfect, but they are just lil girls, and I can deal with what they managed, I will finish the rest. It just felt good to have things fall into place so nicely. Supper went well and they ate good without fits, so I thought why not a movie and a later bedtime.

Ahhh, so we picked out White Chicks, now that was educational, hehehe! Atleast they enjoyed it and went to bed fairly easily and without a fight. Now that makes mommy happy. I love a day when I can not get upset with my kids, it is a wonderful day when everyone is happy.

Now on to my time, we enjoyed a quiet night after that. Just the two of us yelling at the dog all night. LOL! Watching a movie, and kinda cuddled up in each others arms. It is wonderful time spent as well! A very relaxing day!

Kids

Well it is very interesting to get into their heads occasionally. I just don't often get a chance to get in and out unscathed. Usually a trip inside the head of a child comes with a big price.
The girls room is always dirty, but for the past week it has been filthy. I mean trash on the floor to the extent you can't walk without stepping on it, and the floor is completely covered by either clothes, toys, or blankets.
We are getting ready to buy new beds and a new dresser for the girls and it would be a great help if we could atleast walk in the room to move the old stuff out and the new stuff in.
For three days I have been telling them to clean up a lil bit every day. I have assigned them certain tasks daily so they don't have to do it all in one day, but each day they have chosen to ignore me. Finally we are at crunch time, tomorrow we are going to pick up the beds and dresser and they have not even begun, in fact it has gotten worse. So last night after cutting my foot on trash when tucking them in, I told them they would not be allowed to do anything until they had cleaned up in their room.
Today it is a beautiful day outside, and a perfect time to ride bikes or play with the neighborhood kids, but they have been told no. Maia comes into the living room weeping lightly after having been in her room five minutes.
"Mom, I don't want anyone to play with me!" says Maia.
"Why, so you don't have to clean your room?" I respond.
"Yes" she says.
LMAO! She honestly thinks that she won't have to clean her room if she doesn't want to play with anyone....hehehe! I don't understand where her reasoning comes from but I gave her an E for Effort...lmao!

And so we begin!

Well everyone, life is pretty much the same as it is everyday here. I am just pregnant and living my life. Life gets hectic and crazy with two children and one overgrown child, but it is great!
We are finally begining to pick up things for our new arrival. We have accumulated a bassinet and some clothes, but I worry bout buying too many toys before she will actually need them, hehehe! Everyone is excited. I went to the doctor yesterday and she assures me that things are going along just as planned and the baby is great. Maddie still insists that it is a boy though, she will hold on to that hope until a lil girl pops out.
I am seated on the couch as we speak, curled up with my lil Maddie just watching a good movie ( Home on the Range), Maia is in school. OMG! Yes she is already in full time all day school, I can't believe she is not the lil baby I had just a few weeks ago as it seems. They both have gotten so big this past year. They grow up way too fast.
As for anything else, oh yes, David is getting over his pnuemonia, thank goodness, because we were a sad couple with me big and pregnant and him too sick to rise from bed. Dinner was a big show every night, neither one of us felt like cooking, but we managed, and ate out a bit.
Well life calls my name, I guess I should be going! Everyone have a great day!
