No Baby Yet... Bummer

So we wanted to just let everyone know that there is still no baby yet. Can you tell? We still have a week left, but are really hoping that he will come this weekend. Mike has it planned out that if he comes on Friday he can take 10 days off of work not just 8. This would be because of Memorial Day. I would just like to hold him in my arms, and not just my belly!!!

The last couple of weeks have been pretty stressful. I ended up in the hospital because I found out that I have gallstones. And there is nothing I can do until after the baby is delivered. So there are many sleepless nights that I have to put up with the pain of passing the stones. I hear that this pain is much worse than laber, so I should be set. Right? Labor should come easy... I hope that is true, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Mike has been great, trying to take care of me and keep me as comfortable as possible as I am going through what we like to call an attack or an episode.

Mike has started his summer session of classes, and he is pretty excited about the classes he is taking. They are having him d0 lots of work, but he is grateful for the chance to be learning. He really thinks he will enjoy how these teachers are going to teach the classes, even with them just being online classes.

So that is our life right now, just doing the waiting game until our sweet baby boy comes.

Just a little update...

Well Mike and I are just trying to finish getting ready for our son. Mike wants him to come as soon as possible, as long it is after the first of May. This is because I will be completely finished with my finals for the semester. Yah!!! But in actuality he is not due until the 20th. So I guess we will have to see when he is truly ready to come.

Mike is working hard at work and here at home. He has been great with helping me out, when I get to tired. Or I just can’t seem to work things out with my belly getting in the way. He’s my hero. He is also getting excited to be starting school again this summer. He will be taking 2 classes online, along with working full time. He will be busy.

I have been continuing to work on homework and stay sane while I am here at home and not working. I will be grateful when school is finished for the semester, and I don’t have to think about that for a few months. I have a new found love, which has been keeping me busy. It is that of putting different picture slide shows together. I just found that I like to be creative this way. And it allows me to use and show off our pictures we have.

I'm just going to show off a couple that I have completed.

It was just fun to put this together!!!

So I have had a few technical difficulties. Hopefully this works better!!!

Taking a peek at our son's room!

Well, we are so proud of how cute our son's room is. We are also very pleases with the way the crib turned out after Mike painted it. So we thought we would put up a little clip that shows what the room looks like. Hope you enjoy...

"us" now!!!

Well, right now we are just preparing for our bundle of joy!! He is due May 20th 2008 and we simply cannot wait. We are enjoying putting his room together and making it as cute and boyish as we can. Mike enjoyed painting the crib and setting it up. When he finished he did say he was done with painting for awhile. His room is a safari/ Noah’s Ark theme. We know they really are not the same but it looks darn cute. Really it just comes down to more of a fun animal theme.

Mike has been working long and hard to support our family and I know I truly appreciate all that he does for our little family. He likes working and being busy. He is always ready for a challenge or should I say a project either here at home or at work. He likes setting goals and finishing them by the deadline he chooses. He is simply amazing!!!

I was advised to quit my job because all of the cute little kids I worked with kept me running around and they also enjoyed giving me every little illness that they caught. So I ended up sick every week and just could not fight it. I do miss them, but I am really enjoying staying healthy. I have been well now for 3 weeks straight now that I am not working. This has been an accomplishment for me, both staying healthy and staying home and being sane. I enjoy working, and can get bored easily. I have lots of homework to do so I work on that.

It really has been fun preparing for our little one! We really can’t wait to hold him in our arms and just love him lots.
