Room for More Friends

I have to admit that I've been a terrible blogger since Paisley was born.  She definitely consumes a HUGE part of my day and then I like to enjoy my free time (aka: 5 minutes) by taking a rapid bath, brushing my teeth, eating, picking up toys, etc.   But I still love to follow everyone's blogs!  My problem is that alot of my blog friends have stopped writing altogether since having their own babies.  So, I'm on the lookout for some new blogs to follow.

I love to follow some that also have babies so I can relate and get advice.  I love having others where a baby just hasn't happened yet.  Those are the most important to me so that I can remind myself every day how lucky I am to have Paisley and to encourage someone who may need it.  And there's nothing more exciting than a pregnancy announcement!

So, if I'm not already a follower, leave me a comment.  I'd love to start stalking following you!  :)

    I'm still lurking. I'm a bad reader/commenter myself these days.

    I'm a semi recent follower. Mama to a 10 month old (almost) and so so in the bloggin arena. I'm trying to blog more, better. But like you...my days are consumed. But just maybe in the future will have one of those fun announcements for #2. Maybe.

    I'm still here, still blogging! I've been looking for new blogs, too, for the same reason. I know it's hard to keep up with a blog as a new mom!
    I've been looking for more blogs about TTC #2, but I think a lot of folks stop blogging after #1. I'm glad you and little Miss Paisley are still here, though!

    I don't comment often, but I read your blog all the time. We live nearby and blog mostly about fun things we do in and around N. with our kids.

Meet Our Little Miracle, Paisley Kate

The post I have been waiting 2 years to write is finally here and I can't really believe it. On Saturday, I woke up at 8:30 a.m. with BAD contractions. By the 2nd one, I knew I was in "real" labor. They were SO different than the braxton-hicks. I got out of bed and decided that I'd take a bath, until water ran down both legs. The pain after that got pretty unbearable immediately and I was having contractions every 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. So, I called Aaron at work to tell him it was "the big day". He decided I was kidding until I nearly leapt through the phone to wring his neck. :) We got to the hospital an hour later and I was dilated to a 4 and having very active contractions. They quickly got me moved to an L&D room. I got my epidural ( AMAZING - we'll talk about this in its own post soon) at a 6 and then my doctor broke my water. (Apparently at home, it had just leaked a pocket of fluid). After he broke my water, labor started picking up ...

Blogging Failure

The fact that I blog less than I exercise is not a good sign.  I miss you all.  And I'm glad to be where I'm at because the problem is that my cup runneth over.  Life is crazy.  The kids are growing and becoming real people and exploring and I'm still struggling to figure out how to parent a VERY challenging 3-year-old. Dear Paisley is actually quite a joy to raise.  She is spunky and energetic and funny.  We desperately struggle to stifle our laughter as we discipline her for things that I never expected her to do or say.  She is the center of attention and loves her baby brother like there's no tomorrow.  I've never met a more opinionated and divalicious child though.  She picks every piece of clothing she wears, which toy she brings in the car, exactly what she is willing to eat, how her hair is fixed, which door she uses to get in the car, etc.  I hear you out there judging me.  I would have to until I gave birth to Whitney ...

33 weeks

We have officially entered the "my-body-may-be-trying-to-kill-me" phase. That's maybe a little bit dramatic, but pregnancy is definitely starting to hurt at times. I'm supposed to sleep on my left side but I can't breathe when I'm on that side. And I figure it doesn't really matter if the blood flow is better if I don't get oxygen to my lungs. So I try my right side, but that hip and outer thigh hurt really badly when I put pressure on them (I guess my extra 25 pounds is too much for them to hold). My tummy is out for obvious reasons, so I end up on my back. I know, shame on me . But guess what? I don't sleep very good there either. What is up with this leg pain??? And is anyone else having pelvic bone pain? Mine feel like they are trying to rip themselves apart, and I'm quite sure they are succeeding. It's almost like they are both the plus side of the magnet and are fighting to separate. OUCH . I still have more energy than I probably...
