TVT....Life has been CRAZY!!

What a better way to update you all on all out happenings around here than with a good old TVT! So, here goes.....

  • My babies are 37 weeks 1 day old today. I carried them for exactly 37 weeks 1 day. They have officially lived in the real world longer than they lived in me. It makes me happy and sad at the same time. My little itty bitty babies are now big old movers and shakers. What happened?!?!?!
  • My surgery went ok. I had some complications and lots of bleeding. It was pretty uncomfortable and painful for about a week. Just finally stopped spotting after very large doses of progesterone. It is not something I want to go through again.
  • I had to help out a loved one over the past week. They were addicted to opiate pain medication and had to go into detox. They are doing great, but it is a long road ahead of them. Prayers needed. I can't help but think that Rob is helping guide them.
  • I had sex!!!
  • I also took a bath for the first time in 14 days. I LOVE baths and they are MY time. It was awesome, with lots of bubbles!.....ok. I took two. There, I confessed.
  • Both kiddos are back in their helmets. They are adjusting great to the second one. I got so used to their little heads, and I am starting to miss them again. But, it is for the best.
  • Tooth count: AJ - 1 big one. Caroline - 2 little ones. She got her second one last night.
  • Caroline is crawling, standing, trying to walk, pulls up on everything. My active little girl. AJ is army crawling, rolling everywhere and starting to pull up. He is just a bit chunkier and doesn't care much for the whole moving everywhere thing.
  • I have lost 9 lbs since starting weight watchers. Woo Hoo!!! FINALLY back to pre-pregnancy weight. Now to get this infertility weight off.
  • So many people have gotten preggo since I have been on here. Yeah!!!!!! God is good and working in all our lives.
  • I wrote my brother's best friend in Africa yesterday to tell him about Rob's death. It was only a few weeks ago that I finally found his email address among his things. Rob was fortunate enough to travel to Africa to do mission work a couple years ago when he was sober, and he made great friends. Still, it was so sad to have to tell Isa about Rob. Brought back every emotion I have tried to cover up. Missing him still.
Have a great day!!!

Sorry to hear your surgery was a bit hard to recover from, but I hope it's behind you now. Your babes are getting so big! Isn't it hard to watch them grow up so fast, yet exciting at the same time? Congrats on the weight loss!
