"Look, Mommy! I'm cute, too!" - A Post By Kitter

I've been a big sister for a few weeks now, and it hasn't been so bad, really. Mommy spends a lot of time with the baby, but I get to spend time with them both sometimes.

Plus, I'm a very responsible big sister and make sure that the baby is okay when she is in her bouncer or swing. I check on her a lot.

Once I'm sure she's okay, I get to snuggle with Mommy on the couch again. This is my chance to remind her that I'm extremely cute, too, so that she won't forget about her sweet Kitter.

I really am a sweet Kitter.

Hi!!!! I've missed so much. I haven't looked around the blogs much lately and this morning is the day. What a tremendous treat to see all your posts! Leah is such a dolly. I love your post on Thoughts. You are such a good mama. What a special time for you and Scott and Leah. I am just so happy for you guys.

Also, I've been waiting to see how Kitter feels about her new position in the family and it sounds like she's adjusting remarkably well. Nice work Kitter.

God bless you all and I'll try not to stay away too long again. :)

Jess, imagine my delight to see all these Leah--and kitter--pictures on your blog when I came back from the Hospital and all the drama of yesterday and Thursday! I feel so guilty that I have so much baby/prego journaling to catch up on and I'm just too sick and nauseated to do it. Yuck! We got to see the baby again yesterday. They weren't going to do a sonogram but my uturus leans back and they couldn't hear the heartbeat so it was back to the vaginal ultrasound. This time, the machine wasn't nearly as high tech as the first time since they did it in the doctor's office, but we still got to see the baby...who's moving around a little but--involuntarily at this point, and at one point stuck his/her little hands out and I could see all the tiny finger stubs on top of the tiny arms. I was delighted. We also got to see the tiny movement that indicated the heartbeat and even the umbilical chord! I feel blessed having had so many ultra sounds already--TWO before I'm even supposed to have had my first. I just wish I were feeling well enough to enjoy this time. I'm miserable--still..and the anti nausea meds they gave me yesterday take away the urge to vomit but make me feel worse everywhere else and also make me fall asleep.
Dave's doing well. He still has a drain coming out of the back of his head that they'll probably remove Tuesday. It's very uncomfortable for him and the pain of the surgery is starting to kick in too.
Last night we had another bat flying through our house...and my mom was freaking out, and I suprisingly wasnt though probably because I just woke up and poor Davce had to run around the house chasing it til he finally found and killed the thing. I felt so badly I couldn't help him but I just couldn't, and neither could my mom who in shrieks and squeals retreated to the couch to watch from there. I was thinking "Man! We're just going to have to sleep with the thing in the house today." but I prayed and the bat got tired of flying and played dead right out in the open where we turned his play into reality and Dave scooped him out onto the porch or something and then--very dizzy--retreated to the couch where both of us fell asleep and my mom was left alone with the willies left from the creepy, flying rodent. I just want to be out of the house before the baby comes because I don't want those hideous things near our little precious.

It occurs to me that I've written a blog on your comment...so maybe I'll just copy and paste it later to my blog to catch up the rest of my SMALL audience!
