A look back at 2003 Part 3

Please start with Part 1....

Looking back at this year I can see how much I have grown.  Through this year there have been many lessons.  Some I learned with grace and dignity...some I learned while kicking and screaming.  I have grown from a teenager to an adult.  I have had many great experiences and many horrible ones.  I have laughed, I have cried.  But thankfully I am still here breathing, learning, sharing, loving....I am still alive.  God has guided me through this year...and I know as 2004 comes He will still guide me.  Sometimes we will walk side by side....sometimes...He will have to carry me.  But I know with His strength...I will make it.  And I know that when our time is right we will be blessed with a beautiful and wonderful child....in His time.  So...I say goodbye to 2003 and look toward 2004 hoping and praying that it brings many wonderful times!  Happy New Year everyone!!!!!!!!

A look back at 2003 Part 2

If you are just joining us please start at Part 1 of my entry....

July came with a bang...literally....July 4th was a day of great excitement.  We had BBQ cookouts...swimming...fireworks......positive pregnancy tests...July 4th was the first time in my life that I really knew I was pregnant.  All the family was so excited. July was also Kent's 22nd birthay!  August came and the weeks flew by....all the way to August 23rd when we realized that I was miscarrying the baby.  August 25th came with a D&C and no longer were we pregnant.  Honestly...September and most of October are a blur to me.  I mostly remember crying and being seriously sad during those months.  But little did we know that November would bring big changes in our lives.  November was the month that I totally and fully gave my heart to God to be my Savior and Lord.  It also was the month that we got pregnant again.  We couldn't believe it.  December came with high hopes.  But ended in lost dreams.  December 15th we were told that we had miscarried again.  It was also the day that I had my second D&C.  Christmas came and Christmas went.  All in all it was a good Christmas...considering....

A look back at 2003 Part 1

A look back at 2003.....

The year for us started off as usual.  We were still in the trying to conceive mode, but weren't at the time so anxious for it to happen.  Valentine's Day we went on an over night trip to the Victoria.  The food was way out of our taste zones, but we still had a great time.  During March we celebrated a whole year of being together.  We ate our wedding cake from the year before...which honestly wasn't that bad.  During March, Kent started looking for a new job.  April came and Kent got an interview with the job he had applied for.  We were both very excited cause this new job meant that we would be more comfortable in our income.  May came with many things to do.  It was my birthday (May 13th) and I also graduated from college.  On May 19th, Kent started his new job.  June came with lots of changes.  Kent had to leave for 3 weeks to do training for his new job.  I moved back in with my parents for those 3 weeks.  Kent would come home on the weekends and see me.  June 19th is a day I will never forget.  My Mamaw died that day.  It was the first time that someone so close to me had passed away.  Little did we know that at the same time I was about 4 days pregnant.  I still miss her and she will forever be in my thoughts.  The funeral went great and soon we were back into a semi regular routine.

Two shaves and a Hair cut....

Hey everyone!!!!  It's 12:15 in the morning and no one is on for me to talk to.  I guess everyone is sleeping.  I wish I were sleepy....oh well.  In less than 10 hours I am getting a hair cut.  Probably only a trim.  I guess I will let my hair grow out a bit for the summer.  Thick curly hair doesn't do well in the summer time.  So, a trim it is.  After the hair cut I probably will go tan.  I don't know though...we'll see.  I'll probably do some cleaning around my house.  That will be a load of fun.  Once Kent gets off of work, we are going to go to the movies.  I believe we are watching "Cheaper by the Dozen".  It looks like a cute little movie.  I hope so!  I figure in the not too distant future we will be watching "Lord of the Ring 3".  I am actually wanting to watch it.  I guess so it will be finalized for me.  So I will know why in the world I watched the first two.  Not that they are bad movies...in fact they are pretty good movies...but they are soooo long.  And with my very low patience level it's hard for me to sit there and watch a 3 hour movie without thinking....is this ever going to end!?!?!!?  But for the most part the movies are great and I would recommend them to anyone to watch!  Well, I guess for the most part that is all.  My day today was pretty much like I wrote it yesterday.  I grocery shopped, tanned, washed clothes, cleaned....  Well everyone that is it!  Later Gator!

