Welllll

I decided I should post a blog. Because I like reading blogs. I check them everyday. I don't write everyday though. You wouldn't really want me to. They would all be like this one .... pointless.

Don't get me wrong, it's been an interesting day...

I spent a whole hour trying to work with tech support for one of my companies.

I went to the bathroom at least 10 times (so far).

I started a load of laundry.

My husband brought me lemon-berry slush from Sonic (Wasn't that sweet?)

I talked to Krystal for a while. (My favorite part was when she asked Dylan - Didn't I take those away from you? and he so sweetly replied - Yes. So much honesty and zero guilt.)

Unfortunately, I am not witty or deep. So, this is all you get.

And our own little one...

So, there's the baby bump. I am now at 15 1/2 weeks. Things are going really well. I don't crave naps at 10:00 in the morning any more (which is a relief).

This is our ultrasound from 13 weeks. The picture turned out poorly, the real thing was so amazing. We'll have another in about 6 weeks to find out what we're having!

For your viewing pleasure

Just a little peek at my beautiful niece Emery Elyzabeth. She's so lovely! I can't wait to hold her again soon.

2 Years Ago

Too much

Well, I feel like I should do some sort of post. There has been soooo much going on I don't even know where to start. So, here's the short version.

1) We had an awesome time in Ohio that went by way to quickly. I have a total of about 6 pictures and only have those because Josh took them. So, just take my word for it.

2) Promptly after we left the state, Whitney decided to go into labor. Okay, well technically she's been going into labor for the last few months. But ...

3) I have a niece!!!! Emery Elizabeth was born yesterday morning. (And I've yet to see a single picture!)

4) Our house is in chaos. This move thing is dragging on. I'll probably still be unpacking in July. Therefore, expect pictures of the finished product in August. But I do love the new place so it's worth it.

5) I have officially made it to 12 weeks. My first appointment is coming up. I'm really just excited to hear the heartbeat. That other stuff ... not so fun. We're still debating over whether my bump is the baby or just the same padding that's been living there for a while.

We're out of here!

Well, this week has been a whirlwind and it doesn't look like things will be slowing down in the near future. In fact, it's turning into packing mania because WE'RE MOVING! I'm obviously not excited at all. We found a townhouse only a couple of miles away with some extra space. It's also a little bit newer, so hopefully we will be the only ones living in it. (I'm soooo done with the creepy crawlies. Did I mention we found one in our bed last week?)

Anyway, I really feel like God has worked this out. We decided it was a great place after we looked at it, but when we went to fill out the application we found out that they didn't have any empty. They called us back (which is a miracle in itself) that same day to tell us that a deal had fallen through and we could have it if we wanted it - available for immediate occupancy. So, we're starting things rolling this weekend.

We decided to go ahead and pay a little extra just to be able to take things slow and not have to rush it, so we technically have until the end of the month. I really think that will help my stress level over the moving bit. It will be sooo exciting to be settled in.

I told you

The truth is that I do actually do more than sleep. That's the problem really. By the time I do more, I am totally exhausted and lately my dishes have been multiplying in the sink - I swear.

But something pretty funny (and embarrasing) did happen this week. Every now and then when I'm on the road I start to get very sleepy. This happened before baby ever came along, and has definitely been happening more frequently. Sometimes I'll eat a snack or call the fam to wake me back up. Other times, I just decide to take a quick catnap in the parking lot before I can possibly considering driving any more.

This week, I definitely needed a nap. I couldn't even summon the energy to go into the courthouse, so I locked the doors, laid my head on the steering wheel and slept for 5 -10 minutes. I didn't exactly mean to sleep that long, more like close my eyes for a few minutes. But apparently I slept pretty hard.

(At this point, I tried to google a picture of the steering wheel on my car, but surprisingly none to be found - imagine with me...) My steering wheel has a lovely little square in the middle that says pontiac inside. The line that forms the square is very much indented. And the skin of my forehead very much formed itself into that line. (Luckily, I slept high enough that it didn't say pontiac in reverse.) So, I woke up with a bright red, raised line on my head - no where near hidden by the bangs.

It was beautiful. You soooo would have laughed at me. So go ahead - I give you permission now.
