Mahna and Franky and Penny

it always works out that way

Yesterday I was thrilled to wake up for the first time in 4 days to a bed that Mahna's diaper had NOT leaked pee on. I literally washed sheets and matress pad and remade the bed 4 days in a row. My dear friend CinCin knows how much I LOVE to change sheets. HAHA. Of course I wake up all happy and then 5 minutes later Penny (dog) pukes on the bed. STUPID DOG!!!!! (If I was kind and not a grumpy pregnant heffer I would be worrying about why poor Penny was sick at that moment).

Last night I finally slept HARD, for longer than four hours. BUT of course my dear sweet sleep like a rock thru the night daughter woke up crying at 4:30 am and was REallY upset. It took me about 10 minutes of trying to comfort her to figure out she just wanted to go potty in the potty chair instead of in her diaper. After that she was fine. But it just figures. LOL Then on top of that I was watching my nieces today so they got here at 8:15 and I WAS STILL SOUND ASLEEP! I had to get up and I have enjoyed them so I am not complaining, it just figures, when I physically CAN sleep, I responsibly CAN NOT.

Not that my dadeo reads my blog but I would like to say thanks to him and my ma for getting me a wireless keyboard to hook up to my laptop so I can type again!!!!!!!!! Yippeeee

a decent computer!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally I get to post from my mom's computer where I can type normally. Of course I whine all the time about how annoyed I am with my keyboard,but have i called Dell to ASK how much it would be to fix it? NO! I hate phone calls. I have had to call back and forth lately with our mortgage company because our loan got purchased and I had already made the payment to the old company. They have reassured me a few times now that the money will be transferred to the new company, but a friend of ours who is even a loan officer himself, got screwed when his loan got purchased. SO we are nervous........ Jarrod more than I, and being extra careful.

I am so tired today I can't even think correctly. Now I know how L felt the other day when I was at her house. She is less than 2 wks from due date andI am about 6 wks away........ I just can't get comfy at night, no matter how many pillows. I want to sleep so bad, I look so forward to quiet bedtime coming...... Then I may go to sleep for 3 hours or so and I wake up with my tummy being rock hard, my back and hips hurting and my shoulders hurting because I have to sleep on my side, my uncomfyness wakes me and then my brain turns on and once it gets going the night is O V E R. It sucks. I am considering getting my tubes tied after this baby is born. Any advice on the subject? I just can't imagine ever wanting to get pregnant again. Plus this will be my 3rd C Section.

Dad's got our fajitas cooked so TOODALOO!!!!!!!!!!

few-moments-alone

I would say these moments alone right now are semi-unwanted.
Mahna woke me at 3:30 and couldn't get comfortable again until after 4 so I was pretty wide awake by
then. My insomnia is getting annoying. Luckily a lot of days I can take a nap with Mahna in the afternoon. I am slacking off on my own housework and Cole's room is not even close to decorated.

Today I get to see my buddy from middle school, as she has a 2 hour layover at the Dallas airport. The only hard part is getting to the airport by 7:50 a.m.!
:)
I am looking forward to it tho.

Mahna and I have a ritual.
Every morning we both put our makeup on. I have a little chair for her to stand on at our sink and she knows what drawer has the makeup.
She is very good at listening towhat she is allowed to play with and not
play with. Her favorite thing is for me to curl her eyelashes! Of all things I figured she would whine aboutit hurting! It is fun having a little girl.
I wonder what a boy will
b e like.

THANKS"

blog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I just need a moment of silent aloneness
to post.
