Dissapointment...

Well, I got the Amnio done and they told me I failed all 5 test! Soooooo My C-section was canceled. They did reschedule it for the following Friday the 30th so now I just have to be patient and wait a week. I will definitely be much happier that way I am so uncomfortable and cannot imagine having to be pregnant for the normal 40 + weeks most women are!

In the mean time I've been busy cleaning and organizing and donating a ton of stuff on freecycle , to a local church based thrift store and to goodwill. I figure if I am not going to use it and it's been sitting there for a yr or OK maybe 3 then I should most likely get rid of it . It makes me unhappy to have it sitting there anyway. I would love to have the Garage done so We can have it made into a finished Garage again and be a workout room for us to use. That is my next goal this yr to clear out all that crap in there and sent it to someone who can use it! I am trying to sell alot of stuff right now mostly the stuff I know is worth money like the vintage glass and toys that I have collected. I'm such a pack rat....LOL...

My Griffin is getting so big ... I was hoping he would be potty trained by now but he's not and I am a bit slack some days... but he really has wanted to do it lately and gets quite embarrassed when he pees or poops his big boy pants. I feel bad for him he has the biggest tears as he realises he has started to go ... poor guy. he has so many words now they are not consistent but sometimes they are really clear and there is no denying what he said... his newest word is no but it's not that mean now it's really cute the way he says it.... HAHAHA I say that now right? ...
He says Ow alot I'm guessing due to me always saying it cause little baby Lyon kicks the crap out of me or moves a hurts the heck out of me.

Oh and I finally got the crib up and it's so cute... I love it , beautiful wood... I think it's birds eye maple. I will have to post some pictures as soon as I take them of the new room but I am still in the process of putting some things up in there so it may be a little bit.

That's all for now I'm sure I'm boring you rambling on like I do ...

Busy, Busy, Busy...

Well I have been so busy lately. I have been trying to finish The boys room and the playroom , I had to sell the Red Armiore I bought and painted last yr to make room, but I made a profit I bought it for 20.00 and sold it for 50.00 ! Yay!I also sold Griffin's Toddler Bed that I had painted red to match the Armiore for 20.00 got that for free so of course that's profit too! Yay again..LOL...
I am selling a bunch of fisher price little people and some vintage household stuff... I had found some really super cute lamps at a church sale this past summer and I love them but of course Brad doesn't like them so I'm selling those too just taking up a bunch of space right now and I need the room to have a really cool Scrapbook space.
I have another Dr appt today and then Friday & Saturday I have Steroid shots... then next Wednesday I have my Amnio, and my pre screen blood work crap for the c-section . Not so yay but at least I will have the baby soon and not have to worry about it anymore.
That's all for now I'll update soon!

It's been awhile....

I know, I know .... I should have posted before this. I didn't forget but alot of stuff has been going on. We had a major Ice storm that took down a ton of trees , electric poles and yes cable lines.. sigh... Mother nature is not happy this winter ... But we did thaw out and they are starting to pick up all the broken limbs and fixed pretty much all the downed lines so we are all better now.
I am 33 weeks and 5 days today had a Dr's appt today they take half the day now and it sucks. At least my Friday appts are not that long they normally last about an hour and I'm outta there ( with good Ultra Sound pictures ) so I love that.

Griffin hates the hospital and gets upset when we go to my Appointments there, Poor Guy. All Dr's and Nurses freak him out now even worse than before, He had to get a full back allergy test not to long ago. he is now officially allergic to Dogs , and some kind of Dry outdoor mold... and he still has an unknown allergy to some type of preservative... Dr says it's rare to be allergic to a preservative but he breaks out all over his face and has had 1 bad reaction to ketchup where he had hives and got sick. soooooo he will have to get tested for some of the more rare ingredients at a later date but the Dr and I need to get a list of common ingredients together and she has to special order them.... so that's a to be continued episode .

I have been pretty busy lately sorting and organizing and trying to get the house at least in a semblance of order and cleaned. LOL it is even more messy at this point that it was last week or the week before. I guess it has to get that way to get better , At least that is what I'm telling myself at this point with only 2 weeks away from my C-section. WOW.. just 2 weeks from Friday! it's so soon yet so long... I hope we will be ready. I should really buy some diapers for the baby... LOL I have been meaning to buy some but I keep thinking I have time but now I don't have much at all! Aghhhhh!
Anyway, back to my nesting cleaning thing I'm doing at the moment. I sold Griffin's Red Computer armiore it was to big for me to keep in his room with the twin bed and the crib. and I am trying to sell the toddler bed but I may just put it up on Freecycle . I'm sad to see them go but we don't have all that space to keep them at the moment so out they go. I also sorted through all the toys and I'm getting rid of a bunch... mostly Little people cause I have a sickness and collected them for him and now I have to many ( Ha did you notice I said I have to many!) LOL ... I get obsessive about things and just don't know when to stop but luckily I did stop a while ago when Brad complained to much .... Poor guy he puts up with alot LOL again I'm working on this compulsive pack rat tendencies I have but it's hard ...
I am also getting rid of a file cabinet that we kept from an old desk . It's so big it takes up way to much room in the new family playroom that is going to hold our computer now... we are also getting a bigger desk since it's to small. I want something long so we can have the printer, the computer and the photo printer all on 1 table together and have space to work . I'm thinking of a buffet table will work or a similar type. I need a table like that for my Scrapbook stuff as well so the Cricut has to have a place to rest. Overall things are going out and not coming in so we are making progress! I'll update sooner next time so stay tuned !
