MIA


LOL I have been MIA! I blame the Wii!! hahaha We bought a Wii a week ago and have had a blast with it. At one point the rowing game in the mario olympics made me have contractions, so I had to sit down and let someone else play. One of our nieghbours came over and thought the trampoline thing was the freaking best! We couldn't stop laughing! Last night we went to buy Dance Dance Revolution for the Wii, but they were sold out :( I think that would be as fun as anything!! And that would definatly make me going into early labour!!

Work has been crazy too!! The big boss is in England, to return on Sunday, and my other boss is in the Bahamas! She returns on Monday! SO this week has been a bit more laid back because the bosses are out, but than means after lunch everyones been slacking and now need stuff done!! Which I am ok with. I can usually fill my morning with facebook and babyzone. Cathcing up on emails and posts. Thursdays and Fridays I can fill part of my afternoon with doing the payroll. But my 230 or 3? I am B-O-R-E-D!! And my facebook inbox gets blocked so I can't read any messages. I have to hook up the laptop to the other companies network to log into MSN and read the facebook message thtough MSN, but I can't send anything back!! It's ridiculous!

Yesterday, everyone but one other person went out for the morning. Our company decided to do a park clean up. They actually cleaned the one up around my house. So it was disturbing when they got back and listed the stuff they found; condoms, a crack pipe, needles... I can't believe that! The last time we were there it looked so clean!! I wasn't allowed to go because of my "condition" apparantly being pregnant is a condition nowadays lol Doesn't bother me, it was cold out yesterday!! And I sat here on babyzone, catching up on posts and ordered the pizza for there lunch. Although I didn't stay for the pizza. I HAD to have a big mac!!

I also had a Dr. appt last week. Everything went well, hopefully they will send me for another ultrasound soon so we get another estimate on he wieght! I don't want another 10 pounder!! lol Hell, 7 or 8 pounds will be a breeze compared to Thomas! My next appt is Tuesday so hopefully he will send me for an U/S. On Tuesday I will be 32 weeks! If labour starts they won't stop it!!

This morning I went to Tim Hortons and had to have a tea and now I'm regretting it. Hannah must be on a caffiene high right now. She is just moving, head butting or bum butting maybe?! LOL I don't know what she's doing but it hurts! It's like a sharp pain today! At least she is no longer camped out in my ribs! I think she must have dropped at some point this week.

...payroll is calling. I can hear it...Yup! Time to actually work for 10 minutes!! lol

Engineers!!

and more engineers!! My boss is hiring a new one and there coming and going like crazy! Since 8am they have been coming. Sitting and chatting with me and filling out a form. Than into the big boss' office. From there they move to the boardroom to meet with 2 managers from Pittsburgh, and last, but not least, into our chief engineers office. The whole process takes....2 hours!!! The one and only woman engineer had her husband and baby in the parking lot waiting for her! When I left for lunch her husband was trying to put him to sleep! Poor guy, I guess they didn't warn them about the time frame! I myself went through many interviews, questions and several hours when it was my turn! So far, I like the woman, and the crazy haired guy who is a chief engineer for Cadbury currently!! The others seem weird and probably wouldn't fit in here.

Today started early, at 630 to be exact. T slept into 7:15. Poor guy was sooo tired from last night. He came home and played outside for several hours, came inside to eat some Swiss Chalet and was back out again by 7:20. With both neighbour boys over to play and there parents we all had a great time. It really makes me NOT want to move. As much as we want a bigger place...our neighbours are just too awesome.

So by the time I was up and showered and FINALLY got T to dressed and ready it was already 7:30. So we went to McDonald's for breakfast. Yuck, what a greasy way to start the day. It made me feel so nasty. I get to work and one of our engineers gives me a 2.2 pound chocolate Cadbury, Dairy Milk chocolate he got from England. OOOO it was good, there's less than half left! I have only eat about 10 little squares and I cannot eat anymore! But there's lots of people in the office that are enjoying it as well!

Now, I am sitting and my neck hurts :( I have done all my work, I have more coming but it's not in front of me yet so I thought I would take time to facebook and babyzone since I haven't been on much today. Everytime I would log on someone would need me! I had to run and get lunch for our Pittsburgh friends and than I was late taking my own lunch! That's ok, I went home and was just resting for about 20 minutes.

And I fell asleep during Girlicious so I don;t know who won!! My guess was Natalie, Charlie and Nichole but I didn't even hear them sing :( I guess I will google it now! haha! Tonight, T has his tutoring and by the time he's home we should have dinner and be able to play outside for an hour or so before bed. So much time outside has made him exhausted at bed time. I think maybe on the nights before he has tutoring his bedtime needs to be moved up half an hour. He was SOOO tired this morning!

