Cindy

Cindy, I'm just going to make this a letter to YOU!! We've got internet at our place now so here I am, naked, trying to find some news in the Saturday Morning Cartoon mess, blogging! It's awesome! I've made it a goal of mine to blog everyday! Probably won't happen but a girl can dream....(sigh) I worked my butt off yesterday!!!! Woke up, did my exercises, went to babysit Blake, ran around with him for a while, sat around a bit, got home, did another round of my exercises, ate a plate of tomatoes and a slice of bread, ran around with Shane and then passed out to go to sleep. Somewhere in there I also ran to town, deposited Shane's check, bought him some lunch and took it to the field. All in all a pretty good day. So to start out this morning, I'm going to work out, (just saw that Shane DID NOT take the garbage with him like he said he would...) wash and fold a load of clothes, do a run through with the vacuum, load the dishwasher, (LOVE IT) and then see if Sheila needs me with Blake.

Not that you really wanted a whole run-through of my day, Haha!

So, today I'm feeling pretty good! I have only gagged about 4 times with nothing coming up. Haven't eaten yet so that's probably going to change things! I have started to notice little differences in my body. Wanna hear em?
1.) My nipples and the part around them are HUGE and ITCHY now.
2.) Not only am I constipated, it hurts when I TRY!!!
3.) My favorite; THE GAS!!! I mean, you know me Cindy, I have ALWAYS been gassy, but now it's like I have the green light to blow anytime, all the time! It's super embarrassing! And from what I hear, it only gets worse!
4.) I am super clumsy! I read that that happens when your belly gets bigger and your center of gravity moves out from the center of your body into your belly. I already started out with a belly, so maybe it's already started moving? Weird!
And 5.) Every single part of my body seems to be getting larger, while the most important part, my BLADDER, seems to be getting smaller! Where is the justice in that???

So, as I'm trying to be "super-happy-positive-prego-lady" all I can think is, This Sucks! Lani actually rebuked me the other day. She was like, "Wow Jess, all the time you hear pregnant women talk about 'glowing' and all you can talk about is 'bloating'!" Sorry Lani, but I gotta give it to ya straight! To be pregnant for me right now is awesome! A miracle, a blessing, the most amazing thing that is happening in mine and Shane's lives right now! And it kinda sucks most of the time! But maybe b/c I'm in the first tri. They say once in the second it gets to where you don't even feel prego. Man I hope so! What I wouldn't give to not have itchy boobs, bloating, leaking of strange juices, gas, and all that crap! You hear cheery prego lady's all the time talking about what a joy it is and be thankful for every moment. But I'm sorry, when I gotta stick my head in the same place my hubby just had his a** and empty the contents of my stomach, I'm not that thankful! But I'll try harder....

I'm sorry, I feel like my life revolves around being prego. I love it and I hate it! I know it'll be even crazier when I have the baby. But I don't so it shouldn't be like this now. All I can talk about with people is how I'm feeling and if I'm getting a room ready and all that. I feel like crap most of the time and no, I didn't have my own room til I was, what? 16? (I'm just talking, of course we're gonna get the room ready) But it's funny to see the way people react. Especially out here. Sometimes I feel like I shock the heck outta people and they don't know how to take me! (It's called sarcasm people, try it!) My hubby is really good at it!

Ok, see, no more baby talk.

I am really excited to come home for the holidays! I'm not sure what all we're going to do but I know we're going to have FUN FUN FUN!!!! I'm not showing yet and I doubt I will be by the time we get home but everyone is asking! (Crap! See, I did it again!!!! It's like a disease!!!) Ok, no more! Anyways, Shane already knows what he wants to get the girls. I've told Mom, and I would say what it is but I won't on the off chance they might actually read my blog. Which they never do unless I call and tell them to! Everybody wants us to bring potatoes and I think we might bring a few but we can't get everyone a 10lbs bag for Christmas! I mean, what about clothes! Seriously! Love to but it ain't gonna happen! Besides, if we brought home potatoes for everyone, we could clean out one of the cellars!!!!

It's starting to get colder here, in between that days that it's over 80 degrees! HA!

I'm super rambling! But I wanted to make sure and post something so that you could read it Cindy! And by the way, my phone number is 208-681-9064. What is yours??? Or is it the same number, different phone? Your daughter is like the cutest thing in the world! I hope our baby is cute too. Is it ok to worry about that?! I don't want the baby to inherit mine and Shane's monster huge heads...for obvious reasons. And I want the baby to be pretty! All I can do is look at what a stud Shane is and listen to him when he says I'm beautiful and hope! Haha! What I should be hoping for is a healthy baby and nothing else. Why should I be so selfish!? Oh well, it's human nature to always want! Trying to get better at that! Ha! I love you Cindy! You better leave more posts on your blog too!!!! Believe it or not, I check yours everyday! But now that I have internet at home, I'm going to be blogging everyday too! Hopefully.....
