Hodge Podge of Info

Well, in less than a month I will be married and in about 5 months I will have a little mini me. I can't believe that time is passing so fast. The last couple days this kid has been super active. I was surprised how active it was yesterday. From like 5pm on it was in constant kick mode! Except when I put my hand on my belly it stops...as i type right now i am being kicked! lol When I am standing my belly button is almost flat...agh this means I will probably have an outtie! :/ I finally took my belly button ring out so that it doens't get all yucky.

Even with everything going on it has yet to become stressful! Thank goodness.

My Bridal shower was amzing! I got lots of nice stuff...even a naughty gift bag of stuff! Both of my bridesmaids were able to be there.

My cousin's twins are super adorable. Madie looks like here mama and Micah has small little features. He looks like a little doll. My cousin is recovering, but it is a long road ahead. They say it will be many months until she is back to normal. Her thigh is about 10 times the size of her otehr tigh! :(

Well, that is all for now...oh we find out what the baby is on monday at 245pm. Don't forget to vote!

GO VOTE...IT's your RIGHT

Go VOTE on waht you think my little Turkey will be!!! We find out Monday June 22nd...let's see who has a sixth sense!

Let's catch you up some!

Well, I wont lie this year has kicked off to be a doozy. Jerrod and I got back together, but it was never the same as last time. He changed somewhere along the line for the better. Very shortly after getting back together we were talking about weddings, or shall I say he brought up the word wedding. It was much to my surprise! I welcomed it. He was/is the one who has had my heart.

Valentine's Day:
Jerrod NEVER was a gift giver in our relationship in the past. So, when he was so excited about the upcoming relationship holiday, I was overwhelmed. I had to work that morning at 0530. I got up to Port Hueneme and we went to dinner with the neighbors, Harley and Dave. It was amazing! We had lobester, crab, shrimp, and steak! Other sides as well, but you know the works! We then went over to the VFW. It was actually a lot of fun. Jerrod and I danced our first dance that night. Pat sang for us Willie Nelson, "Always on my Mind". We then went home and he gave me my giftS! It was amazing!

Over the next few weeks it was all so normal. Weekends with him and weekdays away. I had a Roller Derby game on March 7th. That whole week I was feeling a little ill. I figured I had the flu. The following Saturday, March 14th, while on the phone with kari I decided to take a pregnancy test...well it came back very positive. From there it has been a whirl wind. Jerrod was very calm about the whole thing, even had some jokes. He made me comfortable with what was going on. He was in 29 Palms and not going to be home for some time. We called his family and let them know. They all were excited. (First grandbaby for them)

So, by my calculations of a LMP: 2/14/09 this little bundle of joy would be born near 11/21/09.

Now we have this bundle of joy on the way. Jerrod and I decided it would be best to get married before the baby was here. So we set a July 11th wedding date. We needed a ring! lol On April 11th we went to Kay's Jewelers and he bought my ring...I didn't get to be there, he put prego in the food court! lol I was somewhat disappointed when he didn't come back with my ring! Well, the following week it was supposed to ready for pick up....he went and came home and said it was not ready :( So, saturday the 18th when I thought I would have a ring I did not...I guess I have waited this long for it I could wait a little longer. We went to a VCDD (Ventura County Roller Derby) bout. Sunday morning he woke up early and I stayed in bed a little longer. I was in and out of sleep when I could feel someone starring at me. So, I opened my eyes and there was my Jerrod down on one knee with a ring in his hand. So, I was clearly surprised! (Now I am a drooler and always have sleepy sand in my eyes!) I wiped it all away and he asked, "Well?" I shook my head and saud, "Yes!"

Like I said Whirl Wind of a Year!

Now we are 17 weeks and 4 days pregnant....

My pregnancy has had it's ups and downs thus far...I have had a rough battle with morning sickness...which I thought we were over till yesterday...but hey one day in a week isn't bad! Then on Tuesday 6/9/09 I got up for work at 0430 and noticed I had started spotting! :( I hadn't done that at all through this whole pregnancy! It was very light in volume. color wise it was a dark brown mixed with a mucusy look. I was super frightned. Now Jerrod is in the feild in bridgeport, ca with NO RECPETION. I called my mom and she came and got me and took me to the BELLFLOWER KAISER PERMENANTE. I checked into the ER at 0500 and was poked for my blood and had the needle left in me just in case i was admitted and needed an IV. Well, we would have to wait till 0800 for an u/s tech. finally I got to go to the u/s area. The tech did his job...showed me my baby and my baby's heartbeat! So much relief was lifted at this point! He showed me that everything was fine! Well I was released to bed rest for a week. I contacted my doctor the next morning and he had me come in at 1330(130pm) for a check up. He did a pelvic exam and said my cervix is closed, long, and hard! Then did a vaginal ultrasound and said the reason for my spotting was b/c my placenta is near my cervix...which is not a problem since my uterus will grow and then move up!

SO, now we are to today YAY! Now I can blog freely...My story is caught up!
