Michelle, I’m so glad you are having fun with your blog. Way to go!!

Melissa!!! FEEL BETTER!!

I am on spring break now…even though I am working. I have had a bunch of MK orders today so I am happy!! And after today I am off school and work for a whole week!!! YEAH!!

And we get to see the baby in 10 days on the ultrasound. YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!

I am about to go to my last class before spring break!!! YEAH!!!!! ONE HOUR and 28 Minutes!!!
I had a great day with Mary Kay yesterday. I did my first facial and it went so good. I had a big sale and got me really excited. Now if I could just schedule two or three of these a week I would be all set. Any one need a facial?? 🙂

Gotta go to class….check back later!

Well this morning I did a funny thing, But it worked out for the best. I woke us up like usual. On Tuesday’s and Thursday’s we get up around 8:15. Its so great to sleep in a little 🙂 Well this morning we were so tired and I kept hitting snooze. Well at 8:40 I realized and was like BJ we have to get up and hurry. So we are hurrying around getting ready….we have class at 9:30..so I go to turn my computer on and it says 8:00???? I was so confused. Then I remember that I had set the clock to the wrong time yesterday to take a picture of it for class. Then I didn’t set it back to the right hour. But just set the alarm for this morning. Well, luckily I set it back and not forward because BJ has a test this morning. So he was able to study for a whole extra hour due to my goof up. It was sort of funny though. But nice to know that we didn’t have to rush.

Have a happy Thursday!! The weekend is near and that means SPRING BREAK is here!!!!!!!!!

Well yesterday I embarrassed myself. The thing is probably no one really cared but I was embarrassed FOR myself, and here’s why…

well as many of you know, I love softball…played it forever since I was 10 or so and played through high school. My brother played baseball and I know the game pretty well to say the least. Well yesterday in my college P.E. class we got to go outside and play kick ball since it was a b.e.a. utiful day!!! So…there I am in the outfield and this guy kicks this really high ball into the air. Now mind you, the ball is not the normal kick ball size, its more like the size of the balls you can stretch on and do pilates with. Right, so its really bouncy and huge, and coming straight for me….so I put my arms up in the air thinking, there is no way I am going to be able to hold on to this ball when it hits me…..well somehow I did…and I let out a scream when I did because I was so excited. WHAT A DORK…I had to have looked like the girliest girl alive. No one really did anything…but I was embarrassed….I couldn’t believe I had just squeeled with delight for catching a ball. Ok so its been awhile since I have participated in competitive sporting events… I just had to get it out of my system. HA…..now on to the embarrassing part. Yeah, that wasn’t it…..

So I’m standing in line waiting to “bat” or kick, and one of my teammates kicks the ball and runs to first base and runs through the base since he was running so fast. Well me and all my baseball/softball knowledge turn to the guys behind me and say…”haha…he ran through first base, I can’t believe they didn’t tag him out” Again….WHAT!!! What am I thinking, of course you can run through first base without getting out. ” I quickly turned back around and said, “oh yeah, you can run through first base.” How embarrassing. To them I was just a dumb girl that didn’t know a thing about sports….well how sad that I supposedly do.

I told BJ what I did, and he definitely laughed at me ….what an I say.. Its this pregnant brain…its playing tricks on me!!!

Wow, I just looked at my baby ticker and can’t believe how the weeks are passing by so quickly. It seems like just yesterday that I came in and told BJ the news 🙂 And here we are almost at the end of the first trimester! Wow!

I remember when some friends of ours told us they were pregnant and they were 10 weeks, and now they have found out what they are having and are due in a few months. I can’t wait to know what we are having. We’ve been trying to think of names that we like, but haven’t gotten real serious about it yet.

I don’t have my first class today, because it is lab and I don’t have to go because I haven’t shot my pictures yet, so I can’t really develop what I don’t have. I like to go up to the lab at night though, because it isn’t crowded and I can take my time on my pictures. But not having to go to class is always nice. I wish I had that option in every class 🙂

The weather is gorgeous today and was yesterday too. It is hot, but there is a breeze in the air so it isn’t scorching. I love this time of the year. Bj cut the grass this weekend , and all the grass is green again, so it smelled so great. Spring is in the air! I love it.

I debuted my Mary Kay business this weekend. Actually my friend Kelly ran the whole show, but it was so fun. I had 7 people and a baby there and we had a nice girls night. They got to see the great products and I had $298 in sales 🙂 Whoo hoo!! Thanks everyone for coming and supporting me.

Afterward, I totally crashed. I still am not used to how much less engergy I am equipped with. I didn’t even really DO anything except sit there and hand things to people but just the hype of having the party and getting everything ready took it out of me. But it is getting less and less. I am feeling more and more myself again, energy wise.

Bj actually let me watch two chick flicks with him 🙂 It was so great. I didn’t even have to beg.
We also saw Million Dollar Baby which had a very surprising ending that I did not expect. But it was a good movie….I didn’t expect it to be emotional though…I thought it was going to be like Rocky girl-style.

