Ok, here is the pic of my diaper bag…
A gal named Misti made it for me. Check her out! She is very reasonable and her bags are great! I just love it! It was exactly what I was wanting!
As for the birth story…I had an ob appt on Thursday…and a TON of errands to run…I am talking a TON people. I had all the kidlins with me…and was hoping my appointment would be fast…well, I was dilated to a 4 and contracting, as usual of course and the ob wanted me to go get checked and watched at the hospital…so there we were and while on the monitor Simeon’s heart rate kept falling quite a bit during contractions and since I was ‘term’ at 37 weeks, they decided to go ahead and do the c-section. I had no sitter or nothing! LOL So the kids were in the room waiting, Allan high tailed it to the hospital…and woolah…here was Simeon! LOL It all still seems so unreal. There was some concern over the right heart ventricle as it seemed enlarged in the ultrasound a week ago but after the birth nothing seems amis, ptl! So keep praying. He is just so perfect. Never cries! (knock on wood)
I am pooped but loving life.
Gotta cut this short but wanted to update you all! Thanks for all the wunnerful comments and tags and emails! I love it!

Simeon Allan was born on Thursday, May 17th at 2:22pm. He was 6lbs 15oz and 20 inches long. He does have hair! More than any of my others did! Not curly like we thought but who cares! At least he has something there! LOL He is beautiful. I am fine. More details later. I just got home and wanted to let you all know. Course being the proud mama I am I just HAD to boast.
Thanks for all your prayers.
OH! I got my diaper bag too and it is GEORGEOUS! I will post pics of it later!
Mwwaaa!

Ok, the famous G~ has ‘tagged’ me and DARED me no less to do this “7″ thingamauhwhoppie…Â
Short n sweet version…since SHE is the yacker…NOT I! *innocent smile*
-
1) I have an acute ’sniffer’. I smell things no one else evidently can! I hate stink of any kind. LOL Like right now, my cat, FlipFlop just used the litter box and though I refuse to have a littler box in my home there is a trap door to the garage and I tell ya, I can smell that lousy stuff and no one else can!Â
Â
-
2) I am obsessive compulsive. Tight sheets, do not touch public handrails OR toilet seats for that matter. I refuse to touch a public rest room door handle with my bare hands. And do NOT get me started on buffets!!!!Â
Â
-
3) I had gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago June 9th and lost over 200lbs and feel wunnerful! I have had another baby since then and due in 2 weeks, (that is TWO WEEKS Ya’ll) with baby number four!
Â
-
4) I am a minister’s wife. I love the Lord and working for Him. We are currently helping a church in Bloomington, IN. Though I do not think *I* am helping much my hubby is great! He is truly on fire for God, that is for sure and for certain!
Â
-
5) (as G~ says, this is getting hard) Um I am reading a new author that I just ‘found’ a couple of months ago…her name is Tracey Bateman. Boy you guys! She can write. I was reading her Penbrook Diaries and they were good but now I am onto her Claire books and Guys! You have GOT to go read them. They are great! She reminds me almost of Jan Karon with the way her books do dialog and talk in the first person…I love it!
Â
-
6) I have an infected toe…right foot, and the “stay home piggie”…ouch. Never fails either when I have an infected toe…Simmone has a hidden radar that says, ‘ok, moms toe is infected go step on it repeatedly!’
Â
-
7) FINALLY…I hate these things cuz I never know what to say! LOLOL Ok, another tidbit…I am having a ton of contractions…but you know me and Murphy’s Law…I will indeedie go to my due date…(BUMMER Wummer!)
Finally finished, happy G~? The things we do for our friends, I tell ya…*sarcastic sigh* LOL
I go to the ob again this Thursday…will post again then….tootles.

Yeah! *jumping up and down for joy* I got some SERIOUS sleep last night! That ambien is wunnerful. Matter of fact, it was SO wonderful that I dreamed I wrote an old friend of mine and not being able to type…was mispelling all my words and not able to see straight and feeling pretty good…just not able to talk or type! LOL Imagine my suprise when I checked my ’sent’ folder this morning and realized it was NOT a dream!!!!!!! Oh my word, talk about embarrassing! It was actually pretty funny too though! I had to email them and let them know I DID know how to spell and No, I was not drunk. *snort*Â
Anywho, I only have 5 of these bad boys…4 now since I took one last night and I am hording these things like my life depends on it! LOLOL Hpefully this will give me a jump start and I can sleep tonight…and another plus…I was not restless or jerky! Yeah!
As for the ultrasound today…Simeon weighs 6lbs 2 oz and his HUGE feet are now 3.5 inches. Isn’t that a total hoot? I think it is hilarious myself! I would post pics but I will have mercy on Daveman and not even try it. The pics are not that good…he was NOT cooperating to say the least. It was actually quite funny. All we could see was a butt crack and the back of his head, some fingers and his foot and elbows. LOL We tried to get him to move but the booger is stubborn. He definitely does not get that from me. *heh* One thing the tech kept going on again about was the hair…seems he has a lot for a 36 weeker…We will see once this bean pops out, huh? I am hoping though!
Ok, gotta get. I feel so refreshed from finally getting some sleep I am going to run to the Paper Factory and see what I can find for our Ladies tea…speaking of which…check this out…cool huh? I am so glad to be a woman! I love girlie girlie stuff!

Just got home fromt he OB again…I am dilated to a 3 now and also my blood pressure was up somewhat and I had a trace of protein in my urine…lost a little weight…and still not sleeping. I have been up all night last night. Only had a few hours sleep the night before and next to nill before that…I am plumb pooped. I talked Dr. Szentes into 5 Ambien…like pulling eyeteeth! LOL Let’s hope and pray that these work however and let me sleep and NOT jerk (rls) like I think the phenregan and tylenol pm make me do. I had some more blood work done to check my iron, platelets, protein and other stuff. I go tomorrow to have another ultrasound…will probably post more pics then if I get a chance…
In other news, I am going to TRY and lie down here in a sec…was really wanting to go to church but after being awake for over 38 hours I am drooping to say the least. There is going to be a Mother/Daughter Tea 
 at the Bloomington church and I offered to help host that and get some things ready on the 21st. I am actually quite excited about it but now sortof nervous with this stuff going on. LOL Though I think I will go to my due date and sceduled c-section on the 3oth, Who knows with me! My Murphys Law tattoo on my forehead seems to kick in when I make other plans!Â
Ok, I am gonna get. I need to lie down before I drop and then get in gear and make up a neat/cute/purty sign up sheet for the tea for my hubby to take to church tonight and post on the bulletin board…
More tomorrow hopefully…

Simmone comes into the puter room where I am looking for something online and is cracking up and he is screaming bloody murder…poor kid! LOL I had to make him keep it all on though until I got a pic…she dressed him up to look like me…with a bosum, AND a belly! Isn’t that hilarious?
Anywho, HAD to share…
