Weekend Recap

Friday: Watch the boys until 4pm, hang out with the Mom til' 5pm. Have sister and unexpected friend (Lisa), stop over, then decide to eat at Pizza Hut with the kids! Next, I drive up to my mom's house in Stanchfield, and we take the kids to Snow White and the Seven Dwarves at the Braham High School! HILARIOUS! The kids loved it, but we only made it to intermission because it was waaaaaaaaaaaaay past Shelby's bedtime!

Saturday: Hang out at home for the first part of the day, and attempt to get some things done around the house! Then my mom watched the kids so my sister and I could go baby shopping - for my sister:) - and then we ate at Victory 44, and I got home at about 10pm!

Sunday: Went up to St. Croix State Park with the kids. Made a pit stop in Rock Creek due to a puking her guts out incident by Halloran! We now know that she gets car sick on long rides....yay for us! St. Croix was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had a great day of bike riding, playing IN the river :), a little nature walk, campfire, food and then went to a nature talk about Beavers, Otters and muskrats! Brady stayed overnight with my Dad and Kathi, and we took the girls home (both zonked out 30 seconds after we left...no joke)!

Monday: Spent the day gardening! We have two small gardens now, one with veggies and one with herbs! Here's hoping that the seeds grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha, ha, ha! Planted some other flowers, made a trip to Menards and then had some neighbors, family, and friends over for a fabulous barbecue!!!!! Another Perfect Day!

Today: Watching the boys today, tomorrow and Thursday, then I'm all done with that! So, here's hoping for another great day!

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 coffee

Still here...Day Two.

Well, I still miss my kids horribly. Especially this morning when I heard that Shelby was up alot during the night. She has not been up in the middle of the night in 3 weeks, and it made me feel guilty for leaving her. I felt and feel, like I should be home with them. I know the woman who is watching them, that if she hears even the slightest little peep out of the kids would go rushing in to their room. I really don't want Shelby to get used to someone picking her up in the middle of the night for little rustles and sighs. But maybe I am just anxious, and maybe it is not really that big of a deal. Maybe I should just enjoy my time with my thoughts, my books and my husband. But honestly, I am anxious because I feel like the can't live with out me (don't laugh, besides I know it's over dramatic:)), I haven't even attempted to pick up one of my books, and my husband is driving me nuts because it does not bother him one bit that we are 3 hours away from our little bund

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