I ordered my first bunch of maternity clothes today because I feel like I will be out of all of my waist fitted clothing very soon. My jeans and skirts have been my uniform lately. I’m glad I don’t have any presentations that I have to dress up for this semester, because my suit…HA, I don’t know if it will ever fit again 😦 Yes it will!! I will be tiny after I recover from my baby weight !!! I’m going back to high school size 🙂 That would be a miracle.

We are doing laundry now. It seems like we are always doing laundry. It is unending. I can’t imagine how much we will have when the kiddo starts blazing through clothes left and right.

Well today is my Mary Kay business debut. I’m really excited because it is going to be a fun girls night for my friends. My friend Kelly is going to come over and help run the debut, because I have never done a show before.

Last night I had BJ come to the grocery store with me because it was late and I didn’t feel so good. I had a list of approximately 10 things to get for my party plus milk and bread. Well over an hour later we left the store with a full cart and I was pooped. BJ wanted to go down every aisle and do full fledged shopping. AHHH!!!! This is why he isn’t allowed to go with me normally. We come out with way too much and it doesn’t last long enough. Anyway, I told him he is going to have to learn how to shop better since he will probably have to do it a few times before and after the baby comes. That nut 🙂

Well today a great thing happened. I had taken a test last week that I felt horrible about. I had studied but it was just one of those wierd ones that you don’t really know what in the world TO study. So I tried but I probably could have prepared more. Well, when I took the test, I felt my lack of effort biting me in the rear. I knew I hadn’t done my best but hoped for a miracle.

WELL, today I found out my grade and it was alot worse than I thought. I passed but, wow, I didn’t expect to do that horribly. So I started looking over my test and realized that I had not gotten 10 whole points that I had gotten right. Somehow the teacher had miscalculated my grade. WAS I RELIEVED!!! He was too, which I thought was cool. Most teachers don’t even know you much less know what your potential is for a grade. So I thought it was really cool that he cared that I had done better. He told me that he was hoping there was a good reason for my bad grade because he was surprised. Thank the Lord for teachers who care!!!

Now I am one step closer to graduating!!!! I can do it, I can do it!

PS. I must mention that I am happy that Luke and Lorelai got back together on Gilmore Girls 🙂 AND tonight is Newlyweds!! Get excited 🙂

Well the week is finally over and I’m glad….and pooped. Last night we didn’t feel like doing much, we being me and babe, so Bj and I went out and got Taco Bell for dinner and rented 3 movies. We saw Taxi, which was really funny; First Daughter, very cute; and Mr. 3000, which I wasn’t really interested in and fell asleep. Nice relaxing evening. Then I slept in until 10 today, that was wonderful!!!

So today I am on a mission of beginning the huge job of cleaning out the whole house while sorting, getting rid of and organizing everything. I want to be prepared for moving when it comes and I want to get everything organized while I have the chance before the baby comes. It is a huge project and I want to take it slowly, so I am starting now. So I have been working non-stop all morning, with the exception of Hoobie pouncing on me every two seconds. He is really delaying me….he needs a little pup sister to play with him when I can’t 🙂 I’ll have to work on BJ for that one. He claims that Hoobie is the last dog ever for our family…yeah right!!!!!!!! Not if I have anything to say about it.

Well back to work while I still have energy 🙂
Today I am 9 weeks!!! Seems like the time is flying by already.

Sorry I haven’t posted in a few days. I have been soooo exhausted and just bogged down by everything. This week was insane. It seemed like I had too many things due or to get done and definitely not enough hours in the day. I knew if I made it through yesterday I would be fine, but yesterday was a doozey. So finally it is Thursday, my week is almost over and I am so thankful.

We had a huge storm two nights ago and poor Hoobie was so scared and shaking all night long. It even hailed. I was afraid it would mess up the car but it wasn’t big enough. So being up half the night with Hoobie added to my exhausted week. Today I went to school and then came home and plunked myself down on the couch and didn’t move. I watched Speed and slept. It was heavenly.

I’ve been having some vivid crazy dreams these days. Its really wierd. They seem so real. I have no idea why but it may be from sheer exhaustion. Pretty interesting I might say. I actually had one dream about the baby. I actually saw it and everything. (It was a girl.)I can’t wait to see what it really looks like. It would be so wierd if it looked like it did in my dream. That actually happened to me once. I dreamed about a new lady that had started working at my dad’s office along time ago, but I had never met her or seen her. Well, when I did finally meet her, she looked exactly the same as in my dream. It totally freaked me out.

Well BJ is going up to the SLC to work out and I think I am going to piddle around the house. While I need to go work out, I feel like it would have absolutely no benefit for me whatsoever today since I have zero energy. I am just going to catch up on some much needed rest. (Baby agrees)
