Oh dear...

Well I had a dr appointment last Thursday. I haven't posted about my appointment yet but I will now. I brought Darren's mom with me because she wanted to hear the heartbeat. Well we go and we actually don't wait very long at all. We go back and my dr's nurse took all my vitals and whipped out the dopplar. She had problems finding the heartbeat. A few weeks ago I was very sick and had high fever. When I went in to see them then she had no problem finding it. It made me nervous and I'm actually still not feeling the best about my appointment but she didn't seem worried so I'm trying not to be. She would catch bits and pieces but wasn't entirely sure if it was the placenta or the baby. I had no idea the placenta gave off a noise for the dopplar!

Well we see the doc and he confirms my next appt and we leave. On the way home, Darren's mom asks me if she can come when we find out what we're having. Now, I have zero problems talking to my MIL because she's just that awesome. So I told her "look this is kinda something for me and Darren. You know..it's like our little family thing. it'll be the only appointment Darren comes to and I'd love it if it was just me and him" Well she didn't have a problem with it.

She then asks me who is all going to be in the delivery room! I tell her "Just me and Darren and the medical staff. Darren isn't allowed past my stomach." She says well when you delivered Wyatt you let T (Darren's sister) stay in the room. I tell her "Yes I let her stay but only because I couldn't stop crying to ask her to leave. I don't want anyone else in that room but us. It's a special time for us and after everything is all cleaned up and my legs are freaking closed everyone is more than welcome to come in"

She then asks if we're going to film the birth!!!!!

Okay I think that's where I almost slammed on my breaks (I was driving back to her house to drop her off) I turned to her and said "Why in the world would I want to film a baby coming out of me? That's not something I ever want to watch or ever want to show my children!" Apparantly Darren's sister let her parents film it with her two kids..I reminded her I wasn't T and that was something that was deffinately NOT being filmed. She proceeded to tell me I was wierd and was a freak since I didn't want to film the birth. She thinks I'm being to "over protective" of this pregnancy...hmmm...I actually prefer to think of it as mine and my husbands own personal choices. Well except the filming..that's my own damn choice. That's my girly bits all out in the open!

I'm wondering if I'm going to have problems with this basket case later on down the road in this pregnancy....

Car is paid off!

I just went and put my final carnote in the mail. I've been paying $222.18 a month since I got the car my sr year in high school as a "graduation present" that I had to pay for! When we got our taxes back we had a deal that Darren could put new tires on his truck and fix his work truck so he could quit driving his silverado to work and I could pay my car off. Whatever is left over we're putting it towards a loan to add onto our house for the baby's room and making our room bigger with a bigger closet. Can't wait for the summer so we can get started on all that.


My current cravings are: Spaghetti (which our friend Josh showed me how to make his homemade sauce. We started the sauce last night and let it cook for 2 hours, then let it cool and threw it in the fridge. Today we'll add the meatballs and let it simmer again for another 2 hours before we FINALLY EAT!!) Banana Nut bread (which Ali from the BR Nestie board mentioned and I HAD to have it..I baked a pan last night and had some for breakfast) Jellybeans (I have 2 bags of starburst jellybeans in my desk drawer) and also Laffy Taffy (I have 2 bags of them in my drawer also, and the best part is, it's only banana and strawberry flavorings in the bag! woot woot)

First baby dream

I had my first baby dream last night. It was so wierd too...me and Darren both have dark hair and dark eyes. The baby in my dream was a boy(yay) but he had blonde hair, blue eyes and was such a porker! I'm thinkin I was dreaming of Darren's son B as a baby but I don't know. Either way...my first baby dream and it was a boy! woo hoo...
This weekend is gonna suck...wet, cold, and rainy. I was thinking about tellin Darren lets go see a movie Sunday and eat lunch somewhere but with the weather I just want to stay home.

Warm Milk

Makes me gag thinking of it!! I want my milk ice cold...like I'll pour a glass of milk and put it in the freezer for 15-20 mins or so before I even drink it. Well last night I wanted just a few sips of milk with my thin mints. I didn't put it in the freezer..I just took a sip and I almost threw up in my mouth! It wasn't warm, but it wasn't cold. It was like a temperature of tap water. Very very nasty. I am calling a repair man for the fridge today..I might even just throw the damn thing away and buy a new one. I threw up my dinner and yes this is TMI so stop reading if you have a weak stomach..but penne noodles and chicken are very hard to throw up. Okay you can start reading again...my throat hurts and I'm not hungry at all this morning. I want to eat a BLT for breakfast but it just doesn't seem like it's gona happen...

Bad weekend

Well Friday wasn't that bad..I worked and went home..nothing big or abnormal. Saturday was a different story. I got up feeling fine, got ready for work feeling fine..got to work and BAM! I got the chills and started feeling really bad. I was supposed to close but I sweet talked another girl into switching with me so I got off before 8:30ish. I went home and took my temp..I had a fever of 100.7 so I ate dinner (yummy grilled chicken salad Darren made) and went straight to bed. I locked myself up in the room all night and most of the day Sunday because the kids were there and I didn't want to get them sick. Mostly because when they come, they're always sick and I usually catch their colds. For once, they weren't sick and I was..I didn't want them sick with whatever I had. Well Sunday while Darren was gone my fever got up to 102.5 and I almost went to the ER. I took some more tylenol and it came down. My fever stayed between 100.something-101.something for the rest of Sunday/night. Called my OB yesterday morning to let them know about my eventful weekend and he wanted me to come in ASAP.( On my info packed it says to let them know about any fever over 100 degrees) sweet nurse took my temp, asked about my symptoms, and then she let me hear the heartbeat after joking about the baby being boiled all weekend..It was such a great sound to hear! Yay for heartbeats!!
Anyway...today I feel alot better so I came to work.

1st year anniversary

Well yesterday was our first year anniversary and it was great. We slept late, got up and went to walmart to get stuff for our crawfish boil. Josh came over around 3 with the crawfish and the boys got to work. They were so good and between the 3 of us we ate almost a whole sack! I had taken our cake out Friday and thawed it out in the fridge, then took it out yesterday afternoon and left it on the counter. We ate some last night before going to bed and OH MY GOODNESS it still tastes as good as it did at our wedding. My stepmom did a good job of wrapping it up for us. It was such a good day!
We both work today and tonight but we're off all day tomorrow bc we're going to New Orleans for the concert!!! Can't wait! We're eating PF Changs before! YUM!! The banana spring roll is calling my name!
