Get me some VACA

So I have decided to take tomorrow off to give myself some time to clean the house & relax (not really, I already have a full day). I am going out of town for my best friend's shower & I am in charge of planning it so stress is a little high, but it should be good times had by all once it happens.

Jerm is heading off to Vegas tomorrow for my best friend's fiance's bachelor party. He is so excited. He hasn't been on a "guys" trip in years. I am nervous at the amount of fun they might have and the price it is going to cost. Oh well I guess.

I am going to Vegas in 3 1/2 weeks for my best friend's bachelorette party, well more like a mini-vacation since none of our friends really wanted to come we are actually having the bachelorette party this weekend kind of. Okay, I am rambling.

So after reading about Jen's Doppler machine, I think I am totally ordering one. Jen will you attach a pic of the one you ordered. I found a couple on Amazon.com but wanted to make sure that they were close to what you have. Jeremy totally thinks it is stupid, but I think that it will really ease my mind & I know all my friends will want to come use it eventually when they are all preggo down the road.

Okay, have a great weekend.

Past 12 weeks & STILL tired

So the 3-month mark did NOT alleviate any tiredness yet. I am exhausted today. I know it is because I have had a really stressful day at work, but it still sucks. I had high hopes to go home & get a lot done & now all I can think about is lying down.

We had a great weekend w/ our families. The weather was almost perfect & I was able to get a little more natural sun since I can't tan.

I really don't have much to say. I will try to post some pics from my 2 week increments showing my baby bump development. Jeremy has been pretty mean about it saying that I am making up that I am showing so finally last night I told him that he was hurting my feelings so I think he will be a bit more sensitive now. He just doesn't see the changes as much as I do or feel them & so it is hard for him to believe, but it would be nice if he were a bit more supportive, but I think he will be now. And I don't want anyone to think that he is not supportive with everything else, b/c he has been nearly wonderful throughout everything, but he just has his moments, but I am sure all hubby's do (I know I have mine).

Anyway have a great night.

Only 200 Days Left!!!

Seems like an eternity away, but I can't wait. My stomach has felt funny today though, my muscles hurt. Like when I was coughing it kind of hurt. Is that normal? I am trying not to psych myself out, but want to make sure I don't need to call the doctor immediately either.

So last night we had a scare with our dog. My BIL calls me yesterday at work and ask me why my dog is at his house. He lives 4-5 blocks away. I first thought he was kidding, and then realized he wasn't & said I don't know. I called Jeremy and he didn't know what was going on. BIL called MIL & FIL to ask them & they didn't bring her there. So I remembered that my neighbor had said he was getting a new roof, so I was thinking that maybe they got sick of her barking at them & let her out of our fence (we have a dog door, so she comes & goes in the backyard as she pleases during the day). I was totally freaked out so I made him keep her there & I picked her up after work. He said she seemed pretty scared when he found her. When I got home I found that the roofers had helped themselves to our backyard, they had come in our yard, laid out a huge tarp, and were throwing all the old shingles in our yard. Our yard right now looks like crap b/c we are doing landscaping, so it wouldn't be that big of deal, had someone asked us. Also our fence is pretty crappy but holds together if you don't mess with it, but since that had been throwing shit at it & replacing the garage roof that the fence leans on, the fence was coming a part. So either Lucy got out on her own through a space in the fence that they created while fucking with it or they let her out. Either way I was pissed. She is teeny, she could have totally been hit by a car, and they are so lucky that she somehow found her way to BIL's house. I think that someone must have recognized her & seen our last name on her tag (which is also BIL's last name) and so they put her in BIL's backyard. I am just so lucky & thankful she is okay. I really don't know what I would do w/o her. I closed the dog door today so she couldn't get out & I am hopefully going to be able to bring her to work tomorrow.

So thanks for letting me vent.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Finally some pics

Here you go. I wanted to take a pic of the hair I cut off too, but I forgot it at home. I will have to add it tomorrow if I remember. Sorry the one of me is so close up, I took it myself.

BTW, this is my 50th post, go me!

Enjoy!

Another Monday

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!