Fudge

I love fudge....it's soooo fatting though.  It's a shame too.  Oh well.  I can eat all of it I want until Jan. 1st.  One of my many New Year's goals.  I'm going to exercise and really stick with it.  I am going to start drinking more water.  I am going to try and lose some weight.  Not really weight...but get my body fat down a bit.  I am going to try and get pregnant and stay pregnant (not really in control of that...but God knows the desires of my heart).  And I am going to try and be more of a people person.  I hate being shy.  I truly am shy....as Kent says...you will talk to anybody....as long as they talk to you first.  I don't know why I am shy...but as long as I can remember I always was shy.  Hopefully...as I grow up  = o )  I will be more out going.  Oh well.  I have many other goals...but I just haven't thought of them yet.  But I always make goals for myself....and most of the time I stick with them...so hopefully all these will stick as well.  Well, that is all for today.  I have many things to do tomorrow....wash clothes....grocery shop...tan....you know...usual stuff...lol.  Later all!

The ending of 2003

Wow...where did 2003 go?  It seems like yesterday that 2003 was just starting.  It's amazing how time flies as you get older.  Oh well. 

My day today was pretty good.  My moma, daddy, and I all went to GA. to go shopping.  I had a lot of fun doing that.  I looooooveeeeeee shopping.  I got a lot of clothes for a lot less than I thought.  I may do some more shopping later.  I am waiting on someone to come to my house in a few minutes.  After that....shopping I go.  Tomorrow Kent's Granny is having a big family lunch with tons of people coming.  I'm a little stressed about it...but just like Christmas...I will manage.  I'm hoping all goes well with it though and that we all have a lot of fun.  The weather is supposed to be really nice.  So, that will be good.  Well, everyone...I really don't have much to say today.  So, I will talk with yall later!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Well, how was everyone's Christmas???  Mine was pretty good for the most part.  I got money and lotion and clothes today.  For the most part it was a good holiday.  At one place though...I had to go to the bathroom a couple of times to keep myself from crying...but for the most part...it was bareable.  I really don't have much to say...so I guess I will talk with everyone later!  MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Christmas Eve

Happy Christmas Eve!!!!  My Christmas Eve was soooo good!  My moma's side of the family did their Christmas tonight.  It went better then I thought.  I had a lot of fun.  I got some lotion and a beautiful ornament.  I also got a little change purse.  It is cute.  Then after that my parents and Jon Paul (my brother) and Ashley (his girlfriend) came over to my house.  We all exchanged presents.  I got clothes and gift cards.  Kent got clothes and a gift card.  It was great to have everyone together.  After the company left Kent and I exchanged our gifts.  I got a lot of neat things.  But my favorite would have to be two angels that Kent got me.  They each have a birthstone of each baby that we lost.  I wanted to cry.  But at the same time it made me feel so much better.  It's hard to explain.  It's almost like it's better cause now we have something to represent them even though they aren't with us.  Anyway, it was great.  Kent got from me clothes, a hat, and a drill...among other things. Even our little furbabies (cats) got some toys.  And some catnip.  They were very excited about that.  We took some pictures.  As soon as they get developed I'll post them on here.  It was really a great Christmas Eve.  Tomorrow we have tons of stuff to do.  I am a little anxious about two of the places we are going.  They each have a pregnant person at them.  I'm not looking forward to that.  But I believe I will manage and everything will be OK.  Atleast I hope so!  Well, everyone...just in case I don't get a chance before tomorrow...I want to wish everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

