So, I'm gunna show you what the babies room will look like! :) Ha.

Oh, and I had a little breakdown this morning and laid in bed crying. (Doug was at work, lol) I only have 10 weeks left. I want him to stay in there. I don't want him to come out. Because, Well, When he comes out.. all he is going to do is get bigger. and I want him to be little forever :(

So, Nursery Furniture & Bedding from JC Penny.


(This is his crib! It converts into a toddler bed and full size bed!)


Changing table! :) (I wanna put baskets in the holes like it shows in the picture!)


Toybox! It looks like it has drawers, but it opens from the top just like a normal toy box!


Dresser!

anddd.

Book shelf! I really wanted a dresser with a hutch, but I couldn't find one I liked enough. So, I decided on the book shelf instead! :)

with this bedding :)


We registered at babies r us and jc penny. jc penny has all this stuff.. babies r us has everything else. :) lol.

OMG 10 MORE WEEKS !

p.s. I really wanna go shopping today, but I have nothing to get, and hardly any money. lol!

Two more pictures!!

This is from week 24:



and this is from week 25:



Lol. I look bigger in 24? Who knows.

I'm definitely getting there though. Whew. 96 days to go!

School is kicking my ass. :X I'm doing pretty crappy in biology. But, hopefully I can get at leastt a C. I'm trying REALLY hard.

Douglas is buying a house!! In dundalk :) Close to my mommy! lol. The house is on Pinewood. I believe settlement is on the 12th. I'm confused about the whole deal, but I think that is what he said. LOL.

We go for our 3d/4d ultrasound on the 15th!! I'm super excited for that! We will be 28 weeks then!

What else? Hm. The doctor seems to think my weight is fine. So. That is good! I'm still "behind" accoring to online. I'm about 126-127ish now. online it says I should be 131-137. So, whatever.

Okay! Gotta go clean up, then get ready for school!

XO

I felt pretty huge today, LOL! So, I took a picture of myself in the bathroom mirror.
So, its definitely not a great picture. LOL! But, Its a belly picture!

Doug and I have been taking weekly pictures. But, they're mostly on his camera. and he hasn't put them on the computer yet.

23 wks. 5 days (I think)

<3

22 wks, 2 days.

So, I know its in a persons nature to comment on a pregnant belly. EVERYONE wants to do it. Some people do it outloud, and some don't. and yeah, i love it when people notice. I mean, how many chances does a woman REALLY get to go through this? 2-3 in a lifetime..? depending on your preference. Well, everyone keeps commenting on how ~little~ i am. and it has me all nervous.

So, being crazy. I googled a pregnancy weight gain chart. Should't have. lol. It didn't help. I started off pre-pregnancy weighing about 113. I rounded it up to 115 because I said so. Anyway, this is what the website said..

I put in 115lbs pre-pregnancy & week 22.

Results:
A healthy weight range for you at 22 weeks of pregnancy is between 127 lbs. and 133 lbs. Your perfect weight is 130 pounds.

Ugh. I weighed myself first thing this morning and I was 123.0, after breakfast and going potty (lol) I was 122.8. 127 is the minimum there. I'm 4 lbs away from the MINIMUM. :(

& By the end of the day, I'm still barely 125lbs, with clothes on.

So, all in all, I'm worried. Now, I don't wanna go all crazy and start eating like a maniac. I eat when I'm hungry. and sometimes even when I'm not hungry. The doctor didn't say anything at my last appointment, But I haven't even seen the same doctor twice yet. There are 3 doctors in the practice.. and I have only seen 2 so far.

I know this isn't really something to stress out about.. and I'm not. I'm just concerned.

But, on a happier note, I feel him moving all around! It is pretty neat! Doug can feel him sometimes too! :)

Alright, I gotta get ready for school. XO

This is probably going to be short. I don't even feel like typing. (just being lazy)

But, The appointment went so well today! They ultrasound tech did NOT see a cyst! She also called the doctor in who also did NOT see the cyst! :) They said everything looked wonderful! The doctor said the other tech @ stupid advanced radiology might have mistaken a blood vessel for a cyst. Ugh!

But, at least everything is good! :)



& a penis picture for ashley! (I posted the other pictures on facebook, so here is one for you!!)



19 weeks 5 days.

There is a new ticker. My due date changed as of last month. & I like this due date better. I originally said the 7th (according to my last period) the doctor says the 6th! I thought it was a little off before. Not like babies actually come on their due dates anyway. lol.

So, I've been pretty blah lately. I feel kinda worthless. I'm just looking forward to the baby being here so I can feel like I have a purpose in life. I did start school last monday. That is going really well.. But I still feel like crap.

