Shower in the basement?

Just in case you needed to know, when your husband is upstairs taking a shower and it sounds like someone is taking a shower in the basement with you, this is not a good thing.

I don't even normally sit downstairs but decided I would lay on the couch and read/go on the computer, since if I try to read in the library all of my dogs try to sit with me in the smallish black chair.

But as I was sitting here, I heard what sounded like a shower and that it seemed odd but didn't really think to much of it. Then it kept sounding like it and since Jared was in his bathroom not downstairs, I actually got up to see what was happening. BOO! Water dripping from two different spots and lots of water on the ground, insert grumpy face here. Sometimes home ownership is not all that fun. Now poor Jared needs to try to figure out where the leak/leaks are and I'm sure he's had a long day already. Quite frustrating!

I will keep you all posted on what happens with the leaking basement.....

I heart Fall

As I'm sitting here with very restless legs(which seems to happen often later at night), I'm just thinking of all the really beautiful fall colors that I have gotten to see this Fall. I seriously love it!! I attempted to take a few pictures this of the trees this afternoon, but to no avail. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow since I think its supposed to be another gorgeous autumn day!

Today I got up a little early, and it was SOO foggy! My barn animals were still sleeping, lol. Ginger was still in the stall even! If you don't know, Ginger is my little goat who jumps in and out at will, and always comes out at breakfast and dinner and helps herself to whatever she feels like eating! She is so darn cute and fun! I just love her!

So that was from yesterday, but today was really nice again! Hooray!! :-)

I just had Jared take my 30 week picture, and here it is

I can hardly believe that time is going SO fast! In around 10 weeks, I get to meet this little one! Who by the way is taking up lots of space up high, and making it hard to breathe and even wear a bra. I don't really care if thats TMI, at least not that many people read my blog. We are finally gonna start the nursery within the next few weeks! Yay! And I need to find a crib, ugh! Why does every single one have to have like 5 things it can do, I just want a normal crib. I also really want a wooden high chair but thats also proving to be quite the thing to find. 

Well thats about all I have to write. And I'll leave you with one more picture of Dieter dog in the leaves yesterday.

Needing a nap

I want to take a nap sooo bad!! My dogs are all sprawled out and napping and I'm not! Seriously not fair! 

I'm tired because I was on call last night and this morning, and had to be to work at 7am! Yikes! I can't remember the last time I have been to work that early, probably years! But instead of napping today, I washed our sheets and put them back on the bed. Sleeping in fresh clean sheets is probably one of my most favorite things :-D So even more reason to look forward to bedtime, and without a nap maybe I'll even go to bed early! We shall see tho as that rarely happens even when I try!!

I'm at 29 weeks with ricebaby! Time is going sooo fast!! 

Ok well that's my quick little post m, luckily I need to go pick up Makayla otherwise I would be fast asleep!  

Read read read

Right now I'm currently reading Ina Mays Guide to Childbirth and it is soooo good! I seriously can't get enough of it and it just makes SO much sense to me. It has all the points of why I want a home birth and just so many points that I think far to many women don't understand or just isn't explained.

Just seriously so good! I'm loving it and loving learning so much more about birth and all the many many ways and different things one can do to have a better birth. I'm still so pleased that Ruth is going to be our Doula and that we are using a super great midwife, Emily! And I'm also really excited  that Linda French is hopefully going to be here as well!

Doing all the reading about natural child birth and just by talking with people I work with, who have no idea about things can be and how great they can be really really makes me consider going back to school, maybe midwifery or doula where schooling isn't required. Oh my goodness! i'm just so excited about it!

Let's see what else is new...I'm in the third trimester and I'm wondering how that happened so darn  fast! Crazy! The animal barn has been a big hit this fall, and its been really really nice to have a barn for all my friends! I just love all of the animals. :-) We are in the process of having our house painted, its going to look sooo great once its done! Our painter isn't the fastest but I can't wait for the end result! We ended up painting our front door a nice bright red and I LOVE it!! It looks so fun! I would take a picture of it but since the house isn't done being painted, it wouldn't look so great. But once the house is done being painted be prepared for some pictures!

Well thats about all I can think of right now, and I feel like I could take a nap. So maybe a little nap will be in my future....
