Long time since update

As you have probably noticed, I haven't been updating this site in awhile. 

I don't know yet what I will do with this site, but for now, I am updating my adventuresinmellowland.blogspot.com  often.  So if your looking for an update, that is where you will find it.  Lots of good stuff going on.  :)

Not feeling so good

Lately, I feel crummy.  I've been struggling to fight off these headaches that seem to be plaguing me.

I go to bed with it, and wake up with it.  Tylenol doesn't do the trick. 

Still starving all the time, and nothing sounds good, and sleepy.  I just feel drained.  What should I expect, right? :)

It definitely not the end of the world. 

My family is out of town, so it's just me, and Mr. Herbie holding down the fort.  I couldn't go, because we don't want to cause any irritation and bleeding...so I am stuck on my bum.... it's very lonely and too quiet around here.  I miss them!  I need someone to keep me company.  Ah well...once again, not the end of the world. 

I just wish these headaches would go away.

So In Love!

My how they've grown! 

They are beautiful. we are head over heals for them!  Both babies had heartbeat of 171, and both of them measured right on.  Pretty amazing for such dreary news a couple weeks ago.  :)  Woot!

Both of our little ones were showing us their moves, which absolutely had me all choked up.  It was unbelievable...I could watch them all day! 

It's possible that they share a placenta...it's hard to tell for sure, but the bleed surrounds both of them, so it may just be one....which means it could be that they are identical.  I won't hold my breath on that one though.  We have one more appointment with the RE next Monday, and then we are done with them.  I am sad about that...and now we have to move on and find the perfect match for us..which is hard.  UGH.  We have an appointment with a perio on the 14th.  I'm not sure if he delivers, and if not, I have to find an OB too.  Good news is that we are going to be watched frequently, which means we see the babies frequently.  :) 

So exciting!

8 weeks 5 days: Happy New Year

Happy New Year, my Friends!

We had an uneventful week.  Me laying on the couch, hubby pushing food, and kids helping with laundry.  Topping it off with no new bleeding!  I feel successful this week!!

I am hoping we have a shrinking SCH on our hands....that would be most excellent!

So very sleepy still, even though I am doing absolutely nothing.  Still hungry every couple of hours, and super dizzy when I am up doing things.

Looking forward to Monday afternoon, and seeing our little ones.  Late appointment that day....I hope it doesn't seem forever long.  4pm, it is!

We rang in the new year watching a movie with our kids.  How to train your dragon..it was cute.  Jake grilled me a steak, since I had been craving protein, and because the thought of chicken makes me feel like I will lose my lunch, and I can't eat anything hard because of these braces.  It was perfect and I felt a lot better after eating it.  He also got me some key lime pie...trying to fatten me up.  :)  It's not working quite yet.  You would think the combination of doing nothing and eating fattening foods would do the trick, but, no such luck as of yet.

I am blessed to have him taking such good care of me.  Thank you, honey.  You are the best! 

Glad for a new day!  Glad for a new year!
