Wyatts arrival is tomorrow!

Well I have blogging to catch up on. Im counting down hours till Wyatt comes, 17 more hours. Im ready for him to be here and meet him, as well as loose all the pains and discomforts that come with being larger and carrying for 9 months. In a few Doc, Daddy, and I are going to Pita Jungle to have Mommies last meal before surgery. We are all very excited. Today Doc got his stitches out and the flu shot, he did so well and loves going to the doctor now. His Doctor said, "I didnt even notice you where pregnant" then looked shocked when I said he's due tomorrow and she tried saying I probably have back labor. Ive had alot of people say stuff like you must be 6 months, or do you have 2 months to go, and now...I didnt even notice you where pregnant. Everyone says they are compliments but Im starting to wonder if we scheduled the due date properly. Ive gone over it several times and its right on. Im just praying for a healthy baby boy at this point. Lately Ive been giving God much glory and praise and remembering had I not cried out to him in times of need, I would of never had the life I have now. I thank him for answering my prayers and blessing my family.

Yet another busy day without the Chaos

Woke up early to get Doc ready to go to San Diego to be the ring bear in my brothers wedding which was conveniently planned out of state and 5 days before our C-section so I couldn't go, but Doc and his little hurt chin will be there for us. He gets to go to Sea World Tomorrow, lucky little guy. After I sent him off with the grandparents I went to my very first MOPS group (Mothers of Preschoolers) Parking lot was full of mini vans and I was surprised to see such a large turn out of beautiful, excited ladies. I must say Im really excited to connect with other women and my table seems to have very lovely, nice mothers to get to know. It was comforting that several of them have had repeat c-sections and 3 year olds as well. Its nice to relate to someone and not feel like the odd one. Later this afternoon Im going to meet up with Candice again to pick up our Pottery we painted. Im excited to see how it turns out! I painted a water bowl for our cat Black with a scary fish inside it. Doc is really into scary things right now so I thought he would get a kick out of the scary fish Black will have to look at everyday.

Gods way of saying I can manage

Today our neighborhood was on lock down and my house sounded like a battle field with helicopters, police sirens, and the news channel full blast pretty much all mid-day on the hunt for an fugitive and because a business close by had a armed man holding hostages. To much excitement for me. On top of it all I felt like I had the flu and didn't know if I should be in bed or the toilet, both won of course, and David wasn't going to be coming home from work. I decided to call my mom at 7pm to tell her keep an ear out for the phone just in case I went into labor. But as I was getting the house picked up thinking I should shower and be ready in case I go into labor all my plans and anxiousness turns to concern for Doc. Poor guy slipped in the tub and hit the basket that holds his toys, busting his chin and even forced a tooth through his lip. But my little guy quickly became interested in stopping the blood and was excited when I explained to him we'd be going to the hospital for stitches. We had been practicing playing Doctor that day and the day before so he was ready. He was so good at the hospital and everyone loved his happy spirit. Come stitches time he remained so calm and even fell asleep after the 2 of 5 stitch. David was able to make it just to see the stitches, I about fainted, probably because I was holding my breath for the trooper. The kid next to us getting an IV was screaming bloody murder but that didnt phase Doc at all. Im proud of him for being such a big kid. We finally checked out at 11:56 and went home to end such a long day. Thank you Lord for protecting us, keeping Doc comforted, and helping me remember your here to help me through times I wish I could ovoid but life does happen.

No more OB Visits

Today was my last OB appointment with Dr. Jen Iacovelli whom is the coolest doctor ever. I cant wait for our date January 13 at 11:00am to Deliver Wyatt via Repeat cesarean. So far my last two appointments have shown I have just gained loads and loads of weight, start weight 113 weight today 167, Fun! Also, my cervix refuses to change even the slightest so Im happy to be doing a c-sections rather than long labor with a statistic rate of 77% of women that have non-progressive labor receive cesarean. But Im fully prepared for his arrival and much more ready for the operation so this delivery (cross my fingers, pray to God) will be a breeze!

January 1, 2011

What better way to start the year then to have your parents stop by as a surprise visit and bond with your son at a football game? Aunt Tracy was so kind to give David and Doc tickets to the Fiesta Bowl to watch the Sooners VS Huskies and enjoy a pre-game party. Doc was the highlight of the game and was ever so excited to get free bags of Chips, soda, jump in the bouncers, and shout with fellow sports enthusiast. He stayed up past 11:00pm to make sure I heard all the highlights of his day. I couldn't more happy for them.

New Year New Mom

For the year 2011 I will be a mother of two, a full time student, and Im even part of a Mothers of Preschoolers group so why wouldn't I just add to all of that and start blogging? I really enjoy writing and creating new tasks for myself and I think creating a new hobby is always healthy. Besides I would rather talk to myself then a network of people that have little or no interest in my family. So here we go, new year, new family, awesome way to start The Chronicles of the Curtiss Family.
