Baby Shopping

Baby shopping can be so hard... It's crazy all the new things they have out now, that they didn't have when J was that small and that was only 2 and a half years ago... My latest obsession is nursery decor... We've painted the room so we're good there.... The picture above is our inspiration... We've done the blocks on the wall and used different blues and greens... and our crib won't be white. We're also doing the funky things on the ceiling.

Anyway...

Today's agenda. Go eat a late breakfast, shop, go to the pool, relax, watch the Simpson's movie later on our family date.

Goodness... sometimes I think back to the days where I could just sleep until noon, get up and go to the beach with my girls, guy watch, come home get ready to go out, hit dinner with friends, and dance the night away at our favorite hot spot... *sighs*

Life was so simple then. haha... but I wouldn't trade my family for any of that back... Well... sometimes. I'm just sayin.

It's Hard

Being a military wife... I really miss my hometown and my friends... My best friend is pregnant right now too... and we should be doing this pregnancy thing together, but I'm here and she's there, all we do is share an occasional phone call or email... I actually started to cry today... D and I went to lunch at a sushi restaurant and when we walk in all I see are these women together, having lunch, laughing, talking, and doing things that women do, when the feeling overwhelmed me that I don't have that with anyone any more.... It's just D and I. And while I love my husband with all of my being, every woman should have a friend it which she can do girl things with. I've met a few women... but nothing real promising... we'll see what happens... Anyway... that is all... It's Friday, I'm going to bed and Saturday will be here before I know it.

Tired...

I'm sitting here at my desk and I'm taking my usual 9:00 break and it just hit me. I'm super tired... with my boss gone I can usually sneak in a nap... but today I'm extra busy... Bummer right. I think for lunch I'm going to my husband's office and take a nap. lol This boy has me tired today... lol

Hola

It's been a while since I've been here so I figured since I have about 15 min or so left at the office and nothing to do, I'd blog. This has been really fun, and I enjoy reading other blogs as well. I wish I was more experienced at it so I could add some of my favorite blogs to my page so you all could read them too. I'm open for advice on how to do that.... *hint hint*

Anyway... Lets see... I'm 23 weeks and 5 days pregnant. It's been crazy, fun, exciting, and scary. I went to the hospital this past weekend because I was having contractions and it scared the shit out of me. I was like NOT AGAIN!!!! A little recap... I went into labor at 23 weeks with our daughter J and I've been praying that it doesn't happen again with this pregnancy. So... we go to the ER, without calling my OB... which pissed him off... I forgot... pregnancy brain. Anyway we get there and I'm still having them, so the nurse comes in... and acts as if I'm lying... I was ready to go the hell off on this woman, but my husband beat me to the punch... I love his style of telling people off. He doesn't do it to often but when he does... It's a sight to see. He will intelligently tell you off and make you feel like an idiot and a half... Needless to say that nurse was better after that.

Anyhow, long story short, the doc showed up, checked me, everything was still closed, no baby coming out, so he sent me home to bedrest... Yuck. I called him Sunday night and begged him to let me go to work just so I could get out of the house... He said fine after he called my boss and gave him specific instructions that I was just to sit at the computer... and nothing else but use the restroom. My boss was so cute the next day... He was at my beck and call... He's like, I can't let my nephew come out early! My boss rocks!

We're really excited because J just got excepted into the daycare on base, which is so much better than her daycare now! She's such a sponge right now and I want her to be at a daycare that will prepare her for school, instead of the one she's at now where it's like Lord of the Flies when we go and pick her up... but that will be a thing of the past next Monday! Thank God!

Wow... this has been a pretty random post for me... that is I... full of randomness... it makes life more interesting. Ok... so the husband has pulled up... we both work on base and have the same hours so we carpool. It's pretty cool that way. I don't like driving in traffic, and he doesn't mind... so it works. More later...

PS... I'll be adding more to the Story of Us very soon! :-)

An update...

In my Monday post below, I introduced you to T. Well... a couple of weeks ago T got fired, because he had the audacity to yell at me. My boss was like OH HELL NO! and that was the end of T.'s employment here. That is all! God is good, you don't mess with His children!
