10 on Tuesday

1. Can't believe it is Already June. Which is funny cause at the same time I mean FINALLY IT'S JUNE!!!!

2. 10 days and we will hopefully know if we are having a boy or girl.

3. We have yet to start the name game... I know pretty sad, but I figure it will be easier to figure it out when we know the gender.

4. Emotion are at an all time high in our family. So much going on with papa being sick and mom renting out the house, plus being pregnant. So far I have had several people tell me that I am just over reacting because I am pregnant. I know better. I also don't expect anyone to understand in any way shape or form. Please just continue to pray for our family.

5. So I have a horrible issue right now, I want to move, and get a new car. Currently neither one of those is even a possibility. Heck we can't afford the tires for my current car let alone a new car.

6. My motivation for spring cleaning is completely gone and I have yet to touch anything. Annoyed, but eventually I will get it done so we can have a yard sale.

7. Brodey's graduation is on Saturday June 11 at Memorial Field (I think 3pm) but everyone is invited. Then Sunday June 12 we are planning a Graduation Party at Mom's house (I think 3pm) and again everyone is invited.

8. So any guesses on the Gender of the baby? Heart beat has been 150's and was 148 last appointment May 10. I had morning sickness (which started in the evenings) and began around week 8 and lasted till week 14. And still basically anytime I brush my teeth (I miss my sonicare :( Not sure what other details would help. Oh also felt the baby last week (even though a few people have said no it's too early, but Dana said not to listen to them, So I'm not :)

9. My list of people I know that are pregnant is slowly dropping. It increased to 27 and is now down to 24 (One co-workers baby is 2 weeks old and she is back to work already :( He is adorable, but there is no way I would ever be able to go back that soon! I currently have short term disability and am so excited I thought I got up to 14 weeks, but I found out the other day I can have up to 26 weeks (that's 6 months!) That is very exciting to me, especially since Dr. has already said he wants to do a Cesarean because of my stroke, but I prefer not. As long as I keep my blood pressure down and baby is safe he may let me proceed as normal.

10. My initial thoughts when I found out I was pregnant was girl. Mike REALLYwants a boy. I am now kinda leaning towards a boy. The kids were telling me the other day they want a girl and Drew wants a Dirl, even though I keep trying to convince him that a boy would be way more fun. I am in all reality don't care just healthy, happy baby.

Bonus- Watched the race Sunday afternoon at A.J.'s house. Charlotte started saying "Go Jr" (she heard it probably 500 times between A.J. and Mike) Drew on the other hand is a "Beg Biffle" fan and was so sad when he found out he didn't win. So cute they have picked their favorites already, Guess that's what happens when you grow up in a racing family:) {and by the way I totally love the the way Drew says some of his words :) He says dirl and I used to say Giwl-I couldn't pronounce the letter "R"}

10 on Thursday - Randomness -

1. I am finally feeling Peachy (This weeks fruit comparison is a peach so I had to do it :). Actually I happen to be home today with a cold (yet again) and a horrible headache (nerve stimulator isn't so cooperative lately and therefore been getting lots of headaches :(

2. Last night I tried to convince Mike's mom that we are not finding out the babies sex... which didn't work. Mike wants to know way to bad to wait, pretty sure he wants to know worse than I do. (He REALLY REALLY REALLY wants a boy!)

3. My belly is starting to get hard (under the flab of course). I also have lost 10 lbs in the last few weeks, although the puking was horrible I like loosing weight! Dr. says its fine for me to lose weight, just not a lot at once or by any unhealthy diets.

4. Work has been kind of stressful. Lots of nagging and nit picking, since our store is so slow it's a lot easier for management to nit pick. It gets annoying and frustrating, but lucky for me I for the most part just let it roll off my back.

5. Speaking of work I have 2 dents and on good size scratch (plus one I had removed a few years ago)on my car all of which have come from WALMART parking lots! 1 from Ponderay store (1st one), 1 from Post Falls Store (#2,the biggest one), 2 from West Point/Stateline store (#3 & 4 in the last 4 months). Makes me so mad that people are so inconsiderate! I watched the lady drive off yesterday, she looked very nervous when she saw me looking at my bumper (she was looking as I was getting off work). Not really worth pursuing being it's a scratch but I should probably check and find out if they have video footage at work just in case.

6. I really wish Mike and I had our own computer and printer and all that jazz so I could actually do something with my pictures other than just sit there on my SD cards for long periods at a time (like a year!).

7. I am seriously considering writing a book called "The things people DON'T tell you about being pregnant." It amazes me how quickly I go from feeling great to pure misery... NO that doesn't mean I am not enjoying being pregnant, I just never knew ones body could do certain things without having some sort of virus or flu.

8. On that note I now know 22 People pregnant due between May and December! I find it funny, but being that most of us are in our mid to late 20's and those that have finished college and gotten married and are ready to start a family it only makes sense why so many are pregnant.

9. Really hoping that the weather will change soon, the cold and rain and then sun and warmth are so hard for my sinuses to get used to. I have had far too many sinus infections through the winter. Dr. says if you are prone to having sinus infections being pregnant only increases the chances.

10. Going to the Dr. Next week, Hopefully by then he will be able to tell us exactly when we can have our ultra sound to find out the sex... then we can all start shopping (me mainly from the clearance rack of course :)

Bonus- We are on a very tight budget and therefore unable to get our moms a big expensive gift, but I think what we are going to do will be far more special... Or at least I hope it is!
