Braxton Hicks Marks my halfway point

Wow…I didn’t know you could get those so early but you can. The last two days I have had them a few times, so I called my doctor cuz I was a little concerned, and because my mom didn’t think I could get these at 5 months. Well sure enough you can, starting at 18 weeks. So, basically I have been stressing out too much. (Go figure) And the only thing to do is cool it. So I am…as much as I can and then after this week, I will be significantly less stressed 🙂 The wierd thing is that I’m not really stressed, I just have a lot going on, which is normal for me, and since I feel so good being pregnant, its hard for me to know when I have overdone it until its actually to that point and then I regret it. So, I’m taking it easy I promise. Don’t everyone start panicking, believe me, I don’t want to endanger my child. I have also taking a growth spurt recently and I think that has added to the physical tension on my body.

Today is the halfway point of my pregnancy. It has been such a breeze. I love it. Only 5 more days until we find out what the little cutesie is. Yesterday I broke down and bought an outfit from Baby Gap. It is adorable. I love it and can’t wait to put it on my new baby when it comes.

On that note…Melissa is having Carson today!!!! She went in at 7 for potossin. The little guy is going to be a big guy so they didn’t want him to grow too much more on the inside of his mommy, so they are getting that dude out today 🙂 Keep her in your prayers today. I talked with her earlier and she is nervously excited 🙂 We are praying for you Mel!!! For a quick and smoothe delivery and a healthy momma and son. (And for you too Cary. )

Well tomorrow is Graduation. WOW! Still doesn’t seem real. Even though my grades have all been posted and it is offical, it still seems wierd. sigh………… But I can get used to this no going to school thing in a heartbeat.

Well there is work to be done and food to be eaten by me, so have a wonderful day my blogger friends and I will see you or talk to you all soon!!!

First day of grown-up-ville

Well today is our first official day of being finished with school. It is a great feeling. We have been doing errands all day getting ready for the big weekend. We have friends and family coming down Friday and Saturday. It is going to be a great time to see everyone and celebrate. I sure hope the weather holds off and lets us have a nice weekend.

Last night I went to Target to get a few things and saw Melissa and Cary and her mom. Poor thing, she is ready to have that baby! COme on Carson, we are all waiting for you, expecially your parents!!! Tomorrow is her due date, so maybe Carson is just going to be a timely person and always be right on time 🙂

I also got my nails done yesterday. THey were so long that I didn’t even have to get tips put on. They just painted my actual nail and then put acrylic on the top. It was pretty cool. My nails look really nice and they are actually mine!!! It was nice to get pampered after four long years of hard college.

Today I am going to get my hair cut and my ears re-pierced. They have recently closed up again and so its annoying that I can’t wear earrings, so I”m getting them pierced again. And this time I will be good and wear earrings all the time.

Then tonight we are having a birthday party for BJ at Olive Garden!! Whoohoo. Tell me if your coming. It starts at 7:30! That’s good eating 🙂 I have to go get his presents because since his birthday was right inthe middle of finals he got jipped and I only got him one cheesy t-shirt. It will be fun though to hang out with everyone.

So Baby is moving so much now, but its always right when I am going to sleep. UGH! I want the days and nights not to be reveresed so I always tell him/her that its time to go to sleep 🙂 Like that works right! Only one more week till we will know whether it is a he or a she. I can’t wait!!

Well I’m off to run more errands. Ta ta!

I’ve officially earned my bachelors degree!!!!!!!

FREE FREE I’M FREE AT LAST, THANK GOD ALMIGHTY I’M FREE AT LAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am finished forever!!!!!!!!!! YIPEE!!!! My final was so easy and I was glad because I started getting a little worried when I went in there. Oh well. Its over now. BJ is still in his but he will be out soon. I can’t believe this moment is finally here. It doesn’t seem quite real yet.

LAST FINAL TO GO!

LAST FINAL EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! Whahhhooooo…………..today is my last final at 2pm. I am so so so so relieved. Bj’s is at the exact same time so we will finish together. Last night we were both so wired that we couldn’t sleep. It was like 2 am and we were still both wide awake & talking. So bj is taking a power nap real quick and I am reviewing over my material. Wow, I still can’t believe today I will take my last final ever and never again return!!!!!!!!!! YEHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Good luck to everyone else out there taking finals today!!

HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY HUBBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
&

Happy Mother’s Day to every mother out there!!! What would we do without you ?????????

