utter and complete craziness

I am so totally exhausted... just completely drained. I feel like I have washed up on shore after a hurricane. I have so much stress with all of my pregnancy issues. The last thing I need is more stress! and what do i get??? MORE STRESS!

GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!! Thomas quit playing Warcraft! For the first time in two years I don't feel like a single mother/housekeeper/cook. Things are drastically better just in the last two days. I about had a breakdown Saturday morning and Thomas realized that things had to change. I don't know what I would have done if he hadn't agreed to stop playing. Now the challenge is to find something that we can both do together. We want to start working out together, but until I get these activity restrictions lifted, we can't do that. Plus, Hannah isn't exactly cooperative at the gym... don't know what we would do with her while we work out. And I can't find my key to the gym. It's around here somewhere, I just can't find it. AND DON'T DIE OF SHOCK... Thomas did the dishes on Saturday night so that I could relax. I knew I loved that man for a reason! :) The last couple of days have been wonderful for us. Difficult as we adjust to each other again, and somewhat stressful to our family routines, but so wonderful!!!! I feel like I did when we were engaged! :) But even better! :) AND we were at church VERY CLOSE to ontime last week. That hasn't happened in several months if not longer! We were actually about 90 seconds late. Darn red lights! :)

Anyway... I have a doctor appointment this afternoon. If I have another sonogram, we could find out if we are having a boy or girl. Thomas has to work this afternoon, but maybe I'll surprise him with a visit. We want to know what we are having so bad! We need to know if we should start washing Hannah's teeny tiny baby clothes or if we should start collecting boy clothes. Thomas & I both really want another girl... financially it would be much easier right now. But, I know that Thomas would be so proud to have a little boy. someone to wrestle with and play ball. I wouldn't mind a Momma's boy either. :) If we don't find out today what we are having, we will definitely find out on Nov 27th. I have another appointment with the specialist then and they have a high-tech ultrasound machine. It is really cool. Our 8 month ultrasound should be REALLY cool. They have a 4-D ultrasound machine. We had one done with Hannah and it was so neat to be able to see your baby's face before they were born. Okay, I am just rambling now, but I am just so happy. Completely stressed, but even more happy. My family is back together... and I didn't even realize it was falling apart. :)

later...

Let me know how your appointment goes and how your little one is doing. I already know it's a boy, though. :)
