I'M PREGNANT

I am 7wk 6days. We are really excited!!!! I have been waiting to tell until I had an ultrasound. I went to the doctor and saw and heard the baby. There was a definite heart beat and we could see it beating. Abby was very confused. I have been having plenty of nausea...always fun. My nausea comes anytime of the day. I am not real sure why they call it morning sickness. I have also noticed i am having a hard time wearing some of my clothes. I think it is a little to soon but what can i do. I go back to the doctor at the end of march. I will keep updating.

Random Post

I am so sick of the winter I could scream!!!! I just want to get out of my house and feel the warm sunshine. Abby and I have been walking in the 30 degree weather for longer than I like. I look at the weather in jackson each morning and it is like 70 degrees everyday! We are all very jealous.

My Mom is coming next week and i am so excited. Abby has music class one of the mornings my mom is here so that should be fun. I hope it warms up a little and we can go to the zoo. I always feel a little better when my mom is around.

Last night for about an hour there were police, police dogs, and a helicopter flying over our house. The lights were shining in our house and it was very loud. Abby thought it was very cool....I did not think it was so cool. I found out a lady had been assaulted down the street in my neighborhood!!! This was the third assault this weekend in pretty busy areas. They did not catch the guy. Needless to say I am very upset. This is like my worst fear in the world. I get scared in my house very easy. I now have to change the route I walk on and stay on the main street. I really don't like these kind of people!!

Happy Birthday Abby

We had a party for Abby last night. She had a blast!!! We were having a small ice storm last night so it took everyone forever to get here. I am so lucky that we have such sweet friends to get out in the weather for abby's bday. She had the best time with everyone.

This morning she woke up and we got her a cupcake and she blew out the candle. She was in awe. Guy took the day off and they have had a blast all day. We went to art and then Abby got to go to mcdonalds and got a happy meal. SHe has had a great birthday.

So tired

This is abby's art from this week. They got to paint with many differnt colors and then use roller brushes. She thought it was so cool.

Things coming this spring

I have been looking forward to the spring with all the things we get to do and birthdays to celebrate! Abby's birthday is the 13th, valentines day, Guy's birthday is the 4th of march, easter, and my birthday is the 3rd of arpil. I love celebrating holidays and birthdays. There is something really cool about celebrating the day someone was born. I remember abby's birthday like it was yesterday. We are going to have a small party with pizza and cake on the 12th. I wanted to get her this elaborate cake but decided on a more simple cake.

Guy's parents are coming in two weeks and we are excited to see them. They got abby this kitchen for her birthday. I think she may pass out when she sees it! My Mom is coming on the 5th of march. I am so excited to see her! I don't know what i would do without my mom. I am hoping the weather is a little warmer so we can do some fun stuff outside.

Guy will be going to jackson soon for an interview. We are going to oxford at the end of april for double decker and for an interview. I have not been back to oxford in eight years. I can't believe it has been that long. My mom is coming with us so we will have some help. I am going to stay in jackson a couple of days after we get back from oxford so i can visit with my sweet friends.

We are trying to plan a trip to disney world in september. I would love anyones advice on things to do. I haven't been to disney world since 3rd grade. I really think abby will have a blast. there is a military hotel we can stay in for cheaper and military gets discounted passes. I think I may be more excited than anybody about this trip!

update

I really dont know why I haven't posted anything. Abby started Art, Music, and Swimming classes this past week. She has been to music twice and really likes the class and the teacher. She has started to come out of her shell in the class. When it is really cold we go to my gym in the afternoon for free play. She will hang from the bars for minutes at a time. SHe has zero fear of trying new things. She is always talking and laughing and we are always entertained.

Guy has some second interviews coming upin the next couple of months. He has some really hard decisions to make. Out of all of his options I would be happy with any path he chooses. I am really glad to be at this point. I will kepp everyone updated.

I promise to post more often.

Art

Abby started Art class this past week and this is what she made. She shows everybody who comes in our house. SHe is very proud of herself.

Snow

So this is about a month late!!! We had about two inches of snow and Abby had a blast. We can't wait for it to snow again.

Christmas and more

We had a great christmas! My Mom and brother got here on Saturday and left Wednesday. We had our neighbors and our waitress from our favorite place to eat over for dinner on christmas eve. we had a low key christmas brunch. I had the best time having my family here. I miss them very much when they leave. Abby had the best time opening her gifts and playing with all her stuff. I think she was a little overwhelmed by everything.

On christmas day Abby got the stomach virus..then I got it wednesday..then guy got it friday. We were all under the weather until late sunday afternoon. I HATE THE STOMACH VIRUS!!!!!

Sunday morning Abby punched me on my bare eye and I got a corneal abrasion.. LOTS OF FUN. I felt like I had ten eyelashes in my eye and i couldn't get them out. I could not open my eye until late last night. I am putting antibiotics in my eye and taking pain medication. I hate pain medication! I didn't take anything after I had Abby....so let me tell you this really really hurts. The opthomologist said it should get alot better in next day or so. By the way Abby did not mean to hit me and was very upset. she kept saying moma ok, i sorry, give hug. It was very cute and made me feel so much better.

I hope everyone has a great new years!!
