Movin' on up

I've never had the best, newest cell phone. It always worked and did what I needed it to. I was fine with that. I'm not sure why but a few months back Jaime and I discussed getting me a new phone when my current cell phone contract was up so I could switch carriers. We said we'd wait until the new iphone came out.
Soo, about a week ago Apple announced it's iphone 4S was going to be released October 14th.
Jaime, the wonderful tech savy man he is, preordered one for me and it was delivered to my door on October 14th. Let me tell you,
it's Ah-mah-zing!
I can ask my phone a question and it'll answer. This new feature is called Siri. I asked it to find an italian restaurant and it talks to me and tells me it's located ones near and listed them by rating. How awesome is that!
I can talk to it and tell it to schedule an appointment and it'll do it! If I schedule something else and it happens to be at the same time as another appointment it'll tell me so. It'll tell me of reminders that I tell it to remind me at a certain time and date.
This is totally what I need. I have this bad habit of double booking things. Even play dates! So I feel like I'm always canceling and rescheduling things. I'm hoping that Siri will help me stay on track now. I'm excited to say I've moved up in the tech world and finally got a "smart phone" and it literally is very smart!

Thanks Jaime! You really know how to spoil me.

For Unto Us A Child Is Born

On Wednesday December 16th I went to the hospital at 7 a.m. to start my induction. I was already dialated to a 3 and dr. said if I wanted to have the baby I could. I didn't want to be in the hospital or recovering too close to Christmas with my entire family home for the season so I said sure! I was finally underway at 8 a.m. with pitocin. The rest of the morning and afternoon was spent in boredom and watching tv with Jaime at my side. At around 12:45 the dr. came to break my water because that usually gets things going quick. My kids have all arrived shortly after the water breaks. However, since the baby's head kind of floated up he decided to wait a bit to not risk the umbilical cord coming out first or wringing around the baby's neck. Bummer! I was so disappointed. So, on to more waiting, turning up the pitocin...again. Finally at 3:30 p.m. I was having some strong contractions and dialated 5-6. My mother-in-law came to visit at 4 and Jaime told her that it would probab

SURPISE!!!!

Yes, this is true. And yes....this will be our newest addition to the family. You think you're surprised! Just imagine how surprised I was! Big time let me tell you. And in case you are wondering, I am just starting my first week of month number five. Yes, I am in my second trimester already. Hard to believe it's really gone that fast. I haven't been sick at all. It's been very nice. I could easily not know that I was pregnant because I don't feel like I am. This explains why I haven't been sick. It's a boy. I wasn't sick with Aidan either. I kind of figured it was a boy and this morning confirmed that it was. Here's the little guy in action. , We got up a little after 6 a.m. and got ready to head to the hospital. My mom showed up at 6:45 to watch the other three at home for us. Thanks Mom! We got to the hospital and you know the rest of the story there...boy. :) Everything looks to be good from what we saw but someone else will look

The Past Week...

Image
This past week has been a pretty laid back one. I've been getting things done on my own schedule...whenever I feel like it. Haha! Took the boys to the library, I've been making time (a.k.a. not working) to read a book for my own enjoyment, planted some flowers, made a few trips to the park with the kids, done a bit of shopping (grocery shopping at Winco is a lot of work with just me and the boys and I really have to gear up for it.), and I have been playing Sorry and Hi Ho Cherry O with Aidan quite a bit. So I have been busy just not with the normal stuff that keeps me busy on a daily basis.  I love browsing Costco with Jaime and my kids in the evening of a week day. It's not very crowded then. If there's a fun movie on the TVs we like to stop and watch a little. We stopped to watch a bit of the Avenger's in 3D...hence Aidan's glasses. :) I spent a day at Mom's with the boys. It was fun to be there with her and visit and do stuff like we used t
