I really am going to try to keep this brief, but I might spill a lot of useless words in this post. The chances of it being a Christmassy post are slim to none.
Let me try to put things in order first. I'll use bullet points
-Kev is still away (he will be home this afternoon)
-I was away, taking advantage of my parents help
-I came home Wednesday so I could make it to my midwife appointment yesterday morning
-Kev leaves again on Monday
-I had real life contractions Wednesday night and yesterday, midwife says that they are from over doing it
-Today I feel completely normal

Okay, so the midwife told me I need to only do the necessary things for the next week so that I can at least make it to 37 weeks. The week before she told me that I needed to tell my husband that he is part of my nest and him being here makes it feel secure and safe so he really needed to be at home. Both statements make me laugh b/c I have very little control over either of them. I have a 2 year old, "taking it easy" when I'm by myself is a novelty that happens only when she is sleeping. I did try to tell my husband that he needed to turn the project over to someone else and be here "just in case" but he has no control over that. So, the conversation between he and I started out calmly enough, but then he told me to take it easy....Let me just pause here and say that I know I had a choice here, I could have let this statement go and just laugh it off, but instead, in a rather heated tone I think I said something like he had 0% sensitivity to what I am going through right now and proceeded in a teary rampage for about 30 minutes...By the end of our chat, I had calmed down (I guess), and went to the bathroom to find that after I flushed the commode it overflowed. Then I walked into the room where Gus and I had been sitting for the last hour to find that he had pottied all over the floor.
I called Kev back to explain in a sarcastic tone that those were perfect examples of why I can't take it easy. Then I laughed and said that God has a sense of humor and because of my tirade I probably will be pregnant until January 10th...
Happy 3rd, I have no Christmas decorations up. I hope this changes soon, it might me feel more merry.
Here's to a contraction free day and "taking it easy."

I am glad you a feeling better now.
BTW Libs looks just like Kev in the 1st pic.
Maybe Kevin should have sent you up for a nap like Libby was in the previous post!
I really wish I lived near enough to be able to help you but try to get as much rest as you can.
I'm pleased to see Libby is on the good list and I'm sure you will make it back on again too.
I love these Decembers when you post every day! Maybe I'll do the same thing to keep you cyber company! Lord knows the boys' blog needs updated in a bad way! Your gingerbread post makes me crave peppermint mochas! I hope you're still planning on bringing Libby by for a day next week! She can even nap here if you'd like! Miss you and feel better!
