So much has been going on. I barely have time to pick my nose, let alone blog anymore. I love blogging, which is why I keep coming back! I would do it on my phone, like I do everything else, but I like sitting down at the computer to write out my feelings. :)
Ava is 4 months old today and already the most amazing baby. She stays up late, but once she goes to sleep she generally sleeps all night. Kate and El are absolutely in love with her. I would say it's been perfect, but that would be a lie. But I will say that they dote on her, kiss on her, they fight over who gets to cuddle with her. They like to entertain her, and are entertained BY her. It's been good. Kate has been more emotional about just things, but Ellie.. omg Ellie. She has been driving me just about crazy!! She is such a sweet little girl, when she wants to be. But she has been driving me nuts! She honestly gives me such a run for my money. She reminds me that parenting isn't easy! Kate never went through the terrible twos.. Ellie has been coasting through them, and driving me nuts in the mean time! She saves most of her trouble causing for when I'm busy with Ava. If she would just cut that out, then honestly this transition would be just about amazing.
Carl got a job promotion, I am so proud of him. :) We're gearing up to move here soon. Trying to find a place closer to my parents, but it's proving difficult. We'll see how it goes.
I am recovering from surgery. I started feeling crampy, and that turned into a major stomach ache that sent me to the walk-in (was planning to go to the ER, but after checking the wait times for the walk-in online, I decided to just go there to avoid a larger bill...) after many tests/an ultrasound, it turned out I had a strangulated hernia. Basically between all of the stress I've been under, having children, w/e else, I had a hole in my muscle lining. In my case a bit of my intestine was pushing into it, and the hole tried to cut it off. Causing me some SERIOUS pain! I had to have emergency surgery that day, and after a night in the hospital I have been home trying to feel better. It hasn't been easy. I am a terrible patient. Carl is a terrible cleaner. SO I've been cleaning, and doing all of the things I'm not really supposed to be doing... Can't lift over 15lbs for 4 weeks (it's been 1 week now, so 3 more!) Just have to take it easy, but that is hard to do with 3 little girls and a husband who doesn't do house work. I'm not sure if its because he's lazy or if it's because he doesn't know how, but I married a man who doesn't clean. It's annoying to say the least, but we've gotten into a groove now, that he will do w/e I ask him to do, if I remember to ask him anyway. Most of the time I just go ahead and do it myself. lol
Anyway, I have a million more things I want to cover, but I just can't right now. I have to start dinner soon. Kate and El are being crazy and Ava should be waking up form a nap any moment. <3 Until next time.