The sun is in my eyes, this means its around 2:30, the light hits the cars an a way that hits my eyes directly. My tummy is too big for me to search under my desk for the thingy I normally put up. But Roger has just come along on his way out to help me! Lucky guy, gets to leave at 2:30.

It seems our 2pm engineer has changed their mind. They didn't show up. I believe there are still 2 in the back being rotated around. I have lost track of them!! And I am feeling hungry, but oh god, not for chocolate!! I had a lovely thought just now...its Thursday..which makes tomorrow FRIDAY!! woohoo

Friday and Tuesdays I look forward too. Fridays for the same reason as everyone else, the weekend! And Tuesday. Every other Tuesday is my Dr. appt to listen to Hannah's heartbeat and find out her weight and everything else. But EVERY Tuesday is the my ticker changes (see facebook or BZ) This Tuesday my ticker said 29 weeks!! Tuesday coming....30 Weeks!!! How close am I?! That means ion a maximum of 10 weeks we will have our new baby girl!! But it could be as little as 2 weeks!! OH yay!! We need to finish cleaning out the closest and putting her clothes away. She needs more clothes..and we need to get bottles and some more diapers!! ohhh, we need more stuff! I'm going crazy!!!

So very bored!

It's not even 3pm!! I have exhausted facebook, babyzone, cosmo, and the several other sites that usually keep me occupied until at least 4:45. Today is Wednesday, Hump day :( Monday and Tuesday I usually have some invoices and accounts payables to do. And Thursday and Fridays timesheets!! But everyone is having a slow day I guess. I have done everything I need to and am bored out of my mind!

I had a giant Big Mac for lunch and I am still hungry! Since I was late this morning I forgot to pack my snacks :( I did watch Bringing home baby on my lunch hour though. Some people are SO weird. The baby girl was born 3 days before her due date and they had nothing done! Everything was still in its packages and had tags on and nothing set up! If the baby was maybe 4 weeks early than that's understandable I guess. But 3 days? You don't think you should unpack stuff??

But before I actually got home for lunch I had to sit in traffic for 15 minutes. My usual 4 minute drive home was almost 20! And I stopped to get gas and the gas lady said I look really good and she hopes the baby is healthy. The bank lady said something last week too. I guess that means I "popped" and don't just look fat anymore? LOL I think tonight I want to go home and go straight to bed.

I fell asleep at about 1130 last night after watching National Treasure II. I slept pretty well, I have the last 2 nights (thanks to the massage!) I didn't even get up 5 times to pee, I think only once did I get up. And this morning I did NOT want to get up! I don't remember DH's alarm going off, I vaguely remember him saying good bye. T came in at 6:34am and crawled into bed with me. I was going to put cartoons on for him but than I remembered he had to have a bath. So, I got up, ran a bath with bubbles, he comes in and says "NOOOOOO! a Shower!! Mommy a shower!" So I make him get in it anyways and I crawl back into bed for all of 30 seconds. I couldn't stand his whining so I pulled the plug, turned the shower on and handed him the sprayer. I trudged back to bed and the clock say 6:43. My alarm goes off at 6:45 ugh. So I turn the alarm off and crawl into bed anyways!!

"Mommy! I'm done!"
"Un huh" ....30 seconds pass
"Mommy! I'm clean!"
"In a minute"....30 seconds pass
"Mommmmmmmmieeeeeeeeeee, I washed my hair!"
"Alright! I'm coming"

It's now 6:51. I get him out, point to the clothes I layed on his bed and crawl BACK into bed.

"Mommy, I can't find my other sock"
"Check the floor"
"O!"

"Mommy I don;t like this shirt"
"Get a new one"
"Mommy I -"
"Ok ok ok I'm up"
"You tired mommy?"
It's a good thing he's so darn cute!! So we were up and out and actually on time. But since then, the day has been dragging.

I think I will pick up T, go home and change and let him play outside (if it's not raining, it looks like it may) with the neighbour, and after DH is home and showered I am due for a nap. But than I stay up later...and the whole routine starts again!! 10 weeks left to go! Than I have 2 to worry about and I won't be sleeping in at all! But I'm sure I can convince Thomas to take a nap!

Totally Relaxed...



So, today I am 29 weeks pregnant. Which means I have 77 days to go! I am in the third trimester! The home stretch! I see the light at the end of the tunnel! Ok, you get it. Anyways, So right about this time with Thomas I started having MAJOR back pain. It lasted right up until I had him, and then for about another 2 weeks.




