it has been too long!

Well Theresa has now attended 48 births. The clinic has just been getting progressively busier. Her last birth was pretty intense, as they had give the baby chest pumps and oxygen. It was born completely fat. Theresa said it was her most challenging birth. She also had been up all night friday night, then all day saturday for pre-natals, then saturday night this birth. Now she is trying to catch up on sleep and hoping every time the dogs bark it is not another labor. She still loves it so I think that is a good sign!!

As for me and the kids, we are still in school. Ayda didn't want to go to school a few days ago but we finally got her dressed and out the door. I thought she was behind me until I got to the gate. I retraced my steps but no Ayda. I checked a few houses ,called her name several times but still nothing. At this point I thought may be she went out the gate by herself to school thinking I had already left. SO I went to school with Hannah, all the time looking for Ayda. I got to school and still didn't see her. We went back home a different way hoping to see her but nothing. When we got home I checked with Theresa if she had come home but she said no! Now I was getting a little creeped out, so out the door I went again looking in our neighbors houses trying not to look paniced. Shortly after being outside she popped her head out from behind the door. She was hiding there for about 20 minutes, totally quiet! I was relieved and angry!!!
