39 weeks!
I'm praying that everything will go smoothly & without incident. We were so blessed & lucky with Mr. Riley - I hope everything is just as great this time around. I do know that there is some risk of hemorrhage due to the pregnancies being so close together. The previous incision might have not had proper time to heal & there is a chance of excessive blood loss. I've been pretty dang lucky thus far with no complications, so let's hope we continue that trend. 
We are all very excited about our little one's arrival. Life will be different for all of us & we can't wait to get the show on the road. I cannot express how much I can't wait to not be pregnant anymore, lol. I've think I've done pretty well for being told after Robert was born that I probably won't ever conceive again. I feel overjoyed & fortunate to be able to share the joys of parenthood with David. I'm proud to be his wife & the mother of his monster children.
We've all come so far as a family. Our journey thus far has not been without it's trials & tribulations - & we are all stronger for them. Robert is doing better in school & his therapist has given us some ideas on how to gain some better behavior in school. He had his final tutoring session & gained half a year's improvement in a rather short amount of time. The tutoring director said that he didn't think Robert needed any more tutoring as he's a bright boy...he just needs to focus & apply himself. So, we all are going to continue to work together & do what's best for him. He's the best firstborn son & big brother anyone could ever ask for!
Riley is growing, growing, & growing! I think he knows that something's about to happen. His first birthday is almost upon us, too. So much is going on & we have so much to look forward too with that stinky little boy. It's hard to imagine having another baby - I'm so used to just having him. He's so full of personality & life - he's definitely like his daddy - a natural center of attention!
So, here I am...sitting here at approx. 12:30am on Feb. 9th - unable to sleep. That's partly due to pregnancy-induced digestive issues (ugh!) & excitement. I can't believe the time is almost here. I won't say it felt like it's gone by quickly...because I surely felt each & every discomfort of this pregnancy, lol. I really can't wait to be done. If I ever get baby fever again...I think I'll just smack myself in the head!
I'm kidding...it's a wonderful privilege to be "with child" - but one that I'm over, lmao. I'm ready to have my body back to myself & raise these kids! Thanks for reading along & keeping conversant with the latest in the Touchton Chronicles! Your thoughts/prayers/wishes are always appreciated.
Over & out.
