I had the distinct honor of going on not one but two field
trips last week. Ironically, (sarcasm
for those who live around here) they were both to Cedar Hill Farm.
Feeding the animals….

The Beast
Sometimes topics just need a blog of their own. There is no reason to share it with other
topics and such. They just need some
attention ALL to themselves. I think my
pregnancy wins today.
Have you ever heard someone say that a person has on “blinders”
or “beer goggles”? If not, that means
that the person isn't seeing clearly, or doesn't see things the way normal
people with clear vision would see them.
I think I have that problem. I’m
pretty sure I see myself differently than all of y’all see me, and this is NOT
to my advantage. Apparently, I think I
am smaller than I really am. Gaining 12
pound is gaining 12 pounds and that does not mean that you can wear normal, non-pregnant
clothes. The sooner I realize that the
better off I’ll be.
Now I do a lot of bitching (excuse the language) about being
pregnant because quite frankly I don’t think it’s all puppies dogs and
pancakes. With Ford it was smooth
sailing, but we have hot rough waters and I am over it and ready for Cake to
join the group. I promise I love my kids
and would do anything for them, but the incubation period is taking a toll on
me.
I have a hernia and it’s pretty intense. I had this lovely guest when I was preggo
with Bitty, but it’s come back with vengeance, this go round. I can stand on my feet for about 10 minutes
and then the little beast pops out and causes discomfort. Then to make matters even worse it causes
blockage and my blood can’t flow properly down south and I begin to swell, and
the pain just shoots out like a beating heart.
Yeah, you guessed it….misery!!!!!
The doctor pretty much said it will get worse the bigger I get and there
is nothing they can do about it at this time.
I will have to have surgery to repair it after the baby arrives. HOT DOG!
This is how I get dressed in the AM... A chair because of the hernia, a heating pad around my neck because who knows what I have done to myself, and Bitty in my lap.
I went to see my doctor about the beast (hernia) and the back
pain I am experiencing which was is caused from the baby being so low. She suggested that I buy a belly band to
support to stomach and back. And that I
did. When I was in Motherhood Maternity
I decided to buy some yoga pants, because I needed them…right, and purchase a
new bra. Sorry men… I don’t even know
why y’all read my blog anyway. Well, the
saleslady tried to convince me that I should be sleeping in my bra. I kind of gave her the stink eye like you
have some nerve to be suggesting how I should spend my sacred time of day. Not that I get a lot of sleep between Bitty
waking up and the frequent trips to the toilet, but a bra too???... No thanks!!! She went on to say that it was important to sleep in a bra to keep your
girls perky. She got the stink eye. I laughed and reminded her of gravity and
that I had already spent a total of 25 months breast feeding my boys and there
wasn't anything with any perk on this body anymore. You said “For better or worse”, Trey!!! I will definitely get asked what in the world was I thinking for writing this blog once he reads it. I am just keeping it real... remember it's not all puppy dogs and pancakes!
The Representative went pheasant hunting for 5 nights in
South Dakota last week. This is how we
slept while he was gone. Looks like the
boys slept good… me not so much. I guess
that’s why I need the heating pad.
I asked Trey why he didn't just stay at home and hunt pheasant
here. He gave me a look and said we don’t
have them in Senatobia, and South Dakota was like the pheasant hunting capital
or something. I reminded him that God
put him in Mississippi and he needed to be content hunting a squirrel or
something. He said, “Oh I see you’re in
one of your moods!!!” Yep, he got a
vacation and I got a crick in my neck!
Fair enough!

Gets my motor running
Saturday was another home game for the Rebels. We defeated UT, which puts us at 7-0!!! I wasn’t necessarily 100% gung-ho about the
trek over to Oxford, but I decided that in a few short months I will be pretty
much home-bound with Little Miss No-Name, so I better take advantage of outings
while I can. You feel me???
The boys were stoked about going and asked all morning when
we would leave. We bathed, packed our
belongings, and headed over. I promise
my kids do have good home training, but sometimes when we venture out in public
it is questionable. They spent at least
the first 30 minutes playing underneath the food tables. This is more understandable for a 2 year old,
but Ford was pushing it being 5.5 years old.
Finally I said, enough!
House Update....
The house is still coming.
This week has been a big week.
They finished bricking the house, are painting the brick, put the
columns up on the back porch, are bricking the back porch floor, and installing
the sheetrock. Boy is sheetrock a nasty
job. I am sure that breathing that mess
can’t be healthy for the workers at all.
The front of the house…
Fingers are crossed that we are in BEFORE "Cake" comes!
