31 Days Left


The day draws closer that I will be a mother of five children. Yikes!! The other kids are becoming really excited. They have all made a sock baby (filled with beans) that they constantly carry around with them. They practice holding the baby's head, wrapping it in a blanket and burping it. They even made a day care to take the baby to when they are at school. I am sure that they are going to be a big help when the real baby arrives.

Last Friday I had a doctor's appointment with an ultrasound. They doctor thinks that she is almost seven pounds (like they know) and that she will have a big head. The plan is to have me be induced between two to three weeks early - depending on my platelet count. I feel wonderful and keep telling myself that I am loving every moment of being pregnant.

Christmas Eve




Posted by Picasa
Every Christmas Eve the family acts out the nativity. It is one of my kids favorite things to do at Christmas time. We have to use our imagination when it comes to the costumes - but that is part of the fun. The tradition started many many years ago when I was young. I loved acting it out with my sibling and cousins. It was something that I always looked foward to! I loved being the inkeeper or an angel.
