We're Still Here!

I have no idea why updating my blog has been so difficult in the last week but I think about it all the time! Soon, I'll have pictures of the baby's area of the kids room that we are diligently working on. Three kids in one room is tough. It's given Derrek and me a new obsession to somehow get ourselves into a bigger home (whether we add on to this one or find a new one). We've picked a fantastic time to be obsessed since no one's really loaning money to people that can put about $1 down but we're focused on the task. Derrek hasn't really been feeling well and I think it seems worse than it is because he really expected to be completely on his feet by now. He was warned but I don't think he really believed it. The kids are getting ready for Halloween and Cash's arrival. We've had a soccer game for Blake and tomorrow night Ashley starts playing on a local volleyball league. Cash is still happy to be where he is and making no efforts toward the exit. My doctor told me Friday that as far as she can tell up to this point, we should have a relatively normal labor and delivery. Currently, neither of us would like to induce for any reason but that could change in a week or two. I hope to have a sonogram if I make it to the due date just in case he's a big boy. I may want to get him out of there at that point. Then again, maybe I won't want to know! But seriously, that counter thing to the right is freaking me out!!! I never thought I'd be so close!

My goal and promise this week is to get pictures up! The kids' room, soccer, volleyball, my belly, maybe even Derrek if he'll let me. Just don't give up on us!

Relax and breath! It all happens when it happens and you will never be completely caught up. Just remember that today is the only day that these things will happen in your life. Tomorrow brings something new and different no matter how minute it is, it is still different, so cherish today. Cash in your tummy today is a good thing because soon he won't be there, and you will be saying, remember when I was pregnant the first time? One day it will all be a vague memory. You will wish with all of your heart to go back to that place and time and the sad part is you just can't! 25, 22, and 15 years ago I was there, and my eyes fill with tears when I think about how time just slips into the next day, the next week, the next month, the next year,the next decade and on and on. Be thankful for this very day and hold on to it.