Early Entry

I'm journaling a bit early today.  I still have a lot of stuff to do and then later tonight Kent and I are going to a Christmas gathering.  So, I have no idea when I will be able to journal again today.  So, let me tell ya about my day so far.  I got up at 9:30 and watched some TV and then started cleaning my house.  It took me only about an hour to do everything.  There wasn't that much to do, because I did my BIG cleaning in November.  So today was just cleaning the counter tops and sweeping and dusting.  That sort of stuff.  Then, I washed/still washing....clothes.  I have one load left and it is in the dryer so that will soon be done.  I still have some gift wrapping to do and believe it or not I still have two more gifts to get.  I thought about going to Goody's and looking around.  They have a cute jogging suit there and they had it on sale.  So, I may go there in a bit...but who knows???  After the Christmas thingy tonight I have to go to the grocery store and get some things.  Milk, cookies, snacks.  That sort of stuff.  It wouldn't be Christmas with out baking some cookies!  Hoping later on tonight Kent will be up to go driving around looking at Christmas lights.  We haven't had a chance to do that yet.  I am so happy and excited that Kent will be off Christmas Eve and Christmas!!!!!  We didn't know if he would be or not.  But thankfully he is!!!  YAY!!!  Well, that is all for now.  I MAY have a chance to journal later!  We'll see!!!  Later all!!!!!!

Busy Day

Well, today was a very busy day.  It started at 5:30 this morning.  I got up and got ready to go to the doctor's.  I left here about 7:15 and got in B'ham at about 8:15....whew.  Just in time for my appointment.  He checked me over and said that everything was looking good.  I have to go back in a month or so and have like 5 tests ran.  Hopefully, we will find the problem if there is one.  Hopefully, everything will work out soon enough.  Although, I think it will be March before we offically start trying to conceive again.  But if something happens...well then it just does.  But we aren't going to try and make anything happen.  I honestly don't want to get pregnant again until I know everything is OK.  Well, after the doctor visit, I came home and Lesli and I chatted for a bit.  Then I talked with my daddy and ended up going to the mall with him to do Christmas shopping for my moma....he is such a last minute shopper!  Anywho...then after all that I came home.  I waited on Kent to get home and when he finally got home we went to go and get his hair cut and then BACK to the mall we go.  He had to take his shoes back.  They weren't wide enough!  We ended up not finding any others that fit.  I guess he will just save the money until we can find some that fit him.  After shopping, we went to see my moma and daddy.  I tanned while I was there.  After that we came home...where I am presently typing to yall.  Well, eveyone that is all for tonight!  I hope everyone has a good day tomorrow and hope everyone gets their shopping done in time!!!!!  Merry Early Christmas to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Sunday

Well, my Sunday was uneventful.  Nothing majored happened.  I went to Granny's and ate lunch and then chatted with everyone for a bit.  I came home and waited on Kent to get back from work.  My kidneys...or back...or whatever were/was....hurting me sooo bad.  So, I went to my parents and got in the tanning bed...it made me feel sooo much better.  Then Kent and I went to Wally World and got some stocking stuffers.  We ran into my brother in the parking lot and chatted with him for about 45 minutes or so.  Then we came home and ate supper.  Then we just sat around and watched TV.  Then Lesli called me and she decided to go to the doctor with me.  Which is cool.  I got Kent to call his mom for me to tell her that she didn't have to go with me to the doctor.  I was too chicken to call.  I didn't want her to hate me or something.  I still ended up talking with her for a few minutes.  She seemed cool with it all.  I hope she was.  I didn't want to hurt her feelings or anything.  I'm hoping I didn't.  I did want her to go...but at the same time I wanted Lesli to see St. Vincent's so she can maybe get some ideas if St. V's is where she might want to go...if she changed doctors...not saying she is...but if she wanted to.  I am proud of where I go...and think it's a great place for women to have babies at.  Oh well...enough of my mouth!  I'll chat with yall later  Oh and tomorrow is my doctor's appointment so yall keep me in your prayers!  Later gator!

My Saturday

Well, my Saturday has been a pretty easy going day.  I got up around 10:30 or so and ate some breakfast.  Then Kent and I just watched some TV and then we ordered some pizza.  After the pizza came....it took the delivery person almost an hour to get here....we ate and watched a movie that came on TV.  It was a pretty good movie...forgot though what it was called.  Well, after Kent left for work, I hate some supper....chicken and stars soup.  It was pretty good.  And healthy...  Then I cleaned my house.  Not really cleaned it clean, but more like straightened it up and stuff like that.  Then I took a shower....it felt so good to just stand in there and let the hot water hit my stomach......cramps, cramps, cramps.  So after the shower, I watched Trading Spaces and put a hot pad thingy on my tummy.  Now, I sit here typing and chatting with my daddy!  Well everyone...that is all for today!  Yall come back tomorrow!!!!

