I guess I should update. :)

 Sorry that I haven't updated in a while but I will try to give a rundown of what has been going on with us.

I am just entering week 14 of my pregnancy and am really hoping that my symptoms go away soon. It has been a not so fun past month and a half (or so) but hopefully I can begin to truly enjoy my pregnancy without having to put up with all these bothersome side effects.

I have been nauseated since I was about 5 1/2 weeks pregnant but it didn't get really bad until I was 6 weeks pregnant and then it happened all the time morning, afternoon, evening, middle of the night, what fun!! even though I felt sick I didn't have any tossing of my food though until sometime around christmas. It was fine with me though because both times it happened I felt better for a little while afterwards. But then the week after christmas I got the flu and it was hard. I was nauseated from the flu and didn't want to eat because of that, but I was nauseated from pregnancy and wanted to eat because of that. After the flu went away my morning sickness was WAY worse. I now can't stand the smell and taste of a lot of foods, I am ready to be done with this part!! :)

The other things that have happened in our lives is that Court is back to working at the gear shop I am not sure for how long but at least it is a job!!!

I had my first doctor's appointment on Thursday but it was boring as it was just with the nurse. :) I had to go get a blood draw afterwards so my mom came with me (THANKS MOM!) and did a great job of distracting me! The lab guy was really good and did it way faster then I would have though possible. My first appointment with the doctor will be Monday and I am super excited! There will be the not so fun parts of it, physical and such, but I think we get to hear the heartbeat and it will be fun to talk with her and see if we can do a water birth or not.

I ended up losing weight instead of gaining during the first trimester which is good since sugary snacks seem to be the best thing at helping me keep my food down. :)

In other news our friends, Micheal and Marianne moved from Bothell and now live only two minutes away from us!!! Which means we have spent A LOT of time over at their house!! :) What fun!!

Anyways, I can't think of anything else that has been going on...but if I do I will try to sit down and update again!

Feel free to leave comments!! :)  

"Not Me" Monday

So there is a little thing that some bloggers out there do called "not me!" Monday. And this week I am going to attempt it as well! As the blogger who started it states "Not Me! Monday was born out of my desire to admit some of my imperfections and reveal a few moments I'd rather forget. You may find it therapeutic to join in and do the same thing!"  Hopefully it is theraputic!!!

  Last week it was not me that took out the last roll of toilet paper and then forgot to follow through on the mental note I had "wrote" in my head. Nope it definitely was not me!! And even if it was I would NOT have then used the last of the toilet paper roll and placed a kleenex box by the toilet. And I did not forget to buy toilet paper the next day. Not me!! I did not instruct my husband to flush often because I was worried the kleenex's would clog the toilet. NOT ME!!!!

  It was not me that bought vegetables for soup and accidently purchased parsley instead of cilantro. And it was not me who even looked at the reciept and thought the fact that it said parsley instead of cilantro was just the cashiers mistake not mine. It was not me who chopped up some parsley and added it to soup...not even realizing it was parsley until realizing it did not smell like cilantro. Nope not me!! I would never make a cooking mistake such as that.  :p 

:) Goofy Me!!!!

Is it spring yet???

Today I went to work, like I always do on a Monday, and while I was working on tidying up the closet  (since the kids and mum were still sleeping) the father came out and asked why I was there. I was very suprised...I mean it was Monday(!) so I asked what he meant and found out it was a holiday!!! Oh my! I was so embarrassed!!! :)

It was a beautiful gorgeous day today...sprinkles in the morning, and then amazing sunshine!!  It really made me want SPRING to come. :) Therefore the page change.

Hope you all had a wonderful monday!!!

You really shouldn't annoy a pregnant woman....

but Doritos did it anyways.

How you ask? Well yesterday, in responce to a preggo craving I bought a bag of chips. It was a hard decision but I decided to go with a bag that had two flavors rather then just one. The flavors were pizza cravers and ranch. Now when I bought them the ranch ones were the ones I was craving but I thought I would also enjoy the others...turns out they aren't my favourite (to much seasoning). BUT THEY ARE THE ONES THAT ARE MOST PREVALANT!!! Now if you put two flavors in a bag...SHOULDN'T YOU PUT AN EVEN AMOUNT OF EACH!

Maybe they need a pregnant woman in their factory sorting their chips...maybe one in the nesting phase.
Or wait...maybe then all the chips would be eaten instead of sorted...hmmm...dilemma.

GRRR. Doritos.....feel my wrath. Maybe I should send them a little package....I have a lot of bags of a special homemade substance...hmmm. Good idea....wait, Court don't take the garbage out....not yet. ;)

being pregnant means...

Being pregnant means eating stale saltines at 4 in the morning in the hopes that your stomach will settle down so you can sleep.

Being pregnant means always having something handy in case you need to do what pregnant women (and bulimics) do best. Even if it means you walk around with a trash bag in your stylish (NEW) purse.

Being pregnant means freaking out when you get sick and have a fever. Especially when you haven't seen a doctor yet.

Being pregnant means acting psycho...knowing you're acting psycho but still letting the (far more powerful) pregnant side rule.
