 I am a Catholic SAHM to two kids and three babies in Heaven. I like to write about Catholicism, homemaking, being a Mom, living with three mental disorders, and the like. (more?)

I just finished with our 37-week check-up and we are AWESOME. - Little One is totally head down, and the ‘bump’ at the top of my uterus is actually LO’s butt. How cute. – I’m still gaining weight (I think I’m almost +30 for this pregnancy) but that’s not cause for concern. – The [...] Exspectantes posted a post yesterday afternoon that really has me thinking. Her thoughts on making a home, especially why it’s so important to her. I suppose this isn’t shocking to anyone, but my mom is the typical ‘Type A personality’ (which is something her and I get a lot of laughs out of). I’m [...] All the pain from yesterday has subsided. Which I guess is okay, Greg can testify that I was pretty crabby by the end of the day. I think it stopped sometime overnight, because I haven’t noticed it today. That’s about 14+ hours of pain – yuck. On the upside, Little One did drop (a [...] Something that has become glaringly obvious this Lent is how I react to stress. Different kinds of stress produce in me different reactions, and not really any of them are good. When I’m tired. I’m a basket case of emotion and crying all over the place. When I’m in pain, my short temper comes [...] In the last 48 hours, I have slept for 10. I wish I could say it was due to labor but alas, it’s due to insomnia + RLS. The worst was waking up Friday morning at 5am and not falling asleep until … 2am, this morning. Thank God Greg and his mom are doing [...] I’m happy to say that today has been oodles better than yesterday. I still am not sleeping very well (which may be part of the reason why I feel so unsteady lately), but fidelity to my little prayer routine has really been beneficial in getting through the humps of hormones and whatever the Other [...] Lent officially begins today, and I’ve already had a rough day. I think it’s one part due to pregnancy hormones and one part due to the Other Side not liking what all is going on. Greg, Elise, and I all made it to Mass for our ashes (Elise thought our ashes were OH SO [...] I think a conclusion has finally been reached with what I’m going to do for Lent. Since I’m pregnant (and my OB has expressed that I do NOT need to be losing weight in this final stretch) and will be nursing; I am exempted from the Lenten fasts relating to food. Or rather, I [...] 1. Worst way ever to wake up: right after having a dream that you went into labor. It’s kind of a let down to wake up to no broken water and contractions and realize it was only a dream. 2. In some effort to keep up on comments here, I’m holding them in moderation [...] Today is the memorial of Our Lady of Lourdes. You could say that I have a devotion to St. Bernadette (my patron!) and Our Lady of Lourdes, because they are apart of my journey Home. It’s amusing – to me at least – that St. Bernadette led me to Our Lady of Lourdes, who [...] |
