Getting better...


Shelby had her 4 doctor appointments today at the U of MN! It started out with her ultrasound, which took about 5 minutes, and she cried. Only because she's at that stage where she does not want to just lay there on her back. Then they took us to another room for her VCUG. This one took longer, more laying, but with a catheder. Putting the catheder in was not the thing that bugged her, once again. It was just laying there!
She was so mad!
So she cried for about 15 out of the twenty minutes. To take a breath.
Then we were not supposed to have appointments until 1:45pm and 2:45pm. So I called friends who lived in the area, and they were both doing something...yeah, you know who you are!! It was fine because I went to the laser clinic and asked if they could possibly fit me in....(fingers crossed)...yep!
And, she didn't have to get a laser treatment done, even better!
Then I went to the urology clinc to see if they could fit me in...(fingers crossed again)...yep!
I got to the U of MN at 9am, had both tests done by 10 am and had our two clinic appointments done by noon! Shelby slept the whole ride home...I am so glad it went so smooth!
On the way down I was listening to Rascal Flatts, and the first song I heard was one that has now summed up the last few days for me, on what I need to do to get over the neighbor who hurt me....here it is:

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

Round two!

I got to come home for a little bit and play with Brady and Halle, give them a bath (me a shower) and then laid them down for a nap. I took some ibuprofen, I think I have an overdose of a "caffeine, lack of sleep, still wearing my contacts" headache! So now I am going to try and nap a little and then it's back to the hospital with Shelby for round two of SLUMBER PARTY AT THE HOSPITAL WITH A SICK BABY! Not worthy of all caps joy, but I'm trying to be optimistic about it all! So we had a rough night last night, she didn't sleep for a full hour from 9-1am, then she had a bit of an issue with her nebulizer treatment (meaning she didn't like it) and then her IV came out. Yadda yadda. Finally at 3 am she was ready to settle down and then she slept till 7am. On my chest. Luckily I was tired enough to get most of that sleep as well, until about 6:30ish. I just feel so bad for her! I felt bad for me a little too about 1:00 am. I wanted to just cry my eyes out from bein...

Who did we welcome home TODAY????

Shelby Capri Bergman 6 lbs. 5 oz. , 19.5 inches long May 30th, 2008 10:52 pm I just want you all to know that everything went picture perfect. She's beautiful, she's healthy and she's very content. I don't have a ton of pictures yet, my mom took pictures during delivery and I took some today when we got home, but since we don't have internet at home now, it will be slow coming! I had my membranes stripped at 9:45 am on Friday. Afterwards, Tom and I went to Walmart, Applebees's, my sister's classroom to help move some stuff (I supervised... I was a little sore), and then home. I took a nap and Tom started getting ready for supper. His 4 hour long, grilled ribs...and that is how the story begins! So we keep joking that I am going to go during his first trial run with the ribs. This starts at around 3:30 pm. Then, we run out of propane and start all over a...
