Finally all of us are under one roof! It's nutty and wonderful. If only you could hear the chatter! We made it back to SSI on Father's Day. Jarrett didn't get a fancy dinner, bless his heart, it was Fin's choice Sunday night, but he did have us all at the dinner table(Breaker was present via monitor). It's wonderful. It's awesome not to be eating in the bed too! I'll take take Fin's smacking and veggie refusal any day.
Breaker is adjusting too. Thanks to NICU & ISN he doesn't mind going to sleep with the television on. It's nice for the eleven and two a.m. feedings. He's a smacker too--sucking down his milk and formula! He's almost back to his birth weight.
I've got to run because it's almost feeding time (it comes around every three hours)! There's lots more to share and I can't wait to get it all out.
Jarrett and I offer prayers of thanksgiving constantly. God has been so gracious. Thank you all for being in prayer with us.

Memorial X1 MO
Since we've been in the hospital for one month tomorrow, I thought I would borrow Sonal's genious idea and do a "Month in Review". Her reviews are some of my most favorite of her blogs to read. I'm going to try. . .
Listening to . . . the pros and cons of VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) and repeat C/Section, with the drip, drip of oxygen in the background and an occasional BEEP of the IV pump.
Watching. . . all things TLC, Bravo and E! And of course I never miss my beloved All My Children. I try to catch General Hospital too. I'm making a confession: I LOVE watching my soaps. I feel like such a sap. I do make up for it though. I try to catch Way Too Early with Willy Geist and Morning Joe.
Reading. . .Water for Elephants. I didn't know if it was the one for me, but Ashley Holmes convinced me! I'm slowly getting into it. Folks have brought Jarrett and me the best magazines around too. I should be up-to-date on summer fashion, makeup, hot spots to visit, etc. Just give me a holla if you have any questions:).
Eating. . .Sadexo Room Service, The Green Truck (OMG, y'all gotta try it! All organic and farm raised), a bottle of ketchup a week (that's disgusting, but a pregger's craving), hospital graham crackers and of course my beloved frozen yogurt. "Straw-biddy," as Finley would say, is the flava of the month.
Drinking. . . water, water, water and lactated ringers (in a round about way). I am allowed an occasional Zero. I treasure those moments.
Wearing. . . tank tops in every color and my Calypso St. Barth's wrap from mom and dad. Oh! And my birdcage necklace from Whitter.
Using. . . iPhone and laptop like a crazy person. Angie (Studio 1604) has introduced me to dry shampoo too. I LOVE IT! She sent me TIGI Catwalk. You need to stop by for a bottle of your own. Seriously.
Shopping for. . .little boy clothes! It's a first and I love it. I've been picking up back-to-school clothes for Finley too. Sales do a body good :) Crazy 8s, Zulily, Totsy, Hautelook and Rue La La are my demise.
Lusting after. . .the chance to wear some of my summer clothes and swimsuits.
Laughing at. . . the funny stories about Finley, J's rhyming and sometimes the looks on the med students faces. DEER IN HEADLIGHTS.
Brainstorming. . . on plans for the nursery and Finley's big girl room. Jarrett and I are researching fall concerts too. My fingers are crossed for tickets to Rihanna and/or J.Lo (if she does a tour).
Excited about. . . Breaker's arrival in two weeks!
I hope I haven't bored you guys. I'm not as gifted as Sonal. Check her blog out if you can: Life In Sonal's Shoes. It rocks!
