Well today I was able to cruise all around the town...in my NEW CAR! It was great to be able to just go where I needed to go. I am really liking my van. it is so nice!
My first stop of the day was my doctor appointment. I wasn't actually able to get in with the doctor I had originally chosen, so they scheduled me with another doctor. I must say that I really, really liked this doctor, and so I have switched to her. She was so nice! I felt like she really cared and was willing to spend time with me to answer my questions, even though I wasn't officially her patient. That was a good sign. She is a new doctor, and she has a 2 year old little boy, and is expecting her second as well. She told Logan she hopes he comes every time because he reminded her of her son. That's a good sign too, that she was willing to have him there. Anyway, I left that appointment feeling much better, and much more comfortable. I am still a bit upset, because it looks like I will have to have another c-section, and I really don't want to. It makes me sad/mad that my body won't do what it is supposed to to deliver babies the way it is intended to. I just want my body to work. It is really making me upset about this. I don't want to have to have major surgery for every child we want to have. That in itself is risky, let alone doing it over and over. What if I am not able to have as many children as we feel we are supposed to have? I know things will work out the way they are supposed to, but I don't want to schedule a c-section, and never know if I could have had a regular delivery. But I also don't want to wait until I go into labor, only to be in labor for a million hours and then have to have a c-section anyway. I just don't know what to do. The doctor said it is my choice, but I don't want to make the wrong one. I guess I just need to pray about it, and maybe get a blessing as well to help me know what to do.
After the doctor, we headed to our insurance place to add a policy for our minivan. Then, we went to Babies 'R' Us to get a safety rail for Little buddy's new big boy bed. Right now he is just sleeping on the mattress on the floor, but I want to put the whole bed together and use the rail so he won't fall out. I think he really likes that he can get up and come out of his room when he wakes up. I don't mind either, as long as it isn't at 3:30 in the morning! He actually does pretty good at staying in bed to go to sleep, which surprised me. We still need to take the crib down, and move it out of his room. Hopefully we can do that tomorrow.
Our next stop was to Sam's Club to get milk, and a few other items. Little buddy was acting really sleepy, so we stopped at McDonald's to get lunch so I could hurry home and put him down for a nap. he didn't really eat much once we got home. He was feeling a bit warm to me too, so it looked like he was coming down with something. After his nap, we hurried and hopped back in the car and ran to the post office to mail a bridal shower gift for my future SIL. I made a really cute decorated lunch tin with 10 Thank You cards, a matching pen, and a matching address book. I hope she likes it. When we got home, Little buddy was feeling really hot, so I took off his clothes and let him hang out in his diaper watching Charlie Brown until daddy got home. Daddy had surgery on his ingrown toenail today, and so he will be limping around for a few days. I am glad it will finally be taken care of, and shouldn't bother him anymore.
Tomorrow will be another big day, so I better hit the hay! I have got to get things in order to prepare for Thanksgiving and my parents! Yippee!

I have so much to comment on I'm so excited you have a blog!
1. New car+DVD player= FABULOUS! Drive that puppy up to Nebraska soon so I can see it!
2. The idea of getting your downline lunch tins is also FABULOUS! As long as mine isn't filled with yummy treats, I'll be good. I wouldn't mind at all having it filled with cards. I love cards! Although, I do see your point.
3. Speaking of yummy treats, you are famous for your FABULOUS treat making skills.
4. I'm glad the dissertation is going to be over soon. That will probably take a big load off of both of you! And, that will be FABULOUS!
I love your blog! Congratulations on your new van and new doctor! I'm sorry you have to make that hard choice of c-section or trying for the regular way. I don't envy you at all...thank goodness for prayer.
Okay, so unfair! It sounds like things are overall going really well for you. That's so exciting.
Congratulations on your Blog. It can be addicting I've decided.
You are a great upline. I'm sure all those in your downline are greatly benefitting from being in your group.
Don't worry about L being in the midst of his twos. I've decided it gets even worse before it gets better. At least when they're young like him you can just laugh it off since they don't know much better. It's when they get older and do understand how they should act that you really begin to worry.
Aw sweetie, allow me to let you in on a little secret. Vaginal births aren't the lovely spiritual experience that the naturalists will have you believe. They're gruesome. Don't feel like you're missing out. My sister had post traumatic stress disorder for several months after her first was born. The doctor said it was similar to what you'd expect for a rape victim. God put c-sections on the earth for a purpose.
Really, parenting isn't much about how they're born anyway, but what you do with them afterwards. Aren't I all wise? haha. Look how fabulous Logan is.
When do we get to see pictures of the new car?????
