Only 4 Weeks to go!!!!


Well I got a haircut yesterday so I thought I would update my picture because I look like I just got out of bed in the last one. This week we are starting our weekly appoinments!!! We are getting so close. Everyone needs to enter their guess on the baby, the link is on the right side of the blog. I am interested to see when everyone thinks the baby will arrive. Last night we ventured to Emily and Jeff's house with our Wii. Andrea and Linda M. came over and I think we all had a good time!!!

35 Weeks!!!


Well it is Golden Globe's night!!! Everyone knows I am a huge celebrity freak and love watching all the awards shows to see what everyone is wearing. Sooo I am upstairs watching the pre-show and Brian is downstairs watching football until the show starts then I will move downstairs to the big screen. We finally got our computer back this week, then had a nasty virus and Brian had to overhaul the computer. Brian and I cannot believe we only have 5 weeks left!!! This weekend we cleaned the house like crazy!!! I think that I am offcially in the nesting phase of pregnancy!!! I go to the doctor on Thursday, then start my weekly appointments!!! At the last appointment they wanted me to do a kick count after breakfast and supper. I am suppose to count three kicks in an hour, the doctor says it helps prevent stillbirths. Well our lovely baby takes about 5 minutes to kick me 50 times, I love feeling the movements but man does it hurt!!!! Well the show is about to start and I need to move downstairs!!!!

Merry Christmas!!!!

Brian and I would love to wish everyone a Merry and Safe Christmas!!!! I haven't been on for awhile because I don't have a computer and still don't. Thank goodness mom is letting me borrow hers for a little while. We only have 7 weeks left and are counting down the weeks!!! I go to the Dr on Monday and will start our 2 week appointments! I took and passed my glucose test, which was very exciting. Last Saturday we attended our childbirth preparation class and learned a lot, Brian even enjoyed it. I feel a lot more prepared for labor.

28 Weeks!!


Holy Cow I am now into the 3rd trimester with only 12 weeks left!!! I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!!! Brian and I will be leaving tomorrow after work for the long trip to South Dakota and will return Sunday. Thank goodness mom and dad are willing to babysit the animals while we are gone, Tobie hates going out there b/c he gets banned to the basement and Dakota absolutely loves hanging out at the farm and getting to run free. Also tomorrow is our 3rd Anniversary!!! I am hoping I can convince him to stop and eat a nice supper along the way instead of the usual McDonalds!!!

Time To Catch You Up!!

I have been without internet since Friday and it has about killed me, you never realize how much you use something until it is gone. Brian and I have been busy this last week with a vacation, home remodeling, and cat issues.

Vacation- We went with mom, dad, Emily, Jeff, and the boys to Branson for a funfilled weekend. It was all going great until we get to the hotel and find out that Colby had thrown up. Well the last thing that he ate was a cookie I had made so of course that is what made him sick, not the powdered donut, pop tart, pringles, string cheese or Dr. Pepper that had accompanied the cookie. Colby will probably not ever eat another one of those "Cookies that made him sick". Once we got settled in the girls went on a quick shopping trip, then off to Silver Dollar City. Sunday we headed back home with a stop at Bass Pro Shop.

Home Remodeling- Brian has put up the trim in the baby's room so now I need to get a rocking chair and the room is finished and just waiting for the baby to come home!!

Cat Issues- Andrea I am with you, it would be nice to add Tobie to our Blue Cross and Shield plan. Last week Tobie was sneezing quite a bit and I mentioned to Brian I thought he had a cold, well Thursday his left eye was watering, though it got better on Friday. Sunday when we returned home his eye had gotten worse, so first thing Monday morning I called and made him an appointment for the vet. Brian being the good husband he is took Tobie to the vet for me since I couldn't get off of work. Come to find out he has an eye infection from the cold he had and we also learned that he has cataracts. Did you know cats had cataracts??? I had no clue, and Brian insist that it is a waste of money to fix them. As of tonight his eye is better with the medicine and Tobie is in a much better mood!!

Happy Birthday Mom!!!













Today is mom's birthday (I won't say what year, though I think we all know it is a big one!!!!) I hope she has fun shopping with her sisters at Briarcliff today.

Dr. Appt.

We had our monthly Dr. appt yesterday with Dr. Snider, everything looked and sounded great. I love being able to hear the heartbeat at the appointment, pretty amazing!! Next month I get to do the dreaded glucose test, I am not looking forward to it, Brian says "it looks just like Sunkist", though I doubt it taste like it. After the appointment Brian and I ventured to Babiesrus and Target to register, we didn't realize how exhausting this would be, even with me researching the different brands on the internet. We did however manage to find a dresser at Babyland yesterday, so now Brian has to get the trim up in the room and we can start making it look like a nursery!!!
