Yep, my mom came yesterday. She is doing a lot better, still has some issues with her incision and gets tired easily, but hell, she's alive and able to get around so we're all happy about that. It's hard on the kids, though, as they want to yank and crawl on her all the time and they just don't remember not too. It's hard on her to tell them no, but I am trying to stay on top of it. So we all know what I am thankful for this year.......Boy, things could have been so much worse.
I was so sad to see that Rutgers lost to Cincinnati this weekend.....Cincinnati?? Well, whatever, at least it wasn't Temple. I was really hoping they would go unbeaten this year, even though it wouldn't be good for West Virginia. We have gone unbeaten before, Rutgers hasn't....I hope they can pull it out next year. But.....WVU still has a shot at the Big East championship and a BCS bid so that makes me happy.....just two more games, just two more games......
I have my follow up nuchal scan tomorrow morning. Well, it will probably end up being tomorrow afternoon as long as I waited the last time, but anyway, it's tomorrow. It's been in the back of my mind for the past four weeks, although surprising for me, I haven't worried too much about it. I got my info off google and let it lie. Now I am starting to freak out just a bit. I have a solid plan in my mind of what I would do in the worst case scenario BUT I don't really know what I would do given the worst case scenario. It all looks good on paper ya know? I just kind of feel like I am pushing the envelope. I have two healthy (and extremely good looking) kids, why in the world would I risk having a kid at 38 when I know all that could go wrong? It's so ironic that pregnant ladies can't drink, a beer would calm my nerves well right about now.
My husband gave my baby a mullet this weekend. He cut my kid's hair without even mentioning it to me. I am still a little peeved about it. He cut his bangs so blooming short but didn't touch the back at all because he didn't have time. What? I think cutting your kid's hair is something you need to have some time for. Poor kid. I actually feel kind of sorry for him like maybe all the other one year olds are pointing and laughing at him. See, a mullett......
Yeah, we put the tree up this weekend. We don't usually do it this early, but I wanted to try to get some beautiful photos of my two boys in front of the tree for Christmas cards and get that finished, but so far nothing. All I have now is a big ass mess with all the boxes that need put away (still waiting on husband to do that) and little fingers that can't resist all the pretties on the tree. Too. Much. Trouble. We also have a Hallmark Polar Express bell that rings and says something about the spirit of Christmas lies within your heart, yada, yada, that goes off continually, like in the middle of the night that is about to unnerve me. I have a feeling that bell is going to be hanging outside before it's all said and done.
My husband's best friend finally decided to take the plunge and propose to his girlfriend this weekend. I am thinking maybe he heard us talking about how he would be alone forever with only his cats because he did an about face and is completely jumping on the marriage bandwagon which we thought would never happen. Now, I love a good wedding......free food, open bar, dance all night. Sweet. When I hear this news I am giddy with the anticipation of it all FOR ME....what fun I can have! Then he slaps on us that they are trying to find a date in February......FEBRUARY! Who plans a wedding in three months? More importantly.....who has a wedding when their pregnant friend can't partake in the alcoholic fun? I am so mean, but I am so hoping they can't find a place that can do it that soon and have to do it, say, in June when I have expelled number three from my body and can enjoy it.

Hope that scan goes well, I'll say a prayer for you!
I'll be praying for you too Andria! Let us know how it goes....
As for the mullet, it really doesn't look that bad in the picture. I know how I feel about my kids' hair though, so I would probably be pissed as well.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that the wedding won't happen until June, that way you can PAR-TAY!! :)
The mullet doesn't look so bad. He's such a cutie anyway. I'll say a prayer for you about the scan. Try not to worry too much. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you about the wedding too. I know I had 2 weddings when I was pg, and there is nothing sadder than not being able to take part in the open bar. I hated being the D.D.
I can't believe they haven't had a break! My husband's school had a week in October. He had to go yesterday and today, but they're out tomorrow.
I was sad about Rutgers too. And Husband certainly wasn't pleased about the Pitt/WVU game, although I was thinking about you, knew you would be. ;)
Good luck at the Doc. I will be keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you.
*snort.* Your kid has a mullet. ;)
I was wondering if you had heard any news in regard to that nuchal thing.
I will be thinking of you tomorrow.
In regard to the wedding,you could tell your friend that flowers are twice as expensive in February than any other month because of Valentine's Day. I doubt it will make a difference but it's worth a try.
I had to go to a wedding 7 months pregnant once and between not being able to drink, heartburn and being called fat by my SIL's BIL, it was not that fun.
Hope tomorrow goes well.
I needed to take a break, but i have checked in on you a few times...I took some more catching up time on your blog, your boys are adorable..read about your haircut, the little boys, sounds like you have made a lot of changes...I will be thinking of you and praying that things go well with your scan...I think of you often and your pregnancy...sending lots of hugs...
Happy Thanksgiving Andria!!!
Good luck at the doc today; hope you received some good news and are able to put your worries behind you now.
The haircut doesn't look bad at all!!
