Not Yet

So I'm still prego! I saw my doc Wednesday & was informed that we would wait another week (which would be my due date) to decide if I would be induced. Talk about hopes being shattered. David was on his way home to see us & be here for the delivery. But I was so glad to be able to see him anyway. And I guess this way we got to spend all of our time with him outside of the hospital.

Lance was beyond happy to see & play with his daddy. He was David's shadow, & Daddy was so happy to be with his boy. It was so hard to watch David leave today, & Lance had a hard time going to sleep since Daddy was suddenly gone again. I'm so ready to have a baby & be able to go be with my hubby again. At least now the separation will be shorter until we see him again.

And maybe we'll have a baby sometime this week or I'll be induced on Friday. Just maybe...if only...please, please, please.

Dots for Dinner


Tonight my gourmet mother cooked up some Dots for dinner. I really don't love dots (but they are candy & we all know I can't pass on candy), but my mom insisted I try one after she warmed it in the microwave. Yes, you're reading this right--microwaved Dots. She put them in the microwave to soften them, but of course then we had hot Dots...gross. I didn't like them any better after she cooked them. But she liked the liquid centers after microwaving them for too long. Now we know how to make Gushers. :)

Just about time

This is me trying to suck in & look thinner. Is it working? :) I'm now 2 weeks away from my due date. And it looks like the docs going to start me on Friday (if nothing happens between now & then).

David gets to come see us on Wednesday or Thursday. Yippeeeee!!! Lance & I have missed him terribly--it's been over 5 weeks since we've seen him. But Lance loves to talk to his daddy on the phone. He'll talk for as long as we'll let him, & he yells at me if I try to take the phone back. Today when I told him to tell Daddy goodbye & give me the phone, he said "bye bye" & then hung it up. Then he yelled at me for making him say goodbye. What a stinker.

Talk about some big fat feet! My mom calls me Shrek--how nice. But since these pictures were taken my mother-in-law took pity on my "Shrek" feet & gave me a pedicure--so now at least my toenails are pretty. I'm going to brag now & say that my mother-in-law is better than yours. :)

Surprise...

...it's me! Just a quick post & update. I finally have access to the internet at my mom's house, but there just never seems like time for blogging. :(

We had to move out of our apartment in Colorado at the end of June, so me & Lance have moved to my parents house (isn't family wonderful?), & David is staying at a friend's house in Avon until his job is finished--hopefully at the end of next week. Then David is on to Rexburg, Idaho while I stick around Utah to deliver little Luke (yes, that will be his name--I'm not afraid of name stealers).

I'm 36 weeks along, & we don't know when we'll have a place in Rexburg, so we decided that I should stay put until the baby is born. I'm missing David terribly, & he's missing Lance even more. Hopefully we'll get to see him next weekend before he goes to Idaho.

Lance & I are having lots of fun with the grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, & cousins. It's wonderful to be around family again. I do have some pictures to post, so I'll try to do that soon. But now a nice soft bed is beckoning me--oh, how I do not miss the air mattress.

The Real Deal

It's actually me...posting quickly from the library. I just wanted to thank my DB for doing some posting for me. She's doing a fab job, don't you think?

Lance is getting so big of course. And that means he has his own ideas about what he's going to do all the time. He woke up one morning & brought me his arm floaties. I tried to put them away & he fussed until I blew them up & let him wear them. Most mornings he brings me his shoes right away & needs to wear them all day. Then if he thinks its time to go outside he brings me his hat. If I don't get the hint, he stands at the front door pounding on it to get out. He is also such a cool dude & wears his sunglasses everywhere--even inside the house & when watching TV (I guess it reduces tv glare). He is just a funny kid & Daddy's shadow. He follows David from room to room & does everything that Daddy does. We came home from runny errands one day, & Lance walked from room to room calling for DaDa. He even checked in our bed & under David's pillow to see if Daddy was hiding from him.

As for David, he's like having a second child--a very big child who does not mind. It is David's routine to get Lance ready for bed. Of course this means that Lance always goes to bed late because Daddy always needs "just 10 more minutes" to play with his boy. His 10 minutes turns into an hour, & when Mama tells Daddy that it is time to put Lance to bed, Daddy says, "Don't boss me. You're not my mother." And all the while Lance has been playing on his own because he's tired of having to play Daddy's way, & David has been playing with Lance's toys all by himself. Don't get me wrong...I'm glad David plays well by himself. :) What a big kid he is.

I saw that the DB has said we'll be moving to Rexburg. Hooray! I can't wait. I only hope that it's soon. I can't wait to have a couch to sit on (I'm sure I've mentioned that before). We took Lance for a walk a couple days ago, & we walked through a big lodge so David could play at the arcade (I said no arcade, he about cried). But it gave me time to just sit on one of the many couches there. I can see we'll have to go there more often. :) Hopefully I'll have my computer soon & can once again join the blogging world. Until then...toodles.
