I have not posted in probably 5 months or so on here. I am officially 15 days and counting from my expected due date and am excited beyond belief.

Things with BM are now settled. We worked out agreement that left us 21 days shy of having SS on a 50/50 time schedule and child support was reduced from $606 a month to $236 a month. BM has stated several times that H should be ashamed of himself for taking that money from his son's mouth..puhhhhhleasssse! Guess what BM when my baby gets here we qualify again for another reduction that would drop us to a measley $167 a month and H wants to file for it too! All of our pickups and drop offs with SS have been at school. We pick him up from school and drop him back there. That has made a complete world of difference in things! SS is happier and BM has been good. She did flair up over holidays in a whaling crying fit that she had put up with H and I shit all year and we cost here everything....oh cry me a river! H was baffled as to the break down since everything had been so well. I told him I suspect it is due to the approaching birth of our baby. She has yet to make any comments about the baby unless it is to break it off in H. H does not understand why she would care I say as do my other female friends that she is having hard time becasue she is only one to hold that child bond with you and now you are having another and she knows how much you love your son and knows you will love your daughter the same and too she has no main control anymore she has lost it plus in a sick way she still loves you. But all in all we let her flair up roll off our back and consulted our lawyer about how to handle to vague wording of the christmas schedule.

I had no purpose in posting today other than to say things have been good. I am excited for my baby to be here as is H and SS! She is going to have SS and H wrapped around her finger so tightly before night falls on the day she is born. Being pregnant with her and stepping back and allowing H to handle all things with SS such as homework, getting ready, chores etc has made life so much easier and now we no have to see BM unless it is summer or dr appointment makes life even sweeter!

hey to Bellacita - how is your baby? Hope you all had a Happy New Year and hope you all are looking forward to a good year...I know I am!
