i'm going to journal all of this craziness:

april 27- kinda, sorta suspected i was pregnant. my back hurt. boobs hurt differently. friends said i should get a pregnancy test. so i buy it and take it. within 22 seconds, it was a bright, blue positive. holy shnikies...

april 29- boobs hurt. little crampy. first prenatal appt. just had blood drawn and my pelvic/pap/breast exam. NOT FUN!! have appt on may 13th to see how far along i am!! i think right now, i'm 6w5d. so my guess is that by the may 13th, i'll be 8w4d. feel dizzy/lightheaded today. i went off some medicine the second i found out i was pregnant so i'm feeling the withdrawl symptoms for sure!!

may 1- felt pretty decent today. starting to eat everything... b/c hell i'm pregnant. when will ever get to do this?? but still trying to make good choices even if i'm going to eat a lot. the tiredness hit today. oh my gosh, so tired... 8 days till ultrasound!! so excited. already looking at baby names.

may 4- don't know if tired even describes the complete lack of energy and laziness that has engulfed me. i hope to god this doesn't last very long. it's almost ridiculous. boobs still hurting. sometimes feels like someone shoved a knife in them. nausea is pretty much all day. (no puking though) hungry a lot. and still a bit crampy. but not unbearable. really need to eat more healthily. i used to be so healthy. now, it's just i need to have something in my stomach. and it's usually something fattening.

may 9- first ultrasound is at 2 pm today!! pretty excited. my guess is that i'm 7w6d. coworkers think i'm 11w6d. it will be interesting to find out. husband is taking off work early to come with me. it'll be fun to show u/s pictures to the family on mother's day. interested to see how much weight i've gained in 2 weeks. i'm sure a few. cramps have gone away last few days. bbs are just a little tender. feeling pretty good for the most part. just extremely tired. plan on sleeping all weekend!!

may 11- i was SOOOOO off on the due date. i'm due january 3, 09 not december 20, 08. i have another u/s on may 27th. that will give us a more accurate due date. so i'm 6 weeks, not 8. got to hear AND see the heartbeat. that was pretty cool!!

may 23- realized i have written in a bit. well, i'm 8 weeks tomorrow. still nauseous. up every hour at night. tired all day long. i need like a 2 hour nap during the day. greasy food is a bad idea. starting to want to eat fruits and veggies again. still have an aversion to meat. u/s is on tues. can't wait!!

may 28- so i had a 2nd ultrasound yesterday. and it was cool b/c my mom and david both got to be there.

so this time, we saw the heartbeat AND got to see some movement. at this stage, babies arent' moving voluntarily just nerve spasms and whatnot.

then the dr says, 'there's another baby'!! but she called it a "vanishing twin". so at one point, i was probably having fraternal twins. i nearly fell off the table. but the "twin" isn't developed and will not continue to develop.

but the baby # 1 is doing great. and is coming to us january 3, 2008!! as of today i'm 8 weeks and 4 days.
around mid-august we'll find out what we're having.

i was so nauseous for like 3 weeks. but i haven't been feeling pukey since last friday. so hopefully it's gone. but still incredibly tired.

june 2- i spoke way too soon. i'm nauseous again and it's worse then the first 4 weeks. i was nausea-free for 4 days and now it's back. i'm pretty miserable.

Oh! LOL That makes more sense Well, it was totally God that opened that door! Yay for you guys!!!!

Fairs are fun! I picked off of everyone's french fries and curly fries... and one of the cooks gave me free waffle fries which was amazing. But, I woke up at midnight with massive diarrhea! Be careful of that grease! LOL


HaileyC - Monday, 21 July
I didn't know that he wasn't working! I'm so happy that he got the job! That's AWESOME!!! Pass my congrats to him! And that's really good news for you too!! You're so lucky! I have to work 40 hours when the baby is born. There is no way that we can afford to be able to live unless I work 40 hours. Oh well, God has a plan, he knows how it will all work out for us!

I like camping.... as long as there are bathrooms and showers. LOL I don't mind sleeping in a tent, but I HATE being dirty. I need a shower. My husband roughs it.. and he loves it. I can't even try to fathom that while being pregnant! EWWWWWWWWWW

So, while he was gone, I spent ALL WEEKEND with his sister. It was fun, but I really did want a little alone time... and I didn't get much. But I'm happy that she did keep me company. I went to the Orange County Fair TWICE and I talked her and my other sister in law to go to the beach with me... even though it was a little windy and cold... and overcast. But it was still fun! I really REALLY missed my husband though. When I talked to him on the phoen yesterday afternoon (he had no reception where they were camping) I had tears in my eyes because I missed him so much.... Such a loser, I know!


