I love a long weekend! Ups and Downs

Oh the last couple days.

Sunday, Miriam woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Bills mom had these muscle spasms that eventually landed her an ambulance trip to the ER (since she isn't ambulatory, it was the better option then trying to get her in and out of the car.  twice.).  It was hard for Bill.   He went with this dad to the hospital to be with his mom until things settled down.
              *on a side note, all those people that tried to encourage me to do nursing when I was going through some of my college crises.  I think I chose the right thing by NOT doing that.*
Missed my aunt and two uncles visiting in Spokane, which was fine, we needed to stay longer in Tri Cities but I was still bummed about it!

Monday morning, Liam cut himself with a pair of sissors.  Honestly, as silly as this may be, it made my whole day hard.  I felt bad about it.  He cut himself pretty good.  He's going to be okay and all that.

Birth anxiety!  I follow this Facebook page called Birth Without Fear.  There are some amazing stories on there.  Really.  But I've decided Birth without fear for me, right now = doing the best I can until I can get my darn epideral.  I also remind myself about having anxiety before.  The truth is, once you are in labor, there is no room for anxiety.  So that's good. 

Leg cramps that make it so I can't walk around!  They only happen when I am standing or walking (thank goodness).  They are starting to get pretty painful.

Tuesday.  Back to work.  

Trying to turn this around a bit.

Saturday.  I had a nice baby shower with (mostly) family.  We had a good time (sorry still have to unload pictures).  I also took a nap in the afternoon.  Liam fell asleep on my legs.  Miriam got to play with Grandpa.

Sunday (before the chaos)  I got to play bubbles with my kids outside.  Can I just say my daughter really is ingenuitive?  We had no bubbles so she made some and found a straw cap with a small hole to use as a bubble blower.  And it worked.

Monday, breakfast with my Veteran, who let me lay down for an hour or so.  Running some fun errands.  Spending time at my friends house.  We made bean bags for the birthday party this Friday.  I enjoy being crafty, even if it is cutting and filling bean bags. 

Tuesday.  Back to work.
