The Bergman Bunch!

So I counted today because I was bored. 108 days left until my due date, if I go 2 weeks early like I did with my other two children, that would make it 94 days, which to me, sounds better. I am getting big and think, " I am only going to get soooo much bigger, especially with 108 days left to go!!!" It doesn't help that Burgers sound really good to me now, and I am usually no where near a burger fan! And Chocolate! Ok, anything sweet really that is totally bad for you. My child should come in the shade of a Skittles color. That's what I think. I have a lot on my mind lately, and appreciate this blog to vent a little bit here and a little bit there. So it's nice when I take mini breaks at work, when I'm actually in the office, to get it out quick! So if I tend to post a lot of stuff in one day, I really need to talk!!

Well, slowly but surely, we in the Bergman residence are starting to feel much better! The pharmacy had initially given me the wrong amount of antibiotic pills (way too few), so they called me a few days later to let me know about the mishap, and now I am on the right amount and have slowly been feeling tons better! Also, lately I have seemed to be reconnecting with various friends from different stages in life, and am actually getting the opportunity to hang out or chat with them. It feels really good. I think I tend to hibernate at home during the winter, but adding the fact that I've been sick with colds and the flu this pregnancy, it really added to the isolation! So it feels good to be talking and getting out with people I care about.

For those who do not know, the whole family has been under the weather for the last two weeks. It started out with me, having my 3rd cold of this pregnancy, which turned in to more of a sinus infection/flu thingy. Then Halloran got pnuemonia and was in the hospital for a couple of days last week, and now Tom has my cold-which I still have- and Brady had a slight fever two days this week. And I have only 3 hours of sick time left at work. Amongst this chaos, I've learned a couple of things: I love my husband very much, more than I ever thought I could and could not raise my children without his presence (and I need to remember that during the times he annoys me), patience is a virtue-a concept I am still learning but getting better at, the baby in my uterus can really put up with a lot (hard coughing, less oxygen, and antibiotics) and I have learned that despite how my pelvic area may feel, you can't cough yourself in to labor. Laugh when my sons says in public, "Mommy, you

Halle's first snow experience! Brady loves the snow! My two snow bunnies hanging out for some pics after our walk!

So I was watching Oprah yesterday with Halloran (hehehe), and it was all about how to change and heal your life. I've always thought I was a pretty upbeat gal, but in reality, I can be very negative when I let the load of my worries get the best of me. I kept watching the show and felt myself so intrigued about what the panel of women were talking about. It seems so simple. If I think positively, positive things will come my way. It talked about letting go, the universe, laws of attraction and spirituality. My husband and I got to talking about 0ur life last night and we concluded that it's pretty perfect, except for our usual struggle, our budget. But other than that, we have gorgeous little angels whom we love dearly, eachother, a home, a dog, vehicles, food, eachother, a family, friends, eachother, and so much more! I think the next step is to continually think positively about the obstacles that come our way. In one of the stories on the show, a woman's husband came ho
