Good morning wonderful blog readers! And what a glorious day it is...hopefully. It's only 8 am so let us see what the rest of the day brings us.
I finally got to video chat with my best friend Angel last night. Makes me want to go home for a visit so bad. I miss her and my family so much. But I'm crossing my fingers that I either get to go home next year or she gets to come visit me next year. We shall see. Thank goodness for phones, computers and video messaging because otherwise I would probably go insane if I don't get to talk to my Angely Poo! :) I would say more but I think my scrapbook page will say it for me. So here ya go, I'll post more scrapbook pages later. Have a great day!
Just a quick one before I head to bed and hopefully actually get some sleep this time. Like I told my mom earlier on the phone when this child does something bad it's Ronnie's kid not mine. :) At least that's what I learned when I was growing up. Whenever I was in trouble my mom's favorite line was "Paul! Deal with YOUR child before I scream". Always worked too. Poor dad!
Well "Ronnie's child" decided to let me know that him/her was in my tummy for sure by rolling, kicking and jabbing my in all sorts of places all nice. Keeping me up till 3 am. Then when I finally got some sleep I get woken up by Ronnie getting ready for work. And once again I can't sleep till it's almost 9am. And then up for the day at 1pm. My sleeping schedule is out of whack it's not even funny! I go back to work in a little over a week and really need to get some decent sleep before then.
Good news is I am not at all disappointed about my baby moving all night. Actually I sat up and started crying because I was so happy to feel the crazy weird feeling I had going on in there. Made me smile and excited even more about the fact that I am having a baby. Our first wonderful bundle of joy! Ronnie even laid on my stomach and was talking to the munchkin today about how ecstatic he is to finally meet him/her.
Next step, finding out the gender. I'm getting pretty antsy about it too. Didn't help that I got the reminder call about my appointment on Tuesday at 1pm. Woo hoo! Four more days!
Alright time for this one to try and attempt to sleep. Crossing fingers that I can manage it this time and hopefully munchkin will sleep too. One can only hope :) Have a fantastic night all!
I woke up in a fantastic mood today. Must've woke up on the right side of the bed or something like that. Or maybe its because things are finally looking up. :)
One of the biggest problems now a days in this society is money issues. Not being able to do anything because you had to pay so much in bills or in my case get a new place to live. Living from paycheck to paycheck sucks and not being able to do anything sucks even more. Stuck watching t.v all day or sitting at a computer all day because there is nothing good on the t.v is even worse. Granted I will probably still be doing these things but with a little more ease of the mind. I have been stressed out just due to the fact that I really can't wait to get back to work so I can help with the money situation. But today things have finally started looking up, I've always told myself things will be okay and things will start looking up soon. But unfortunately didn't know how soon. Well things are great today! I woke up smiling (still slept in though) and am not angry about one thing at all.
I scrap-booked a few pages this morning. Really, really need to get out and take some more pictures. Using older ones gets kind of boring. Luckily 4th of July is coming up next week and my camera will be all set in my hand the entire time. Woo hoo! What is everyone's plans for the holiday? Mine? Well the way things are looking up, my husband and I plan on driving down to Goldsboro, North Carolina to spend it with his dad and family. I'm excited, haven't had a good 4th of July in awhile. Lets blow things up!!!!
Hope you like, worked pretty hard on them. And put a lot of thought and feeling into them. Especially the first and last one. Despite our different opinions Bee I will always love you and I will always be here for you. I may not agree with half the stuff you do, just like you don't always agree with mine, but you are my baby sister and my best friend.
I haven't really been in the blogging mood. A lot has been on my mind which is what I have been trying to avoid. Stress, stress and more stress. But when I do blog and scrapbook it all goes away. I really need to go back to work so that way I have more to do than just sitting at a computer or laying around the apartment. I still haven't fully adapted to this area yet probably just due to the fact that I don't have a car to get anywhere at the moment. But also because I have no one here to do anything with. It's even harder when Ronnie barely has any time off. He has had one day off in the past 2 weeks. So when he is home he's too tired to do anything. It's tough but I knew what life I was getting into. I dealt with my dad being gone all the time and so I'm used to it. It just makes it harder when you don't have any friends here. And that's why I really need to get into crafts and what not to keep myself busy. When your poor though it's kind of hard to do stuff like that. So I just stick to my computer and scrapbook till I go back to work and make extra money for us so I can do fun stuff like that. Well here is my last page for the night. I will be making more tomorrow. Have a great night all!
So after it being in a box for about a week, Ronnie and I finally put baby's crib together today. I'm loving the color and really can't wait till I can start putting some decor in baby's room. Here is the finished project:
And one week today and I will be able to finally tell everyone what I will be having. Majority say boy, few say girl. But the only true way to tell is by the handy dandy ultra sound. Patience sucks but either way as long as my baby is healthy I don't care what I'm having. We shall see everyone!
I've been pregnant for a little over 16 weeks now. It's been an up and down roller coaster for me and some may think I complain too much or put it out there that I hate it (Mom, hehe just kidding). But here is where I clear it all up for you.
If I remember correctly I found out on March 26th. It was the weirdest thing too. It was around 5pm that I woke up from having a dream about having a baby. I thought it was strange and decided that it wouldn't hurt to check with the last test I had. I just had this weird feeling...10 minutes later I went back to check. First the shaking came, then the crying, then the dialing of the phone trying to get of anyone that would pick up. I was shocked because I didn't really think that those two pink lines would really show up. Was I disappointed? Definitely not at all. I am 23 years old and have always wanted to be a mom and have that special someone be the dad. To have a family has been lifelong dream.
Now I was definitely one of the lucky women to not get morning sickness. Not once did I have to run quickly to the bathroom in time. I did however get very nauseous a lot and felt like I was going to let everything come and honestly after how many times I felt sick I really wish it did. I would lay up late at night crying because I was so emotional and felt sick to my stomach. But that finally has passed, thank goodness.
Now one thing that has drove my husband nuts out of the whole pregnancy is my hormones. You think I had mood swings before, try again. I feel bad for him a lot because he tries so hard to make me happy but there are just times when I just want to be left alone, or should I say a lot of times. Don't get me wrong I love my husband dearly, but I get to that angry point very quickly now a days. Like yesterday I was in such a terrible mood but today I am in a fantastic mood. He always wants to cuddle with me and I don't. I'm seriously not doing it on purpose. I just want to be left alone and a lot of times I take it out on him. In his owns words "I can't wait till you are done being pregnant".
And honestly I can't wait too. I'm exhausted all the time, my body aches and I'm tired of lashing out at people all the time. I guess its also been hard because I'm in a new area and trying to adapt while being pregnant and crabby. But I will inform all of you I wouldn't change this for anything. I am happy to be creating this being inside of me. I am excited to become a mom finally and I'm very happy having my husband by my side through it all. December can't come fast enough! Have a great night everyone. :)
I know I don't talk to you as much as I do with mom. But I wanted to let you know that I love you very much and miss you just the same. It was hard to leave you too and it's still hard to think about not living in the same state as you and mom. You're my daddy and you will always be my daddy! You have helped me in so many situations that meant a lot to me even if you didn't want to. But I now know today that no matter what you will always be there for me. I may not have thought you were but after finally waking up I look back and realize that I wouldn't have made it to where I am today without you and mom. I love you so much and really wish I could see you guys soon. I made a page for you and I hope you like it. Have a great day and take care of mom like you always do! ❦
Love forever and always,
❦ Your Peanut ❦