Cash or credit?

Well, Kent, my mom, my dad, and I went shopping tonight.  I had to take back some shoes I bought Kent cause they were too big...go figure.  And then I needed some blue jeans.  So, we go and get Kent a new pair of shoes...some New Balance.  And then we head to GAP.  Well, we walk in there and I grab a pair of jeans to go and try on.  Before I finish this story, I have to give those of you who don't know me very well some background on me.  I have a butt that is tiny, tiny, tiny.  So, I like to wear jeans that have flaps on the back pockets.  It makes my butt look a bit bigger.  Not that I am trying to show my butt off to people...I just think I look better that way.  ANYWAYS...back to my story.  So, I go in the dressing room and try on these jeans....people...you could have laid me down on the floor face first and ironed a shirt on my butt...cause those jeans made my butt look soooo flat!  So, I come out of the dressing room like OK..on to American Eagle.  So we go there.  I found a pair of jeans...on sale....and go and try them on.  They are pretty close...not perfect...but close...I'LL TAKE IT!  Then we head down to Martains to see if there are any jeans there.  Well, I try on these great LEVI jeans.  They were soooo perfect for my small booty!  But, the little roll that I have left over from the pregnancy (which as soon as I can exercise will be gone!) just hung over the jeans.  And I HATE that!!!!  So, I didn't get those.  But as soon as I lose some of this gut...I am going back!  For those of you thinking....dang you spend a lot of money on clothes.  Well, not really.  I clothes shop yes but it isn't all the time.  My husband...the wonderful man that he is...has let me splurge a little bit due to the situation we have currently been in.  Anyways, I am telling yall..by no means...are we falling deep into debt.  So yall can rest easy tonight!  Well, that is all for today.  I'll try and check back in tomorrow!!!!!!!

We're back Part Two

If you are just nowing joining us...start with part one of my story....

Well, we get to the place to eat and they sit us now by this window over looking the mountains.  It was so pretty!!!  So, we are sitting there and all of a sudden the wind starts blowing like crazy!  The people who work there are like whoa the wind is bad tonight!  So, the wind starts blowing really, really, really hard and bows the window in.  Kent...being afraid of heights to begin with....starts freaking out.  So, we finish our meal...which wasn't that good to begin with.....and leave.  Well, we get back to the cabin and watch TV and fall asleep.  Well, about 5:15 this morning I woke up (graphic material coming up) and I am covered in blood and laying in a puddle of blood.  I am like what in the world...so I go to the bathroom....and of course it was me.  Great.  So, I go and try to find something else to wear.  Well, Kent wakes up and is like what is wrong.  I am trying not to cry but really all I wanted to do was cry, cause I was thinking...I'm not supposed to even be having to go through this.  So, I tell him...I want to go home.  So we pack up and about 6ish we head home.  Well, I am thinking...the only thing left that could happen to us is falling slap off this mountain...thankfully we didn't.  We head to Wally World to get some extra long....extra thick pads.  Once home...my "flow" is regular.  All we get think of is that the elevation had something to do with it.  Oh well.  Now I sit here washing clothes and typing.  I'll talk with yall later!

We're back! Part One

We'll we are back.  Yes, it is like 8:45 in the morning and we are back.  It was to say the least an adventure.  Let me just start from the beginning.....

