Howdy


Yeah there is no excuse why I don't write as often as I'd like. I generally hop on the computer for facebook and by the time I done with that I don't feel like I have time for anything else other than house work and family. But I figured I'd cute my facebook time short today and actually write something. More for my sake than anything.
Still pregnant but officially 9 months. This little girl is due 3 weeks from Monday and I'm pretty anxious for her. It's been quite the pregnancy so far. we are just waiting for this little girl to go head down so I can deliver her. Currently my little flower is breech (butt first). We go to the hospital tomorrow and if she hasn't flipped on her own then they will flip her. They'll do an ultrasound to determine where she is at and then manipulate her from the outside of my stomach to the position they need her to be in. It will be tricky because she has already dropped into my pelvic bone so they will have to move her out of there... flip her around... and put her back. Dr. was nice and didn't sugar coat that it is going to feel pretty darn uncomfortable and to expect some pain but it is temporary pain compared to the recovery of a c-section. Hopefully we can get her to turn and hopefully she will do it quick and stay there. What would be even better is if she would just turn on her own and before tomorrows appointment so we don't have to go through that! But I'm prepared either way.
I've been officially jobless as of three weeks from tomorrow. That has been interesting. Took my son a couple days to adjust to me being home all the time and him not going to Grammy's. For the past 2 plus years he has been going to my mom's house for daycare so it has been an adjustment for her also. At this point I've just been trying to get things ready and set up with insurance through COBRA so I can have this baby without stressing. Paying for it is going to be tricky though. Its hard to budget for things on David's income alone and especially on something so incredibly expensive.
All in all I feel like life is going alright. granted there are stressers here and there but for the most part I feel blessed. Sometimes it hard to really see the blessings in our lives and especially when we are going through difficult times. But I trust in God and his faithfulness in his plan for me. He is taking care of me even when I don't realize it and ultimately is blessing me even though I may feel doubt or discouraged. He knows what he is doing and I just need to remind myself that sometimes. He'll take care of the insurance, the finances, and our baby girl. He is a good God... I just need to give him more credit.
Well I should go now that I've written a pointless informative blog :)
Hope all is well with everyone!
