No No NO!

The sinuses are beginning to rupture again. This cannot happen. I do not want to be in bed without energy on my Christmas break! Sigh. Woe is me. 

I also never heard how painful these kicks can get. I know, I know . . . I don't know pain yet. But she is seriously making me uncomfortable with her karate! I'm glad REALLY happy to know she's alive, but I really don't think it's a necessary reminder every second.  If today was a sneak peak into the next 4 months, joy is me. "Oh she's kicking" always sounded so cute. CUTE. mmhm.

Any way. I ate my orange and now I'm hitting the sack. At least I'm hoping I knock myself out.

Mr Smith and I, well, more like Mrs Smith (me) stressed herself out and is probably making herself sick by finding grief and making something stressful. Expectations. They're stupid. Mr Smith half pities my woes. He tried to come home on time like he said he would so we could go to the store. So I end up trying to get there alone before it closes and I can't find the store. Woe Woe Woe. So we go to Walmart for milk and canned soup to add to the food storage so that Mr Smith sleeps a little easier at night.

PPS - the smell in the apartment may be linked to wiring in our water heater. They said they fixed it. But that smell still lurks when you initially walk in. It's a fire hazard. We'll pray extra hard for safety tonight.

  1. The kicking will start to subside some as baby grows and there is not as much room to wiggle around :) But those feet in your ribs will always be painful. All the way to the end... :)

There is a Plan for That

  Perhaps I'm ready to begin again, again. I struggle to add more words to the universe & I feel the same with photos. I let two of my passions die, both rather abruptly. My posts used to write themselves, I felt so guided in what God needed me to say. But this past year, my words have been removed. I moved from this blog over to Instagram as a better place to connect, but then everything became a distraction, and even the good distractions soon became too overwhelming. I can't possibly do every craft or recipe I've saved at this point. Unfortunately, I became painfully aware of my addictive attachment to my algorithm & lost much of my peace & productivity because of it. Satan knew, but I was too slow to recognize complacency & emptiness disguised as creative options & worldly debates. "The days are gone that you can be a quiet and comfortable Christian." I am definitely not raising quiet Christians, but perhaps we are still trying to be too co...

Our Baby Story - Alexis

Alexis Jane Smith 04.27.13 - 5:16PM 8lbs 15oz - 22.5 inches brown hair, undetermined (blue) eyes NB clothes are too tight You hate diaper changes You love being swaddled You are a piranha for food Your skin is perfect You sleep better with noises You came out sucking on your fingers But luckily you're not a scratcher Basically, we think you're perfect. First day at home photo Dear Lexi,  We couldn't handle holding you inside my stomach for another minute. We made an appointment when the contractions never came. Things were changing, but you were still 7 days late. Maybe we were eager parents, but now that we have you in our arms, we understand why, really understand. You're amazing . By the time we showed up at your 6 AM hospital appointment to be induced, I was already 3.5 cm dilated & 90% effaced & having mild contractions. So mild I thought I might have had high pain tolerance because I didn't feel th...

We're patiently waiting

Picture Mr Smith putting together the pack-n-play. He was so cute. Mostly when he had to read the directions. Do we have a child? Don't ask such silly questions. Hopefully it won't collect too much dust in 5.5 months. We're ready now . . . (but not really) It has a changing thing and a removable bassinet that vibrates.  I'm okay with not needing a changing table.  It will probably mean we won't get a crib for awhile too.  Next we need to hear from our baby/exercise friends a good car seat & jogging stroller (maybe ones that work together)... Any favorites? Then a blanket . . . Then a breast pump . . . Then a diaper bag. . .  Then lots of diapers, toys & cute clothes.  And even a mobile.  Then they get older and there's even more things. Mr Smith is just so thrilled. I'd love to hear about any products that you recommend/absolutely love having. Here is one thing you can do to annoy Mr Smith: go ...
