I was getting frustrated about not selling the extra ducks. Fortunately I got creative. Nothing wrong with a little whine to blow off steam for a few minutes before you regroup and try something new.
So I think today went Ok, but we won't know how ok for another 30-60 days. and that's all I'm saying. For now.
After we got through what we needed to get through, I looked at my belly and said, "Ok, Baby Girl, I'm proud of you! You stayed in there today, but you can come out now!"
So, hoping that at my appointment tomorrow Doc says, "You're halfway dialated, and effaced, so lets go have a baby!" and at this point I don't CARE if it's via c-section or what, I am just ready to have her O U T.
Still here, no baby yet! BUT we have everything ready to go in the car just incase at my appt today Doc decides we get to go today! (please please please )
2 more gorgeous little red dresses came in the mail for Baby Girl yesterday. I think she officially has more clothes than Ivanna Trump. Worried that the other kids are feeling left out or badly about all the cutie outfits coming in for Baby Girl, so we're going to do a "big splurge" and take each of the older ones shopping for a new outfit. It's uncommon for us to buy them a "new" outfit for anything other than Birthdays or Christmas, but we were at KMart the other day and they have a lot of nice things marked down right now, so we're going to shop hard for good deals while still letting the kids have a say in their new outift. Of course, this probably won't happen until after she's here and I'm feeling up to going places and walking through a store.
Also wanting some Casting Crowns music. I'm not allowed any music in the OR for the c-section (which sucks) but I should be allowed a small cd player in my private room before and after, so I want some Casting Crowns and other praise and worship cd's to take into my private room for playing before and after my c-section.
I'm ready to get this day started! Soon as I'm done with my coffee, I'm off to shower and get dressed, send kiddos to school, and go for my last and final crotch check before we get to hold our baby girl!
SHE'S ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!!
side note and totally off topic - Really weird dream from last night!
I dreamed last night that a beautiful pearl gray long haired cat wandered into our yard. I picked her up and she was hungry so E says take her in and feed her. Immediately I launch into, "can I keep her? make her a house cat?" (In RL E has a NO house cat rule for the house) He's saying no, no house cat, just feed her and put her back outside. So after I feed her I'm rubbing her belly and notice a scar - so I tell E I think she's been spayed already so can I atleast keep her? And he says only outside. Then I discover she's been declawed, so I start using that as ammo to have her as an indoor cat and I'm upset that someone would put her outside after declawing her- and that's where I woke up.
HAHA. Kind of funny, because we have a litter of 3 kittens right now, and I've been begging E to let me make the one I call Padre into a house kitty. He's deadset against it. I'm OK with people choosing to spay/neuter their pets, but I'm totally against declawing a cat because I have seen people dump declawed cats outside and I just don't feel those poor kitties have a fair chance with thier claws for defence in the outdoors.
Ok, hope ya'll have a great day! If you don't hear from me by tonight, we might be having a baby - but be warned, I don't plan to post an PUBLIC ONLINE announcements right away, so forgive me ya'll will have to wonder if I don't come back.
