End of Summer

Today was the last official day of my summer. I've been going in a few hours each day this past week, just to get some things done. I'm sure going to miss Nikelle. The first day back to the babysitters was rough. She cried and chased me down. Poor Sarah had to hold her back while I said goodbye and left. I hate doing that. I know that it is better then sitting there and hoping she gets over it, but it's so hard.

Today I am also 9 weeks into being pregnant. I can honestly say things are getting better. I'm not as sick as I was a few weeks ago. I'm way nervous going back to school, just because I'm afraid of being sick. But, if things stay the way they have been, then I should be ok. I just keep telling myself: I will be ok, and things will go well. I just want to do a good job at my job and not let the kids down. My team mates are super awesome, so that is the plus side. I know that if I'm having a rough day they will be there to help me along. What can I say, the school year does go by pretty quickly. I know I can do it!

The Big News...with a sidenote!

The big news!!

That arrow is pointing to the heartbeat.

As many of you know....Nikelle is going to be a big sister. YAY! I'm so glad that we decided to try for another cute kid, and grateful that it happened. Now comes the hard part. I really do not care for being pregnant. So, with my happy announcement I'm going to put the things I like/dislike about being pregnant. I might have to start a weekly pity party blog just for me. So, if you like to just hear the happy news skip the negatives and read the positives or don't go on much further.....yes it's one of those days!

Anywho....lets start with the negatives:

-being sick: I know I don't have it as bad as others, but I hate it!
-having crabby moments and not knowing why.
-having my two year old know that she can get away with things because mommy is not feeling well.....aka: potty training!
-waking up 50 times at night and I'm only 7 weeks???
-Not being able to eat regularly. Nothing sounds good....and you know what I mean?
-getting fatter: although I prefer this to the sickness
-remembering to take vitamins: I hate taking pills..it just bugs me.
-being stressed about how I'm going to do at work: I was already in tears at the doctors office because of it.
-Missing swimming everyday: my suit kinda is not fitting very well.
-My house is a mess (except the toilets..read below)
-Missing work....I hate that!

Well...that might be enough of the negatives I'll come up with some more.

Now, the happy thoughts!

-being pregnant in the winter (maybe I won't blow up too bad)
-I'll be able to wear sweatshirts to hide my extra fattyness.
-being able to have another baby: I know there are so many that can't. I'm grateful just crabby.
-Talking to Nikelle about what to name the baby (nacho is what she came up with)
-Feeling the baby kick (I've kinda gotten over it. I still think it's strange, but it grosses so many people out...kinda entertaining)
-buying new clothes
-My toilets get cleaned daily instead of once a week.
-Going to my doctor appointments to check on the little one.


Well...I think that might do for tonight. I guess I'm just having a bad day, and tomorrow will be better. I just needed to let it out. I'm really try to stay positive with this one and know that things will get better. It's just trying to get up each day and tell myself that. I wish I had a magic fairy for those days that I just can't get it all done. I know the potty training will come and my house will get cleaned...I just worked so hard! I guess one thing I have to look forward to is I only have 33 weeks to go....ugh!

Goodbye.....

Goodbye to my good friend...Jetta...the car! We finally sold my car that I dreamed of getting. I remember when we found that car, I was beyond happy. The lights inside were purple and red. I loved that it had a sunroof. It was just what I wanted. It was the first car I owned. We had it payed off for a few years even though we had to pay for many costly repairs......We just knew that it was time for us to get rid of it and find a new car. Now, we are looking for a new car, so I drive the truck (eeek) and Nik is driving his jeep. I keep waiting for a phone call saying hes stuck somewhere, but it's the jeep. I hope my car enjoys her new home, I know I will miss it!
