Pregnancy Bliss


So, yes in fact I am delightfully pregnant, I really enjoy it all. Even though I have had some of the craziest things happen during pregnancy... like the burning mouth syndrome which leaves my tongue on fire, because of a b-12 deficiency and abnormal hormone imbalance. It's funny how my body treats pregnancy as some abnormal thing, but at least it is getting use to it. I get up every 2 hours all night long, but that really just doesn't bother me anymore. I am ready to go back to the dr. and see Aiden again it has been a long time!

I've had a wonderful b-day celebration, Paris Winery (even though I couldn't try any, I still had fun), Worlds biggest fish fry, delicious food outings, and wonderful cards and gifts. I'm truly a lucky lucky gal!

Now commences picture palooza...
This is the beautiful Paris Winery

This is me and Adam at the Paris Winery, fixing to head to the World's Biggest Fish Fry

This is after the wonderful day, Aiden and I had a great day

Soapy Slushy!!!!

So, this is one random blog. I'm very much pregnant, and feeling it. No matter what I love it all. And I don't know why, but I really think I am going in with my birth plan as having Aiden all natural. After today I'm not sure why I would be deciding that, I watched a baby story today in which a woman had such a traumatic delivery, all natural, they had to vaccum the baby out, and she had a 4th degree tear, ouch! My belly is sore and Aiden is having a party in there, hehe. My emotions have been somewhat a lil crazy. My boobs feel much better. They had been really sore, but thanks to Brittany recommending some cream, def. all better now. Yeah, I know a topic that everyone wants to hear about. Umm, oh yeah I just ate my first meal containing meat at home. That is a big accomplishment for me.
I made taco salads and they were delicious.
Adam in an attempt to be absolutely precious, and to win my heart, stopped at 5 points (a gas station) and bought me a delicious cherry fanta slushy, which is my fave....So I took my first huge drink before Adam even gave me the straw, and it was all soap!!!!! WTF?? Then Adam put the straw in and took a big ole sip, w/o realizing, he really about threw up. We aren't sure what would make it be all cherry soap, but that's exactly what it was. And I told Adam to at least call and tell them, because lets be real that is not something you want to be giving your kids.
BTW, I took this pic off of deviant art, whoever made it was a genius, it is so simple yet adorable.
Anyway, since I did not get my slushy, I'm now craving something sweet. I think I'm going to eat an apple and some fruit dip (one of my fave things ever now). Well, I must go be nosey, I do believe I have a new neighbor..moving into Shawn's place.

Trying something new...


Things have just been so great, and had a lot of time. Friday, Adam got everything straightened out and I have a new car (and of course the most amazing husband in the entire world)! Yay!!!!! Its a 2004 Neon, so of course its not brand new, but way new to me and it drives like its brand new.
But I am extremely sad not having the blueberry, everytime I go to my mom and dad's house I just walk out and look at it setting all sad in the garage. We still aren't even sure what we are going to do with it! Either we are going to try and sell it to a junk yard or just piece it out on ebay...either way it is an era ending.
But here is the new car, and it seriously needs a name. I'm not much on Strawberry, or Tomato (suggestion of my mom, I hate Tomatoes) so please look and feel free to make suggestions.









I think its pretty cute, and well I thought something was wrong with it because it drives so nice. There is no shaking or anything!
Sat. was a great day but I was a pig!!! I don't think that anyone could have ate any more than me, but that was seriously the first time that I felt like eating and nothing made me sick! But just so you get the point of the preggers and Aiden taking all my food...

I had a:
100 glasses of water
hawaiian chicken sandwich (lunch)
season fries (lunch)
fried zucchini (snack)
canoli (snack)
one and half drive in cheeseburgers ( supper)
med. butter popcorn (supper split w/ Adam)
lg. cherry coke
and the amazing Graters ice cream....3 different kinds, scoop of each
Nathan was wonderful and brought this all the way from Cincinnati...and brought 3 different flavors, black rasberry chocolate chip (amazing), toffee chip (even more amazing), and cookies and cream (delicious)


















And here is Aiden after eating all of our wonderful ice cream, he was very happy!

Yeah, I know fatty! But hey we went to the dr. today and they said just continue taking my prenatal vitamins and eating like I have because I've only gained back 2 of the 16 lbs I lost. And all of my scary test came back and the baby is just great. So, we are really having a picture perfect pregnancy, which I thank God for every single day. My dad went w/ me and it was really fun...we went looking around at baby stuff afterwards, and my dad keeps trying to buy everything. I've told him multiple times he can't just buy it all, we have a lil more time left. Then we went and had lunch w/ mom. Def. a good morning, but I had to come home and nap before Adam came home to go to the grocery w/ me. I did not sleep well last night, just the typical pee 5 times and drink a couple glasses of water, back ache, position Adam just right so that I can sleep..hehe.
Now after nap, groceries w/ Adam, delicious grilled steaks, we are settting here w/ Shawn. The guys have been watching UFC fights while I do laundry. I do have a wonderful life! But I must go and get some sleep I have to be at work at 6:40 am.

