New

I decided to start a new blog. I'm not really sure how I will divide the two up but this one is mainly for my records. I want to use it to record my life as a mother of young children and expecting more children. I don't know what our future holds in store for us, but if our past is any indication it's going to be a busy journey. I will try to keep it honest and real. That probably means I will do lots of complaining. I hate to say that but for now that's where I am at in this walk. It is not something I am at all pleased with and am seeking counsel on dealing with. So hopefully as I record you will see a difference in the attitudes of the previous posts.

So lets start with today......
I have a two year old, a one year old and I am currently 31 pregnants. Right when I found out I was pregnant this time I had to start seeing a chiropractor every week. I have had a lot of problems with my sciata nerve and that has caused even more problems. This has had the worst effect on my every day living. I can only do so much in a day so as not to get in completely bad shape. But for now I won't dwell too much on that. Just know that it has been hurting a lot and has gotten worse over the last two weeks.

So today was so supossed to have been the start of something new. I have hired someone to come in once a week to help me clean. We were originally going to start today but then she had something she needed to do and I had been hurting all weekend and had not gotten prepared like I wanted to before she came. So that has been put off until tomorrow.

Now for months and months my daughter has not been sleeping through the night. I'm not sure when it started but once it did it didn't stop. Well, she finally started sleeping through the night again a few weeks ago and the very same night she did my son started waking up during the night. Needless to say this has been a frustrating and exhausting process. I have tried all sorts of things but so far nothing has really worked. So last night I woke up about 3:30 to use the bathroom. When I wake up it takes me forever to go back to sleep. So thirty minutes later I am still awake and my son wakes up. He was still obviously sleepy and I ended up putting him in the bed with me. Well, he tossed and turned and talked for a good hour before he finally fell back asleep. I woke up this morning tired and not feeling well.
I did pretty much nothing all morning to be honest. I moved my appointment with the chiropractor up from tomorrow to today so I went to that around 3:45. My husband was planning on working for the rest of the evening so I ended up going over to my sisters and spending some time with her for a couple of hours. I then ran to Walmart to grab something I had forgotten off of my list and then came home.
So today was a pretty uneventful day as far as suceeding in getting things done around the home. I'm hoping to get up early to get a start on getting some cleaning done before my help arrives. I am too embarassed for anyone to see it the way it is and my plans for this week is for us to take everything out of my bedroom and put in our living room. We are in the process of trying to switch bedrooms. So wish me luck.
