Everything seems to bother me lately!

So this weekend was a skids weekend. Started w/DH going to get the skids on Saturday. He went to their sports games, and then sd9 had a pizza party to go to w/the coach and team. DH left the house at about 9 am and did not get back to our place until 4pm. whatever.. I let that one go...

Then sd9 keeps playing w/a loose tooth. I ask her not to do this in the living room, as the couch is light colored, and figured it would bleed if she kept it up. This will come up later..

Why does she have to call, when its NOT about the skids!??!!?

So last night, DH and I are just finishing dinner, and his cell rings. He answers, starts answering questions cryptically (he was using military lingo) and then he kept trying to get off of the phone... so I KNEW who it was.

I asked him, what did she want? and why the code talk? he said she was calling about the skids, and then asked a question about what letters mean in the military... like C is Charlie.

A coworkers statement!

So, I had just told a coworker that I was pregnant (literally just now at lunch) and she asked where the new baby would be sleeping. I explained that the skids were going to share a room, and the baby would get the other. She knows the skids are a boy and a girl. Here is how the convo went

Hormones??? you be the judge!

So we had the skids again this weekend. no big. I wasnt feeling great, and ended up relaxing and watching a lot of tv.. DH takes the skids home... he left at 5pm, he didnt get back until 830pm. He told me he was picking up dinner on the way home. It normally takes 2 - 2.5 hrs for the drop offs/pick ups.. none of which she helps with. He left an hour late, which then put him into the construction traffic that starts after 7pm. Sooooo he calls me up..

How did YOU and your DH tell your skids you were pregnant?!!?

I am trying to think of how we will tell them. I want to do it in a way that is fun for them, to try and get them excited about the idea.

How did you tell your skids you were pregnant.. also, how did you surprise other family members w/the news? I am looking for your creative ideas!!!

I remember awhile back researching the information on whether or not my dh needed to provide bedrooms for each of his two children in our home. (this came about during another pregnancy that was not viable).. I have had some ask me for this document, and just found it while cleaning out my files.

Mixed News!!! Good and Not so good on the Pregnancy Front

Hi everyone.. as promised, I am going to update you on the latest dr. appt I had. This u/s showed that I am pregnant w/twins. That said, one is thriving and the other is not. I heard the heartbeat of baby A this morning in the dr's office and I CRIED.. omg.. its was the most amazing sound I have ever heard. Baby B, they could not detect a heartbeat. They said that Baby B is about a week behind Baby A.

So.. the good news, is that at least one is viable. the not so good news is that I may lose one of them. I hope that is not the case...

SCHOOL CLOTHES AND SUPPLIES... ARGGG!!!!!

So.. we had the skids this weekend. A couple we know stopped by, and started chatting w/the skids yesterday. They asked if the skids were all set for school w/their supplies and clothes.. (we never thought of asking.. not sure why!?!) and sd9 says, no.. We have to wait til everything goes on sale. The only things on sale right now are tank tops.

Ok.. our friends looked horrified, I was embarassed.. Not sure dh heard it. So SD9 goes on... about saving money and how much things costs... yadda yadda yadda..

I spent the night on the couch!

And let me tell you why. Dh and I have been trying to have a baby for a year and 8 mths now. We have had 3 miscarriages in a 9 month span.. the most recent being the end of June. Each of those times, the home tests did not register a pregnancy, but the blood work did. The blood work had also indicated that the pregnancies were not viable since pretty much the beginning of each. Fast forward to this month..

So tired of 2nd wife status

So.. as some of you know, my DH is in the US military... I have been dubbed in their system as wife #2 for 3.5 yrs now. There is even a notation NEXT TO my name. DH hasnt been married to the ex since early 2001. YET, he forwards me an email today as there is something wrong w/MY date of birth. (huh?) There is a form that needs to be filled out, as there is a conflict in two different systems.
