First Born

This is my family my dog max, my cat jinx, my husband Chad, my daughter Destiny, and my son Ethan. I love them soooo much. We are excited to be adding a new addition to our house. Then there is the new puppy which is the first puppy picture, his name is riley. The others are going to be gone next week how sad. I am getting kind of sick of them taking over my kitchen and spending the whole day mopping. LOL

Well I tried my best to set this page up. My picture looks really distorted. I'm not sure why but it makes my face look wider. Well anyways I'm nine weeks pregnant. I have had all day sickness for like 5 weeks now. It sucks. I didn't have any sickness or discomfort with my first two children (except heartburn with my daughter).At this point I haven't gained weight I think I might have lost a pound or so. I am weighing a pound less recently and have been wearing alot more clothes due to the cold weather. I had an ultra sound done at six weeks and everything seems to be in order.

Well I layed on the couch all day while my husband watched football. I guess that is a good thing about football he doesn't expect me to go anythere with him. My two year old son loves watching it also. My husband made us breakfast, all I could eat was the hash browns. Bland and starchy foods are the only thing that doesn't make me sick.

I have had a bad month. I ran through my yard and stepped on something that broke off in my heel. It got infected well the doctor told me he had to cut it out. He cut an inch into my heel. Then he packed the hole with some medicated gauze string to help draw the rest out. That hurt worse than the thing in my foot. After that I got to take my two kids trick or treating. That was fun hobbling down the streets. I was on antibiotics for the infection that made me really sick. Now because my body is under stress I have a patch of eczema on the back of my knees. It is like poison ivy and is swollen. It is awful. I told my husband that if I started my first pregnancy like this one we would only have one child instead of going on three. I hope things start getting better soon.

I have been feeling great the past few days. My nausousness has subsided for the most part. I get a little nauseated after drinking milk. I have gained alot more energy also. I hit the 10 week mark and it all stopped, how weird. I'm not going to complain though.

11/28/2007

Everything is good. No more nauseousness at all. Holiday season is hear and I am a little worried about putting on the un needed pounds of junk food. I guess I will have to have will power to steer away from the cakes and candies.

Christmas was absolutely exhausting. I was so glad it was over. I just wasn't really in the christmas mood. My two children loved it though. I just felt so tired and overworked that it wasn't fun at all. I have gained a whopping 4 pounds now. It seems to be all in my stomach though. My stomach feels huge.

Everything is going great. Things are back to normal now that the holidays are done and over with. I have to go back to class soon. I will have my bach. in Accounting the end of next school year. I am so tired of school now. It is hard working, going to school and taking care of children. My husband did get a better paying job which has resolved me from the pressures of working until I graduate. So the baby will be one when I return to work. I have also finished all of my main classes and now am working on all of my petty classes that can be done through Independent study which is also a relief now that I will be taking care of 3 children. I am excited because I found out yesterday that I will be having an ultrasound monday morning to find out the sex of the baby. Everyone is telling me it is a girl. So it will be fun to find out. I don't mind either way but I can say little girl clothes are soooo much prettier than boys.

It's a boy. I had my ultrasound today everything was great and healthy. My daughter went with me. She asked several times if it was a boy or girl before the lady started. She was bummed to find out she was having another brother. She then watched the lady take blood and started to cry. "We asked why she was crying and she said now my mommies going to die. You took all her blood." It was cute. We had to explain that it was to see if the baby was healthy

So I feel so incredibly huge. This pregnancy is soo different than my first two. I am use to showing early and it be like a round bump, a very distinguished preggo belly. I don't have a round bump. I have just grown twice as wide a normal and it is my whole stomach. I find it soo weird. I have gained about 6 pounds, and it is all in my stomach. I lay down and feel like someone is crushing me. I do feel blessed about the fact that I still have two low rise pants that I can still squeeze into. I guess because they were loose before and they are stretch jeans. Huray for elastic. I just don't feel like I have the pregnancy look yet and it kind of sucks. I have noticed that the maternity close don't fit right. I went to Macy's and did have better luck there but I only had to drive two hours to get there. Everything has been going good this week. I have had two spells (mid-day) of like pure exhaustion and a little heartburn. Nothing major.

