Merry Christmas!!
,
I hope everyone had a joyous Christmas! We sure were busy and the kids had a wonderful time unwrapping presents and playing with their new things.
What a mess we made! I'm still working on getting everything put away, our play room is wayyyy overstocked now.
My big present for Christmas was a new Kindle! I love it. Now I can read books all I want without having to find a place to store them in my house. Did I mention how much I love it? I've been reading like crazy since I got it.
I started with Wings By Aprilynne Pike and now I can't wait for the sequel, Spells, to come out. The best part about the Kindle is how I get to 'try' books before I buy them, by downloading the first few chapters for free. It helps me make triple-sure that I want to continue the story. Awesome feature. I'm quickly starting a wish list on Amazon of all the books I want to read. I have a sweet little cover coming to protect my new baby too, isn't it pretty?
Early, early Christmas morning, about 1 am, I woke up to some unsettling events happening with my pregnancy. To make a long story shorter and as TMI free as possible, I'll just say I had a spontaneous bleed caused apparently by placenta previa. I had the same type of placenta issues with my first pregnancy, which never resolved, leading to a c-section. This time, the problem seems to be more severe and the bleeding is pretty significant. I have an appointment with a specialist sometime soon. My main hope is that I won't have any difficulties carrying this pregnancy to term and that the baby will continue to be healthy.
Amazingly enough, the kids happened to sleep in a bit on Christmas morning and only woke up about 10 minutes after I got home from L & D. What luck!! They never even knew I was gone. Boy was I tired though. Whew.
I'm pet sitting a pretty low maintenance dog down the street for the rest of the week. It is nice to play Mommy to someone else's dog for a while. My dogs are such hooligans, it is nice to hang out with another dog every now and then. It reminds me how much I like dogs....I tend to forget when I deal with my own turkeys so much.
I hope all of your Holiday celebrations were wonderful. And I will be wishing for all of you to have a prosperous new year!!

Looks like the kiddos had a great Christmas and I just can't decide about a kindle or not - honestly, haven't really "read up" (ha, lame, I know) on them that much though, either, but I really love to hold a book and snuggle up with it!
Sorry to hear about the little p-nut, hoping everything is OK with that - take care of yourself!
Oooh! Good luck with your placenta issues! Things like that make me grateful for modern medicine! Glad you enjoyed Wings!!:D
