Has it really been 4 months since I wrote a blog? Why yes it has... Because I HAD A BABY!!!! Yes I did indeed bring a human being into this world in February.. So life has been pretty hectic since then trying to take care of an almost 5 year old and get into a routine with a newborn has had its moments but we made it!! Going to do a little update on life, heres to hoping I continue to blog but as you have seen before it is a crap shoot with me, but I promise to try my best..
To start off my oldest son is FULLY potty trained now of course he has been for about 6 months now but since during my pregnancy I had just enough energy to take care of my son and that was about it I did not blog hardly at all.. Glad that part is out of the way but as I said before, I brought another human being into the world so this will be happening again real soon.. Remember my nursery school blog well that didn't end up going too well my son just did not like it so in January right before the baby was born we took him out and I am not ashamed to say that I was glad it made things so much easier after the baby was here to not have to take him and pick him up.. He is signed up for kindergarten which he will start on August 20th hope it goes alot better than nursery school because you can't quit this, I am also a little sad about this because it means my baby is growing up.. Hopefully it wont be like the nursery school first day disaster of 2013 but I won't be pregnant so it should go smoother.. He is still smart as ever and moody too, he seems to be taking the big brother role pretty well he has his good and bad moments most kids do.. Oh and he has went through 3 nabi's in less than an year (he can thank my dad for getting the for him cause it would have ended at 1 with me) 1st one he sent for a swim (I blame the commercial, this one only lasted 2 months), 2nd one the screen didn't want to work right so he broke it over his head (he clearly has anger issues but so does his dad and I so he gets it honest, this one lasted 7 months) last but not least my dad purchased him the newest one and as of now it has made it but its only been a month we shall see.. Well guess that gets you caught up on my oldest son in the past 6 months..
Now on to the newest addition if you read my other few blogs I did this past year then you already know it was another boy.. You also would know that my pregnancy with him was a little stressful and not the easiest so of course the labor was no picnic either.. Started contractions on a Sunday night at 8:00 pm finally got an epidural at 3:00 am (yes I went all that time in pain) just to have it not take because they put it in my spine which of course caused me to leak spinal fluid which in turn cause a spinal headache (I do not wish that on my worst enemy the pain was way more intense than child birth) so I had another epidural just to have them take it after and hour (has a similar experience with my 1st son except it was only one epidural).. They told me I should only have to push for 30 min. and he would be here (since I was dilated and thinned out so well) um 2 hours later I was still pushing it felt like he was never coming out (I hate the thoughts of a c-section but by then I was begging for it) but the nurse talked me down and 30 min. later I delivered my 10 lb. 5 oz. baby boy (yes you are reading that right my son was over 10 lbs. and I delivered him vaginally with very little pain med, you can say it I am SUPER WOMAN!!!) that is why I was having such a hard time he was so BIG!! He was 21 in. long and he is the best baby ever.. I think after the pregnancy and delivery I deserved that he only cries when he is hungry and fussies a little when he is sleepy.. He is my little chunk and a very happy baby he loves for you to talk to him and play with him in fact he smiles and talks back to you.. He is holding his head up very well, he is always trying to set up.. He is a blessing to our family and very loved..
Not much has changed for my except while I was pregnant not sure how but I lost 20 lbs which of course I a putting back on because I love soda and sweets too much :-/ but I do want to try to drink more water cut out the sweets and start walking with the kids.. Our dog is doing well she has taken the new addition pretty good, she is so funny, she walks up to him gets in his face to sniff him but if I put him near her she runs off like he is going to do something to her.. My sweet chinchilla has passed away though it happened in last September of last year she was 12 years old but it didn't make it any easier my son still asks about her even now, I miss her but animals can't live forever she is in a better place now.. Not much else to update on I hope to keep up with the blog in the future because I was reading through some of my old ones and I was really glad I wrote them, most of the stuff I had forgotten about so it was nice to read back through and remember.. So here's to keeping up the with blog-ashian (this is what I should call it from now on) hope to start up with new things and some old faves (cute and thrifty will be really cute now with baby clothes), of course I can't forget the thrifty Thursdays they were my absolute fave... Come along for the ride there will be laughs and maybe a few tears but it will be a blast.. Thanks for hanging in with me The Economically Thrifty Mommy!!
