It's the weekend!  Yeah! Feeling:  TRYING to relax... Weather:  NICE out!  Sunny and breezy and warm!

Here is a photo of Silas from last week getting ready to go to church…my little man!

All dressed up for church

Anywho, Allan ended up taking me to Red Lobster last night.  I was sortof perterbed however when the only steak sauce they have there is A1.  Yuck!  I like worchestersire thank you very much and I put it on EVERYTHING.  I have 3 bottles in my house at ALL times.  LOL  Never wanna run out.  I mean, come on, who ever heard of a steakhouse with only 1 type of sauce available?  Hurumft.  Never mind this was a seafood place.  LOL  We went to Texas Roadhouse first as it is pretty fair on pricing, considering the others…but the wait there was 2 hours!  No thanks.  So instead I go to a place with no worchestersire sauce.  Do NOT do this to a tired and cranky pregnant woman, peeople! 

LOL

Anywho, Last night I prayed and prayed and Allan prayed for me as well that I would get a good nights sleep.  I did, thank the Lord.  I hope tonight is the same as tomorrow is a big day.  I have to cook for a church potluck and since we are eating there I will be at the church with the family ALL day from 8:30am when we leave here till 11pm at least tomorrow evening.  *sigh*  I am pooped already…

Here is the photos I promised of Simeon’s outfits I got him.  I may put the blue outfit from ltma on him for his hospital photos and bring him home in the KissyKissy sleeper set.  I love that brand.  They use the finest combed cotten and everything is so stinking soft!

Simeon's Bring Home Outfit 

I sold my old stroller…it was really nice and only used a couple of times so I am using that money to help with the 3 major purchases I have left…the sling, the double stroller and the diaperbag.  I am truly excited about the diaper bag.  I love different bags but I need a big one and as I showed you all before  exp #1 & exp #2 , they get pretty pricy!  This Misti lady is extreemly resonable and has good feedback as well.  Hopefully I do not scare her off!  LOL

And oh my merciful goodness…am I like TOTALLY getting hit by spam.  TTL for Akismet to catch it.  it is all naughty sex crud leaving links…jeemaniese!  It is awful!  I had over 300 yesterday!  Anyone else getting hit like that?

Ok, gonna finish my red cream soda and hit the sack for a nap.  Just put Silas down before I got on here so I better get a nap while I can!!!

Start of the weekend!  Feeling:  going out with my better half  Weather: Cold, rainy, cloudy and gloomy

Well, I think I spoke too soon.  I have not been getting any sleep at all since I last posted.  I was bawling last night around 5am and I think got myself so upset I started hyperventalating.  (sheesh, I know that is spelled wrong but I am too pooped to care or correct it)  Anywho, I go to the OB again next Wed and am going to ask him about something I heard about my magnesium being low and causing the violent RLS.  It is like my whole body, especially my arms and legs jerk out of control and feel like creepy crawlies are all over me every minute.  If I move I get relief about 45 seconds before it does it again.  I feel like I am really complaining and I am sorry but I feel awful.

Still in revival at Edinburgh so Allan is sending the girls to church and taking me out to dinner with Silas…to get me out.  I dunno where we are going…I gotta go get ready…

Yesterday I went to a boutique in Bloomington and got Simeon’s ‘Bring Home Outfit’.  I will take a pic and show you when I get some more time.  Also think I have a diaper bag commissioned off ebay sortof like I want for HALF the price!  Yeah!

Ok, gotta go get ready.  Pray for me, will ya?

It's Monday! Feeling: Happy & Blessed  Weather: Warm and cloudy...sposed to storm...

I wake up this morning, do my regular stuff…get the girls started in their day, make sure Silas and the girls and I eat breakfast, pick up a little from Sunday…then a couple of hours later try to check my email…and guess what I get in my inbox?  This theme!  Yeah!  Stephie over at Odd Pixels made it for me special!  Wasn’t that sweet of her???  I love this layout too!  Specially since I do not see it around much…and I like to be different…though I do like the same things like others…like Karen’s new work and Carolines and whatnot…I am gonna have to look into a theme switcher so you can see all the cool themes and graphics!  LOL  I better get this all done now, right?  Once Simeon gets here I have a feeling, this will not be an option…LOL  Yup, definitely need a theme switcher…LOL

Finally got some sleep the last two nights.  Praise the lord. 

My mil is really sick and in the hospital again.  She has ovarian cancer…had the surgery and doing chemo but is constantly in and out of the hospital…poor thing.  It breaks my heart and we have really been praying for her.  I would appreciate your prayers as well.  Her name is Pat.

Ok, gonna go look into theme switchers…

 Feeling: Taking Pics! Weather:Sunny and pleasant!

