After almost 24 years of life.....

I got my ears pierced. I never wanted to do it before because I'm not big on jewelry, but the last couple months I have been wearing clip-ons almost everyday. I figured if I'm going to do that I might as well do the real thing. It gives me a lot more cute options for earrings (so hard to find cute clip-ons), and its less painful (after a couple hours clip-ons start to hurt real bad). When I was sitting in the chair waiting for them to be done I was really nervous because I thought it was going to hurt really bad. I didn't think it was that bad though. I felt like it was comparable to getting your blood drawn. I love them and happy I finally did it!

Okay now to the real reason I'm posting....

Things I'm feeling this week!
  1. Tired- I think you probably figure, but this is for posterity people.
  2. Heartburn- Okay this has come with a vengeance. I get it all the time for different reasons, like if I sing or drink water, and of course after I eat.
  3. Like I never stop going to the bathroom- Enough said.
  4. Leg pain- I think it must be sciatic pain, because my butt will hurt and then my leg will start to hurt. I'm also still getting random charlie horses in m leg.
  5. Contractions- I have been having them for a while now, but they are definitely coming more often.
  6. Its getting close- I had to go get all of the necessities for baby, because she can come at any time now. I have an internet moms group of women that are all due the same week as me and one baby has been born every day for the last five days. It also hit me today at my doctor appointment when he told me he wants to see me once a week from now on. It is making me so excited! I can't wait until this little girl decides to come.
Like I said we have been busy the last couple days. Monday we went to Denver to take Molly to the airport. We spent the day shopping, mostly for baby stuff. We headed up to Estes park as well. We ended up staying the night in Denver because we wanted to go to more stores. Its hard to fit in all we want to do in one day. It is always nice to get out of Lamar and do something, but I am excited to be home for awhile. I plan on spending some quality time at the pool and getting some sewing projects done. I'm a little sad because our vacation to Chicago got cancelled. John and Mary are having some heath issues and we decided it would be better to stay here and get them sorted out. Life continues to fly by and before I know it my time here in Lamar will be over. NO offense to my in-laws, but I can't wait to get back home and be a little family of three!

Baby Shower


Wow I'm getting this up late, but we have been kinda busy the last few days. Saturday I had my baby shower. It was really nice. A few women from church came out. We had a great lunch and some good laughs. I got some cute stuff too! I really wish I could have had some of my family and friends there, but I still had a good time.

We played this game I have never seen at a baby shower before and it was a lot of fun. You had to pass a pacifier from person to person using a pencil, if you drop it your out, last two standing win! We all got a kick out of it. It was kinda hard because we had such a height difference in the group.

Friday Night Fun Night

Last night I took Bekah, her friends and Tanner out for a night on the town. We went out to Pizza Hut for dinner and let me tell you it was AMAZING!!! I haven't had good pizza for awhile. After stuffing our faces we went bowling. I had a blast and I think the kids had fun too. Bekah was pretty upset because she didn't win either of the games. She is just a little competitive. We had some good laughs, one big one because of my throwing a ball backwards. I have a tendency to do this at least once while bowling even when its on the Kinect. If you ever get to go bowling with me, you have been warned. We are definitely going to have to go again while I'm here and can still move.

32 Weeks

What I'm feeling this week!
  1. Gurglies- They seem to not want to go away. I'm getting quite sick of them seeing as they make me feel sick when I have them.
  2. Big- I had my first experience with some asking if I am having twins. NO, I'M JUST 5'3" AND CAN"T HELP IT IF I DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR A BABY TO GROW UP SO IT GROWS OUT!!!!! Sorry, but people need to think about what they are saying to a hormonal pregnant lady that just wants her drink without being judged.
  3. Excited- I can't believe I'm down in the single digits for my week count down, only 8 more to go!
  4. Anxious- I really can't wait to meet this little girl. She is so real to me and I just want to be able to see her and hold her already.
  5. Like I'm going to be a parent soon- I have decided to fully take advantage of the next 8 weeks and sleep as much as I want to and do things I want to do. Don't mean to be selfish, but I'm going to be giving for the rest of my life.
I had doctors appointment today, and it was very uneventful which is a good thing. It is always nice to get to hear the heartbeat though. Its so reassuring to hear the little "thump, thump, thump". One of the mamas in my online pregnancy group lost her little boy at 31 weeks. It made me so scared to think one day everything can be fine and the next it can all be gone. Everything with me and baby girl are just fine so HAPPY 32 WEEKS DAY TO ME!!!

Evening Swim

Bekah, Molly, Tanner and I went to the pool today after dinner. It was nice and relaxing to go and float for awhile, but once the sun went down it started getting pretty cold. I spent the last hour we were there checking the bathroom for a free shower so I could sit in the warm water. I also felt kinda lonely even though I was surrounded by a ton of people. I'm so used to Dominica where you almost always have some one to talk to. I wanted to leave Bekah and her friends to themselves and Tanner just wanted to go down the slide which I couldn't do because I'm pregnant. We are planning on going again on Thursday if its not to windy, I so hope its not windy!

Picking up Molly

Rebekah has been so excited because her friend Molly from Idaho is coming for two weeks. Yesterday we went to Denver to pick her up. We got a late start so we didn't get to do much of the shopping we wanted to, but we got the things we needed. After picking Molly up we went out to one of my favorite places, Chili's!!!! It was really nice to go to a sit down place and get some good food. To bad I couldn't finish half of it. Oh well left overs for lunch! We got back really late and for the first time I didn't get to talk to Johnny for a whole day. Sad I know, but I was crushed when I got home at midnight and he wasn't on. It was really nice to get out of Lamar for a little while though. I guess I have to take what I can get.
