A Glimpse Into The Future...

Wow - what a night! And by what a night, I mean what a SHITTY night! UGH! First of all my insomnia kept me up to darn near 2 am, so I finally decide to *try* to go to bed, only to find that Hunter was in my bed, had wet thru his pull-up and my entire room smelled like pee (I blame that on my heightened sense of smell!) SOOOOOOOO - I get him changed and get a towel under him, but I still can smell the pleasant aroma so I head out to the couch...

I think I finally fell asleep sometime after 3, but lo and behold, Dane is whining and crying at 4:15 - so up once again. I get him some Gatorade and some Tylenol (running a fever) and I lay with him, I mean I try to lay with him but that kid flips, turns, rolls, whines, repeat - so there was no "sleeping" for me. I tried a few times to go back to the couch, but he kept whining and I had to rub his feet for him (I think it's growing pains) so it wasn't until 6:30 or so when I got out of there... (Just in case you weren't keeping track, I have had less than 2 hours of sleep by now!)

So at 6:30, I went and crashed in my bed - I was so tired, there was no aroma.

I am just a little tired today.

So, as much as I am whining and fussing about last night - I realized this morning that once this baby arrives, all of my nights are going to be this much fun. Oh joy....

Sicky McSickerson

This is a PSA for all of the mothers and fathers out there -

DO NOT tell your child he/she has a fever! For some reason, as soon as you tell him/her that they have a fever ALL of their symptoms maginify by at least 50!

Hunter had said his belly hurt this morning, but AS SOON as I said he had a fever, oh lordy, I think he was going for the best actor in a drama series - he turned the drama on! Of course I feel bad for him (and me b/c I have to listen to him whine!) but come on - seriously! As if he really feels soooooooo much worse than he did 5 minutes ago!

Anyway - this little event set the precendent for the day - oh well -

Knocked up with Erick's Love Child...

Ok - So some of you may not know that I just found out I was preggo with #3! My husband, Jamie, and I are SUPER thrilled and can't wait until May when our newest bundle of crys and shitty diapers will be here! I am mentally creating pro's and con's for either gender - see what you think.

Girl Pros
~More estrogen in the house
~All the CUTE pink clothes
~Already have 2 sons
~Girls never "marry off" to a new fam

Girl Cons
~More estrogen in the house
~Have to purchase ALL new clothes and redo nursery
~Teenage years

(I probably could have thought of another negative for girls, but SHIT, I was talking myself out of wanting a daughter!)

Boy Pros
~Have the nursery done
~Have tons of clothes

Boy Cons
~I WANT A DAUGHTER
~I will be the only female in a house of 4
~How much more wrestling/shooting/fighting can I seriously handle?


In all honesty, I just really want a healthy (female) baby - I mean healthy (girl) baby - - wait, seriously, I just want a healthy baby AND easy labor and delivery!





Oh, and as far as the title goes - it's not really Erick's love child, but I wanted you to read the entire post looking for the juicy details. Come on, give me some credit - Erick and I keep that on the down low! (Just Kidding Jamie! Love you!)

So this is blogging...

I took the plunge - I am a blogger.

No need to call a therapist, I am told being a blogger is normal (maybe) and that it is perfectly ok to air all of your clean, dirty and somewhat musty laundry on the WWW. (sorta)

I am creating this blog mainly to vent about all the good and crappy things in my life. Hence the title of my blog "Top (or bottom) of the World!"

So, if you are reading this WELCOME! I hope you enjoy my random thoughts (and if you don't, well... you don't have to read them!)

TTFN!

Amanda