Today was Bj’s 23rd birthday as well as mother’s day. We had a nice time this morning laying in bed listening to the rain and talking. We always talk in bed on Sunday’s. Its great! Then we went to church and then to lunch. We tried to go to Cracker Barrell, but the wait was 1 hour, and everything else was packed out as well, so we had to resort to Luby’s. I like Luby’s but not really the place you want to spend your birthday. Oh well. Seems like every year we go to a wierd place for Bj’s birthday. One year we went to this podunk place called the Weathervain, in Buffalo. It was halfway so his parents could meet us, and the only thing in sight. It was a memory. Then I took him to Marie Callendar’s one year, because we had never been there. Ha ha….sort of an older crowd but funny and memorable. Then we went to Chucky Cheese’s the next year, at his request. Still not our age range. So this year of course we had to follow suit and go to Luby’s. Next year I think I will just take him to a nursing home cafeteria. Seems like that is the direction we are heading.
Tonight we went to our second to last lifegroup ever. It is getting very sad. I hate to think that our whole life is about to be uprooted and changed. Its very wierd to think that every aspect in our life is about to change. It will be good, just wierd. We will miss the memories we leave behind here and the friendships that have become so dear to our hearts.
Tomorrow I have my second to last final ever!! I can’t believe it is 5 days until graduation. That is so cool. It hasn’t really sunk in yet, and I don’t know that it will for a while. But needless to say I am very excited as is BJ.
I am off to study! Night night

He felt it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YaY! The baby just started moving a ton so I looked at my belly and SAW it move. So BJ came in and put his hand on and waited and he FELT IT MOVE 🙂 He was excited. Finally, its been 5 weeks since I have started feeling it so I was really ready for bj to get to share the excitement with me 🙂 Hello in there you little mover!

Nearly Half way Baked

I feel like I have been hit by a truck. Ugh. I woke up yesterday and today feeling soooooo tired. Not sleepy like I needed more, just exhausted. This is not good. I think my body is letting down on me too early! I still have three finals left dont fail me yet!

Well today I am starting my 20th week of pregnancy. That is too cool, because that means on Friday I will be HALF WAY FINISHED!!! Yipeeeeee!!!!!! That is so amazing to me. I’m still not showing that much, which is fine because maybe that means that I won’t be mammoth by the end. Oh and Have I mentioned that the baby is a psycho in there 🙂 Wow, it just moves and moves all day long. I guess it got my genes 😉 Like tara always says, my child will have spiked hair and eat grass and go crazy and bj’s child will take a checkbook to kindergarden. Hee hee. I can’t wait to meet the little psycho and see if it really is like its mamma.

Well moving is coming along so slowly. I got a total of one box packed yesterday. At this rate we should be able to move by the time the babe goes into kindergarden. Yuck, I just hate moving. I like the idea of it, but the actual thing of it, yuck.

I have my second final today. My retail final. The good thing is it isn’t cumulative. It is only over 3 chapters. So I am going to be studying for that today. BJ is in his second final right now. Its his forensics class. I called stuff out to him last night and those tests are ridiculous. I could barely understand the words I was saying to him, much less understand what they wanted to know. Wow. Good luck man!!

8 days until graduation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First one down…..three more till DIPLOMA!

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!

Well I went and took my first final. It was sort of hard, I think I was unsure on 5 questions. But I did good enough to pass the class so that is good. Anywho, so I have another one tomorrow. Yuck. I hate finals..have I mentioned that yet. Ugh, especially cumulative finals.

Anyway, wish me luck tomorrow 🙂 I think I will go pack a little. ta ta!

Studying stinks

I hate studying. Ugh!!! I have been working on a review sheet for hours now and now that it is finished I can study it. Yuck. I have my first final tomorrow and am glad sort of because I am just ready to get all these tests over with. I have good grades in all my classes so I know my finals won’t hurt me, but I just hate tests. YUCK YUCK YUCK!!!

I got my first grade back today and made a B+ in my photojournalism class. I was sort of bummed because I thought I was going to make an A. But oh well. No biggie. I liked the class and learned alot of cool stuff for how to take pictures later on.

This morning we both wanted kolaches/donuts. So we got up and drove to Shipleys. Well since we slept til 10 then got up and got dressed and then went and ran some errands, it was already past 11:30 and Shipley’s closes. I never realized this in all my life. So, we went to a few other donut places and could not find one with kolaches, which is what BJ wanted. I just wanted a donut. So finally we found a coffee shop, Cafe Hause, that had Shipley’s donuts in it, but still not kolaches. So poor BJ just settled on going to Dairy Queen for some lunch and I got my donuts and Dairy Queen 🙂 The joys of pregnancy.

Well today the babe has been moving so much again. I tell you this child never sleeps hardly. It moves all day long. But the good thing, is I’ve never felt it move in the night, so maybe it has its nights and days right 🙂 That would be wonderful!!!

Well I guess I will go on to more studying. Ho hum……………………..