April Showers

It really has been a good week...busy, but all worth it. Tuesday was Adam and mines anniversary, two amazing years. Even though it feels like we have been married the last nine we have been together.
We had our growth and development ultrasound...which didn't leave us with any great pics to post, it left us with a great video, that I can't get out of my head. Watching that ultrasound was one of the most interesting and wonderful things i've ever seen done. They went through and measured all the lil bones in his body, and showed us his brain, and all of his spine and where it was connected. They showed us where the umbilical cord attaches and turned on this thing that showed he was getting accurate blood flow. And of course about 20 other things, that I won't bore everyone with...needless to say it was amazing though! One interesting thing is when measuring everything he was comletely developed to 18 weeks properly, except...his legs, and they measured him almost at 19 weeks, so Aiden is probably going to be tall like his dad.
Of course Aiden was not cooperative, and pretty much acted like a lil spaz the entire ultrasound, leading it to take and hour and thirty mins to get it done.
After that, Adam took me to eat at Red Lobster because I have a weird addiction to shrimp right now...and that was wonderful, but I can tell I have an appetite all of a sudden. I ate like a lil pig, but that's been about the first time since this pregnancy has occured that this has been the case. We then just spent the rest of the evening running around and then of course we came home so I could go to bed at like 8...I hadn't slept since because I worked the night before.

The next day, Adam had took off also, so that we could spend the entire day running around looking for a car...which was very sucessful and if everything works out I should have a car by the end of today! Yay! I will def. have to put pics up. And Nathan is coming home tonight after he gets out of work,(which i'm totally stoked about) and we are spending the weekend watching the puppies at my house, going to get drive in cheeseburgers *YAY* and returning the in-laws truck. It's going to be a wonderful weekend!!!!

Well, I am off...need to get ready I'm meeting Holly for an early lunch while Adam goes and has my new car checked out. Everyone have a Happy Easter!!

Spring has Sprung

Spring is here, and I couldn't be happier. Yes, there has been a lot of rain, but it sure does make up for it when we have all these beautiful days between with the sun shining, and the most perfect temps in the whole world. Not to mention half of the days it rains, it end up with the sun out and feeling wonderful! I love it, and Easter is just around the corner!
Easter eggs are one of my absolute favorite things in the world to do, and these are some beautiful ones. I wish I could make ones that were this good!

So, it has been forever since I've blogged, not even sure why. But here is the quick update on things...

1. Last week it only took 3 days of Adam, my dad, his dad, and his brother working on the blueberry to take the old timing belt off, and get the new one on successfully, just to find out that we really can't save the blueberry. There were other things broke that can't be fixed, and so now R.I.P. Blueberry. It's so sad, but now we are just looking for a dependable used car, and I really do not care what I get, I'm just ready for something.

2. Work has been hectic and crazy, def. kept me on my toes, but I've enjoyed the days i've been there, and really enjoyed my days off. I worked the 23, 24, 25 and now i've been off for 6 and they have been 6 busy but magical days. I'm going back tonight and tomorrow, then off on friday, work sat. sun. and mon. then once again i'm off for another amazing 7 days. So, even though the next few days will be a lil hectic, def. will be worth all of it.

3. I had not been to the dr. since March 9, and finally had a
dr. appt Monday the 30th...that is crazy
..and then she says after the next two weeks she will
give me a big break, so I don't feel like I live there, but I like living there! No, i'll be alright. Adam asked me if he needed to buy me one of those heart monitors so that I can listen to the baby's heartbeat, but in just a couple of weeks I'll be able to hear it with my stethoscope, and i've already been feeling the lil quickening so I think I'll be alright. Either way Aiden and I are doing wonderful.


4. Next week on the 7th is mine and Adam's two year anniversary, and we will be together for 9 all together this summer. I can't really even imagine a time without him. We don't have anything huge planned, but we are going to see Aiden on the 7th, for the first time in 4 weeks and then that week Adam is taking some days off and we will be finalizing getting me a car.

5. I've spent a lot of time with my sister, which I have loved every minute of. (actually i've
spent a lot of time with my family and Adam's family) I guess now that not a lot of friends live close, I really do love spending all of my time w/ Adam's fam or with mine. Anyway here is some adorable pics of my sister, she has the best since of style, and also I got her a twilight bag and the dvd...she was very happy!
