baby bedding and other goodies

So since we were done we had gotten rid of most of our baby stuff. We basically have a crib, rocking chair, monitor and an exersaucer for later on. I had JUST sold the bedding I used for my daughter about a week prior and the day before I found out I sold our pack n play to my daycare lady.

Fortunatly my bff has 2 kids, boy and a girl, almost the same age as my kids has saved EVERYTHING! She is coming through big time. Swing, pack n play, bathtub, breastpump, travel swing (like we will be able to afford to go somewhere LOL) A gal at church sold me her stroller, infant car seat and 2 bases for 20$! Thats an awesome deal and its gender netural!


P told me if I waited to find out the sex I could decorate the baby room however I want, there is no way I can wait that long to decide on some sort of room decor. I am in love with brown...and cream... I found this bumper and bed skirt at target. Thinking it might work, however are polka dots to girly? I would then add in more colors once the baby is here.

Names...

so we are not finding out this time what the sex of the baby is. NOT by my choice..but I am giving in this time.

P is dying to name a boy Griffin. I just CANT get into that name at all! I would love to name a little girl Stella since it was my moms first name, he hates it LOL!

At this point the boy names seem to be Nathaniel (probably the winner), Vincent (my brothers name) or Jeremiah (sticking with the J theme we have going on with the other two kids)

for girls...we were thinking Naomi, then P mentioned Ashton. Which after growing on me I am loving it. I LOVE Ashton Layne.....P likes Ashton Elizabeth.

What are your thoughts on Ashton for a girl? I like it spelled Ashtyn better, but with Layne I think its toooo many Y's.

Luckily we have 30 more weeks to figure this out!

Puke, Puke and more Puke

I am still sick, still fighting off the pukes everyday ALL DAY!

I went last week for my appt. Doc said I can take one more zofran a day, so that is helping but I am so tired of feeling like POO! My due date is May 19th.

Same symptons I have had with both kids, nausea, puking, constipation and some crazy heartburn. I am hoping it goes away faster than it did with my other two.

I have lost 2lbs. Doc was fine with that, he would like me to only gain 15-20 tops. I gained 45 with my daughter and 35 with my son. So I am going to keep walking and keep trying to eat as healthy as I can!

Salad

so thats my craving right now. Salad of any kind!

Wednesday I had Caesar for lunch and a green salad with black beans and steak for dinner from Chipotle. Thursday I had another caesar for lunch and then a green salad for dinner with cucumber, red onions, olives and oil and vinegar. Today I am thinking something with chicken!!

I am a HUGE coffee drinker....now even the smell makes me GAG. Which is good, useless calories!! I am back to drink large quantities of water and slowly cutting out my soda.

I am taking the generic for zofran which is helpful. Its a 12 hour pill, but only works for about 4 hours. But those 4 hours are wonderful! My insurance will only cover 12 pills at a time so I will be visiting Walgreens alot. Although that reminds me they just opened a CVS right by my house...might be time to check that out!

My daughter just turned 4. She has asked several times for a little sister. I have told her several times there will be no more babies..she has a brother and that is that. LOL So when we told her the other night..the first words out of her mouth were "SEE I have been telling you I wanted a little sister" So I hope for her sake its a girl.

I have 3 cake orders and an order for 30 cake balls to finish up tonight for tomorrow. Two are for my best friends kids and we will going to their party tomorrow. Princess and Spiderman! Should be fun to make!

Well there ya go....

I'm back, I know I said that a few weeks ago, but as you can tell had a little surprise pop up!
We went from being done...a few weeks away from the big vasectomy to PREGNANT!! I was on the pill so I think I am due May 17th. However my Doctor said I was feeling smaller more like 5 weeks so he put me down for May 24th. I will have an u.s in a few weeks to find out for sure.
I am scared, nervous, excited, worried, you know all the emotions that come with being pregnant. This time sadly I weigh more than I have getting pregnant with either kid. Fortunately/unfortunately I get SICK AS A DOG when prego and not just for a little bit, like for weeks...months!! I am averaging about 3 trips to the bathroom a day, doesn't matter what or when I eat.
So for the net chunk of months I will use this blog to keep myelf in check...and NOT gain 45lbs like I did with my other two.
I hope some of you come back and read...I got a new computer at work and am able to read blogs easier again, so I am coming to check up on you!!!

bad day

Yesterday started out great. Got up and walked 2 miles. Had my oatmeal and then COFFEE. UGH Why did I GO THERE! I was clean for almost 2 weeks....then that one slip got my mind wondering on other things....and got stuck on TACO BELL. So I ate it..and enjoyed it.
Today I am back on track! Hoping my one cup of coffee didnt ruin me and give me headaches again. I am hoping for a good weigh in tomorrow...a loss is a loss at this point for me.
I still have not heard back from my moms atty on her will and what needs to be done with her car. I got 2 new cake orders yesterday, which is AWESOME! Hubby has an interview at a gym near our house tomorrow (FREE memebership, wouldnt that be a blessing)! My daughter started AWANAS last night at church. There is nothing like hearing a 3 year old memorizing bible verses!
Tomorrow morning is a garage sale to hopefully get rid of bins and bins of toys and clothes my kids have outgrown. Once they are settled in bed for naps, I am off to the outlet stores, dinner, a night in a hotel and then spending saturday at the beach (and more shopping) with a big group of ladies from church. Praying I can do good at the garage sale so I have money to spend at the outlets. Really all I need is a few bras. The ones I have are old, unflattering and stick me in weird places.

**again my is my spacing all weird....hard to read such a jumbled post!
