Eyeball has flipped! At least as of my last appointment on Thursday he/she was head down. Its still quite the wiggly lil baby though, so hopefully it'll stay down. I was sooooo happy to hear it :) I think it's because Eye's daddy is finally home where he belongs. And everything else with me and Baby seems to be just fine minus a sick day for me the day of my appointment. And with the last appointment begins me weekly appointments so now I'll be back in on Wednesday then every week til the munchkin arrives. Can't wait!
What else? Riverdance is coming to Duluth on the 29th and I sooooo wish we could go but tickets are super expensive and then I would have to buy fancy clothes that I hope I'd only be able to fit into one other time in my life, so we won't be going :( And I didn't get to go last time it was in MN either, sigh. At least I got the chance to go when I did. In other happenings for us though, we did finally get Bulldogs hockey tickets!! Next Friday we got a date at the Amsoil and I'm so excited for it! Took Matt long enough..... only the last regular home game of the season. Now he just better hope baby doesn't come before then because this was my only real item on my baby bucketlist and he will face my wrath for a long time if I don't get to go.
I think that's all I got for now. Hopefully there won't be anything too important (at least in a bad way) til our baby is here!
Later!

Way Too Much Change
Well now I finally have updates for you guys. Unfortunately none of them are good.
First, what I think is most important, though I think I'm the only one: Eyeball is still head up and really needs to flip by the 16th or we need to make a decision on whether to try an external version to turn it, which could result in an emergency c-section, or wait and see if it turns on its own and if it doesn't (and the doctor doesn't think it will), have a scheduled c-section. I really, really, really do not want to have a c-section but the version only has like a 50% success rate and I'm not sure it would be worth it if there's a chance of having to have an emergency c-section. I don't think I'd like going into the hospital for that procedure and not knowing if I'll be leaving the hospital with a baby; even if it's only three weeks early. I don't know. Hopefully Eye flips by itself in the next two weeks and I won't have to keep worrying about it.
Next stupid stressful change is that we have to move at the end of April/beginning of May because Matt accepted a job offer at the place where he's working down there right now and will be starting May 1st. I can't say it enough that I hate it in the cities and I think up here is a much better place to raise a child. But I really get very little say in the matter. I know Matt can't stay working painting up here when he may get laid off every winter. It's just stressful because I don't think there's enough time to smoothly or even remotely smoothly plan on having a baby, packing, figuring out what to do with the house we only bought a year and three days ago, and moving with two dogs, a one and a half month old, and probably while Matt is going back and forth from down there where I will be responsible to do everything. Then unpacking and trying to set up the house by myself as well, with a one and a half month old and two dogs that have turned into the worst dogs I've ever known over the last month because of all the changes. And more changes probably won't help. Not to mention just everyday living down there will be stressful by itself.
All I know is I will find a way to go see Tim in July. Alone. So I can regain some sanity.
