The question is????

That is the question of the day and the last 3 weeks. When is Emerson coming? Well in the past 3 weeks I have been in the hospital 3 times. Once for contractions 5 minutes apart, no she didn't arrive, I was dehydrated. How can a person drinking at least 75 oz of water a day become dehydrated. Thats a rhetorical question :-)

2nd Trip to the hospital was because my Dr. sent me for bloodwork, then they admitted me. The Dr. thought I might have preclampsia, which I didn't thankgoodness. Granted it was around lunch time and I was starving, but I couldn't have anything to eat per the nurses incase they had to take the baby via C-Section.

Then last night, our 10th anniversary, all the way to dinner I was having contractions, but I was determined to eat dinner and have desert before I went to the hospital. So we had dinner, which I didn't enjoy much because the contractions were 5 - 7 minutes a part for the whole 2 hours we were there. So we decided since we were close to the hospital to just go and walk around and if they got stronger we would go inside. Well by the time we got there they were pretty strong and I didn't want to have to drive all the way home and come back and barely make it. Well after we were there a couple of hours the contractions stopped. Ya, just stopped. So needless to say I came home. My oldest son Austin said so where's the baby, UGH, I wanted to say duh can't you see I'm still pregnant, but I didn't I just said it was a false alarm.

So when is Emerson coming? I really don't know but I'm almost positive she is going to make a grand entrance into this world. I mean she is going to be our only girl, and she has already played havoc on my body.

Tattle Tailing

Is tattle tailing natural or is it learned. My boys came back from Florida and OH My GOODNESS!!! Austin can't quit tattling. I mean I expect this from a little one but he is almost 10. YIKES! I don't think Carson can do anything right. But I have to say this time I think its a tad of there Paw's fault. He really favors Carson and from what I understand Austin can do no wrong. Well Carson isn't good at sticking up for himself if he feels intimidated and I am pretty sure his Paw is intimidating. Well I am pretty good I mean I have been there mom for 9 and 7 years and I know the little tricks up there sleeves and Austin had forgotten how well I know him. I don't ever believe the first thing that comes out of any of there mouths and I always ask what exactly happened and only one person can talk at a time. OUCH! Austin has been caught. I love them dearly and just want them to be kids.

Needless to say I am so glad they are home from Florida, but I think I need a break already :-)
