Be My..Be My Baby

Ok we are really ready for this child to get out of my wifes belly. It's downright painful to have to bear witness to how much pain he puts her in sometimes. We made another trip to the hospital Friday. The pain was so much she could barely walk down the stairs but this time we went to the hospital where she will actually have the baby and saw the nurses and doctors and so forth that will actually work with her then. It wasn't exactly the way I wanted to take our tour of the birthing facilities but I can say that the hospital is very nice and when he finally does decide to get out, she'll have an enjoyable stay. This trip around, they gave her another shot for the contractions but also had to give her a few quarts of fluids to get her hydrated correctly. I feel awful that there isn't more that I can do when she is feeling so much pain and they say that we'll just have to bear with the uncomfort a few more weeks till he's ready to come out. I'm doing what I can to help but it's really hard when there just isn't much you can do to help. This trip lasted a good 7 hours or so but we took the advice the doctors gave to use stiffer and bigger pillows to help support the baby when she's lying down and she was doing a little better.

In other news, she's officially homeless. No, I didn't kick her out but her house sold at auction saturday which was a huge relief to us because we definitely weren't trying to make two house payments. It wasn't a huge house and wasn't in an area with very high property values but it sold for in the range of what she expected which is good because it will help us eliminate some wedding and baby debt. I do wish that she'd been able to keep it since it had been in their family for years but her dad takes care of all their rental properties and it's getting to be just too much for him at his age. She gave up something in this and I decided to give up something too. The baby is just a few weeks away and I really dont think we can tote him around in my M3 and while her 325i had four doors, it really just wasn't going to be feasible for hauling a baby and up to three kids so I traded my car and she gave up her truck and we got.......A Minivan...OH HELL NO!!!, neither of us EVER want to drive a Minivan. We got an SUV, which one you say? Well you'll have to pester her to update her blog so you can see for yourselves. We are truly family now.

The Kids say Hi

We did some painting over the weekend. The baby keeps trying to drill his way outta Tara and we figured it was time to get his room ready. When it's done we'll post some pictures here or there but the kids wanted to help. There's only so much ground you can cover with a drop cloth so instead of letting them help with the room, we decided to let them paint elsewhere. So I present to you the work of RSD.





And the finished product. We love it.


And of course Dad had to get in the act.

For Cyggie

I'm so sorry I missed your gracious exit from that Other Place. I know there was no boot but I still sense a bit Paw Print on your ass as the door hit you where your good lord split you. I haven't been around much either but I must say I didn't miss your pandering to yourself or pumping up your super blue skills with every post. I was among those who didn't care for the whole baby-killer label or the way you showed your ass every chance you got. But that's not why I'm posting today. I'm posting because your 15 minutes of nothing was up a long time ago and you decided to try to scratch another 5 seconds out by clogging up my wifes blog with your crap. I think everyone else has already said there exactly what I feel but I will take a queue from HD and say please take a flying fuck off a short bridge you sanctimonious pig of a person. I DO believe in God and I as such I must forgive you of your ignorance and blatant hypocrisy but I do not have to forgive or like you. I just can't hate you so I don't hate you but man do I loathe you.

When I pray and I do, I will pray that some day you will learn what an asshole you really are and ask your God to show you how to be a reasonable christian.

Happy Birthday Honey

I hope that I can make it home tonight so we can celebrate. I miss you millions of bunches.

Shiny New Postey

Time flies when you're having fun. I guess we've been having too much fun to remember to post lately. Our visit with Stephie and K was awesome and we hated to see them go. Last week we had family down for the 4th of July. Actually we were expecting them on the 5th of July but when Tara called to ask about how to grill ribs, we found out they were already on their way. It was great, the grandparents got to see R at one of his Karate classes and that weekend my boys came over and Shawn got to actually participate in R's class. It's been a good week and some.

This week I'm in SC for a few days working and it was hard. This is the first time we've been apart for more than 8 hours since they moved in. Hopefully I'll finish up this afternoon and can be on my way home tomorrow midday. Which by the way is a very special someones Birthday. She knows who she is. I love you honey.
