Just the facts
I am super drugged and will tell my tale another day, but for now you are getting just the facts.
It's a BOY!!!
The Boy* was born on 2/10/10 weighing in at (get this!) 7lbs 8.9ozs and 19 3/4 inches long. (He totally tricked us!!! Even the Dr was surprised as to how little he was.) He looks just like his big sister except he has BLONDE hair! We are all head over heels in love... although I think The Girl's opinion may changed once we bring him home and into her world.
I will find out today if I go home today or tomorrow. Tomorrow would be just fine with me, now that I have discovered the wonders of AMBIEN!! (do you hear the choir of angels singing???) I got SLEEP last night!!!! Consecutive hours of SLEEP! (there go the angels again!) :) We have at least 6 GORGEOUS inches of SNOW here and I have a nice big window from which I can view it. I sorta wish I could be at home with The Girl playing in it though. :)
Ok, now for the pictures:
There ya have him folks; we are now a family of four!
*If you are reading this post for the first time... you missed his name announcement; I've changed it to how he will be referred to on the internet b/c I'm super paranoid. :)

If you've been living under a rock...
and didn't know this already; today is baby eviction day!
I woke up yesterday with congestion in my head. Oh joy! All the nose blowing should feel REALLY good after I have major abdominal surgery.
I'll post THE update when I can! :)

In an effort
to not sound like a whiny baby... I shall refrain from blogging until I feel like I have something positive to say!

It's official
I am a hermit.
I go to church on Sunday and then usually to one appt during the week and that is it! I send C to the store for just about everything that I need. I'm just not in the mood to drag myself and The Girl anywhere. I'm totally bigger than I ever got when pregnant the first time, I have 2 skirts that I can wear and only one of them if it is cold out, (which it has been here and I'm seriously NOT complaining about the weather cuz I LOVE it! We are actually having a winter, but sadly it is ending soon... already today we are in the upper 40's.) :( ANYWAY, it is just so much easier for The Girl and I to chill out at the house (ha! no pun intended) and watch movies and color and nap and tool around on the computer than to put any effort into getting actual clothes on that fit and get out into the general public. We have roughly 6 more weeks til the new guy makes an appearance but quite honestly I don't think it is going to be that long. Next week we have another sono so maybe we'll get a better idea of how things are moving along. I checked some old blog posts this morning and about 5 weeks before my due date with The Girl I started up the insulin b/c my blood sugar numbers weren't staying where they needed to be and then we went and had her 2 weeks early. Sooooooo if that is any indication of things than this little bambino may just be about 3 weeks away b/c my sugar levels have been slowly increasing and I'm sure that when I mention this to the dr next week we'll start insulin. Of course all this is just really me guessing b/c well, I don't have my medical degree and quite honestly NOTHING about this pregnancy is remotely similar to my previous one except that I have the most absurd sleep schedule and that I developed gestational diabetes. EVERYTHING else is different. How I feel, how I look, how the baby feels, my blood pressure, my weight, the HEARTBURN, oh THE HEARTBURN...!
(on the upside, I'm getting all my calcium in from all the Tums that I have been chewing on!) :) See, glass is half full people! :) Since the tiredness CONSUMES me, Christmas is still up at our house and I HATE THAT! Also The Girl's 'new room' still remains in a half state of 'new room' and scrap/office junk everywhere room. She did sleep in her new bed though on um Friday? or Saturday? night for about 4 hours, when she woke up YELLING Daddy! and CRYING!! and then thud, she rolled off the bed. (giggle) It's only about 4 inches off the floor so she didn't get hurt but it made me laugh. :)
That's pretty much where we are right now... just hermit crabbing it for the time being.
OH, one more thing: C starts 2 new classes; officially, the classes start today but they opened them up over the weekend... he told me this morning that depending on how busy he was at work today, he figures he can FINISH one of the classes TODAY!!! I really love my geek! :) The other class is going to take him a little more time... it is an English writing course and he swears he's not good at that stuff. (He is SO WRONG on that by the way!)
