Friday...

Good Morning! I am sitting here with my feet up on the bed, checking email and thought I would just post real quick to say we finally have a date, but whether the baby decides to wait that long will be another matter! My C-Section is scheduled for Friday, February 22nd at 39 weeks. I can't imagine there's that much more room in my belly for baby, but we'll see! Another night a insomnia last night and now I feel as if I could close my eyes and be asleep for awhile, but can't do that with a 2 year old in the house!

It's getting colder outside again - yuck! I can't button or zip any of my coats so going outside for anything is not a big priority for me right now! The parking lot at church always gets really bad (pot holes, bumps) in the spring and this little thaw we had a few weeks ago has had that effect - very bumpy and hard to drive through when pregnant! It's gotten better since it's been cold and Mr. Munson took the tractor and graded it a bit.

This weekend, Amber, Brooke and Curt go to their dad's and I guess the girls have a bowling activity tonight and they all have a dentist appointment in the morning. So, they'll be busy! I don't plan on doing too much of anything. Yesterday after the kids got home from school, I had a chore list of to-do's for them and we accomplished quite a bit. Curt and Amber went to the attic and pulled down a suitcase for me for the hospital, the baby car seat, and some more baby clothes I had packed away. So, I get to go through those in the next few days (or more:) depending on how I feel... So, I think I'm as ready as I'll ever be - I already packed the toothpaste, toothbrush, deoderant, shampoo - the things I've learned from experience you definitely don't want to forget once you're in the hospital! I will probably stay atleast 3 days. I know me and I tend to do too much once I get home, so I'm learning my lesson and need to stay as long as they'll let me, but 4 days is a little too long to be away from everyone! Amber will be taking care of things for the most part at home while I'm in the hospital so that Jeremy can stay with me and help - not easy to get in and out of bed and get the baby, etc. after my 4th surgery! It's as close to getting a vacation together alone that we get! Please pray that my legs feel better right away after surgery - I remember they did after I had Erin - that was the best part physically! They really can ache sometimes - I can't wait to exercise again and get the blood flowing better or something!

Well, I hadn't intended for this to be a long post, so I'll post again on Monday or Tuesday. I'm off to get a few things done so have a great day!