All day yesterday I just had a feeling this trip was going to be either a really good one or a really bad one.  I knew there was no in between.  So, we get there about 4:15 or so and get our keys to the cabin.  Well we start up the mountain and we can't find our cabin.  Well we finally find somebody who worked in the park and they took us to our cabin.  We get there and it's this beautiful cabin.  I would highly recommend it to anyone.  Anyways, we get in the cabin and after checking everything out Kent goes to the car to get our stuff.  About 30 seconds later we comes back and tells me he locked the keys in the car.  Well I thought well I got my keys in my purse.......my purse is in the car.......crap.  So, Kent goes back out there to try and pick the lock while I try and call someone to help us.  Well, no phone.  So, I go back out there and tell Kent.  Well, he comes back in and is like there isn't a phone????  So, we realize....whew....cell phone.  So get on it and call my dad...but he is still like a hour and away and the place where we wanted to eat closes at 8 and this was like 5 by now...and we still had to take showers and get ready.  So, Kent calls the front office and tells them the problem.  They call the park rangers who come out and spend like 45 mins trying to pick the lock to our car.  WOOHOO...they get it.  So, Kent thanks them and they are on their way.  We hurriedly(is that word?) get dressed to go eat.  Well, I try to open my car door (passenger side) and it won't open.  We are guessing due to the lock picking that our locks are now messed up.  So I have to enter and exit out of the driver's side.

Shopping helps...

Well, I just got back from the mall.  Shopping helped me cheer up a bit....maybe only for awhile or so.....but I'll take it.  I bought two bras from Victoria Secret, 2 sweaters from American Eagle, and some lotion from Bath and Body Works.  So, I feel a bit better.  Kent got a new playstation game is in there now playing it.  He feels better too...lol.

Tomorrow we are going on an over night trip to the moutains.  We got a cabin with a fireplace, a whirlpool tub,and a porch over looking the mountains with a swing on it.  We just needed to get away for a bit.  I'm looking forward to it.  I'll let yall know how it goes.  So, I probably won't have an entry for tomorrow so yall will just have to read this one reaaallll slllooowww.

Last night I found out one of my cousins is pregnant with her second baby.  I'm a little upset because the guy she is having it will is a weirdo with a captial W.  He doesn't take care of the kids he has.  He has one with another girl and then one girl with my cousin and now this new baby makes 3.  Oh well.  It's just hard sometimes to see why God allows things like this to happen.  I know there is a Big Picture out there and we just can't see it and everything has its purpose...but at the same time its hard for me a human with a worldly flesh to see the good in it all.  Oh well.  I guess that is all!  I'll talk with yall later!

Tuesday, December 16, 2003

The day after

Well, it's the first day after surgery and for the most part I am fine.  I have been more quiet with this miscarrage than the last one.  I guess the reason mostly is because I am talking to myself more this time.  The last time I wanted to talk with everyone else and see what they were thinking and what they thought about the whole situation.  This time, I am mostly asking myself all the questions and just talking with myself.  Which may help me get through this a little bit easier...if that is possible.  With this miscarriage I'm not so eager to have a conversation with people about it.  In fact, telling people this time has been the hardest part.  I just really don't want to talk about it.  I guess mostly because I talk to myself about it all day.  I looked up a website tonight at discoveryhealth and typed in blighted ovum.  It had some really good information on it.  If you are curious about what a blighted ovum is...just visit that site.  Well, I set an appointment for De. 22 at 8:15 in the morning to have my check-up after the D&C.  That is when we will start scheduling all the appointments for all the testing that will be done in January.  Yall please keep me in yours prayers.  Cause even now, I don't know how all this is going to play out.  I am hoping for the best, but trying not to get my hopes up like that last couple of times.  Well, that is all for now.  I'll talk with yall later!

In square one I stand

Well, I went for an ultrasound this morning. Found out my uterus was tilted backwards (whatever that means), the nurse said that wasn't anything to worry about. Well, we get in there and the lady is doing her thing and when she is done I go see my doctor. He tells me the one thing I never ever ever wanted to hear again..."You've miscarried." So, I cry and cry and cry. The doctor sets up a D&C for 1:30 pm. So we get there and my D&C is done and I come home and sleep. I honestly wish I could just sleep right through Christmas. My doctor though was really great. He was compassionate and he even called my house tonight to check up on me. He gave Kent his cell # just in case we need him. Which I thought was really nice. The surgery, I think, went better this time then the last. I am not bleeding near as much and I am in no pain. I go Monday for a check up. Then in January the doctor wants to start running tests to see why in the world this is happening to me.....again. Well, that is all. I'm hopefully going back to sleep...maybe I'll wake up around 10ish in the morning on Dec. 26th.

