The Making of M.O.M.

Oh holy smokes it's Friday again. I was sure hoping I'd be in the hospital this Friday holding a cuddly baby OUTSIDE my body. Instead, the stomach virus showed up full force at our house around 11:00pm last night. It continued to plague us every hour until about 5:00am.

So far, only Elizabeth and Lucas have been effected. We are praying they are the only ones, but these things usually don't just "skip" family members. So, it's actually a blessing that the baby isn't here yet. I can't imagine the panic I'd feel knowing the stomach virus was sweeping my house and my newborn was in the midst of it all.

There would absolutely not be anything funny about that. Not one thing at all.

Hope y'all have a great weekend. I plan on having a baby. Now, if I can just get the baby and my body on my plan, it will really be a great weekend.

Well, I packed my hospital bag this weekend in the hopes that Baby Beaver #6 was waiting on me to be "ready." Turns out, Baby could care less that I'm ready.

So, I thought I'd go a step further and go ahead and add twitter to my blog so that when I (finally) do go into labor I can tweet and you all can see updates right here on my blog, if you care. If you do care, you can find those updates right over there on my right sidebar.

Or you can click here and see all my updates on twitter. Most likely after the baby comes I will remove twitter from my blog again. When it's up, I feel pressure to update it. And, I like to set goals that I can actually reach. And, quite frankly, my life just isn't that interesting to need to update twitter several times a day. Well, okay, some days are that interesting but I forget (repeatedly) to refill Lucas' juice cup so chances are I won't remember to tweet about something interesting.

Although today I may need to communicate with EVERYONE via twitter because apparently I've caught a cold that has caused me to lose the majority of my voice. That should go well today with 5 kids who don't really listen when I have my whole voice in tact.

I wonder if using Twitter to help Elizabeth learn to read would be a good idea? Probably not.

Anyway, y'all have a good Monday.
