Busy, Busy, Busy

Sorry I haven't posted in a long time (Hi Mom!). We've been really busy at our house. Phoebe had a show she was in on 10 November. It was Mozart's The Magic Flute. She was fabulous and had a great time. She wants to be in their Winter production, which is Pirates of Penzance. I also just became a Brownie Girl Scout leader and the training and meetings has taken up a lot of my time.

So the big news for today is that I will be platinum blonde for Christmas. I'm at the hair salon right now and getting myself bleached. Can't wait to see it. Also on the fertility front... we're going back to the doctor in January when my insurance changes. It'll be our last ditch attempt to have a second child. I promise to give up coffee, alcohol, etc. for this time trying. I'll be very good and try to be as healthy as I can be.

I'm going to go now and check on blogs and see how everyone is doing. I haven't done that in a long time either.

That's all so exciting! I can't wait to see your hair :) I've been tempted to go chocolate brown but just can't do it...I think I'll always be a blonde!!
Glad to hear from you!

It's about time. I was tired of the same "really busy democratic debate".

Wow, you going to do it (ok, not it)the fertility thing a whirl? What clinic do you use? Now that I realize how frequently I have to go I'm glad that I chose the closest one even though I keep questioning my judgement (should I have gone to the main line one? yada yada).

I'm glad that someone else I "know" will be going through it too. I feel like I'm the only in the the DE Valley.

Take a picture of the glorious blond locks!

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...