So last week as I was waiting to pick Thomas up from tutoring I went into the Massage Therapy/Chiropractors office in the same plaza. I had recently called about 20 different spa's in the Burlington/Oakville area and out of them all, only one did prenatal massages. That one had a 6 week waiting list, and won't touch anyone of 32 weeks pregnant. So lets do the math. I was 27 weeks at that point....6 week waiting list.....33 weeks! Well, That doesn't help me does it?! and they charged $95 for 35 minutes.


Anyways, I went in and asked about it and they said of course they do! And on top of that they could book me in right away!! I ended up having to delay it until yesterday but they had no problem with the time I wanted! They ended up being $70 for a full hour and billed it straight to my insurance since ultimately they pay the bill anyways! YAY! I go again on May 3rd!




So I went last night and O M G! It was awesome! My back feels a helluva lot better today. I slept SOOOO good last night too. Usually I toss and turn and try to get the belly comfy, only to have to get up and go pee 5 minutes after getting comfy! Last night, I got up at 4:30 or 5:30 can't remember which...only because T was up and had to pee, and DH jumped out of bed to make sure T actually made it to the bathroom and not fall asleep and pee in his jammies. So we all got up to pee!! And usually when Dh's alarm goes off I wake up, or at the very least hear the front door when he leaves. This morning I slept right until my alarm! Than turned it off and went back to bed for an additional 5 minutes! But than got my butt out of bed and got T ready for too. I ended up not only being on time today, but a bit early! So I dropped T off at AG for babysitting until school and went to Timmies on my way to work. Got to work and actually had work to do!




So today I worked until about...2ish. Than I got on babyzone and facebook. And than eventually this. So I know have 1 hour and 20 minutes until I get to leave.




Tonight the plan is... not much! I have to drive a coworker home today. Than pick up T at tutoring... And I was hoping to watch the finale of Pussycat dolls presents Girlicious, but I couldn't find it on for some reason when I was TiVoing things for the week :( When I went home for lunch I played in the sandbox with our nieghbours kid and he was soooo excited when he saw me pull up. I think he thought T was in the car. Poor little guy! So I think tonight will consist of the two of them playing in the sand. There's been alot of outside play recently, which is great since it's so nice out and they wear there energy off faster.
Pics of our weekend:
This weekend we even bought an inflatable pool and filled it with warm water from the house and let the kids splash around in it. Thank god summer is almost here!

Introduction

Well, I used to have a blog. It even had subscribers! I guess I was that interesting. That, of course was when I was single and guess had "juicy" things to say! Since than I deleted ALL the posts and started over a few times! Much to the dismay of the readers, I got several comments about how they wanted to be able to read the history. But, sometimes, It's not something you want all over the Internet anymore! So the last time I recreated it March 22, 3 weeks before meeting Tyler. So the blog stopped dead after a few weeks. Too busy to keep it up I guess!
I read it and couldn't believe how much I've changed. Although that's what I used to say every 8 months or so and I would delete and restart! College days were the best blogs I'm told.

Anyways, So lately I have missed writing things. I'm not a diary writer, I hate using pens lol In fact, the favourite pen I have is sitting under my desk as I write because my 7 month preggo belly is in the way when I try and reach it!! I have been telling myself that I would start another blog soon, helps keep me from talking to myself! So this is it!

I am 21, I have a 5 yr old son (5 and a half if you ask him), and we have Hannah on the way! Hannah is due July 8th, 2008. Although, I have this deep suspicion that she will make her grand appearance earlier. DH, is Tyler, 25. I work at a power company. I do alot of nothing some days and alot of alotness otehr days! lol It depends on what the engineers need! I do everything form answer phones, translate contracts from various languages, type documents, proofread, make travel arrangements, payroll, ordering lunch and even organizing business cards! lol The mundane ones I do when I am bored. I spend alot of the day on facebook or babyzone. I think being 7 months pregnant has stopped the engineers from asking me for help. So I am REALLY bored these days! DH does construction. How boring is that! lol

DH, Thomas (T) and I live in a 2 bedroom house currently. My father also lives with us. He is a basement dweller. He come out for work and when he smells pizza. That's about it! It's actually a great help having him there since we have a live in babysitter and financially its a good choice as well. T has his own room (as he always has) and this means, baby Hannah will be in our room! So as you can guess, we are also looking for a new place, a BIGGER place! just by one room. Although our search is kinda complicated since we need to have a finished basement since that's where dad lives. Of course, we could always move without him, although than, I'm not sure where he would live. i don;t think he likes living alone.

I think that's a good intro for a blog!
