Baby's new apartment

Thanks to everyone that helped us move this past weekend - esp to the guys who had extra long "shifts" with us!

We are excited to be living in what will be the baby's first home. He is lucky and gets his own room (except for when we have out of town guests - then he shares with mom and dad). Still slowly unpacking and trying not to over exert myself too much. I keep waking up at night and wanting to go out and look through boxes and unpack. I guess I shouldn't worry though since I will have more time now that I am laid off because of the strike.

We love having guests over so please feel free stop on by.
I am sure that at some point we will have everyone over for a housewarming/party of some sort.

24 weeks Ultrasound

Here is the baby's ultrasound from 24 weeks. You can see his beating heart and his cute little legs bunched up.

Sheesh

So my hormones are totally kicking in I think because I am starting to cry at little things. Angry - cry. Happy - cry. Sad - well obviously cry.

Not sobbing or anything Just tearing up. It is quite annoying. I suppose the stress of moving and the accident doesn't help but still. I was watching one of the videos on this blog and I started tearing up.

Good grief.

Just a warning for the next time you see me....

Mommy & Baby in an Accident :(

Hi Everyone

The baby and I got into a scary accident Thursday, but we are both fine. We were on the freeway when someone decided to start merging into our left lane without looking and I honked & swerved to avoid them. When I had looked back the person had continued to come into our lane. Unfortunately I lost control during the second swerve and before I knew what was happening, the car was spinning and hit the center divider. The air bags deployed and the car ended up almost perpendicular to the divider. Very scary.

I got out of the car as soon as I could because the air bag dust and debris was everywhere. The driver door was blocked a little bit, but I managed to push the debris out of the way.

Luckily a Metro Safety guy was close by and drove right up to me and helped me call the CHP and the paramedics. Everyone was very nice to me. Got my poor little car to the right side of the freeway and then went to the body shop that I knew was close by. The car is pretty much totaled because there is a lot of front end damage.

Went to the hospital with Ray afterwards and they monitored the baby for a couple of hours to make sure I wasn't having contractions or anything. He was fine and kicking quite a bit when we were there. The doctor said that he was very active :)

I'd like to take a moment and just remember my lovely little blue Corolla S, which protected me and served me so well to the end. I will miss it. Ray & I didn't take any pictures of it at the body shop because I don't think it would have wanted to be remembered that way.
