Happy Thanksgiving!

We ate at the parentals' today.  It was delicious and I loved spending time with the family.  The pups haven't gotten along with Cassie yet, so we've kept them in the bedroom.  Maybe it'll work out the next time we're here.....  Anyway, sorry to post and run.  But Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Little Sis and I hung out!

We had a great time!  She was so excited to see me.  We went bowling, and I won.  (Only because of the bumpers).  We then went to Wendy's to get some frosty's.  They were yummy!  She was on sugar overload by the end of the night, but I think she was pretty satisfied with our outing.  It was so much fun!  <3

I met my little

I got to meet my Little Sister today from BBBS.  She is really sweet.  She's a bit standoff-ish, and shy.  But I'll hope to have her out of that, so she can be comfortable with me.  The other big is pretty cool.  My LS is the older one, and she is really smart.  She's at the top of her class, which is awesome!  I can't wait to start planning activities to do with her. 

Sitting at home thinking

My mind seems to be running away with itself this morning.  I don't know how many miscarriage stories I can read on my birth month board before becoming really unsure.  I want my ultrasound next week, so I can see my little jelly bean.  I don't want to worry my entire pregnancy.  I want to remember that I am pregnant, happy and healthy.  (Well attempting to be healthy).  I'm home sick today, and thankfully did not have to sub.  As an extra precaution I went ahead and called out of my after care job.  I need to give myself a full day of rest.  So here I am, putting a permanent mark on the couch for the day.  I have a Tebow snuggled up next to me.  I can tell winter is coming because he is carrying tons of static electricity.  

We got tons of trick or treaters last night.  It's not as much as I thought there would be, and we have tons of candy left over.  I will have to refrain from going to the candy bowl.  We tell Matt's mom tomorrow.  I've been wishing and praying for Friday and Saturday to hurry up.  And here we are, they're just about here.  I'm nervous about telling his mom.  I'm sure she'll be really happy.  I just don't want her to be giving lots of opinions from down south.  

I've also started wondering if I'm gaining too much weight.  I know that I am, but its hard being constantly hungry.  I can't take any appetite suppressants now.  (DUH).  But I didn't think it would be this hard.  I feel like I'm fighting with myself, because I don't know if it's being pregnant.  Or if it's the fat person in me.  Hell, the fat girl that's showing her true self right now.  Anyway, off that tangent.  I'm just ready to get rid of this stupid cold.  I really need a flu shot, but I can't get it until 2nd tri.  5-6 more weeks and I can hopefully get some relief from all the kiddie germs.  Until then, I'll continue to feel miserable.

Sticking out to me right now

Well I just heard the news today It seems my life is gonna change I closed my eyes, begin to pray Then tears of joy stream down my face
With arms wide open under the sunlight Welcome to this place I'll show you everything With arms wide open With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready To be the man I have to be I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side We stand in awe, we've created life
With arms wide open under the sunlight Welcome to this place I'll show you everything With arms wide open now everything has changed I'll show you love I'll show you everything
With arms wide open With arms wide open I'll show you everything, aw yeah With arms wide open, wide open
If I had just one wish only one demand I hope he's not like me, I hope he understands That he can take this life and hold it by the hand And he can greet the world with arms wide open
With arms wide open under the sunlight Welcome to this place I'll show you everything With arms wide open now everything has changed I'll show you love I'll show you everything
With arms wide open With arms wide open I'll show you everything, aw yeah With arms wide open Wide open

Countdown continues...

4 days until we can tell my parents.  It's so hard to keep it from them!  We talk every day (well Mom & I do), and I couldn't just stop talking to them for like 4 weeks, lol.  It is annoying when they ask What's new?  And I'm having to hold in the biggest secret of my life.  We get to tell Matt's mom in 3 days.  She will be told first since we can't tell her in person.  We get to Skype with her, and watch as she opens the gift.  Hopefully, it'll be a great reaction.  Matt's really nervous to tell my parents.  Kind of the "Hey, I boink your daughter, and she's pregnant."  (I tell him it's foolish, since we're married and have been trying).  I can't help how he feels though.  This week needs to hurry up already!

Halloween Carnival fun!

We had a blast today, and she was so much fun!  She had her first donut.  (She ate an entire regular sized donut).  Can we say worst babysitter of the year?  At least in her eyes, I'm awesome!  Here are some pics!
