I woke up this morning in alot of pain. My back was hurting pretty bad. But hey I am 32 weeks pregnant, so that is to be expected. Around 8:00 is hurting even more, but I brush off again as normal. I do school with the kids and I am really uncomfortable. I can't sit still, I keep moving trying, to find a comfortable position. At 10:00 it has moved to my stomach also. I realize that I am having back labor, so I take my medicine to stop the contractions. An hour later I can feel the side affects of the medicine and I am still in a lot of pain. I go lie down and try to relax. They ease up but don’t fully go away. I call my doctor and he tells me to stay off my feet, take a warm bath, keep taking my medicine and pretty much puts me on bed rest for the rest of the day/night. Oh what joy…bed rest. So that is my current situation. I get to try and relax with 3 kiddos demanding my attentions, a list of things that I need to do, and knowing that I have nothing ready for the baby, no bags packed, no clothes ready, nothing! Hopefully I will be back to my normal self tomorrow, contractionless and able to get stuff done. I really hope I am able to carry this baby till April. Oh yeah and we still don’t have a name for this poor baby, reason #102 I hope I can carry her till April.
Well that’s all my rantings for now. Ta-ta

When did it happen??
When did my kids grow up??
My answer: When I blinked.
Really….it happens that fast. One day they are cute, chubby, ooey-gooey babies and then I blinked. My first baby just went to his first concert. My second baby got her ears pierced over the weekend. My third baby is going to be 1 year old in 4 days. While my heart swells with pride as I watch them grow, it is also breaking.
I can’t believe that I have been a mommy for 7 years. It just seems like yesterday I was meeting my Little Man for the first time. I never believed in love at first sight until that moment. I still see that little squirmy baby when I look at Anakin, he just won’t let me call him “my baby” anymore. I told him he will always be “my little man”, no matter how tall or how old he gets. He is fine with that title for now
My Princess Stasia just turned 6. Gabe and I took her to the mall Friday night for her birthday. She got her ears pierced, she was such a big girl. She didn’t cry or anything. Gabe and I were on the verge of tears for her but she did fine (better than us) J After that we surprised her by taking her to Build-a-Bear. She picked a Hello Kitty “bear” and had a blast making it. She too has made it clear that she is no longer my baby. She said she is a big girl and will be 16 her next birthday, (this was when she turned 5). She is now 6 going on 16. I cry when I watch “Father of the Bride”. The scene the night before her wedding, when she playing basketball with her dad and he has flashbacks of all the years he has had with her, makes me cry like a baby every time. That will be me with Stasia, one day I will have flashbacks of my baby the night before her wedding and I will wonder where all the years have gone.
The hardest thing for me right now is facing the fact that my Sunshine Sorsha will be 1 year old in 4 days. Has it really been a year?? I swear, just the other day she was discovering her hands and those cute, fat little feet. Then I blinked and she was crawling. I blinked again and she is walking across the living room all by herself. Where did the year go??
Soon my fourth baby will be joining us. Then I will blink and they will all be gone and I will be left asking “When did my kids grow up” and I will know, it was when I blinked.
