Oliver, You’re Mom Was A Crazy Pregnant Lady!
Oliver was a complete surprise! We had no idea when we made him, so my due date was a little iffy. I think it was supposed to be January 15. I am clueless once again. I do remember being very pregnant, and at one of our last visits when the doctor asked “ so, do you have any questions?” Jon proudly said “ Yes. When is he going to get his super powers ?” I laugh now. I was mortified for some reason back then.
BTW, the doctor didn’t give him an answer.
I remember being sick. I took naps random places. I slept in my car during lunch breaks. I might have even sat down in the far corner of a handicapped bathroom just to close my eyes for a few seconds. I worked up until the last possible minute.
I was emotional and crazy. A mole looked weird on my calf and I decided to go for a mole check just for something to do. They said it was atypical and scheduled me for MOHS surgery. I spent the next few months extremely upset. I used to stare at my arm and laugh thinking that with all these moles and tan skin, that I looked like a chocolate chip cookie…now I would morbidly talk to the moles and ask “ Which one of you f**kers is going to kill me?” I helped Jon with projects around the house. He would ask me to hold the flashlight for him and shine it where he could see what he was working on. He would see the light slowly drift…