HaileyC - Monday, 21 July
Hey girlie!

I'm glad to hear about David getting a new job! You didn't tell me he was looking!

That really sucks about your car. What kidn of car is it? You're smart for just getting a new one instead of putting all that money towards that one.

Well, Arturo starts his job today! We'll see how it goes! I'm really excited for him. He was off camping all weekend long, I didn't get to see him until last night at 10. He left at 4:30AM on Friday. I missed him so much.... and it doesn't help that I'm super clingy now that I'm pregnant!

Anyway, I have to get back to work now, I'll talk to you soon!


HaileyC - Saturday, 19 July
Hey Girly!!! I'm heading home write now and WANT TO GET OUT!! But I wanted to write you back really quick before I left! Everyone is touching my stomach. I'm one of those people that don't care, so I'm totally fine with it. but I could totally see other peoples points of view... because everybody always wants to touch a pregnant belly!!! I can't wait to see what your belly looks like! STUPID COMPUTER! I'm not wearing regular jeans anymore, those are maternity jeans! WOO HOO!

I'm sorry to hear about your car... what's wrong with it? I remember that the brakes were out... is that it?

My hubby got that toy store job and starts Monday

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND! I'm still praying for you :)


HaileyC - Friday, 18 July
I added an 18 week picture.. I'm trying to get better at taking them every week! I'll probably never get to that point though LOL!


HaileyC - Monday, 14 July
Hey girlie!

For a boy, it'll be Jacob Immanuel. For a girl, probably Chloe Rose. Still a little iffy on the girl name, it may change if we're having a girl.

Sucks to hear that you were at work on Saturday!!! LAME!!!! How was the family though? Did David come back from his camping trip refreshed? My husband is going camping this coming weekend... I'll be all alone!

My belly has really gotten big in the last 2 weeks or so. According to everyone, I really look pregnant now! And I feel it. Sometimes, I can make my belly button stick out. And I used to have a pretty deep belly button. It's the coolest thing! Have you noticed your belly button getting shallower?

This weekend, my band recorded a demo. We were in the studio Friday night and ALL DAY Saturday. It's always so boring to be locked up in the studio, but we got a lot done, so I'm stoked. It's not completely done yet, but when it is (probably in the next week or so) I'll put the songs on the band myspace and give you the link! Super fun stuff


HaileyC - Friday, 11 July
I find out on July 29th at 8:30. It's going so slow!!!

I wish your computer was working too!!!!!!!! But you're still taking pictures though, right?


HaileyC - Friday, 11 July
Why thank you! But my side view isn't that cute I have all of these crazy rolls...


HaileyC - Thursday, 10 July
I'm glad to hear you're praying and that you both agreed to go to marriage counseling. It will get better.

Sorry that you didn't pass your test :( But that's awesome that you get to take the test again!!! I'm sure by then, things will be much more calm, and you can actually study!

That really sucks about the mommy kitty.... I didn't know that they could puke up worms!! That's so weird!

Congrats on the kicks!!!! Isn't it AWESOME!!?? The first time I felt something was at the end of week 14, then the first realy kicks were at 15 weeks Was that your first time? Or how long have you been feeling the baby?

You didn't tell me that the nausea went away, so I'm VERY happy for you. I had bad migraines a couple of weeks ago too... really bad. but it kinda went away for me... for now...

Everything is good for me. I'm finally feeling normal. My tummy is huge... my hubby took pictures of it yesterday, but I hate them. I'll still put them up. I feel so wide and chunky. ugh... whatever

My hubby has a job, he just doesn't know what the position will be. My uncle, cousin, and her hubby, own a small chain of high end toy stores here, and they always wanted to hire my hubby. My husband is a big kid, and when he would go into those toy stores, he freaks out... has to touch everything. So annoying, but cute... so anyway, he met with them on Monday and they want him, but they're still trying to make a position for him. They were supposed to email or call him yesterday explaining his position and pay, but they didn't. My husband isn't worried though, because he knows that they want him. They just have to make room for him. But what he thinks he'll be doing is helping with store operations... like, he'll have a managerial position, but not a store to himself. He'll jump around the 4 stores that they own and help with their operations.... that way my cousins (they run the business, my uncle just helped them invest), can build the company and grow. So he's VERY excited about it. I'm anxious for him to start already and start getting PAID. It's been 3 weeks!!!!!!


jamie - Tuesday, 8 July
Just checkin in to see how your doin.......


