Well once again, I was a bad blogger last week. Sorry for not updating. I guess I was busy, and I have been so tired. I was trying to take a couple pics today for you guys & my camera battery died, so I will charge it tonight & post them tomorrow. I want to show you my ring AND I cut off ALL of my hair. I am going to donate it to locks of love so now I have short hair. I like though.
How I felt in Week 10:
Physically:
1. TIRED, I don't feel like doing ANYTHING. Work is the worst, b/c I just want to nap.
2. My boobs hurt SO bad! Hugs are the worst.
Mentally:
1. Alot better since my appointment last week. I am still nervous, and kind of freaked that I have to wait so long until my next appointment, but starting to relax.
So other than that, have a great Monday. I am heading out of here.

Exhausted
So I am completely exhausted today. Last night I had so much energy I went to the grocery store, went home, did laundry, cooked dinner, cleaned the house, etc. And today all I want to do is sleep. I have been struggling to get through the day & I have to stay late, hopefully I'll get out of here by 8pm, but not too sure.
I am getting ready to do some training and the group that I am training can be a bit intimidating, so this could be interesting. Hopefully they bare with me, and all goes well.
I forgot to mention that Jeremy bought be this beautiful gem stone ring for Mother's Day. I don't know if any of you will recognize the commercial, but I think it is a Mother's Day commercial for a Jewelry Store. There is a couple (50's probably) driving home I think after a nice night out and they were stopped at a stoplight. The husband reaches to hold the wife's hand & puts something in it. She opens her hand to find a piece of jewelry. Anyway, I told Jeremy I wanted him to do that for me someday.
So as I am half asleep on Sunday (he is driving) he grabs my hand & all the sudden I feel something. I was so confused b/c I was sleepy that I was like "what is this?" I then saw the price tag & said, "did you pay that much?" As you can imagine, this wasn't the reaction he was wanting from me & was a little disappointed. Once I really woke up, I let him know how much I appreciated it & was glad that he remembered. So anyway, it is a really pretty blue ring, I will try to take a pic & attach it in the next couple days.
Have a great night.

Baby is doing GREAT!
So Doodle is growing great & doing well in the womb. He/She is 1 1/2 inches long with a heartrate of 176. They pushed up the due date a day, so now I am 10 weeks & 1 day today!!! I feel so much better today b/c I am not as stessed. So my next appointment isn't until June 10th, Yikes!!! That wait is going to really suck. Well thanks so much for all of you that have been thinking about me.
On last thing, my aunt just found out she has cancer again (third time). Please keep her in your thoughts & prayers.
Have a great day!

We're Back
So sorry for not posting last week. We were in Texas, and I just never really found a free moment to sneak away to post.
We had a great week, ALOT of driving, but it was so much fun. We were able to spend time w/ some of Jeremy's relatives in Houston and then were off to Port Aransas (outside of Corpus Christi) for my friend's wedding. Both events were such a blast. I will try to post a couple pics from the wedding tomorrow or at least this week sometime.
So lately all I can think about is the little baby growing inside of me and hoping that all is okay. As my doctor's appointment tomorrow has inched closer I think I have become more and more scared and nervous. I am trying to remain positive and tell myself everything is going to be just fine, but it is so hard not to guard my heart just in case. I don't want to think negatively, but sometimes it is hard. I am praying so hard that everything tomorrow goes well and that the baby is doing fine in my tummy, so please pray a little for me too.
How I felt in week 9:
Physically:
1. I am still peeing constantly. We had to stop about every hour to hour and a half so I could pee. And even at stopping that many times, I had to start holding it after about a half hour after stops. I just couldn't pee enough. And it isn't like I always have so much to unload, sometimes it is just a couple drops, but it feels as if I am about to let out a downpour each time. I told someone yesterday it is almost like having a bladder infection with feeling like you need to pee constantly, but without the pain, which is a bonus I guess.
2. As of Saturday, I could tell that my nipples are bigger. Silly I know, but it is something that I have been looking for b/c the books said it would happen and it hadn't yet. I got out of the shower and was like "holy shit." I showed Jeremy b/c I was so excited and then he laughed. I even pulled up my shirt in the gas station bathroom yesterday just to get a second peek, they didn't seem as big yesterday, but hopefully they are.
3. I haven't really been sick at all. I think in the past week the only time I feel sick is when I have taken the vitamins, and that only lasts for a couple minutes.
4. I am constantly hungry!!! I do feel like I get full a lot faster though. Before I would finish the plate & stuff my face, but now it seems like I can only eat about half of what is on my plate.
5. Haven't really grow at all. I think in the past couple months I packed on a couple pounds, but I don't feel like I have got too much bigger at all. I want to get bigger so I feel more pregnant!
6. Yesterday & today I have had minor cramps. They haven't been frequent or painful, but every once in a while I feel a little cramp come & go & it makes me a bit nervous.
Mentally:
1. Not really good. I think about the pregnancy 85% of the day & am praying that everything is okay most of that time. I am just so hoping tomorrow goes well, and I am able to relax a little more. I also really hope I like the OB tomorrow & then I will cancel my other OB appointment.
So I am asking all of you that have kids (Martha) or that are pregnant, does this all seem normal. I know all pregnancies are different, but I need some input on what I have been feeling.
So sorry again for the bag posting this past week, but I hope I didn't lose anyone. Have a great day.

