week 41......

41 weeks
yippeee we made it
through rain, sleet, ice storms, wind storms and a car accident?
yes you heard that right.....
sadie, grandma (renamed mema) and bec got in a car accident
the good thing is it happened at the end of our street....
the bad thing is it happened
so what does this mean....it means we have a cadillac
yes you heard me....we tried to get a mini van to rent but instead we got a cadillac a nice big black shiny cadillac
so #2 will be riding home in style
plush leather seats V8 engine what more could a new born want...
well obviously he does not want to leave his current home otherwise i think a car bump would of done it
the ambulance came and were surprised that even this car accident did not get him going....
we are all okay though
sadie slept through the whole thing clutching her new ernie doll
mema did not even gasp which was good and aside from me having a few aches in pains in my back we are doing well
and yes for all of you that are wondering it was the new car....
at this rate not sure what the damage was done to our car....pretty sure the other car will be totaled
it was driving a little too fast...and drove up on top of a stone planter....i was doing 5 mph getting ready to turn onto our street thus the reason sadie slept through everything
so that is our story for the week
getting a rental caddy and waiting.....
we have had a fun time playing before all this
went to the children's museum and watched mema run run run
enjoy the day and keep checking back

alright already.....

okay so i know we are a little anxious so i can only imagine everyone else is a little anxious for the arrival of #2
mostly because you all want to know the name right?
well soon enough right?
let's hope....
once again lots of little nothings have been happening
we had two days of spring like weather hitting into the 60's which totally confused the birds and me....
we had a horrible wind storm which meant nothing other than our house is still in one piece with no tree limbs sticking out of it so i suppose that is a good thing
all the snow has melted and we are back in the 30's again with anticipated snow flurries for the next week
what does this mean besides the fact that i just regurgitated the entire weather.com site is...
we have had ample opportunity to be stuck in some bad situations which would only seem the appropriate time to go into labor...but alas i am still waddling through life......
grandma b has arrived and is ready to cook and clean....okay she is ready to play with sadie none stop which makes aaron and i so happy to see her run run run around the house while we sip tea with our feet up.....
life is good
we are planning on going to get dim sum this weekend b/c as you all know i am totally obsessed with turnip cakes....we are also hoping to go to the children's museum on saturday so once again we can watch grandma run run run!
we call this the grandma work out....otherwise known as the quick and easy diet exercise plan for all those who are feeling a little sluggish this winter come on over.....
i did go to the docs and nothing is new.....just growing a big baby
"how big is baby?"
not sure really b/c no one can every really guess the weight but if we were at a carnival and had to guess dr is thinkin/ between 9 and 10 lbs so all is good there
dr is also suggesting a c-section for next wed....so if he decides not to come out sooner will be seeing him next wed for sure!
until than enjoy the days and keep reading.....technology is great and i have found all sorts of new ways of getting things posted even from the car!
