hmmm… what?
So, apparently, even though I have all this time on my hands, I can’t be bothered to post anything all that often. Of course, all this time on my hands also means that there’s really nothing going on!
Yesterday was my last ultrasound until the day I go into the hospital, which is just over a week away. I am still having periods of pure nervousness, and I really don’t know why. I know I’ll be fine. So, whatever. But, anyway, here is the ultrasound picture. They did a 3D (or 4D or something) for the first time.

You almost have to use your imagination to see this one. The baby is upright, looking right at you, feet sticking up in front of her abdomen. She’s still breech, but I guess that’s to be expected.
And I got me some earrings :)
People keep thinking I’m weird that over the last few weeks I’ve been saying I need some earrings. But here, all I had is danglies any more and I can’t wear those in the hospital and I think that 8 weeks in the hospital plus all this other time with no earrings and they might close up. So I wanted some studs I can sleep in and wear all the time. Finally ended up with four pairs yesterday, some gold and some sterling silver, at great prices. :) So now I’m good to go. I guess, haha.
I’ve also installed this this program on the desktop that allows me to do this remote support thing from the laptop. It’s really awesome, TeamViewer, and is free for personal use. And what I’m doing is very personal. I use it to spy on Elijah, lol. He’s only 5 after all, and, for instance, I just heard him yell from the computer, “MOMMY! Come here!” I said I can’t, and he said, “Then look at the computer and see what I did!” He was freaking out because he expanded a toolbar, haha, he gets so neurotic when something unexpected happens on the computer. But with this program, I can just log in and take care of whatever neurosis he has going on without getting up. It’s saved a lot of heartache running back and forth, which I am not supposed to be doing anyway. The only thing it doesn’t help with is my psycho printer which has been freaking out for people lately. Apparently, it thinks it’s much too good to have a used ink cartridge and demands a new one before the refilled one is empty. I hate that. :P
And I just have to LOL
My phone just rang and it was 4 Wheeler Magazine calling for Steve who is unavailable. Those people crack me up. He subscribed for one year several years ago and then decided not to renew it when the time was up. So for something like the past 2 years, they are still sending him magazines as well as RENEW NOW LAST CHANCE mailings constantly. It’s like, can’t they take the hint he’s not going to send in the money? He doesn’t even have time to look at the magazines they do send along with all the other stuff he gets. I think it’s absolutely hilarious and every time I get a LAST CHANCE mailing I say “Good! Go away!” But they never do. :)
I'm Valerie, late 20's, from Missouri. I'm married... with children: a young boy and a baby girl. I enjoy many things including photography, candle making, videography, history, and mythology. Baby Girl was born 11 weeks early after my water was broken for 8 weeks - she's my little miracle - so you're bound to hear a lot about her progress here. I am also a second generation homeschooler, that's bound to come up as well.

I can see her! That’s really cool about TeamViewer, I’d never even heard of something like that!
Other than that, I hope things are going well for you…well as well as can be expected right?
