can't sleep
so for the past couple days i haven't been able to fall asleep until almost 430 in the morning, which is really annoying, cause like most of you know i LOVE to sleep lol. so this morning since i couldn't sleep i decided to organize all of jaxson's clothes according to size, and put all the onesies and sleepers in piles from newborn, 0 to 3, 3 to 6, and 6 to 9 in piles and stuck them in the bassinent, cause i don't his dresser yet so in the bassinent it stays. and i also organized the clothes in his closet by size to. i guess you could say i am starting to nest. for his room i just have to put his initals up which dustin is going to do today, and i need to get a lamp and a laundry basket and some baskets to put the toys i have started collecting for him, i guess you could say i am a little ocd about making sure i have enough things for him. i still need to get a breast pump for when i go back to work. we found a babysitter for him, so jaxson won't be going to daycare which i am happy about. the lady who will be watching him is the spouse of one of dustin's coworkers. she is nice we have met a couple of times and she has a 2 yr old son, and they just had their second. the only thing is the babysitter is at the other base, which is about a 10 to 15 min driving depending on traffic. which is fine i am going to try and see if i can transfer over to the galley at the other base that way its easier for me to drop and pick jaxson up and if there is a problem i am right there instead of 15 mins away. i feel more comfortable with having jax at a babysitter instead of daycare. i never really liked the idea of putting my kids in daycare. i would rather be the one to watch him, but being in the navy doesn't allow me to do that sadly. but once i get out i hope to be able to and so does dustin. but only time will tell. i think the only things i have left on my list to get for jax is the mattress for the crib, changing pad, sheet for the changing pad, more sheets for the crib, possibly a new mobile, diapers, laundry detergent...mmm that's all i can think of, i just want to be as prepared as possible. i can't believe he will be in here in 8 wks. it's so exciting and scary to think i will have a baby in 8 wks, i have waited so long to be able to have a baby, that's all i have ever wanted. i remember when i was little telling my mom i want to be a mom and that is all. funny story one summer when my cousin tarryn was still living in arizona i went to insitute with her and i was having a conversation with a guy there and he asked me what i would like to do job wise, and i said a mom, and he got a suprised looked on his face. but i was just being honest cause that is the truth. i was talking to dustin last night before he fell alseep and i asked him you know what the best gift you have given me? and he said giving you a baby and i said of course, there is nothing that can top that. man this have become quiet a long post..ooops, but this is what i get for not being able to sleep. so i will close for now, there will be a jaxson update around the 22nd cause that's when i go to the doctor, and keeping my fingers cross the medicne is working and i don't make a third trip to the hospital. thanks for all the prayers and support we appreciate it!!

update
so since i haven't posted for awhile..and i am not sure if anyone is reading my blog..but might as well post something in case there are people who do. so last week went in for a my regular doctor's appointment and my blood pressure was high, that was last tuesday so they sent me to the hopsital to be monitored and to have blood drawn and pee in a cup. test results were normal wasn't throwing protein and my urine, and was not showing any signs of pre e. so they sent me home and told me to come in and have my blood pressure checked. so i went to the doctor yestarday and my blood pressure was 140/100, still high, you would think with being on bed rest that it would go down. so they sent me back to the hospital for more monitoring and testing, test came back as the same from last week. so they let me go home and put me on blood pressure medication, to see that helps. i am hoping it does, cause if it doesn't it's either i get stuck in the hospital until jaxson arrives or jaxson makes a very early apperance, which right now would be 9 wks early, and he doesn't need to come this early. so i am keeping my fingers crossed that this will work. on a lighter note, dustin and i got married, so now when jaxson arrives we will be one big happy family. :)
