Our Little Tax Man!

Here he is! We are in the process of going home, so this is all I can post for now. And I am so tired right now I don't really know what I am typing. More to come soon!

The Baby will Probably be here Soon!

I thought I should take some pictures of me Before I had the baby!

I went to the hospital on Easter Sunday because I was not feeling so good. I was up all night and I was bleeding a little bit. So they checked me out and I was having contractions 2 minutes apart. I could not feel them, but they gave me a drug to stop them. I was in for about four hours and I was then sent home. They tested to see if my water had broken, it had not, and they checked to see if I was dilated, I was not. But they did say that the baby will probably come in a week or two! That news was a bit shocking. I still have four weeks!

I am still bleeding and I was having contractions all day yesterday. I really could feel those. So I called my doctor and she said to take it easy and not do anything. So that is what I did. When I woke up this morning I felt so much better. Now that I am at work, I am not feeling so good. Sitting in a chair is not so great. But, labor and delivery is just down the hall. So we will see how things go. 

Micco has been so helpful. She has been taking all her naps (and mine) with me. I like having her by my side. 

That is all for now. 

The Baby is Big!

These are the kinds of drawings I have been doing for the baby. 

Greetings! I had yet another baby appointment today. My doctor feels my stomach and says "six eight." And it took me a second to put these numbers together. The baby weighs six pounds eight ounces! I have just under five weeks to go. She said no more junk food, not that I have been eating much anyway. I have only gained 27 pounds, and I feel pretty good. The baby's head is down and it feels like it is dropping everyday. I have to waddle a bit when I walk now. I have to go back at the end of next week for a pelvic exam. Fun, Fun!

In other news. I am nearly settled into my new place. I really like where I am living now. I am sad to report that Jack the Cat is still living with my old housemate. I miss him and feel irresponsible for leaving him, but I did not do such a great job in renting a place that would allow him to come and go as he pleases. And he pleases to come and go quite a bit. The kitties on the Northside (where I live now) are pretty burly and I don't know how Jack would stand up. So if my old housemate ever moves I will take him back and I will be providing for his care.

This is me in my little office at the hospital where I have been able to get several drawings completed. 

I have nearly completed enough drawings for the show on May 1st. I still can't believe that I am going to put my drawings up for others to see in such a public setting. I will post the show when I get it set up. I still need to mat all of them and I am not looking forward to this task.
