Seen

August 14, 2009 by Elaine

Yesterday morning we all went to my OB’s office and after the cool gel was applied, saw the baby girl again. The boys were in the room (I’ve never had kids in my ultra sounds before) and although I’m sure they (especially Little G) had NO idea what was on the screen, they did pretty…

I Think I Could Set a Drink on It

August 11, 2009 by Elaine

My belly is big. I know, I know. I’m 32 weeks pregnant so it’s gonna be. But seriously, this time, I feel Bigg-ER than either of the other two times. Oh and did you catch that? I said 32 WEEKS pregnant. And since a c-section* will more-than-likely be scheduled the week before my due date…

We Interrupt This Regulary Scheduled Program…

July 29, 2009 by Elaine

… to talk about The Toddler. Y’all remember I have kids, right? With all the BlogHer craziness I’d kinda forgotten myself (of course I didn’t actually forget, you know that, right?), although FULLY reminded when I returned home to the multiple personalities that comprise a two-year old. I missed his adorable smile, his sweet toddler…

What We Pass on to Them

May 19, 2009 by Elaine

I’m a nail biter. Always have been and always will be, at least off and on. Right now, all my nails have “a little white” on the ends but on any give day they could have no white or twice to three times as much as they do now. You just never know with me….

Just Punch me in the Gut Why Dontcha

December 17, 2008 by Elaine

I was blind-sided today. I don’t like being blind-sided. I like things to run on time and smoothly and as expected and to be “normal.” Especially where my children are concerned. All that went out the window today while at Little G’s (one month late) 18-month check up. I knew he was sick and most…

My Chest is Heavy (Unfortunatley no, not like that!)

November 13, 2008 by Elaine

I don’t “vent” on here very often. It’s just not what I am about. But today. I need to vent. Yesterday morning I yelled at The B Man. We all yell on occasion, right? But let me back up a little. … We had storms on Monday night and Tim is gone AGAIN. The B…

It Was the Last Time & I Didn’t Even Know It

October 2, 2008 by Elaine

Sometime last Saturday was the last time Little G nursed. As far as I can tell it was the last time EVER. Today he didn’t even try to go there. And now, I am crying. It’s the end of something that at first I wasn’t even sure I wanted. The end of something I realized…

Stolen Moments

August 19, 2008 by Elaine

I grabbed you up in my arms as your chubby baby hands reached up for me. One little tear was coming down your face. It was time. Time for you to sleep and be rejuvenated. We made our way into the hall that we walk down every morning while I made circles on your back…

Oh Please Come to my Pity Party!

June 30, 2008 by Elaine

I have a lot going on in my head these days and I can’t seem to find peace lately. Which really kind of stinks. It doesn’t help that “you-know-who” is back again this week (not sure what is going on with my body at this point) and it’s even worse than last week. I see…
