life in general

Is it twenty-ten or two thousand ten? Good question. I have no idea. I think I may have heard a debate on Good Morning America about it. Either way, I feel as though it has been much too long since I have been able to write. Not that my life is exciting in any way. Some times I pray for a day maybe even a week or normal. It sounds refreshing. Although, I must say the abnormal around here isn't so bad.

Here's the best I can do today because even as I sit here writing my mother is upstairs in our house with the sickness that has been going around. We have conveniently named it 'The Plague".

*NEW HOUSE: Ahhh...its a dream. Its warm, its cozy, it has a fireplace that Greg and I tested out with some of our friends over the holiday. We roasted marshmallows and cooked us some 'smores. 'Smores in the winter are the BEST! Truly we are so blessed, to have had such a wonderful gift given to us (being able to move in before Christmas).

*Christmas/ New Year: We had a great Christmas, although late Christmas night Rowen started to get sick. She had a sinus infection that lasted for quite awhile. On New Year's Eve, I came down with "The Plague". It was terrible. Then Rowen got it and then Greg got it. Both Greg and I had to go to the ER for IV's and medicine and mostly because we are wimps. So...I am having a hard time remembering the holiday. It was amazing seeing Rowen open presents. I was surprised she was so into it.

* BIB ( Baby in Belly): Oh, Joy! This baby in my belly has given me a run for my money. Had an ultrasound on Monday and many things came of it. First, we had the worst technician ever. Not sure if she was really trained. I felt bad for her but worse for us. Every time she looked at something on the baby there was a comment of " oh, well that doesnt seem right or I cant really see the heart, its really small". Which, of course, scared Greg and I. I went for my appointment on Wednesday ( this was to start the Progesterone Shot) and ended up seeing a Doctor. YAH! Well, turns out life just got that much more complicated. Looks like the placenta is really low so they are going to be watching that very very carefully. I was told NO traveling until this baby comes out.

****Here is the really great news though, I have to go every week to get this shot and every week I get to see a doctor. So if anything were to start happening they would be able to catch it and catch it fast!
_____follow up ultra sound on the 18th. Maybe we'll be able to see what flavor this baby is???

Oh, 2010.....I hope your a good one!!!!
