19 weeks 1 day!

19 weeks...and this is where I am at. The weight has been fluctuating back and forth. Losing and gaining. Some days are better than others. Last week was MUCH better than week 17. Ugh how terrible. I just couldn't shake that headache! This week I feel alive, and well. Lots of Kickin and punching going on!! It's insane. I'de say it got strong last week for sure.

Today I ordered the baby's crib thanks to Sharon and Nani :) I LOVE it and hope its as great as it looks in the pictures. Overall this week has started off good. I am SO excited I swear like a little schoolgirl about surprising Andrew on Sat. I cant contain my smiles throughout the day. Words can't describe how much I miss him. I forgot what he sounds like!! I cannot wait to jump in his arms and tell him how much I've missed him. Ooo. the baby is kicking my bladder. he/she needs to stop that!! Anyways..last week went with Linds to get her new fabulous solara convertible I got jealous a little but I still love my truck. It's wonderful for what I need it for.

Well, theres tons to look forward to...I will be sure to update next week and say how amazing my surprise went!

18 Weeks and not really growing...

Happy Mother's Day!!--and 18 weeks. Let's see to me, I look exactly the same as 16 weeks. It doesnt help that I was wearing black shorts and a white bra in the picture and this week black shorts and a white shirt! Almost no change in the belly..Last week was a struggle, Went to doctor for on going headaches. They are still here...just gotta eat, drink and take some meds and press on. Kid is sucking the life out of me!

Not too much to say right now, mabe later on in the week. Andrew is coming home in 13 days. I cannot wait...

17 weeks....

So what is the best way to describe the way I rang in 17 weeks...??...Well needless to say I got virtually no sleep last night due to my constant stomach pains ( thanks to gas bubbles brewing in my diaphragm.) I tossed and turn all night after finally going to sleep after 11 I dreamt on and off about all the things currently stressing me in my life. The woman I have been in contact with has apparently fallen off the face of the earth and no longer answers her phone so she had me all upset this weekend. I woke up this am feeling totally crappy, ended up nearly passing out in formation and had to go home quickly to not feeling well. I got ready, ate something and felt better that the day would bring answers. I called the lady bright and early. sure enough NO ANSWER. So I call the main desk and the girl tells me that Ms Thomas is in today....I leave a message for her, and I hear NOTHING BACK. So I go to Chief and find out that he is on board to helping me leave early, gotta start paper work yadda yadda. But Cant do jack until the Army assigns Andrew somewhere. SO FINALLY he tells me to call Andrew's TAC. So I call him and telll him that my first sgt wants his first sgts number if we dont get answers by today. So he goes on a mission to find out what the deal is. Needless to say, he still is not reassigned but they are "pushing" for 3rd group. Whatever. I dont care where they are pushing just tell me where he is going!!! He said COB tomorrow. ...So guess what. Im calling his butt COB tomorrow if he doesnt call me. I got the papers ready to go...just waiting on finishing ONE SENTENCE " would like to accompany my husband as he PCS's to......._____________" yeah....so anyways. Had a headache all day, the stress is only going to get worse thru the week..got tons of running around to do tomorrow. Everyone says dont stress but I'm like....uh?...ok. then you take my life and I'll take yours and lets see how you do. Anyways thats all for now. 19 more days till Andrew comes home. I miss him. and Im falling asleep. maybe I'll actually sleep tonight. Im out..

16 weeks 2 Days

So here I am! Been awhile since I last wrote--So much to update....not enough time to do it. So..where are we at. Andrew got orders to Ft. Campbell, Basically sent our worlds crashing down for 2 days till we came to our senses made a decision that was not only for us but for our unborn child and on April 16th we got married :) You know it's funny, because its almost embarassing to tell people that I am re-married but at the same time I dont care because I want to tell them SOOO much just HOW IN LOVE I am with this man. I feel something with Andrew that I have never felt with anyone else in my entire life. He is gone away for a month right now for his final stage of training. Once "Robin Sage" is over so Is his training for SF as long as he passed...I am so proud of him and look up to him when it comes to this stuff. He may be going through hell right now, but being the one left behind isn't that peachy either! I am a wreck! I have never felt so lost until he left. I did bad when he was gone for a week! How am I going to last for a month??? There is so much going on that it keeps my mind occupied for about 30 sec then I think of him again...

Anyways, I will manage. I am waiting to hear on his assignment this week. hopefully it got changed to either colorado or staying at NC. From there I will start to work my move. I went to doctor today and all is well, scheduled the BIG ultrasound for 6 weeks from now, hoping that Andrew will be able to make it! June 8th. If not, I will have to keep pushing the date back. I hope its sooner than later!! I will be 22 weeks!! Holy smokes. Time is kinda flying ....well other then that ...Im lonely...I miss him...and love the guy to pieces. He keeps me sane that is for sure without I feel pretty darn useless, I am not gonna lie. Even just being able to talk to him on the phone keeps me together. Well that is the end of my sob story..more to come next week.

13 weeks

So what has week 13 brought me. ?? Well last week was VERY rough emotionally. I cried just about every night because I missed Andrew so bad. Just one big cry-baby!!