I get to find out the sex of the baby on September 9th. That is coming close. We already think it is a boy, but we'll find out for sure then. I wonder when I'm supposed to register? I really want to. lol. :/

I hope I start feeling better soon. It kinda sucks to feel sad all the time. I might talk to my doctor about it when I have my next appointment if I don't feel much better by then. Hopefully I do though.

17 wks 3 days.

I went to GBMC today for my first doctor's appointment with the new doctors. It was nice. I didn't get to see the baby, or even hear the heartbeat! The lady said I would be able to hear the heartbeat, but with all the confusion over changing doctors.. I guess she forgot :(

I cried the whole way to the doctor's. I was just really nervous. It's kind of scary to me the doctor is at GBMC.. which is where I'm actually going to deliver. I started getting all freaked out. Thankfully I was no where near Labor and Delivery. LOL! But, Tuesday I have to go in for 1st trimester screening.. and I believe that is over near L&D! :( AAAHHHH!

Switching doctors has been a bit of a mess for us.. but, hopefully it will all get worked out soon!

I'm kinda tired, and bored. I think I'ma go read for a while.. then go to bed!

XO

Today is 12 weeks! Which means.. one more week until the 2nd trimester! :)
We have an appointment on Friday! Douglas has off work again! I'm excited! He has had off work for both of our appointments so far! Now, lets just hope he isn't in surgery when I actually go into labor! LOL! My mom keeps telling me that is going to happen :/!

I'm going to see a new doctor Friday. I'm kind of excited about that! The new doctor is at GBMC! That is where I was born :) My old doctor delivered at Mercy.. and.. I kind of didn't want to deliver there. :/

I've been doing pretty well! I haven't thrown up once! :Knock on wood!:: I actually haven't gained any weight either. :/ I'm kinda scared the doctor is going to yell at me for that. :/! We'll see.

So. I'm going to California in a week! I'm so scared. LOL! The last time I flew I took xanax because I was SO afraid. It doesn't look like I'll be able to do that this time around :( Hopefully I'll be okay. Ugh!

We got our new Kitchen Table yesterday! It looks really good! :) I like it a lot! :)

Okay. Thats all.

BYE! XO

& this is for Erin <3




& this.



This was 8 weeks 1 day. Its blurry because I was excited. LOL! I took a picture of the picture with my phone :)

SOOO. I'm pregnant. lol.

8 wks 2 days.

went to the doctors yesterday. everything looked fine. i gotta little picture. :)

I'm excited. and Doug is being really positive, so that helps out a LOT! :)
I can't believe he and I just got back together after 8 years.. and we end up pregnant so fast.

I guess it was always meant to be <3

you know what.

i dont understand how someone can want something SO bad, and not get it.. yet someone who doesnt really want it, can.

:/

it is approximately 817 degrees in my bedroom. i'm melting away to nothing.

i can't sleep.

i'm laying in bed on my brand new laptop!! i bought it today :) it is my first one ever!!! bestbuy had a promotion with 18mo interest free, so i got one! :) i needed one anyway for school come August sooo, i figured why not take advantage of the promotion now! I also bought a new TV! Mine is from 1982. My DVD player wont even hook up to it, lol! But, I told myself I MUST clean my room before I hook it up. It just isn't fair, lol! My room looks worse than hurricane katrina!

So, anyway. A lot has been going on. I got ~let go~ from Baltimore Door last Monday. Other than being slightly bored, i couldn't be happier! LOL! I know that sounds bad, but I was really starting to be annoyed by Jen & Janice's clickyness. It gets old. I still have Cookie Lee to keep me going!

PLUS. Joey (my brother) knows this guy who needs a personal assistant. He needs help with keeping his finances in order, and things like that! I'm going to meet with him as soon as I get my new car!

That brings us to.. MY NEW CAR. My civic was totaled March 31st? ish? Pretty freakin shitty. I'm really sad about it. My car ins. people are making it worse too. I haven't recieved the money for the total loss yet, and I had to turn in my rental car today. :/ I am offically carless. :/ I should be getting the new car soon! It is a 2005 Scion TC. It is SOO cute!

Alright, I'm gettin outta here.

p.s. if anyone still reads this, i;m in a community called pinkplace. it is super cute & girly. and well, it helps cure the boredom. Hahah. If anyone is interested let me know! I get bonus points for referrals until Thursday. (yeah, i don't really care about the points) It really is a neat place! check it out!

Come join Pink Place - A fun, friendly and girly place to hang out on LJ!

