I need more sleep.

One Month

So today Tristan turns 4 weeks old.  How time flies…and yet sometimes I feel like he has always been part of my life.  Things have been hectic since Chris and I both have classes and he has got work.  Tristan is doing great though.  He is always hungry though…and since I am gone so much [...]

Things since becoming a mom

I must say first of all…I do love being a mom.  It’s my favorite job so far in life…and likely always will be.  That being said…things have also changed here at home.  Tristan is fussy about every other night….so Chris and I don’t get much sleep those nights. Tristan also want to nurse almost constantly [...]

Tristan Randall born 1/9/2010!

Yesterday I gave birth to my first child at 1:45pm.  Tristan Randall came into this world all naturally at 6 lbs 8 oz and 20 inches long.
Those are the stats, now if you want to know the nitty gritty…
I went into labor around 5am (at least that’s when I woke up), and waited around until [...]

I hate mother nature

If I met mother nature herself, in a dark alley…I would stab her in the eye with a fork…and that’s just to start with.
She is torturing me.
Tomorrow is my due date… and I have less then a week before school starts back.  I have no choice but to go back because of money reasons. It’s [...]

Am I done yet?

I am really due any day now (technically due date is Jan. 8th, but it can happen anytime now)… and just praying right now for sooner rather then later.  I had a good bit of false labor on Christmas eve and Christmas day… but no baby.  Contractions are certainly interesting sensations… that’s for sure.  Although [...]

The semester is over!

Yup, that’s right! The semester is over now!  Yay!  Both Chris and I are so relieved it’s done and over with.  I finished yesterday, and Chris finished on Tuesday.  I think we both likely did well in our classes, but we’ll find out when our grades are released.  I think now Chris and I are [...]

Piano class is useless

I should update, specifically about my piano class.  I meant to sooner, but sadly didn’t get around to it.
I have had to take piano III this semester and I think it is useless.  They have gotten rid of the exit level piano IV, and have instead pushed the proficency into the piano III semester.  I [...]

My boring life continued

We found out at our last midwife appointment that the baby does look like it will be a boy.  Of course, ultrasound isn’t 100%, so we are prepared just in case…but I think it’s a boy too.  Yesterday my parents and best friend came over to help out with the nursery (dad was driving my [...]

Aww so much for that

Yesterday I had my midwife appointment, but unfortunately she was running a bit late and we didn’t have time for an ultrasound.  Sad day.  Well maybe Oct. 5th we’ll get another shot since it will be a long appointment.  Hopefully baby will co-operate with us.  Seems like time is starting to fly by now…which feels [...]

Excited for tomorrow

Tomorrow I have my next midwife appointment!  We are having another ultrasound done to try and see gender again as well as make sure the baby’s growth is on target (since last time it moved too much to make sure).  I will likely post after my appointment at some point (Although I don’t promise another [...]
