I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes today. Talk about a letdown. I’ve never failed the one hour screening, never mind had to do the three hour test and then to fail that. I’m so super frustrated. Feels like my body is failing me. I got a glucometer and hope to control it with diet. I […]
Aggie, Millie, Mizzle, and the rest
My day started out about like a normal Saturday. Sit around, drink a cup of tea, with plans for a shower momentarily. I had a friend’s baby shower to attend in the afternoon, plans to clean the house a bit before then. Yesterday, we had triplet baby goats born. I sent Ruby up to check […]
24 weeks… late.
Just in case you wondered what 24 weeks with baby number nine looks like… here you go. I took the photo at 24 weeks, which was a week and a half ago but better late than never. I’m swollen, sore, and can’t wear regular shoes. I drop things often because my hands feel clumsy. Bending […]
Blueberries.
Bear with me while I tell a poop story. I hesitated, but it’s one I don’t want to forget. It’s just funny. I’m almost 26 weeks pregnant. It feels like I’m falling apart. Everything hurts. I swallow a ridiculous amount of vitamins every day. This pregnancy is kicking my tush. I offhandedly mentioned to my husband […]
18 years.
18 years ago today my 18 year old self walked… late… into the sanctuary of a large church in Pompton Plains, New Jersey and slipped into a back row. After the service I went to meet the family that had invited me. We’d been speaking for a few minutes when a young man in a […]
It’s a…
I had my anatomy ultrasound last week and we found out the gender of baby #9. I bought a pack of onesies for the kids to open to find out who is coming this spring. Much excitement around here.
Stellan Wyatt: 4
Today Stellan turns four. He’s been looking forward to this birthday since about this time last year. Always looking for the next birthday. He has yet to mention turning five next year, but it’s coming. It always does. He requested orange cake. I’m not entirely certain what his expectations there are since he’s never had […]
Curveball.
As has become for most of my recent pregnancies, I got to suffer through a kidney infection this week. This one decided to throw a curve ball and was resistant to the first antibiotic prescribed and came back with a vengeance after a day of feeling improved. Take two, hopefully this one works better. I’ve […]
Husky vs. Henhouse
I considered writing the first part of this last week, just because it was so bizarre it seemed good to write it down. Date it. Seemed like it was going somewhere eventually. I’d have never said it would go this way though. Friday morning the kids were outside and a husky showed up in the […]
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! I hope you all had a lovely day celebrating our Savior’s birth. We opened gifts, then played games. I got the kids Old Maid, Go Fish, and Crazy Eights because the younger few had no idea how to play any of them. They’ve turned into big hits here this week. It’s been fun, […]