So, Let me start this off by saying I have had an entire bottle of wine to myself.. and about a quarter of some leftover wine.. and I still feel COMPLETELY SOBER!!!!!! What the fuck?

But, anyways...

I do feel like everyone has a "true love". But, I don't neccessarily believe that 'true love' has to be a significant other :)

I also DO believe in LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT. I cant tell you that I have experienced this first hand. The day I met my neice I KNEW I have NEVER loved anyone more than I loved her at the VERY moment I laid eyes on her. I know I will have the exact same feelings when it comes down to having children of my own.

Now, on the other hand.. I do not believe that you can fall in love with a boyfriend/girlfriend at first sight. you may feel LUST, but never love.

Okay. I'm gunna go read. This Q? was too good to leave unanswered!!

XOXO

I would take breaking dawn because I can't wait to finish it!!
I would take the gatecrasher because I have been trying to finish that since the summer!!
Then I would take the first 3 books in the women's murder club by james patterson. After I finish the twilight series (finally, lol) I plan to start reading them!

This question is so funny.. because I LOVE to read! On my snow day yesterday I read 425 pages! :) lol. I really want to finish up this twilight series! I just haven't had the time!!

Other than that.. things with me have been GREAT! Cookie Lee has really been booming for me! I had two parties this past weekend.. combined I had about 1200 in sales! I brought home $840. I paid for my flight for California!!!! & I ordered a bunch of new jewelry! :) I have 3 more shows coming up this month! the 19th, 21st and 22nd! :) YAY!
Plus, I had a prospective recruit email me yesterday!! WOOHOO!!!

So, I never really write in here.. But I thought it might be neat to start using these writer's block blurbs as a starting point. I doubt I'll do them daily.. But I do find a lot of them interesting enough to write about.

So, on with my first one..

If I won the lottery I would make sure to take care of my immediate family's debt. Pay off their houses, etc. I would also pay off my friend's credit cards and school loans. They need the most help :) I'm not really sure if I would do anything really extravagant though. I would definitely buy myself a gorgeous house with lots of room for sleepovers! :) I would also keep enough money aside to be able to go to school and not work a full-time job. I would definitely keep doing Cookie Lee though. I LOVE Cookie Lee too much to quit because of money!

Depending on how much I won, I would also donate money to several children's foundations.

I would also make sure Charley never wanted for anything, ever. She is the absolute love of my life and I want to make sure she is 100% happy all the time :)

Oh, and I'd take my baby cousin to HOLLYWOOD to get her a singing contract. She needs it! Babygirl is an amazing singer!

I think the best part of hitting the lottery would be the financial stability. I have been working for SO long to get my credit cards paid off. Ugh!

SO, Thats all for today. :)

XOXOXOOX

apparently, i suck at LJing. Hahah. I never write in here, idk if anyone even reads this shit, lol!

well, jared and i had a semi-fight. he always goes out with his friends & blahblah and neverrr invites me. I've been out with him + his friends like twice. in 7 months! shit is whack. lol. idk, i just told him it bothered me, again.. for the 800th time. i just get soo frustrated. idk.

so, anyway, everything is fine now, we'll see if anything changes. i went to his house yesterday morning & spent the whole day with him. that was really nice! who knows.

charley turned 11 months yesterday. wow. 1 more month until she is a year. i cant believe it. i cry thinking about it :/! lol.

oh, and i started selling cookie lee jewelry. if you don't know what that is, ask me! my kit should come in the mail tomorrow & i already have 3 parties booked. i am having like an open house on sunday if anyone wants to come! ~or if you want to book a party of your own & earn free/50% jewelry let me know! the new fall/winter stuff is damn cute, lol! & its very affordable!

my neice just said "everything"
& no, she doesn't talk yet.
my mom and dad heard it too! so, i'm not going crazy! LOL!

I came home from work.. and she was sitting on my moms lap. I asked her if she was bad today. (I usually do) & she just smiled at me. So, I asked what she got into today? and then I said "EVERRRRRRYYYYTHINGGGG" and not but two seconds later she repeated it. Clear as day. She said "Ev-Rey-Thing"

I was SO excited I cried. and I looked at my mom and dad to make sure they heard the same thing I did! LOL!

Now, I know its probably just coincidence.. But I'm still excited! LOL! She is only 7 months old! LOL!

♥

Wow. It totally just took me like 4 days to delete all my old entires. I'll delete this too, once I get started again. I just didn't wanna have a blank journal.

& for anyone that might still read this, lol. I'll be writing in here again :)
