Welcome to 2013!!

So I apologize I haven't written for a while. There has been times when I thought of doing it, but that's all I did . . . think about it. I was either too lazy or too busy to post the goings on in my life for a while.

Christmas was great!! Except the few days before where Jason and Alyx were both sick and I was trying to take care of them while not getting sick myself. Then after they were better, I felt like I had the flu, and couldn't eat much because my little baby boy was scrunching up my stomach and left no room at all for comfort and spent ALOT of time in the bathroom. :( But ya Christmas was great. lol. Jason surprised me by giving me the Bourne movies, which I love. :) I gave him a super really cool remote control helicopter, and we got Alyx some animal magnets for the fridge and an elephant toy that blows balls out of the trunk kinda thing.

A little after Christmas, we lost access to our warm water due to our pipes being frozen because of the cold and I mean FREAKING COLD air. :( So for six days we went without it, not fun at all. No showers, no washing dishes, limited meals because the lack of clean dishes and frustration all around. Let me tell you, not fun at all.

New Year's was great. Jason and I watched a movie, and we went to bed before 12. No way, could I even try to stay up that late. It's hard to sleep in the night anyway, why am I going to lose sleep in my pregnant state by choice? So that's how we welcomed in the new year. lol. Yep! We were sleeping. :) Ha ha suckers!!!

Jason started his new schedule at school and we are both loving it. He actually can stay home long enough for me to make him breakfast now!! He also gets to spend more time with us, his family! Can you imagine?!? Ya, so we're pretty happy about that.

Last week, we had a scare. We thought I had maybe gone into labor early. It was kinda hard to tell. I was super SUPER mega tight, more so than the braxton hicks but what was really the scary part was . . . it was difficult for me to breathe. Like it felt like my lungs had no room to take all the air in that they needed. So for five minutes or so, I was trying to be calm and relax but terrified out of my mind that it was so difficult to breathe. Jason was trying hard to help me to be comfortable. But I couldn't because I was in so much pain from the lack of oxygen, really the tightness wasn't painful at all, just super tight and uncomfortable. Obviously I didn't go into labor and everything was fine, but it was just a little wake up call.

Now, today is two weeks away from my due date. I am feeling pretty calm and prepared for going into labor any time now. I am excited to meet my new little boy and to hold him in my arms. I do have certain days in my mind that I think would be really cool if he were to be born on them, but really will be happy whenever he does come. :) I can't wait to see my Wilber boys together. My men, my family. All together.