Pills, pills, pills

OOOOOK.  I have taken so many pills, I have lost count.  Four pills a day is where I am at now.  I know there are a lot of people out there to who take a lot more than that a day, but for me...it's a lot.  My prenatal vitamins are fine, but my progesterone pills are kicking my butt.  Once I take them I am useless for like 3 hours.  I hate taking them.  But in the long run they will be worth it I'm sure.  But right now they are making me sick.  I hope when I go to the doctor Monday that he will tell me that if my progesterone levels are up then I don't have to take them anymore.  Here's hoping!!!!  I'm looking forward to Monday though.  We hopefully will see a little heartbeat.  But we have to get up at like 5 in the morning.  We have to be there at 7:30 when they open and hopefully be "worked in" for an ultrasound.  My doctor appointment is at 11 so hopefully we will get in by then.  Let's all pray that I do!  Well, that's all for tonight!  I'll talk with yall later!!!

Tiny fingers, tiny toes

OH YEAH...my baby has fingers and toes!!!!  Well, they are forming as we speak.  If you go to my Babycount down page you will see all the developements that are going on right now.  The weeks so far have been going by some what fast.  I guess with all the doctor visits and all the holiday activities it just makes time go by a bit faster.  I know one thing, I am ready for this tiredness and feeling sick all the time to pass.  I just don't feel like me.  I feel like a lazy person who just sits around all day doing nothing.  Which is pretty much all I do...atleast these past couple of days.  Kent has been so good to me so far.  He helps wash the dishes and sometimes just tells me to go lay down and he'll do the dishes.  He has even cleaned the house for me.  He helps with the clothes when they are being washed.  He even tells me to go lay down on the couch and then brings me my pillow and some covers to take a nap with.  Every night before we go to sleep he kisses me and then kisses the baby.  He has been a really great husband to me through this pregnany.  I can't wait to see how he acts with the baby.  He'll be adorable!  Well, I guess that is all for tonight!  Yall feel free to leave comments.  I could love to know who is reading my stuff!  Later!

Blah

Blah....that's how I am feeling.  I am so happy to be pregnant but at the same time I just feel blah all the time.  No energy just laziness.  I haven't really "cleaned" my house in what feels like weeks.  Taking 4 pills a days makes me want to gag.  If you know anything about me you know that I am not a pill person.  I gag at even the though of a horse pill trying to slide down my throat!

On a more happy note, I went to the Christmas parade tonight.  It was pretty good.  It got me a little more in the spirit, but not that much.  Maybe when it gets closer I will be more in the mood.  We'll see.

I  have been thinking a lot about what kind of mother I will be.  I am so scared that I won't be a good mom.  I am scared that I won't be as involved as I would like.  Or that I will not bond with my children the way I would like to bond.  I am scared that my children won't love me as much as I want them to.  I have a lot of worries I guess about the whole parenting thing.  I guess only time will tell.  I'll talk with yall later!

Sorry no updates!

Sorry that it's been so long since an update.  I really haven't been on here that much lately.  The effects of being pregnant are taking their toll on me.  With the progesterone pills that I have been taking, I have to take a nap or something after or I will be dizzy for hours afterwards!  Plus, I am just so tired most of the time.  I am glad though that I am atleast having some symptoms this time around.  But at the same time, I am just ready for July to be here so we can have our little baby!!!  I did a due date calculator the other day, which I already know the due date that the doctor gave me but it only goes by your last period, this other goes by how many cycle days you have etc, etc.  Well, I put in there all the information that it wanted and the due date came back July 28th, 2004.  Which is Kent's birthday.  He was soooo excited.  He keeps telling me this baby will be born on his birthday.  I have a feeling it will be born like around July 14.  Well, see.  The baby will come when he/she gets good and ready I guess!  So far, I haven't really been in the Christmas spirit this year.  Everyone else around me is like this is the first year in a long time that they have been in the mood.  I guess the reason I haven't is because I am looking more towards July then Christmas.  But I am tring to get into the mood.  I am currently listening to Christmas music, so maybe that will help.  Well, I guess that is all for now.  I'll talk with yall later!

