  • waiting on eliza....

    eliza2

    So it is really bizarre waiting to give birth to a child. There are a million different things to think about. I won't even try to list any of them becuase it would just be ridiculous. I am very thankful for the friends that have gone before who can offer words of advice and support. But being less than a week away from my due date, I find myself just trying to get a picture of her face in my head. I know we had the fancy ultra sound and really she should look something like the picture above, but really that was 20 weeks ago and like Arlis says mildly alien looking. But I find that I am most excited to see the face that I have been waiting on and meet the child I have been carrying with me for the past few months. I feel like she is my imaginary friend because I am the only one that knows when she has the hiccups or when she is trying to get her foot up into my lung. I am more than ready to share her. I am excited to see how the world recieves our little creation that everyone has worked so hard to make feel welcome already. We had seven showers, it is ridiculous how blessed we are. But here we are waiting together. Knowing how stubborn I am, I am getting a little fearful that she will do things in her own time, much like myself.

  • I am going to England!

    I am going to fly to london tomorrow night. It is crazy to get to go and play in Europe! I have had a crazy couple of weeks with hormones making me cry..... all the time.  I tell you what for someone who used to be completely independent, I have turned helpless since Ted has been gone. Well, not helpless but very aware of how much of a servant Ted is. He really does take care of things for me and I am like most people who have a good life, I take those things for granted.  I am excited to see him and share his passion for the history of England with him.

    In other news, we have slate floors in our kitchen and in our bathroom off of the Kitchen. It looks awesome, but the entire reason I was going to post was to put before and after pictures on here, but I think Ted took the camera cord thing so I can't up load any of the pictures, boo. Imagine it looking nice and that is it.  I will upload them in England maybe. 

    Crystal and Andrew are moving, I am trying to pretend like it is not happening because that is how I handle sad things. However,  she is not letting that happen. So I am going to tell her bye, boo. But she will be back to visit!

  • I am not a good blogger

    just a quick up date on life. I am excited about having my baby girl Eliza. I already have things monogrammed so at this point I would be disappointed with a boy, there would already be lots to take back. I am starting to be over the morning sickness, my momma said it would be about five months, and she was right. Tomorrow is the twenty week ultrasound and I am very excited about seeing her face. It is weird how she is there and I feel her but for the life of me I can't picture her. I hope tomorrow we will get a peek at her face. Pray that she cooperates better than she did for the last ultrasound. 

    The nursury has recently captured my obsession, so this color scheme is a sneek preview into baby Eliza's room. I am hard to please and I can not find any bedding I like. My momma is making a quilt, and Donna Horowitz is going to make the rest of the bedding. I am getting excited.

  • quick me monster update

     DSC01357 DSC_0186

    I know this is one of those xanga things that people hate but I feel like after all of the post surgery posts that I need to keep you people up dated just a little. I am down 53lbs and from the picture it looks like I have changed ethnicities (its fall and I am pale). Anyway, last thursday I had a good report from the doctor and I am feeling better all of the time. Thanks for the prayers and encouragement. I promise this will be the last me monster post for a while.
