Wow. that is long. I feel like he's going to be tall o.o
yeah, poor lady. >< that sounds like it was awful and very stressful.
I'm so glad the both of them are okay!

I think she was pretty stressed. Plus she was there by herself most of the time because her husband was at work.
I know! Just imagine if she carried him full term. He would have been so long
Me too! It's still a bit of touch and go since he's still so premature, but the doctors said all of his tests are coming back good and he's functioning on his own which is excellent

yeah, I would be really stressed in that situation. P: poor thing
That great! Hopefully soon they'll be able to take him home! :)

I know! They're so excited :)

How are your drawings coming along?

Oh! I've just been sketching the stuff.
I haven't completed any of them.
I'm kind of waiting until I can get the light box thing so it'll be easier to trace onto thicker paper.

What's a light box? I'm not very good at art stuff :P I would love to be though!!

I know how hard it can be to trace something though. I drew something for a local community contest and it was super hard to trace it afterwards

yeah, I have heavy hands and leave indents in the paper, so I usually have to trace with inkpens.
Plus, it's generally easier since I don't have to do a ton of erasing afterwards.

A light box is what it's called, a light box. you basically put the piece of paper you want on it, then another piece and you can see through the paper and see the lines easier. So you can trace whatever your tracing without having to use thin paper, like vellum.

Ooooh! Ok! I think I've seen those before

Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I had to trace it. There were a lot of creases and everything.

Yeah >__< I need to learn how to have a light touch, but it's hard. I'm VERY heavy handed. I'm heavy with everything. I'm a rough person, even though I don't mean to be.

the one I found is made by crayola and it's a light up tracing pad. So it lights up like a lightbox and works like one. So i pay twenty dollars instead of 40+ for a light box. Cheap and awesome~

That's awesome! You know, kid's stuff can work just as well (sometimes better than) as adult stuff [yes]

Maybe the paper is just too soft [t2h]
Lol [lol]

it's a great alternative! And you're right! People think they need to get the expensive stuff, but sometimes there are things you can use that are cheaper and work a lot better

touphen up, paper! [whip]

I definitely agree!

And yes! We'll send you through boot camp if that's what it takes [illgetu]

How has your weekend been?

don't you dare talk back to us, paper! D:< I will hit you with my ring hand!

it's been relaxing! I was really tired yesterday because I hadn't slept well. Today I feel good though because I slept much better~ Now I will relax allll day xD
how about yours?

That's right! You better listen, or else!

That's good. Ugh my weekend was crazy busy. Yesterday we had to go to that baby shower and stayed there for about two hours, came home to make sure my brother was getting ready, then went to the high school for his graduation.
I'm still tired [zzz]

fire: -huggles- but, now you can relax! \o/
you go tall that stuff done now you can rest and eat pizza or whatever you wanna eat! \o/

[lol] Yes! [boogie] I can sit around and relax now :)

Oooh! Guess what!?! I made the Dean's list for my first year of college!!

I should get some ice cream [ninja]

ohh! awesome! :D congrats! <33

I want some ice cream [eager]

Thank you! I really surprised myself. I've been going through some medical stuff that made me tired and sick a lot, so I really can't believe how well I did!

I ate it with a scoop spoon since we were out of clean spoons xDDD

Aww, I hope you'll feel better! but it is amazing that even when you were sick you did really well! :D
-high fives-

Isn't that the best? You can get more in your mouth that way XD
Also, eating it from the carton so other people (my brothers) won't steal your ice cream [mrgreen]

~high fives back~ I feel a lot better than I had. It was because my blood and iron levels were so low.
My blood has come up a few levels so I have more energy and my iron is slowly coming up as well :) it's going to take a while to get to a 137 from a 5 though. (That's my iron count. It's a 5 and should be a 137)

it is! it's also messy xD
ohh, if I did that my family would kill me xDDD

wow. o.o how did it get that low?
Ew, I bet the vitamins you take are horrid x__x

They're not really sure why it was so low. They put me on a new medicine that helps me keep blood, so that made my blood level improve. As for my iron, they think its because my body can't absorb iron. They wanted to put me on iron pills, but iron makes me sick, so they put me on one of those prenatal vitamins.

That makes sense. I wonder why your body can't absorb it, though?
I hope the vitamins help!

I'm not sure. I don't think they really know either XD
Me too! The last time I went it had come up from a 3 to the 5, so it's slowly but surely coming up

Hopefully they'll figure it out and it won't be anything serious! o.o
that's good! ^^ soon it'll be back up to where it's supposed to be~
