Looking back, it was a pretty good year. This time last year, there were some rough things going on. During Christmas 2009, my mom was very sick. It was the scariest time of my life. We got through it, and she is now doing better. At the same time, we were told we might not be able to have kids. Obiviously, that was a wrong diagnosis. To ease the ( Read more... )

Dear Lord, can this kid GET much bigger ( Read more... )

First off, sorry for not writing sooner-my desk top is dying and I keep forgetting that I have a laptop ( Read more... )

Are you kidding me?! I still have two more months of this??!!! First off-I don't think I can sweat anymore. My hair has been matted to my head more than a pre-teen learning how to take showers every day! Everything is big. And when I think it can't get much bigger-it does ( Read more... )

About two weeks ago, I got news that my friend Pat passed away from complications with diabetes. I was on the phone with my mom when Stumpy texted me "did you know Pat died?" I stared at the message for a second-and burst into sobs. My mom didn't know what was going on, and I was very quickly incapable of speaking ( Read more... )

There are so many things people failed to mention to me about being pregnant. What is up with this heartburn? It's a daily thing, and it gets worse throughout the day. I literally eat a pack of Tums each week! What makes it all crappy is that I am craving chocolate right now-but guess what?--it gives me heartburn ( Read more... )

So we came back from Fort Lauderdale on...Weds. It kinda sucked coming back in the middle of the week-because we both had to jump right back into work. E went back that very night-which was insane-and I headed back first thing in the morning. But, the beauty of it was that I worked two days-and then it was Friday. Pretty sweet. Next week will be ( Read more... )

Since Saturday, I have been miserable. I woke up Saturday morning, walked downstairs, turned on the AC, laid on the sofa, and went back to sleep. I got up a little later, went to the TV room, laid down, and fell asleep. Around 6 pm, I finally got it together, got a shower and got ready for my friend's party. E and I went to the party, and had a ( Read more... )

So today was the day! E and I were so excited, neither of us could sleep last night. I ended up crashing around 1:30, E around 2:00. I woke up because my teaching partner called me. At first, I freaked out thinking that my sub didn't show up. We were holding our class picnic later that day, and she worried we needed more stuff, so she said she was ( Read more... )

I totally quit my gym membership today. I have not been since I got pregnant, being totally freaked out that my clutziness would cause a catastrophe on a treadmill. Of course, everyone had their advice on this subject ( Read more... )