HaileyC - Wednesday, 2 July
The baby kicked me REALLY HARD last night... like, really hard. I can't wait till you feel the baby kick and move, it's so cool


HaileyC - Tuesday, 1 July
HI!!!! I'm so happy to hear from you, as usual I can't believe you'll be 14 weeks!! Then you'll officially be in the 2nd trimester. Some books say that 13 weeks is the start, but some say 14 weeks is the start... it's all confusing. I say you're in the 2nd trimester already :)

I just turned 16 weeks today, woo hoo! I'm able to feel the baby now. Not all the time, but every once in a while, it's cool. The only way I can explain it is: little flutters... they're not hard, but they're not gas. It seems like it likes to kick me around the same area on the left, but I don't know if that's normal. Arturo felt it once too, it was awesome! He thought it was the coolest thing. it's actually kicking a little as I write... or at least I think it is

I've been feeling really good, except for yesterday and today. I caught a cold, or have bad allergies. It's annoying. I'm constantly sneezing (and I have to either hold my "area" or cross my legs or else I'll get a little leakage), and my nose is a faucet. Oh, and can't forget about the stupid headache that won't go away! AGHHH!!

Congrats on FINALLY moving in! Painting sucks.... but at least you won't have to do it for a while! WOO HOO! How is everything with you and your hubby, getting better?

My husband is OK, he's so depressed. It's a man thing, he still feels like a loser because he can't provide for his family. He even cried on my shoulder yesterday afternoon, I felt so bad. I was telling him that it wasn't his fault and that God has something better for him and then he was like "you're the only one that makes me feel better", and then he held me and wouldn't let go for a long time... then I was like "let me see your face" and he wouldn't let me... that's when I saw he was crying. It's really heartbreaking to see him cry because he rarely ever cries... EVER!

However, I have some good news... or at least I hope. He got a call from someone he used to work with who told him about a job. He would be a driver for another tire company. The downside is that they probably won't pay him that much AND it's about 30 miles away... in traffic. So we would be in the same problem as we were before... So he's feeling a little iffy with that one. But then, my uncle owns 4 toy stores with my cousin (my cousin and her husband actually run them). A few weeks ago, I spoke to my uncle and they were talking about possibly wanting to hire my hubby. But this was when he still had a job, and they weren't sure. Well, yesterday I called my mom and told her the news. She then called her brother (my uncle) and he spoke with my cousins... he called me last night to talk to Arturo, and I think they may want to hire him to be the store manager of one of their stores. I don't know how much they would pay him, but at least he would get store management experience... and that's AWESOME! So my uncle told him to call my cousin, which he did last night and had to leave a message.... I'm waiting to hear if they call him back. Pray for us, because that seems like it would be great! We've prayed about it, and if it's the right way, God will open the door, if not, he will close it. But at least those two jobs gave us some hope... and a light at the end of the tunnel... He's been applying at a million places on Monster, but hasn't gotten any calls back yet. Monster is crazy... employers get a million resumes (I know, because I found my job on monster, and it was totally the Lord that I got this job)!

Anyway, this is the longest message ever... sorry!!! We're not being affected by the fires because we're in Southern California. At least not yet... we'll probably get a fire here soon, it's hot and dry... it always happens. That's the way it is here.

He just got laid off... He was in the commercial tire business, he managed accounts where they have fleets of trucks (like, usually big trucks) and checked their tires and sold them. he also tried to get new accounts. Well, since gas prices are horrible, nobody has any money for tires. And on top of that, the tires are made out of rubber, which is made out of oil... so everyone's prices are going up (not just his company's). So the company is really slow and had to lay people off. The bosses REALLY didn't want to let him go. He said one of his main bosses was crying really hard. So it's just a bummer.... he feels like a loser. I keep telling him that it's not his fault, he got laid off. If he would have gotten fired, then it would have been his fault! i don't know, he's just so sad

But we know God has something better for him. I mean, that place was in Downtown Los Angeles (which it's NASTY there, ew), and Downtown LA is 50 miles from us.... so he was using LOTS of gas


HaileyC - Wednesday, 25 June
My husband got laid off today... I feel so bad for him. He feels so crappy. Pray for him please


HaileyC - Wednesday, 25 June
You're very welcome! I'm so happy to hear that you guys prayed together That's so sweet And it's great that you got a lot done! WOO HOO!!


HaileyC - Monday, 23 June
How are you feeling this week? you're inching closer and closer to the 2nd trimester! I can't wait until your M/S finally goes away!!!! And then you can go to your bible study's! Woo HOO!!!!!!!!!

How was your weekend? I know you probably can't talk too much, being at work and all, but when you have a chance, tell me what's up!


HaileyC - Thursday, 19 June
Hey girlie!

So... how are the patients today? Anything new with you? I promise, it does get better. I really am starting to feel a little more like my old self again... Except a more hormonal version of my old self

I hope that M/S stops soon!!
