March 2016

I can't believe this month is almost half over already!  My middle son turned 11 recently.   Yikes did those 11 years go by fast.  I had a terrible high-risk pregnancy with him, but he is such a great kid.  He was born the earliest out of all 4 kids. And I think he will be the tallest kid!   Out of my 3 pregnancies, his was the only epidural that worked properly!  That's why I decided to go ahead and try for a 3rd baby!  Lol!

We are finally going to get to meet my new nephew soon!  I'm so excited!  He is so cute!

Baseball season has just started, so I will be busy at the baseball field all the time.  Dave managed to not be an assistant coach for any of our sons' teams this year (not sure how that happened!), so he can actually sit in the stands with me and be a spectator parent!  :)

The kids are all doing well in school.  Cami likes preschool.  It is so cute to see her making little friends!  What is even cuter is watching her play mommy to her baby dolls!  She is so loving and sweet to them!

Our open adoption is still going pretty well.  Cambria asked me if I was pregnant the other day- I laughed and said no.  (I had a hysterectomy so it is impossible.)   I just ate too many cupcakes!   Anyways Cambria stuck out her tummy and said she had a baby in there like "J"  (her birth mom) and that she was going to give "J" the baby like "J" gave Cambria to us.   I told her she did not have a baby in her tummy and she was too young.   But on a basic level, she understands that she grew in another woman's tummy and that other woman "J" gave Cambria to us to raise.   And how sweet was that of her to say she was going to give "J" a baby just like "J" did for us?  

Cambria's birth mom said that a family member that was upset with her destroyed  her belongings, including all the pictures I had sent of Cambria to her over the years.  I was almost as sad as she was.  I want her to have pictures.  And I spent so much time over the years getting those pictures taken and printed and mailed to her.  I did send her some doubles that I had found around my house.  I didn't have very many doubles of baby pictures though, and I told her I'd look for some and mail them to her.  She can see pictures on Facebook, but it's not the same as having pictures to hold in your hands.

Cambria got to talk to her birth mom on the phone last month.  It wasn't on FaceTime or Skype, so Cambria's attention span wasn't as good not being able to see who she was talking to.  I hope that didn't make her birth mom sad.

Well it's late and the kids go back to school tomorrow after being on spring break this past week, which means an early morning for all of us.

Happy March!
