Lou,

That was a wonderful post. Thank you. I have been monumentally busy and have only posted on other's threads for a while.

All,

Well, whaddya know....H came back from his weeklong guy trip and he's been angling for some "glad to see ya sex" but circumstances have intervened. He and baby had a bedtime ritual going and he did it with her every night so when he went away her bedtime schedule go all messed up because I'm not him.

Upon his return, she has really "punished" him for being gone. Won't stay in the bed. Won't go to sleep. Tosses and turns and kicks even in our bed. She also calls for Mommy when he tries to pat her to sleep. It has been horrible. Finally, last night her exhaustion took over and he was able to walk her back to her bed three times until she stayed for the entire night. Whoppeee!!!!!!!! By this point, my exhaustion had taken over and I fell asleep before he even made it back in the bedroom. Not only was I exhausted from baby's nighttime wanderings but I'm preggo again. I have lab tests on Wednesday and Friday to see how things look but my initial numbers were excellent. So, no nookie but I have high hopes for tonight. Of course, he could have woken me up and I would have been happy to oblige but no way was he going to wake me up when he knew how exhuasted I was.


Overally, everything is going well. We will be taking a long weekend trip to see some of H's old college buddies at a State Park somewhere in Ohio. It should be nice. They are all nice people. Unfortunately, I won't be able to use the hot tub.
