Progress is progress

I have this idea in my mind that once there are two humans to look after, juggling them around gets a little more complicated. I keep thinking though, when I need to handle Autumn, I can always put Emelia in her crib and at least she would be safe, right???

In the walker in the crib
Wrong!!! Autumn has no trouble opening the door to Emelia's room despite the fact that we have a door knob cover on it. Once in the room, Autumn has no trouble at all getting in the crib.

You might be asking yourself, what is that in the crib. I'll tell you. It is a walker for Emelia. I had it setting out on the floor and Autumn got stuck in it like three times, so I collapsed it and put it in the crib thinking, how smart am I?? I'll just put this where Autumn cannot get it. Once again, WRONG!!!

Driving
I suppose the whole motivation behind getting in the crib was to get in the walker.

Having fun
At least she is having a good time. Guess we will have to come up with some sort of a way to keep Autumn from going into Emelia's room.

On a different note, it was sunny out today. Sean planted my:

Tomato
Tomato plant (shown above) and my rosemary. I'm so excited to start planting.

Sunshine
Maybe not the best picture of Autumn, but you see she is enjoying the sunshine!!

After some fun in the sun, we headed out to see the doctor for my 39 week appointment. Doctor said I was 1 cm dilated and that she'd see me next week. That didn't give me much hope that she thought I'd go into labor anytime soon, but progress is progress!!!! I'll take it.

Hopefully the next time I post, it is with pictures of Emelia.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
