Stalled We get to the hospital in twenty five minutes. The one time I look at the speedometer Ben is going seventy five. :-) We check in and then head up to triage, where Jordan meets us. Things slow down now. A lot. This is why....we have a new nurse who is working her second shift at this hospital. As soon as she sees that Seth was born via c-section she immediately wants to go start getting things ready for a RCS. I tell her that I am refusing the c-section. She looks at the other nurse in ... continue reading...
New Year, New Diet
Seth and Cameron had appointments with our holistic chiropractor yesterday. Both boys got good adjustments and Momma got answers to some questions.

Sleep is a Beautiful Thing
Can someone please tell my boys that sleep and naptimes are awesome? :) We have been having sleep issues lately and that has turned into attitude issues.

Thankfully he hasn't thrown to many, but he has been really tired lately. He is fighting naps, which he still desperately needs, so we have started moving them later, but ... continue reading...
My VBAC Journey: Another Surgery
At my first appointment with my OB/GYN, after Seth's birth, one of the first things we talked about was the uterine septum that had been found during my c-section. We agreed that I would come in later for some ultrasounds to see how big the septum was, and that for the best chance for a VBAC I should wait until Seth was 18 months to get pregnant again. In January of 2012 I had the ultrasounds done. I told myself going in that I was expecting to need surgery to remove the septum, however when ... continue reading...
