I woke up early (5:15 am) this morning to go volunteer at my local Bountiful Baskets site. Therefore, I am extremely tired and can't be held accountable for anything I say here. So Michael's job is awesome in every way. I love having him home in the evenings and on weekends. He is much less stressed and when fall comes he will be able to go to school with much less difficulty. It is weird adjusting to him being home. **disclaimer** lovey stuff ahead*** I love him so much and enjoy being around him so intensely that I've been feeling pretty giddy about getting to spend time together. He is definitely my best friend.
Tenzin is watching Dora as I type this and she is teaching him Spanish:
Dora: Say "Te amo"
Tenzin: Damn you!
Dora: That's right, "Te Amo", I love you.
Tenzin: Damn you! I yuv you!
I love that rascal.
I just got two root canals done in the past 2 weeks. In the end, they were very successful and I feel great. In the interim, however, I had excruciating pain and agony. Hate hate hate. I'm so glad that it is all done and I don't have to eat through a straw anymore.
So I am ready to be feeling better, I'm hoping that this summer is less physically taxing than the last part of this winter has been. I'm trying to grow a baby here, but it seems like I can't gain weight or even think about the baby that much with all of this crud going on.
Well, I'm done complaining. I'm grateful for everything I have, I just had to grump around a little. Tenzin and Lilli have been growing so fast, I love it and also miss all of their littleness. They are so excited about the baby they can hardly stand it. Tenzin whispers secrets to my tummy, mostly "I love you"'s and other such sweet nothings. We've watched videos, so he has a pretty good understanding of what a is going on in there. Lilli talks a lot about after the baby comes and how she is going to help out. She wants to be there when the baby is born, so I did a bunch of research and praying and decided that it would be fine to have her there. In preparation we have been watching birth videos, especially those where kids are there. She likes the science of it all and has lots of good questions. She's very excited to help, so I am going to have to think of some little jobs for her to do during the birth, because otherwise I think she'll get bored. Thankfully, the birthing center has a huge waiting room with a big screen tv and toys and books and stuff. Well, I'm too tired to think anymore...