I have been feeling well. Five days ago my dog had puppies. She is a pitbull, which a lot of people are scared of and don't like. She is a big baby. She seems so pitifull now. It is as if the puppies are draining all her energy. She had 13 puppies and so far all of them have made it. I was worried about them because there was so many and she only has 11 nipples. I have been weighing each everyday and they are all gaining wieght. I feel so silly but I have been stressing over these puppies. I think that since I have taken off work to finish my last year of college, I just have too much time on my hands. I have gone through every drawer and closet cleaning them out. I have an A in all my classes because I spend so much time doing the work. I still find myself trying to find stuff to do. Grant it with having two kids they do keep me busy cooking and cleaning up after them. I am hoping for some warmer weather, so I can get outside. It is that time of year that the house starts getting smaller and smaller.

Boy I feel so exhausted. We have been adding a new room on and laying new carpet. It is very exhausting work. I feel like I am not doing much helping becuase I can't lift but I am running around in circles. I guess we didn't have to add the room since we have four rooms and two kids. We were concerned about the room situation because 3 rooms are at one end and the fourth at the other. I have a river about 50 feet out my back door so we decided we didn't want the rooms to be separated. So I guess we will have 4 rooms and an office. It is extremely hard to try and remodel when you have children running around. They want to touch everything, I have ran after them for ever it seems like. I also find it funny that every time you get home from lowe's you find one more thing you should have picked up not matter how long you spend on your list. Everything should be wrapped up in about a week. Then things might get back to normal.

One of the puppies my dog had died. They all seemed healthy and they are a month old. I think that the mother stepped on it. It was sad. We took her and put the puppies in a cage by themselves. They are old enough to be weaned and they all have teeth. I have been sick for about a week now. I spent three days in bed. I also have had to reschedule my last apppointment 2 times because of snow. For some reason the past two wednesdays have brought us enough snow that I couldn't get to the doctors. This sucks because I wanted to get something for my cold. We got our new room finished. Yeah. I have painted the dinning room, halls, mine and my sons bedroom. I washed all the other walls in the house we have replaced alot of the carpet in our house. I am going to be painting the nursery next week after I get the crib so everything can be set up and ready. I decided that I was going to have everything done early while I can still move around than waiting till the last minute. Everything is going well at this point. I sure hope I can make my appointment wednesday.

Well I ended up painting my bathrooms, kitchen, and daughters room the past three days. My mom offered to come this Saturday to help paint and set the nursery up. I am excited. It is full of boxes right at the moment. I went shopping and just stuck everything in their. I bought absolutely everything I could remember to put on a list. Stroller, carseat, vibrating chair, swing, bottles, diaper bag and clothes. The nursery bedding has been bought. It even has matching curtains, pictures, mobile, light switch cover, night light, and rug. I went and bought the pain already. I think that my husband thinks I am crazy. We normally don't even put the baby in its own room till about 4 months. I do have a craddle and bedding for it also. It is being stored till closer to my due date. I don't want that sitting around the bedroom.

Well I haven't updated this or wrote anything in a while. We have our little mans nursery all set up. My husband is suppose to replace the electrical outlets but the outlets have just been sitting there waiting on him. Today I did alot. I mowed the grass. I cleaned the house, did all the laundry, cooked dinner, gave the kids a bath, hell I even gave the dog a bath. I am feeling pretty good. At my doctors appointment on Tuesday I was dialated to 1cm and the doc could feel the babies head. That is exciting. I am ready to see him but I want him to wait till at least 37 weeks because I want him to be full term. I have gained a total of about 22 pounds. Since 30 weeks I have been kind of at a stand still on weight. I have no major pains or problems that I am dealing with. I have been sleeping great. I do get a little heartburn from time to time. I will supposidly be induced between the 28th and the 30th if he hasn't yet shown up so that is exciting. I will have my baby by the end of the month. Yeah