Got a pic for you of my 8 month preggo belly…I do not like this pic but I am not in the mood to take another one right now…so deal with it!  LOL

Monileigh at 8 Months Preggo with Simeon

I feel absolutely huge but I know I am not really.  I think it is just the discomfort and not being able to breathe!  LOL  I love being pregnant…don’t let me bickering fool ya!

Had an AWFUL night last night.  Jerking all over (rls for you who do not know…I think brought on by my pregnancy)   I was bawling by 5:50am…If this happens again I am going to read my Bible…at least get some devotions in while I jerk around.  LOL

Allan and I dropped the girls off at the home church last night for Revival while we went to get a few things for Simeon.  I got a package of onesies, socks and some bottles.  So I can mark that off my list.  I also got my baby book finally!  LOL  I got it on sale for $8 instead of $25!  Yeah!  So I filled that up to date.

Anywho, that is it for now.  Need to run a few errands…

Hump day! Feeling: jibber jabberish Weather: Windy, mild and sunny and partly cloudy...

Howdy ho.  Before you do anything else, hit refresh in your browser…redid my theme…

Went to the ob today.  Everything is the same!  yee-haw!  I am still at a 2 and completely thinned out…I am 33 weeks.  So this is good!  Almost home free.  35 being the magic number.  (weeks that is)  Still on bedrest though.  Still not sleeping.  The RLS is really getting bad.  I am constantly twitching VIOLENTLY, people.  It is awful and like every minute.  I hit Allan upside the head, the chest and various other regions that I will not go into detail…if it was not so exhausting, it would actually be hilarious!  (almost)  I am praying the rls goes away after Simeon is born. 

Allan came home with a dozen roses for me. Wasn’t that sweet? He is awful at remembering things and especially Valentines Day but he is so GOOD at doing spontanious things like this…this is like the 4th time in 3 months he brought me home flowers. Made my day!

Still have a few things to get for Simeon…I think we should be ok…I am not too worried but I get out of whack when things are not ordered and prepared.  I think this may be my ocd.  I have to have order and things in place.  I have to have control over situations.  I think a lot of that is due from my past and living with Allan and a housefull of kids has helped mellow me out but I still worry about it.  LOL  I still have to get a baby book, a diaper bag, a sling, sheets, onesies, sleepers, blankets, drawers (just the plastic kind to put iin the closet) and double stroller.  I found a double stroller cheaper than ebay at Babies R Us…so I think we may try to do that hopefully in a few weeks.  I also want to get some new bottles.  I nurse but I also suppliment and have bottles just in case.  I like Avent and want to try the Dr. Browns bottles…anyone tried those yet?  Are they any good?  I do like Avent…

Anywho…

Was listening to some music online…I tell ya, I LOVE Alison Krauss.  She sings like an angel.  Wow.  I would love to harmonize with that woman!  I love harmony and singing.  I also like Norah Jones’ music.  I love all kinds and pretty much keep it to Gospel and Worship, Choir and generally all things Christian but there are a few people like the aforementioned and also Kenny G…that I love!  Speaking of which, he is like totally awesome!  I love his music.  Wow.  Gives me chills.  Check out his website…and have your sound on…

We had a guy who has been coming to church since we started going to Bloomington, get baptized in Jesus’ Name Sunday night.  We are so excited!  Yeah!  We also have went from 2 in Sunday school to 16!  God is so good!  I go on Sunday nights right now usually.  Allan and the kidlins are all gone for tonights’ service and I am here with my feet up yacking away and listening to Kenny G…LOL  When Simeon gets here I will get to go full time to church again!  ;-)  

Ok, I think I am gonna go get in the tub, read my book and then hit the hey…try to get some sleep anywho…

  Feeling: Pooped Weather: 

Welp, got the ultrasound today…

 

The first one is of Simeon’s face.  Can you see it?  Isn’t it adorable?  Lookit those chubby cheeks!!!  The second one is of his foot.  LOL  I love baby feet.  We could not get a profile of him cuz he turned over and dug his face into my backbone and refused to budge!  We kept pushing on him and all.  It was quite funny actually.  He put his little butt in the air and pretty much that was the only face we got!  *snort*  It was really cute.  Get this…my babies have all been pretty much bald…well, this one is getting hair and the ultrasound tech was going on and on about “Look at that!  It looks like curly hair!  Would you look at that!”  SO!!!!!  Mayhap I will get my curly hair on ONE of my kids anywho!  Watch though…he will loose it all before birth, my luck.  *hurumpft*

Right now he weighs 4lbs 2 oz and his feet are 3 inches long!!!  Mr. Bigfoot!  And he still has his boy stuff.  Nothing has fallen off so still male gender.  *giggle*

Ok, off to bed.  DID get some sleep last night.  My hubby prayed for me and we read the Scripture where it talks of Him giving His beloved sleep.  I got some sleep last night resting in that Promise and I plan to do the same tonight.  So tootles…just wanted to drop in since I just posted…
