FEB. 20, 2008

It seems like I haven’t written for awhile, other then tags. I’ve been ok, not feeling the greatest. I haven’t been as sick as I was with Chloe, but I’m still throwing up everyday, (sorry I’m sure you didn’t really want to hear that) but I’m in the last week of my first trimester, so hopefully next week it will all magically disappear! I’m lucky that Chloe has been so good through all of this, she doesn’t seem to care that I’ve been laying around alot, Vince has been a huge help though, he’s been doing everything, cleaning up the kitchen, and even doing laundry! yes I know my husband it wonderful and I’m the luckiest ever!! He’s even made morning runs to Jamba Juice for me and taking/picking up Chloe from school!

I went to the doctor today, they said I lost weight, at first I was like YES!!! but then I was like no, that’s not the best right now, but what can I do? food just isn’t my friend right now! then we tried to listen to the heart beat, he couldnt’ find it, so he said we’d do an ultra sound, at first I got excited to have an ultra sound, i’d be able to see the baby, but then, oh wait they can’t find a heart beat…that’ s not good! but then he found it, whew! I don’t know why but when I’m pregnant I’m the dumbest person, and as I get further along it gets worse!

Rexburg is finally getting some sunshine! I’m loving it!! the snow is melting (even though we still have a ton) and spring is just around the corner…hopefully! :) I cant’ wait for the snow to be gone, the grass to get green, we can go to the park with friends, neighborhood picnics…yes guys even though Becky’s gone we still have to do them!! and best of all we get to be home…all summer!

A few weeks ago, at church I was dropping Chloe off at nursery and Vince was waiting for me down the hall, when I got over to him, he said that that Bro. Mueller ( our 1st counselor) wanted to see us after church and we were getting a calling! my first thought ” great” I got so nervous. In Relief Society, our lesson was on callings and they said that alot of times it’s one that is really out of our comfort zone, that we should learn from them, put in a good change…and so on, that made me really nervous, i kept thinking, I’m gonna get the worst calling ever! so I worried through the rest of the lesson, and sunday school, and the end came, I told Vince we should just forget, and go home (I wasn’t serious) we went over to the bishops office, we were both called in together…it was a team calling, okay not so bad, Vince could just do it. :) then he kept stalling on telling us what it was, he said things like we feel like nobody want this calling, it won’t be every week…and then he finally came out and told us…part time librarians!!! I about fell over laughing! all that worring for nothing, it was such an easy calling, no preparing lessons or week night meetings! so sunday was our first day in the library, it was so much fun! it really was! we just sat there and made copy after copy and gave crayons and chalk and pictures out. it’s probably one of the nicest callings to get while pregnant! I can eat my snacks and not try to be quiet about it, when we have the baby, I can still do it! it’s gonna be nice!

We have been going to my little brother’s basketball games this season,I still love high school basketball! the team has been doing really good, they just got done with districts…they are now district champions!!! yeah!!! I was so happy that last game I didn’t think they would win, they were playing like crap, the refs were retarded, and they were down the entire game! in the last minute they were only down by 4 points, not to bad, my brother sinks his usual 3 pointer and they are down by one, another guys Jon, gets the ball and gets a lay up, they won by 1 point!!!!! woohooo!! Go Bees!! State…here we come!!

11 weeks

How your baby’s growing:

Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.

She’s already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won’t feel your baby’s acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
