One Busy Month

I know it's been a while since I've updated this blog, and I have so much to talk about, but very little time! In just a few minutes, the computer that I'm typing on will be turned off, broken down, and packed up, to be moved to our new home. This makes me a little sad. Ok, very sad. (I'm sure post-pregnancy hormones have something to do with it too.) In about an hour, the movers will be here to take out all our furniture. I'm excited about our new home, but I am sad to be leaving this one. It has been our home for over 7 years. It was our first house together, and we've brought two babies home to this house. So many memories here. Now it's time to make new memories in a new house! For this I am happy and so very blessed. It's bittersweet, for lack of a better word.

One thing I don't recommend is to have a baby, sell your house, buy/move to a new house, and have a garage sale within a month's time! It has been hectic to say the least. Hannah was born on April 24, the same day the tornado went through Yazoo City. I guess there is something about barometric pressure having an effect on going into labor! Up until that day, I didn't have a single contraction. But I woke up at 2 AM with some, and I wasn't going to take any chances and wait around where I couldn't get an epidural! (Thanks Dr. Cole for scaring me into thinking this could happen!) "The second baby will come faster than the first," she said. Well, we got to the hospital at 4:30 AM, and I was only 2.5 cm dilated! But my contractions were still coming, so they didn't send me home. I just had to wait until 2:48 PM to have this child. That part actually took longer than it did with Conner. Oh well, it all worked out in the end. I got my epidural, so I was happy. And a beautiful baby girl, of course!

Well, I would post more, but I must go and get some more things packed up! The next time I sit down to do this, it will be in our new home!
