yesterday could have been too much.
***
Doctor running 40 minutes late.
Glucose test.
Rhogam Shot.
Nap interrupted. Again.
Wild Child.
***
but somehow it wasn't
***
Doctor reviewed my surgical chart from previous c-section and determined I'm actually not a candidate for a v-bac even if I'd wanted to be.
It seems they had some trouble getting Wells out and had to make a vertical incision on top of the horizontal incision on my uterus.
So I felt that the decision was in God's hands and not mine and I felt better about that.
***
We picked a date.
An official holy crap I'm having another baby on that date date.
***
Wells threw my shoe over the railing upstairs straight to the first floor.
I gave her my toughest mom look and said
"Wells that is NOT okay. We do NOT throw things over the edge like that"
"NO MA'AM"
***
She promptly walked backwards slowly into her room, hid behind her door and stayed there for a few minutes.
She put herself in time out.
I was so proud of her.
***
And I got to photograph a brand new beautiful baby girl!

To know your date IS the silver lining, right?
ReplyDeleteHow funny is it when you have to start giving the "angry mom" look? What a cutie that she put herself in timeout! Too funny.
Aw sweet Wells put herself in timeout? What a smart girl. And here's for having a date at least. Sorry it was a rough one yesterday.
ReplyDeleteUgh... those glucose tests are such a bummer :( My stomach hurts just thinking about the taste. Ok, so impressed Wells put herself in timeout. When I tell Izzy not to do something her response is usually, "Let me do it!" Really kid?
ReplyDeleteThat has to be the cutest story I've heard. I always love your blog - it gives me 1 minute of beauty and peace in an otherwise crazy world. Thanks!! Hope you passed the glucose test - those things are awful :(
