Happy Valentines day!

It's been a busy, busy week! So much going on! Between working, meal planning, budgeting, cleaning, lesson planning, cooking and of course thinking about baby stuff. I felt has if this week has just flown past! So to catch up here are some pictures of our lovely couches.

Both recline and we got the set for 100$ not a bad deal if you ask me :) I'm very proud of myself for finding them. It took a little effort to get them to our house though we had to call my lovely grandparents and borrow their truck and then there were the small set of stairs and of course we had to take our door off to get them inside our apt. It was hard work! but not for me...I was making dinner while William, his good friend Tyrell, my Grandfather and Christine did all the lifting and such. I figured with my little noodle arms i'd just get i the way so i figured at least i could make dinner for everyone! 

We went to a Young Married Dance hosted by the insitiute and it was pretty fun! They took pictures there but my email didn't get them so you'll just have to try and imagine how spiffy we looked ;) I wore my red and black lace dress that i love so and will looked dashing in a red shirt and black tie. It was the first time that kind of wished that i wasn't showing. Cause for people that don't know me it looks more like i overloaded on doughnuts more then a baby bump. But it was so much fun to just dance and act all crazy.

(Really the secound trimester is so great. I still just can't believe how sick i was the first trimester. I do recall on really bad days jokingly asking Will if it was possible to put me in a six month coma. Of course he refused lol) 
So here is my little baby belly! I put it with a picture of me before i got pregnant and me at 15 weeks. SEE there is a difference!

William and Tyrell had a bro's night the other night. It was honestly the first time me and Will were apart for an activity and i'm not going to lie it felt kind of weird. But when i got home from work i saw a card and flowers waiting for me. Aw my sweet husband. He does spoil me so!

And lastly....

 we went to the Dr. Office and as the nurse was taking the heart rate we kept hearing a "whooomp!" noise like every few secounds. She looked at me and gave a little smile saying normally it didn't take so long but the baby kept kicking at the machine. Haha apperently i have a little ninja inside my tummy! So drum roll please.... We will be finding out the gender March 5th which is about 2 weeks away so feel free to post what you think baby Casperlet might be! So far we have 1 vote for a girl and 1 vote for a boy. So all y'all speak up i wanna know what your guess is! :D

Week 15

Its been awhile since I’ve wrote anything and for those who are reading this I am very sorry.

I was talking to my dad the other day and he was thinking of writing a blog (which I think he should he’s a brilliant writer) but he couldn’t decided who his audience was. If it would be public, for the family, like a diary or so on. Which left me thinking…who am I writing for? And I have come to the conclusion. No one. I don’t write like it’s a diary because that would be far too personal, I think I just write for whoever wants to read. Be it family, future grandchildren or monkeys from space. I just write because it calms me.

Part of the reason I haven’t wrote much of anything lately is because well…there didn’t seem to be much to write about other then

“Today I threw up everything I ever ate in my lifetime!”

 Which is depressing and not very fun to read.

However now that morning sickness is starting to fade there is a little bit more to write about J …little by little I can eat again. Which if any of you know me, you know how much I love food and what a happy occasion eating is right now.  My biggest joy? Meat.  Yep the bulk of the first trimester anything meat related would send me rushing for the porcelain throne. Smell, touch, even seeing it…it was bad. Also veggies became a huge no-no. needless to say food like pasta and pancakes became very important to me.

The baby takes after its dad. I tried to feed it healthy things and it rejected it and demanded potato chips and Shockers. I fear for the future…

Along with the food issues have been the crazy emotional roller coaster. My poor angel of a husband would sit in confusion as I sobbed helplessly over an episode of “Friends”

But I keep being told it’s worth it and funny enough I believe it. Seeing and hearing that little munchkins heart beating would be enough for anyone. Let me tell you…it really is amazing.

I’m afraid I have no pictures of “here look at my belly!” Cause I’m not really showing and my outfit tends to consist of sweats, a t-shirt and a roughly done braid. Which don’t really scream “I’m a model!”  I sit back and look at these pregnant women who dress to the nine constantly and go “how do you do it?”

And for the pregnant women what else do we have? Drum roll please…Couches!!!!! Or a couch and a recliner. We got em for a steal and let me tell you its much nicer to lay on those then on the floor. They are lovely! They are all squishy and wonderful. And I’m pretty much in love with them. I have no pictures on this one sorry :/ but mostly I just wanted to get caught up there should be more this Friday :)
