PG - 8 Weeks 3 Days - So Tired

I can say something is definitely cooking in there right now. I'm so tired today. I worked from home and I got more done than I would have if I went into the office. They had a fire drill today and I usually have a million people bothering me when I'm in the office. I can't believe I have so much to get done at the office right now. The next time Leo has to go out of town for a few days, I'm going to see if my SIL can come and stay with us and help out at home. With the reorg happening, all the additions to my team and all the things we have to get done by the end of the year, I'm going crazy. Leo comes home tonight and I can't wait.

BTW, have I mentioned how amazing food tastes? It's even better than when I was pregnant with Phoebe. I guess it's because it's twins. I'm trying real hard to make healthy eating choices, but after reading up on how people pregnant with twins should try to gain a lot of healthy weight by their twenty-fourth week to ensure the healthy size of the babies, I'm not feeling that bad about gaining weight. I did weigh myself today and I've gained 6 pounds since the beginning of the pregnancy. But it's true, food tastes sooooooo good. I'll miss that part of this pregnancy after the babies are born.

Enjoy the eating while you can! I tried to stay healthy, but I also allowed myself the occasional (daily) small indulgence. It kept me sane and satisfied! :)

Oh Eating...I wish!! :) I threw up for 35 weeks with the buggas! So I am so glad you are enjoying the morsels.
And you don't know TIRED yet, twins are just Tiring. The best Christmas gift this year would seriously be a weekend of uninterrupted sleep. :)

Oh I am so happy for you. This is fantastic news, your pregnancy has made my day!!!

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...