The mornings usually go well until I get hungry like usual. This morning started off rougher than usual. I did not wake up to my alarm because my phone was on vibrate so I was late for PT. Not a really big deal.--Went to PT, and since I was in a hurry didnt eat much. By the time I got back from PT I was so hungry that I began dry heaving. Well, only difference is this time I ended up throwing up all the water I had drank. On the kitchen floor. Egh....Not that great--I felt sick most of the morning and was falling asleep at my Stats class. I just can't wait till I feel AMAZING like I keep hearing about. Lets see what else, got a Pre-natal massage that felt awesome when it was happening but now my lower back is way worse off then it started.

Theres not much else to say other then the huge storm that came through last week flooded lots of peoples homes, I was worried a few times but all is well here. I noticed that last couple of days the water has slowly started to smell worse and worse. I finally called today and asked what had happened to the water. Come to find out the guy who puts Chlorine in the wells, his house flooded and he hadn't had a chance to put Chlorine in the water. So this makes me mad because, I pay a flat rate for these people to take care of the water and you cant just have someone else throw some chlorine in there? Give me the stuff! I'll do it! Geez. The water is like..the worst smell you can think of. Now, times that by a thousand for me.....I almost threw up in the shower this morning because I couldnt take the smell anymore. I havent smelt it since I got home but I hope its gotten better.

Well thats it for now--maybe this week will bring more fun things to write about.

12 weeks....

Ok so ...Today I want to start from the beginning because let me just say--Today has been quite humerous. Now mind you, I had a crappy weekend. Anything that can break, broke..anything that could possibly go wrong did...it just was never-ending. I no longer have the beautiful engagment ring. Andrew took it back. Long story short the place we got it was just bogus. He got his money back..and we are getting the ring here from the jeweler who pointed out to me that it was made wrong. Moving on.....So middle of the night last night I do my ritual of gettin up 2-3 times to pee...I noticed that my head hurts. like BAD. I wake up..and its still bad...I proceed to take the headache pills the doc prescribed and I head out to PT. Mind you, Andrew left me today...I did good and didnt get emotional he will be back Friday and I can talk to him then. But I am finding now that I miss him more then I thought I would. I digress....So I get to PT and realize that I almost feel high...Im like. um WTF? my face is tingling. So We start to form up for our formation and I jsut feel light headed and pukey...next thing I know Im bolting to the building and proceed to dry heave and spend the rest of reville on the floor of my building until I got enough strength to stand up. So I go home, and saw screw PT. I shower, eat and proceed to my appt. Let me just say:: My Mid-wife...AMAZING I love her. And funny thing, I was so emotional today that I liked her so much I wanted to cry and hug her...She answers all my dumb questions. Finds the heartbeat...tells me sounds great...we talk some more...and then I tell her about my morning from hell. She looks in my file...OH wow. seems that Dr. dumb dumb prescribed me CODINE???!!! Yeah no wonder you felt high? You were drugged...so she gave me better meds. not so druggy. and by 5 this evening it was finally gone! After a long day of feeling disgusting...and a terrible headache I feel human again. I divulged in some amazing Ramen Noodles...my new craving...But I just want to say one thing....12 weeks...second trimester. Everyone told me how amazing how I would feel. Um...I FEEL LIKE CRAPPPPP??!! My face is oily, Im EMOTIONAL ....like you have no idea. I cried because the dog groomer didnt show up and never called me. I cried to "chasing that neon rainbow" by Brooks and Dunn....yeah the list goes on. And I want to cry right now because I miss Andrew....Ugh. Im a mess.

Took my stats tests today. And I am sure I bombed that. When we went in we were all expecting to use our notes. and um...NOPE no notes. how bout tears came to my eyes and I wanted to get up and walk out. Talk about a wuss right? Hope I dont fail. I might threaten the teachers life..haha..

now I realize what my poor andrew has to deal with...well thats it for now. Enjoy the ever growing bump. Whether it looks like that or not. It's only after a full pizza pie that my gut looks like that....

Mucho Updates

So First off: This past weekend Andrew took me on a "surprise" trip to Florida. We arrived to Ponte Vedra Beach and pulled up to the Lodge & Club. This place...was just amazing...Fancy as it can get...Our room had 2 balconies overlooking the beach. We laid and watched the waves while they sun went down. Our bathroom had a jacuzzi that I couldnt enjoy because I cannot allow my body to heat up too much so I was careful. Andrew then told me around 9 at night that he had a surprised...we had the fireplace on and he had me sit in front of it. And....long story short He proposed to me. Wow, it was just amazing...I cried my eyes out. The ring...as you can see is the most gorgeous ring ever. It is a ring that I imagine superstars having. It's a Verragio band and he made the ring!

Anyways...it was just a lovely weekend and I couldnt have asked for anything better!!! I am SO IN LOVEEEEE..:)

Well 10 weeks came and went...nothing to report other than me getting fat. I am 11 weeks now and dont really feel pregnant. Hungry all the time and sleepy but thats it! no complaints just that I wish I was still with Andrew ....that is all for now. My next appt is Next week so I am sure I will have much to write then.