Baby names

OK.  So, I've had some people asked me if we have any names picked out for our up and coming baby in July.  Well of course we do!!!  For a little girl...Zoey Taylor.  If a little boy....Jonathan Kent Jr. but we will call him Jon Kent.  If by some weird chance (hush daddy) we have twins then the second girl name would be Landy something or another and a boy...well nothing so far for another boy name.  So, let's just think one baby for now.  If two are growing inside me...first you will have to pick me up off the floor cause I've fainted and then we can figure out names.  Haha. 

Well, for the most part today was blah.  I took a progesterone pill...and got dizzy...went and took a nap and felt better.  Besides that nothing really.  Straightened up the house a little bit and played on the internet.  Nothing exciting.  Kent is due home in about 30 mins or so.  Then he is going back into work at 7:30 in the morning.  And we get to spend Friday night together.  That is a first in a long time.  Well, I'll talk with yall later!  BYE!!!!

Nothing special

Well, nothing major has happened.  Just a couple of days closer to having this little life growing inside me.  The docotor told me that my progesterone was a little low so I have started taking progesterone pills to get my levels back where they need to be.  The pills make me dizzy though.  But they also help me sleep sooo much better.  I don't know why.  They just do.  Kent and I had our "monthly" date.  We try to have one date a month.  Where we get dressed up and we go for dinner and a movie.  We went to the mall and shopped and ate and watched a movie tonight.  We watched ELF.  It was a cute little movie.  Then we went to Wally World...and this is where I would like to thank my daddy....thanks daddy!  Kent bought a 8 foot or is it feet Santa Clause....yeah that's right.  So, thanks again my loving father!!!!  ::::::::::::::::::Sarcasm:::::::::::::::::::::  So, that will be up and running tomorrow.  Come by and take a peek!!!  It won't be hard to see.  Well, now we are home and I am or was helping Kent wrap a gift....he is so cute.  Well, I am off.  I'll talk with yall later!!!!!

Bored

I was just bored, so I decided to write in here for a bit.  I'm currently waiting on Kent to get home so we can go to bed.  I am so tired.  I really don't feel all that great either.  Kinda like when you are first starting to get the flu.  I hope it's not the flu...that means 9 times out of 10 the hospital for a preggo.  I just hope it's another sign of pregnancy and it passes soon!  Tomorrow will be a fun day of waiting by the phone.  I won't be able to get on the internet or go out shopping or whatever.  It's worth it to know that everything is OK, but at the same time it kind of ties me down for the day.  I guess I'll get some washing done and maybe some cleaning.  And maybe we'll get to finish decorating the inside and outside of our house for Christmas.  We were supposed to go to Wally World and get some decorations.  We'll see.  Hopefully the hospital will call early and give us the results so we can be free to do things tomorrow!  Well, enough chatting!!!  I'll talk with yall later!!!

Doctor Appointment Today

Well, I went to the doctor today.  They took some more blood and I will get the results to that tomorrow.  The doctor said that everything seems to be fine and that I am to come back in 2 weeks to have a sonogram done to see if we can see the heartbeat.  If we do then my doctor will refer us to someone who delivers.  I'm hoping and praying for a heartbeat!!!!

OK. So let me tell you what happened at the doctor's office.  It seems like everytime I go there I get all nervous and stuff.  Well, we get there today and I had to pee really badly, but couldn't cause I didn't know if they needed that for a test or something so I wait.  Well, then I start feeling sick so I start freaking out thinking I am going to get sick all over this office.  Well, they finally call me back there to a ROOM...so before going to a room I dash into the bathroom.  Well, a few minutes went by and I was still in there trying to make sure all was "done" (sorry, I'm trying not to give yall a mental pic of me being sick).  Well, I hear again...Emily please come to room 1.  Kent is sitting out in the waiting room wondering what happened to me...thinking I got lost or something.  So I finally make it to the room and the nurse was like are you OK...I was like I am now.....

Oh well, that was my day.  I am fixing to go sit under the tree and wrap gifts!!!  I'll talk with yall later!!!!