Happy Cinco De Mayo!!!
Happy Cinco everyone! Hope you are all having a great day & had a great weekend, I am/had both!!!
So everything went well w/ telling family & friends this weekend. Jerm's fam was SO excited Friday night. Saturday w/ his other side of the family was a bit awkward b/c of his cousin, but it went pretty well. Saturday night was fun. Jeremy was embarrassed about having to wear the shirt, but I think he was just trying to be cool. I think he'll like the shirt later on. I attached the pics of us in our shirts.
We are going out of town for a few days to visit family & for a wedding. Lucy can't come w/ us & so Jeremy's parents had to take her home last night. I was so sad. I think I was just exhausted by my EXTREMELY busy weekend, that I was an emotional wreck. But after she left I cried & then I cried through Extreme Home Makeover. Rough night. I just really miss my pup & sad I won't see her for a bit; I'll get over it though.
Okay, well not much more to say, so have a great day!

Here We Go
In about 2 hours Jeremy's whole family will know we are pregnant & I get getting really nervous. It is so real. Before, the only people that new we were pregnant were the ones that new we had miscarried before, and if we would miscarry again those would be who we'd tell. Well now the world is about to find out our exciting news, and even though I am extremely thrilled to share my secret & am a bit nervous about everyone knowing. I am thinking positive thoughts lately and really do believe that I will be coming home with a baby in December, whereas before, I started out sentences with, "if this works out then..." I have faith, but that doesn't mean that I am still scared.
I was talking with Jeremy last night about god parents for a baby. We had always said in the past it would be easiest to have twins first b/c then we could have his brother & girlfriend for one & my sister & brother-in-law for the other. Well life has a way of having it's own plan, and so we are going to be stuck choosing. I know we are a long way from needing to know, but we (me) are the type of people that like to figure everything out ahead of time. I came up with what I thought was a great plan, if it were a boy (like he thinks it is) we would have his brother & his girlfriend as the godparents & if it is a girl (like I think it is) we would have my sister & her hubby. I thought it was a really fair plan & I really don't want to have to split anybody up. Jeremy & I are the godparents for two of our nieces & I love the fact that we got to do it together. Jeremy didn't like my idea. He said that he can't imagine having to tell his only brother that he isn't the godfather of his first child. I am not trying to be rude (babe if you read this, sorry, love ya), but are you serious. Life isn't fair, as we all have experienced, and I am not saying that his brother won't ever be the godfather of any of our children. Whichever isn't chosen would be chosen for the next child, I am just trying to be fair, and making the decision easy on us & allowing no one to get their feelings hurt. With my idea, it is up to God, who will be the godparents depending on whether he blesses us with a girl or boy. With Jeremy's way he just wants to give it to his brother w/o thinking about anything else. (sorry again babe, but just stating how I feel) So I guess, any of you that have had children & have had godparents for them, how did you choose???
Okay, have a GREAT weekend, I can't wait to post the pics on Monday!!!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOO ready for the weekend!
Well I am getting very antsy for this weekend b/c of all our big plans. I can't remember if I told you all earlier, but I bought Jeremy, Lucy (our pup) & me all t-shirts to wear to our party Saturday night where we are telling our friends. Jeremy's says, "He shoots.. He scores!" Lucy's says "I'm the big sister." And mine says, "I'm gonna be a momma." I was so excited when I came home yesterday & they were outside my door. I already tried Lucy's on her & she looks so cute!!! I will post pics up of us wearing our shirts on Monday. I can't wait.
Random question, yesterday my pee was like fluorescent yellow, is that normal???
Yesterday I was able to get a lot around the house done again, but after I ate dinner I felt miserable. I don't think my food digested until well after midnight, and so I just felt gross. I feel so bad b/c all Jeremy wants to do is have sex, and I just have been so darn uncomfortable that that is the last thing I want to do. So along with physically feeling like crap, I mentally feel like crap b/c I feel like I am being a bad wife. I know he kind of understands, but that doesn't help with his hormones. I think I am going to just have to suck it up, but he always hates when he knows I really don't want to do it & I only do it for his sake. It is a lose-lose situation for all.
I attached a couple pics from the Bon Jovi concert last week. Enjoy. Have a good night, I think I will go to Costco tonight to get some groceries for my party:)
