More Stubborn??
I didn’t think it was possible, but I was wrong. Scratch Jr is officially more stubborn than Miss Scratch. At this time (5 days after her due date), I was in labor with Miss Scratch. I was at the hospital walking the halls, preparing to meet my little lady.This time. Well, nothing yet.
The good news is that Scratch Jr was not born on Valentine’s Day. The bad news is that if he...
Why Yes...
Yes I am still here and still pregnant.
I am now 3 days late. Surprised? I am! Although I guess I shouldn’t be. I really thought Scratch Jr would be early. I even touted Feb 6th or 7th to Scratch. Wow, was I wrong!
Miss Scratch was 5 days late…why would I think Scratch Jr would do anything by follow in his “beag seeser”s (big sister’s) footsteps. Although, I should...
Loss of Control
Surprisingly, this post isn’t about Scratch Jr…although he is still safe and sound in my belly.
On my way home from work yesterday, I called Scratch to let him know I’d left. He had picked up Miss Scratch from daycare and I asked how she was doing. “Good”, he said. “She also learned a new phrase: Oh my God”. “God as in G-O-D”, I asked. Yep....
Just in case you were wondering...
the full moon, 3 walks, and the raspberry leaf tea that I had yesterday did not coax Scratch Jr out. Can you believe his stubbornness?
Unfortunately I wanted to take another 3 walks today, but work got in the way. RUDE! lol. So, I’m hoping for 1 walk this evening.
If you want to get technical, Scratch Jr isn’t due to arrive til Friday so I can’t be too upset he isn’t here...
What's in a Name?
Dominic Jackson
That will be our little man’s name. Ya know…instead of Scratch Jr. I had a slight inkling that he would get made fun of in school if we officially named him Scratch Jr. Just a inkling though. :)
Anyway, it’s the Jewish tradition to name a child after a relative who has passed away. Now Miss Scratch’s first name begins with E…and my great-grandmother...
To Infinity and Beyond
Ok, so now that Scratch Jr’s room is 99% complete I feel proud to show it off. There are only 2 things left to do in it…add the changing pad to the dresser and put the mirror (that’s currently on the dresser) on the wall.
That said, Scratch Jr’s room is a space theme. So, without further adieu…here it is.
Entering the room…

Just Checkin' In
No baby yet. 39 weeks today.
No progress at any of the Dr’s visits. 1-2 cm and 60% effaced since 36 weeks. :(
When I was preggo with Miss Scratch I had more progress than this. What the heck?!?!?
So, my due date is Feb 10th…but I’ve already resigned to that fact that he’s coming Feb 14th. Why, you ask? Well…the 1 day that I didn’t want Miss Scratch to be...
