So many latest hapenings

I was gearing up to post these pictures and lots more of our new house which has pretty much consumed our time and thoughts for months now. We've been working on it a lot and were just picking paint colors when this happened..




Monday on my way to work I got in a serious car accident. I was going through an intersection on my green light and someone coming from the opposite direction decided to turn on their left red arrow and I didn't see them until it was too late. I slammed on my breaks and closed my eyes upon impact. I opened them and grabbed my face in pain and there was blood everywhere and I am this pregnant right now (35 weeks)...




So I was screaming and crying pretty positive I had ended the baby's life. People helped me out of the car and the paramedics were there to whisk me away in a few minutes. As soon as I got into the ambulence I felt the little man move and they heard his heartbeat so I calmed down like 100% but I was scared I might go into labor. They took me to the hospital and kept me there till 6pm the next day to monitor my placenta in case it tore from the uterus in the first 24 hrs and to give me turbutiline to stop the contractions. While I was there I had a CTscan to see why my jaw hurt so bad and found out it was fractured. Yesterday I went to the oral surgeon for an assessment of what I should do about my jaw and left there with my jaw pretty much sealed shut. Without any warning he put these lovely things on both sides of my mouth....



They are like these braces things that i put these tiny and not stretchy rubber bands on. They're so small you probably can't even tell that that is what is in my hand..



I have to double those rubber bands up on those metal things so pretty much how you see my teeth closed in the above picture is how they will be for weeks. I can barely fit a straw through my teeth so its liquid food for a few weeks. This baby is already so big and needs so much food all day I don't know how this will go. It feels like I had braces put on because of the achiness, but I guess this is all a blessing right? Everyone says the main thing is that me and baby are ok. I know this is true but I am starving and had to miss a week of work and now have no car. I guess I'm just happy that I didn't have to give birth because of all this. P.S. the fractured jaw is from the airbag, those things are crazy! It busted my lips open and bruised up my left arm. But that's actually not that hard to do to my arms if you remember correctly. Maybe one day soon I'll get some before and after pictures up of the house. But for now we are a week behind on getting ready for this baby. Thanks everyone for all your calls and texts and messages in concern. I really am thankful that the baby and I are ok. He's as active/crazy as ever.
