Malaya Jamison

Today I am an auntie…..again.

Today my sister had her second daughter.

Today a beautiful baby was born at 3:06pm.

This all started yesterday. My mom and sister called me to let me know that my sister lost her mucus plug. Yeah that sounds gross but that’s how it works.

Then very early this morning about 5:30am, I received a call from my mom saying that my sister has started having contractions. I’m thinking Yaaaa, my sister is now in labor! Then I’m thinking what the hell are contractions and what do they do???

I’ve seen enough movies to assume what the mother is feeling but I have really have no idea. Kinda like how a male will NEVER understand the process and feeling of giving birth.

So today before work I head on over to see my sister in labor on Labor day, how odd. Well I see her in much pain and ask my mom what contractions are and she explains them to me. I’m thinking, I’m watching, I’m thinking, I’m watching…..I don’t know if I can handle having a damn child!!!

Hell yeah I can handle a 10 gauge needle or bar in my nipples and skin nut a fucking kid! That’s another story.

So yeah back to the pain stuff. WOW how can a human handle that crap? I know we’ve been popping out kids for a long time but man don’t you think they would find a little less painless way to give birth. Like my sister, both times she’ opted to give birth at home in the bathtub. I agree with this method and would like to use it but up until that baby slides out, your in tons and tons of pain! Then come to find out you have post contractions and you have more plus more intense ones the more children you have. Just think and I wanted to have twins!! What was I thinking?? I do want at least a boy then maybe, just maybe a girl. If I have to have a girl I want her to be younger so the boy can kinda watch her.

I wont be able to see the new Malaya until tomorrow or possibly even until this weekend. I hear she has a full head of hair. My mom is supposed to send me pics and measurements. All that good stuff.

Ok sooooo. My friend Pam is now gone, back to Denver she went. She’s now enjoying all her old friends and the nice weather. Her parents got a job back in Denver where they are all from. I’m happy for her though, if she has the opportunity to go back to a place she didn’t want to leave from then right on. I always said that I would want to move back to California if I had the chance, but now I’m not so sure. It’s not like how Cali used to be. I don’t visit as often as I wanted to but when I do go back it’s all crap.

Most of my dads family is out there and I love that side of my family greatly. They are the goofiest set of people you’ll meet.

I want to move to Okinawa, Japan. Or even Germany I almost joined the Air Force to work on airplanes just before I turned 18. I had Military Recruiters calling my house when I turned 17. My mom used to get mad about it but I never really talked to them. I scored high on the placement tests so that’s probably why.

I’m glad now that I didn’t join. Many reasons why. One is my father. Another is Amatsu. My family and now the stupid stupid ‘war’ is going on in stupid stupid Iraq.

Well now that I’m full from lunch food and tired I still want to have a boy but I’m not looking forward to the experience so much than I was before hand.
