to the boiling point ...

words or sayings that drive me nuts : ( in no specific order)

knicknacks
shananigans
touch base
from the get go
calin ( french )
ayoyeeeee ( french )
guestimate
KODAK ( french ) meaning a camera but it's the brand not the camera !

anyway these are words I hear now and then and gringe ...

I do hope Livia and Eva never use them.

something I must confess...

I've had all the time in the world to get this blog up and going and haven't really ... I think I am studying other people's blog so i can figure out what i should write about ... i used to have a livejournal and i wrote o much in their but the drama of a 20 something year old has come and gone and I'm now 30 and no longer have drama to talk about ... it's sad but at the same time it"s great .. I sorta was getting afraid it would never go away !!

I stumbled upon something today ... a site that prints all your blog entries into a book you just type in which blog you want to turn into a book and they do it for a decent price .. i think it's a brilliant idea i wish livejournal would be part of the list of blogs that can be printed. This blog is pretty boring .. but i now have decided i'm gonna do this for my daughters as I would want a book of my mothers' life and stuff we did when we were growing up ( I have pictures but blogging is so much more detailed !) so I am really gonna commit to this ... I know I must have lost all my followers but this is not aobu tthat anymor e..

the new addition to the family !

Ok so lou lou suggested that i should post pictures and announce my new addition ! Duh I know I should and it's not the time that I lack of it's more that im being lazy .. anyway so here goes ...

Eva Sofia, born June 2nd at 11:39am weighing 7lbs, 2 ounces, 19.7 inches. via planned c-section. everything went 100% better then the last time. And I am so greatful that I decided to go with the planned c-section and not try a VBAC ... geez I know I woul dhave had the same situation had I tried the VBAC so anyway everything went super good .. I was walking the next day and trying to show them that I was all good to go home but they still kept me for the full 4 days ugh ! how exhausting ... I coul dnot wait to get to sleep in my own bed ... it was hell at the hospital ... you learn to appreciate your bed once you sleep 3 nights at the hospital on the plastic mattress ... heh ..

Eva is doing great gaining weight and breastfeeding like a little trooper .. every thing is to perfect she sleeps long hours at night only waking once around 1am ish to eat and then 6 -6:30 am ... and the rest of the day she sleeps and only cries to eat ...

Im loving being a mom for the 2nd time around .. you learn to appreciate those moments where you have a newborn that doesn't move and get into everything and your running around all the time trying to keep them out of all the dangerous places ... anyway I don't know how they did it in the old days with 10 children coz just the 2 that I have I find it hard to manage while im feeding one and need to entertain the other ... the man has been at home but he's heading back early as he has realised he can't really take 11 weeks of Livia saying PARK PARK PARK everyday and crying and having a fit till he takes her .. so he's taking his 5 weeks of paternity leave and then back to work ... I can't really blame him but now that means I don't go back to work until Eva is almost 1 ... that scares me abit coz im totally a career woman ... I love my daughters .. but I remember last time I was anxious to get back to work ... I start feeling bored after abit ... I need that career woman side. Is that wrong ?

Here are pictures of my cutie pie !

scary spooky empty room ...

My little Livia has been sleeping in a big girl bed for a little over a month now and was doing great but this week I was sick and coughing so much that I guess i was waking her up. She would get out of bed and knock on the inside of her door super loudly ! I would open the door and bring her back into bed at it was 12am or 4 am or whatever am ... anyway 2 nights ago she woke at 12am and i took her back to bed but she wouldn't take it she wanted DORA I took her back to bed and said no it's sleep time it's still very dark out. Anyway on the fourth time of her knocking on the door I became very awake and just decided I would try and lay next to her in her bed ... well that worked except I so didn't want to start that habit but figured in a few days all our lives will change and we will no longer be 3 so I better take advantage of it and just lay with her till she falls back asleep ... she started whispering ¨chtaime maman¨ which means I love you mommy and ugh it melts my heart when I hear her say it as she puts so much love into her voice and grabs my arm to caress it ! Anyway after a while she falls asleep but im left wide awake and kind getting creaped out ... her room seems so big and empty and you can hear the noises from the furnace and just not a cozy feeling ... so I decided to do something about it ... we hadn't had time to properly fix up her room but figured if we atleast got the bed set up that would be good but after sleeping in the creepy huge room I needed to fix it up for her to be warm and inviting .. so yesterday my wonderful parents came to help me and boy did we spice up the room, my dad built the dresser we had ordered and put up frames and a mirror and I added the little touches like photos in the frames and her little lamp and baskets with all her teddys and another with books set up next to her laz boyish princess chair and seriously that made a huge difference ! now I feel better that my little girl is not in this scary empty room ! I bet you she wasn't even affrais but gosh I was haha :P

woah la batman ...

so things have turned for the freaking out ! the hospital called and they changed my date to the 2nd ... which means i lose 3 days of prep and I've taken my sweet ass time to get to all the stuff i wanted to get done as i have a major head/chest thing going on that is knocking me out :(

i didn't know they could bring it forward i thought they could push it later but not forward ... the man has a mid term at university to do on the 4th and the 5th was going to be perfect ... good thing i decided to take an extra week off work i was gonna stop working June 1st !! geez ... Don't get me wrong im super excited just wish i would have done more earlier !

mark your calendars !

Friday June 5th 2009, is the day our lives will change once again for what I like to believe is the better :) The birth of our 2nd baby girl. To think only 4 years ago I was just meeting my guy and getting to know him and now 4 years later I have a fiance, a beautiful toddler girl and another baby girl on the way .. a beautiful house and a great job ... im set .. life could not be better ... well unless I could just get rid of a few bills but other then that I am very blessed !

Eva we can't wait to meet you baby girl :)

homestretch

So people im on my homestretch I only have about 3 weeks left ! nuts how this pregnancy went by so fast .. last time it was dragging. i feel abit overwhelmed by all I need to do before the baby gets here but then people remind me if that stuff isn't done WHO CARES ... but then i think I care coz I stress over little things like dishes in the sink even though it seems like their is always dishes in the sink either clean or dirty ... Livia's room is half done and babies room to ... but half is not good enough i want done ! you know ?

So my little princess turned 2 a few weeks back .. and now is in her big girl bed and she is doing great ! She was so ready, she is sleeping like a champ !

I haven't been updating coz i've been busy doing websites, working and sleeping .. im so exhausted it's crazy ... i don't know how I will make it till May 29th ( my last day of work )

Tommorow I find out my c-section date !!
