Memories

{Memory Lane}

I've seen this on a few blogs, & I want to play! Please play along. Or I'll feel stupid. Really, really stupid..

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!.

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.

If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

*I stole this from some friends blogs, but I think it's fun!**

Not 1 pound!

I went to the doctor Thursday for a little checkup. I was so nervous to go because my belly is growing, and I am scared about gaining too much weight. I got on the scale with the nurse closely monitoring my every move, nervous as could be, and she said oh great, you haven't even gained a pound! I said oh good! I told her I had a friend who told me that if I gained more weight than what the dr. said they would judge me. She laughed and tried to assure me it wasn't true!
The doctor let us hear the heart beat and said everything is going great! We scheduled an appointment for August 15th to find out if it's a boy or girl! We can hardly wait!!

Feeling much better!

Last time I posted I was a mess! I was so sick! I thought it was morning sickness, and swore that if it was I would not have another child-only adopt! I couldn't believe it! It was horrible! I left work early the day I was really sick, and called Juan on my drive home. He was less than sympathetic as I cried to him. He said to go to the dr. and I said he didn't know what he was talking about. I then called my Mom and I'm pretty sure I sobbed! She said it was just a flu bug, and to go home and get some rest.
I did just what the Nana ordered-and felt much more human the next day! So-thank the maker-it was not morning sickness. It was the flu-so I am backing to feeling pretty good. Little upset tummy here and there but nothing terrible.
I am just finishing up my first trimester, and the chub is just beginning. It's great when I see Juan after work everyday and he says "Hi-uh--I think the baby is growing." And I insist that means he is telling me I'm fat. haha He then follows it up with "but mama, it's ok--it's the baby." Sweet sweet Juan! haha I can hardly wait for the maternity clothes to be a necesity! That will be pretty awesome--NOT! My Aunt Debbie swears by them-so I'll give it a shot. I want to insist I can just get through this entire pregnancy rubberbanding the button on my pants together-Juan insists otherwise because apparently that will smoosh his baby. =) I am definitley ready to get pregnant chubby and not just appear like I've been eating too many donuts. I swear-I don't eat donuts!
Anyways, things are good! Everyone is feeling better and we're fat and happy. Couldn't ask for much more!
We have a custody hearing on July 10th for Juan's boys. Could be interesting--say some prayers for us please!
