Daddies boy.

I started back at my internship last week. This includes trying to now juggle Nathan and working at the same time. One of my first jobs was to help with a training on Saturday morning. So I left Nathan half asleep and Daniel with a bottle. I thought he would need to eat before I could get home. However, Nathan decided that this morning is a great morning to take a long nap and he slept the entire time I was gone. This means he took a three hour nap that morning. I thought that this was a fluke, he normally sleeps about two hours for his morning nap, but I figured he may have been tired that day.
Then, I left the boys on Monday for what I call "father, son day." This is my day to meet with people while Daniel gets one on one time with Nathan. I stayed home until Nathan was ready for his morning nap at 9am. Monday is Daniels day off, which means he likes to sleep in. I expected Nathan to wake Daniel up at 11am and need to eat. I came home at 1:30pm and found Daniel just finishing feeding Nathan. I thought this was his second bottle of the day, but no he took a four hour nap that morning! Who is this child? I know he's a good sleeper but this is crazy. And why does this never happen when I am home with Nathan? I think that they must have a special bond.

Elastic waist pants

One update that I forgot was that I made the transition to Maternity pants. I've been wearing my regular pants and using Bella Bands. Which are an awesome invention that my friend lent to me. Its basically a tube top for your waist that covers up the fact the your jeans are unzipped and help together with a rubber band. This worked for awhile. But then, I tried maternity jeans. Here's the story of me buying maternity clothes: I had a left over gift certificate from our wedding to use and I didn't know what to buy with it. It was kind of weird to me to use it for this purpose, but it is what we need right now. Nothing like keeping the major life events on a close timeline. When I tried them on, I learned that they are not just an elastic waist. Maternity jeans are made of 100 percent stretch fabric. They are the comfy sweat pant of the jean world. Sure they might have a fake zipper, but I can wear them all day and not race home and undo the multiple rubber bands extendin...

Labor Induction Technique that does work....

Almost from the day that I found out that I was pregnant, I thought that Jesus told me (weird, I know) that baby Goulet was going to come on October 21st. October 21st is also the anniversary of Daniel and I getting engaged. The year that we got engaged October 21st was sweetest day, so Daniel thought that it was a perfect day to get engaged. Even though I have thought that whole time that I would have a baby on the 21st, I am not a patient woman. And I especially do not like surprises, so the suspense of going in the labor was killing me (see previous posts). On the 20 th , in my quest to go into labor I drank Castor oil. Gross I know, but I mixed it with juice and it wasn't bad. I went for me daily walk, and felt nothing. Within a couple of hours, the Castor oil had kicked in. Castor oil in found at drug stores, and is typically used as a laxative. I can now say from personal experience, that it is a good laxative if you would like to completely clean your bowels out...

Things you should know about your father.

Since I have shared about me, I figured that I would share about your father. He was quite surprised to hear that you are coming into the world. But as reality has set in he is getting very excited to be a dad. So here are some things that you should know about your dad. 1. He is not a morning person. I am pretty sure that this will never change, he is not awake without two cups of coffee and a shower. 2. He is now officially the "nutrition police" of this pregnancy. He is very concerned with what I eat and that I have enough good nutrition (even though I have some inside sources that tend to give me chocolate and treats as needed :) ) Along these lines, I read that if I drink carrot juice everyday, that you will have a preference for carrots. So, maybe Daniel is on to something here. 3. He always wears a minimum of three layers of clothing (shirts that is). Even in the summer, he does not sweat, so he layers it up. 4. He sometimes has Germany relapses and will speak only in ...
