I have been inspired!

My friend decided to start up a blog, and when I looked at it I remembered I used to have one! Maybe I'll start writing more. Chris says I basically blog on facebook anyway. We shall see...

July - here we come!

So, by the end of this month I'll be full term....WAHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! This little guy is growing like crazy! I believe he's already dropped down lower (I could be wrong, but I heard this can happen 5+ weeks before delivery with your first child). Everybody keeps commenting on how much lower my belly looks and I do feel him a lot lower down (it's kinda crazy, I never thought I'd feel him move that low). I am 32 or 33 weeks this week...they are still having a hard time deciding how far along I am! I would like to go with 33 weeks, please :D.

What's new...hmm, still house hunting. The realtor went out of town for 7 days last week, then she got back in town and we couldn't get in touch with her. FINALLY last night she e-mailed me (after we called several times, she never returned our call) saying she will be out of town again for the next 14 days! We are going to have to find somebody else and I feel awful about that, we just can't afford to not look for a house for 18 days! We don't have time for that. *sigh* I know it'll all work out eventually. I just don't know what to do right now.

Well, that's pretty much all that's been going on. My life is boring, It feels like all I ever do anymore is work, look at houses, and sleep...sad!!

My monthly update

So, I guess I blog monthly now :). Just wanted to give a quick update. We are house hunting, found one we love and are just waiting to make a bid on it, get an inspection and all that jazz. I know if it's God's will it'll work out, if not we'll just keep looking! The pregnancy continues to be hard but I think I'm learning how to deal with it better. I'm still fainting but it's kinda funny now because I feel it coming on, don't fight it anymore go out and wake up. Chris has gotten used to it and doesn't panic or anything, he just tries to wake me up or stays near me. I'm not out long, and I feel pretty icky afterwards but he just helps me get up to walk around. We have learned if I stay sitting down after I've fainted once I will just keep blacking out off and on for a few minutes, if I get up and get my blood moving then it seems to help (I don't know HOW that works but whatever). My doctor wants me to live in compression socks, I've also learned that those don't do anything to prevent me from fainting and they aren't the most comfortable things in the world so I'm going against doctor's orders (I'm bad). I'm back on my morning sickness medicine and while I fought that at first I've come to realize there's no point in fighting it, the baby needs me to eat and it's silly to feel sick ALL the time if there is something that will help me feel better. I love feeling the baby move and am anxious for him to get here (hopefully early but not TOO early, I want him to stay in as long as he needs for his development).

This weekend I'm almost positive I sprained my wrist HAHA. Well, it's my own fault 'cause I was stupid! I know my sister moves furniture around towards the end of her pregnancy (although I thought it was once she was further along then I am), well I take after her! I decided our living room looked ugly and asked Chris to move the sofa's around for me. He said no, he liked it how it was and we're moving soon so there is no point. SO, being the obedient wife that I am, I waited until he was at work on Saturday and moved them :D. I love the living room (he still gets a little irritated every time he walks in the apartment though), but my wrist is killing me! He says he's sorry that it is hurt but hopes I learned my lesson...I DID! Next time I'll just bug him 'til he agrees to move it for me :D (just kidding)!

Long time no...post...

So, it's been over a month since I posted on here, I can't believe so much time has gone by. A lot of stuff has been happening, work is getting worse, I've been having complications, I got to visit my family, and Chris finally felt the little guy move!

I've started fainting, at first I could tell it was coming on and I had a few minutes notice. Now (as in yesterday) I literally had a few seconds notice. I was walking in the apartment when I called Chris, I guess he heard something in my voice because he came pretty quickly. I looked at him and said "I'm going to faint." and I guess down I went. Thankfully he caught me and just set me down on the floor. I don't think I was out for too long, I just get so frustrated with this! ARGH! Well, hopefully it'll get better, not worse :).

The baby is moving a lot more, I LOVE feeling him move. It has to be the best feeling in the world. As hard as this pregnancy has been, I will miss feeling him inside of me. Well, gotta run!

Hmmm

I haven't posted in a while and I can't think of much to say. My baby has been much more active in the past two days. He's moving right now, actually. It seems like he's having a hard time getting comfortable 'cause he's being a wiggle worm, but that's ok 'cause I get to feel him more then :D. I've noticed over the past few days (really staturday, yesterday and today) that I can feel him most in the morning after my shower (between 7:00 - 7:15) in the afternoon (between 12:00 - 2:00, it hasn't stayed the same for the past three days but it is during that time at some point) and then at night between 7:30 and 9:00. I am sooooooooooooooooooooooo glad to start feeling him more consistantly because when I was just feeling the flutters at first I could go a day or two without feeling him at all and that stinks! I just love feeling him move so much :D. I can't wait until Chris gets to feel him move...Chris is sure he'll never feel him. We have one stubborn little boy on our hands, I don't know what we'll do!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a very bad case of the grumps

I am cranky!!! I don't know why, but EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING is irritating me today! I don't know how I'm going to make it through the day without losing it! I'm praying so, so, so hard because it's only God that is keeping my tongue in check right now.

Have you read the book Alexander and The No Good, Very Bad, Terrible, Horrible Day? (I may have gotten those words out of order but you get the main point). Well, I feel like that today. The tax people (who took a MONTH to do our taxes) messed up our bank account information, and now they won't answer the phone. I threw up this morning, I woke up with a headache, my supervisor is nit picking everything and won't stop talking, I dropped a slice of my apple (which I was REALLY looking forward to!!!), the teller (who has been out for two days because of a SUNBURN to his head and neck) is coming back today and I'm already irritated that I'll have to deal with him. LOL I am a GRUMP today!!! I am very much like Alexander today, maybe I'll move to Australia! Mom says everybody has bad days, even in Australia (that's one of my favorite lines in the book :-P).

I'm feeling slightly better after writing this lol, I'm still very cranky though!

I am pout.

Hehe, that's what Chris and I say to each other, not "pouting," it's "pout." We got it from the Left Behind books we read together when we first started dating, it just struck us as funny and it has stuck ever sense. Anywho, I'm pout because my little "Wild Child" has not been wild. I have gone back to feeling the flutters which are great, but I want to feel the baby kick more. I felt a kick last night while I was laying down, it made me jump! Chris thought that was funny, but then he got discouraged when he put his hand on my belly and nope, no more. I think the baby justlikes being stubborn, Chris and I are so it wouldn't be a surprise at all! I just hope the baby isn't half as stubborn and he and I are!!!!!!!!

Well, not much more to update, I'm still feeling a little queasy at times, but much better then the morning sickness I was feeling.

I'm jealous 'cause Tina get's to find out what she's having today!!! Only 11 days left for me, yay!!!!
