Monkey Toe Socks

Life is getting more and more complicated. Its nice knowing that we’re almost “there” but the adventures that get us there are anything but amusing. We had found a really great apartment for the cheapest that I have seen lately. We were willing to downsize and squeeze into a dinky box just to save and for things to be more convenient (trying not to get into to many details) however things kinda fell through and even though I’m at peace with it, its still that feeling of “what do we do now” that I’m loathing.

I had doubts from the beginning but with us being on such a time crunch I figured we just needed to find a place and quick. Last night before I went to be I semi sarcastically said “god just give me a freakin sign, I can’t do this on my own”. Now I’m not big on religion but I do believe in god himself or at least the theory of it all but I’m not one to ask him for help. Last night I woke up from 3 dreams. No this is not a “I had a dream” speech, I was earnestly surprised myself. All the dreams were about us buying a house, that’s all I needed.

So this evening is our third birthing class. We have asked Jenny, our teacher to Doula me as well. So all we need to do now is have a meeting with her so Nathan can meet her. Nathan is VERY much apart of my laboring and birthing process. He doesn’t stand next to the bed and whisper sweet nothings in my ear, not that there is anything wrong with that. With Ridge he was massaging me, at one point for 5 hours non stop. He was standing on the bed massaging and doing acupressure the whole time. It was a sight to see ill tell you that much. The pictures posted above is just a glimpse of what he did for the whole 28 hours, and yes those are monkey toe socks =) So since he is so involved we need to make sure that Jenny and he both feel comfortable working together.

Ill update you on how the class went when I get home.
