House of Many

Stessful day.

It has been a bit of a stressful week. Trying to get our finances in order, getting ready for baby, taking care of a three year old. Carpooling my 7 year old and 17 year old. Jeremy was taking himself and Kaitlin to school every day, but there he gotten into an accident. He ended up being blinded by another car coming from the opposite direction and poor Jeremy couldn't see and lost control of the car and end up in a ditch in a field. He wasn't hurt, Thank God. He was very shook up though. Fortunately, the car is being fixed and I think Jeremy has calmed down, but he won't be driving again for a while. He is now terrified to drive. Which can be a good thing. We just don't want it to make him never try again. We'll just chalk this one up as another hard lesson (hopefully) learned. The entire house is a sleep, but me....Woman's work is never done and still isn't. I feel like the rabbit in the tunnel that gets longer and longer.

As for baby...Growing, growing...this is a good thing. Just a few more weeks...Better get crackin' heehee

Closer to baby due date

Only a few short weeks and we'll have another baby Stowers in the house. I'm not sure I should be nervous or excited. I'm a little of both. I feel like I'm pretty much ready for this baby to come. On the other hand, I'm starting over...that tends to cause a bit of nervousness. However, once that baby gets here it will be all good. I feel good, just a bit blimpier (I'm sure that isn't a word) Everyone says I look good, I'm not sure what they are looking at. Dexter is fine, until I call him and tell him, "Honey, its time..." The panic will creep its way in. As for the kids: Jeremy doesn't really care one way or the other. He would like to have a little brother, but he does a lot of his own thing and what more can I say. Kaitlin is very excited especially if it is a boy. She really wants a baby brother. I think she thinks that things will somehow be different if she has a brother. Heee heee she is in for a rude awakening....Tyler is trilled now that she is going to be a big sister. The countdown is 26 days until due date and 21 days until possible induction...However, the possibilties are endless.

Countdown to next Baby Stowers.

Well, the count down to the next family member is under way. Due date: 4/15/2006. Wow, less than one month away. I just don't think this baby will let me wait that long though. People have asked me if I'm getting excited. Excited, nervous, etc. Another baby...starting over....exciting, yet scarey. Dexter has been doing a lot of nesting lately. Quite a bit more than mom here. I came home last Saturday morning after working all night. Apparently, I wasn't the only one working all night. My darling husband cleaned out every cupboard in the entire kitchen. Scrubbed everything clean until we had no soap left for any other cleaning in the house. Not only did he clean, but he also rearranged everything. Whew...he made me tired watching him. I have all the baby clothes clean (hope its a girl) Hee hee. 98% girl clothes. Oh well, I guess the baby will wear lots of pink the first few weeks regardless. We (or rather I ) opted not to find out this time, so it is all a guessing game. I think it will be fun, Dexter doesn't agree though. (Imagine that) I'm starting to get a little curious myself, but not enough to rush and have another ultrasound. We certainly can't change our order now. Ha ha
