Finally an update

Most of you know of the stress that my family has been going through.
On top of this high risk pregnancy, things have been rough!
In short:

-my dad has been really sick. We are still waiting for him to see a specialist, to find out what will happen long term, but for now he is at home. He is doing well. We are all still on edge, hoping for the best. The one huge positive is the biopsy on the pancreas came back as NOT cancer!! Now we wait to deal with the rest...one day at a time...and a lot of praying :)

-I am DONE work. Not by choice, but by health reasons. The stress of my dad being sick and my high BP made it impossible for me to do my job effectively. I could not imagine working with palliative patients while my dad is ill. And the heavy workload of nursing was not working.
So I am on 15 weeks of sick leave (starting Aug 17, as I had banked time to take first :) ) and will go straight into mat leave. my mat leave will run out a month or so before the baby is a year....SOOOOOO
-I decided to resign from my part time line. When I go back to work, it will be in my own time, and I will work when I want....and it will be VERY casually.
I want to be home with my babies again. They come first. I am domestic and belong here....
I LOVE nursing, but I want it to be for me, when I want to do it. AND when the kids dont need me anymore ;) I will have something to go back to!

I am over 15 weeks now, but my uterus says I am 19 or so. lol. Yes, I am big. I am going for an US on august 5 to see why I am SOOOO big.
I have my new OB<> and I will be seeing the clinic too often to make sure baby is ok due to this high bp. So I think I will be busy enough.
AND of course I need to relax :)

The heat here is unbearable lol...it is so humid, 30 degrees feels like 40 lol. Thank goodness for AC, but I still cook...I am a furnace. I am happy I am earlier pregnant for sure lol.

We had to let our nanny go. She will be done the end of august. I am trying to help her find cleaning jobs, and she is looking for another nanny job. I will miss her, she is really a super nanny!

Arianna will be 6 in a couple weeks. I am trying to get ahold of a few school friends to have a little party for her. She is working on her grade one workbook, she is way more focused on school then James...and she loves it. Smart little girl.

Well there is a quick update from me....I need to get somer recent pics. I will try this week.
