Yay ME!!!

Dreams
So I've done something big. I've been addicted to an online forum for the last 4 years. I haven't gone more than a day at a time in most of that time without checking there, and many, many days I've spent way too much time reading and posting there. It's had it's great support, but it's also been a problem for me in getting other things done, and now it's finally time for me to move on. So... I've kicked it! I've now gone I believe 10 days away, let me double check that, nope it's 12 days, off of there!!! WhaahhhhOOOO! I admit I have been there once. I went back to inform my birth group (a bunch of other mommies that were due the same week as I…

We went on vacation!

Aiden, Baby Joey, Dreams, Family Fun, Kevin and I, Michael, Pictures
We went down to the beach and enjoyed a night on the ocean in Surfside Texas. Joey's first vacation! We stayed in a little place called "Cedar Sands Motel" not the nicest place, but not bad for the area and right on the beach. The bathroom was HUGE! We had a kitchenette and a large table with 4 chairs. They even had the Disney Channel. We woke up early (twice, LOL, Michael and Aiden couldn't go back to sleep when Joey woke us up for his 3 AM feeding), and went out and experienced the sunrise. It was breath taking! And not just cause we (mostly Kevin) had to keep running after Aiden. There were these clouds on the horizon that almost looked like a whole island out there between…

Happy Leap Year! and Kiddo Tag!

Aiden, Baby Joey, Dreams, Games, Holidays, Kevin and I, Michael
This is my 6th leap year, it's so fun! I feel the need to do something special. and it's a Friday too!!! Whoo hoo! This morning I got up and for once I wasn't dragging, don't know why, maybe we slept better lastnight, or I just had a surprisingly happy morning. Usually mornings consist of me wishing it wouldn't come yet, and then dreading the morning routine (taking Michael and Kevin to school and work, and then getting the boys back in if I don't run errands on the way home). I just have a really rough time with mornings... I have very vivid dreams. Very. Lastnight I dreamed that we were buying a house. Not just any house. This house had about 8 bedrooms, almost all of which had…

Dreams, Dreams, Dreams, all these crazy dreams.

Dreams, Pregnancy
I have very vivid dreams anyway, but something about being pregnant makes them even more so. I've spent many nights in my childhood home as an adult, away at "camp" (like the summer camp kids get sent to in the movies), exploring the old Rawlings family farm (my maiden name, and the farm I lived on as a small child, that my uncle ran until about 7 years ago), house shopping, and many more overly detailed strange scenario's, that seem completely real and plausible until hours after I've started my day. I can usually recall most details of these dreams until days later. I keep dreaming of having this baby in my arms, not surprising since I spend most of my days with at least part of my thoughts focusing…
