My life is one big 2 week wait.

Ok So I might have posted about this before, but I need to post again. The biggest two week wait of my life was of course the one after my IUI. It's the time in which you must wait to test for a pregnancy. Everyone dreads that 2ww. But so it continues...
I now have 2 more weeks to wait til I find out the sex of baby. UHG the wait is horrid. I've officially had 3 dreams about baby girl, Dan has had 1, and we've had 3 very random friends that have had only girl dreams. Weird huh.
The other 2 week wait we have goin on is our stupid house situation. I wont go into detail, but basically that is the "time frame" we supposedly have to find out whether or not we are moving.
While I complain, I must say though that I am thankful that I have these things to complain about. It's times like these where I feel very blessed.

p.s. Good Luck, Rachel ( almost done with her BIG 2ww )

Ahhh I love this crib. I will never have it because it's $999 from Pottery Barn...but I'm in search of a knock off because I'm good like that :)

Some people...

So i was looking on craigslist like I always do in search of a deal. I came across a crib and the seller had this explanation of why she was selling it: " We are selling because we have found that our one year old prefers to sleep with my husband and I in our bed. "
I kinda just stared at the ad. Like, for reals? I had to really tell myself not to write this person asking her all sorts of questions like, uh do you know what you are setting yourself up for? If your child has this control over you at one year, do you really think it'll be easy to move them to a toddler bed? Plus, what child at age one has a "preference".Oh I could go on and on. Just had to share.

Not much new...

Well I did have an ultrasound last week but baby's legs were way deep down in my abdomen and wouldnt budge so of course no money shot. I was disappointed at first but then relieved because I would have hated to hear something like "well it's PROBABLY a..." or " But there's still a chance it's a ". So we go back on August 15 for our big ultrasound to get a for sure look :) The good news about that appt was that I was weighed and still haven't gained a pound.. which I am thrilled about even though I have a belly, things must be "evening out".
I am 17 weeks today and cant believe that a week from today I'll be in my 5th month! Geez.
I actually enjoyed those couple days of rain because I didn't feel bad for being inside and throwing up! haha

Dan has been busy with work. He's been charge nurse a few times, which is funny because they just kinda throw him into it and say go for it....which wasn't the original plan, but still nice for him.
He has a week off now so we are excited to just chill together.

Anxious

I just cannot put into words how excited I am. When I think about baby actually being here, I lose my mind. I am so ready.

Shout out to my girls...

This is to my buddies Rachel and Darleen and Christie who are always in my prayers.
Rachel is having her IUI soon and I'm praying that the Lord will give her strength and faith that this will be it!! We have never met but I adore her and so glad we can encourage eachother just via emails :) Rachel, more than anyone I want this for YOU.
Darleen is pregnant via her 2nd IUI and I am definately praying her through this, as her first baby didn't "stick" as we call it. I am soooo happy for you Darlene...and remember that the Lord doesnt want us to worry.
Christie I love ya girl and am praying for your move during your pregnancy! I am so excited for you and love to hear the thrill in your voice when you talk about your baby boy :) I am jealous that you are feeling kicks..as I cannot wait!!

On me : It's going to be like 100 degrees today and I plan on staying inside or going to my little blow up pool at my parents house. I feel fine when I'm doing things or being somewhat active outside..but if I stop...the baby and I disagree and I get sick. BUT i'm much better than I was 2 weeks ago ! I'll take it! I am 15 weeks 1 day
