First night alone!

1 comments
Happy Friday! Well, today is the day that Thomas is taking off to go fishing "with the guys".. They should all have a fun time, although I am really glad I am not being asked to sit on a very rocking boat getting seasick while smelling dirty fish for 11 hours.. I think I am just going to stay home and get caught up with my Oprahs and have some red wine.
Work is ridiculously nuts right now because they are reorganizing the entire management tier. For those of you that dont know, I work as an Underwriter at The Hartford **have you seen Along Came Polly - I do what Ben Stiller is**. They have eliminated some positions and are joining the ranks of the rest of America's Corporate world of layoffs... It should be very interesting in the coming weeks.
The girls are doing great. Addison was in a sort of "I am a terror" mood last night and tested both Thomas and I's patience... We arent quite sure if she is getting as long of a nap as she really needs at her dayschool... But we made it through - got her fed, tagged teamed the girls for their baths (me with Addison and Thomas with Kirstynn) and then finally dropped to watch I love the New Millenium after the girls finally fell asleep.....
Wish me luck on sleeping in my bed alone tonight... It's been a long time...

Well, The "new baby" - Kirstynn Jaan - is now 4 months old and doing so great. Her checkup showed 50% on weight and over 100% on height. I guess that part will take after Thomas too. I will add a few pictures... She had her first tastes of rice cereal and did pretty well, although we did have to wash the cover right after (or Thomas did).


Addison got her very first "boo boo" day before yesterday - fell down outside of Nana Lady's house (so many Nan's so they get called by their dogs names)... and scratched her knee. It was very dramatic and she had to have juice and a book and her favorite show in order for it to feel better.


Thomas is going fishing with my stepdad, his dad, his brother Peter and his friend Robert on Friday night until Saturday night so it will be my first night all alone with both girls.. should be fun!!!

Seriously - only a little more than 3 weeks left

So I am sooo bad at this. I cannot believe the pregnancy is just about over and I havent written a thing. I think this happens when you have a very active very bossy 2 and a half year old at home. Ha ha!
Either way - I am almost there. My last day of work is Feb 4th and I cant wait to have some time alone in my house to get the rest of the baby stuff ready. The crib is up and the swing is clean and the carseat is ready. And that is about it...
I have been having the most intense Braxton Hicks ever in the last week and keep thinking that there is no way that this little girl is going to stay put for almost another month... I have a bet with Thomas that it comes early... We will see I suppose. If she was healthy and ready I would be tempted to say - bring it on... but then I lose the 2 weeks of vacation that I desperately need to get everything finalized...
