It's been awhile...

Well  I haven't posted anything in a couple weeks, So I figure I'd better write some things down here, before I start to forget things that have happened..

ALL ABOUT BABY:
                 Things on the baby front have been great, I've been feeling healthy, I've been on a normal sleep schedule FINALLY! I've been starting to feel him kick up a storm, but I've still yet to feel him on the outside, so mike hasn't felt it yet. My Due date moved up from the 14th to the 10th, (which happens to also be Mikes birthday) So as we stand now I am at the end of week 21 of my pregnancy.

I've only gained 4 lbs so far, and have been told that me and baby are right on track, and where we should be. My next appointment is on May 17th.

SHOPAHOLIC:
                I have been on a baby buying rampage!! My mom and I have hit up quite a few garage sales, and two mom 2 mom sales, and I've got to say I've scored quite a bit of stuff... I've actually kept an inventory, so I know what I have and how much I've spent.. So I'll share,

 Bouncer seat 8$
Pack and play 20$
giraffe chair 10$
walker 3$
swing 10$
bath helper .25cents
grooming kit 5$
sling 2$
head support 2$
bed gate 1$
kick and crawl 2$
3 crib sheets 2.75$
2 receiving blankets 2$
BULK Clothes, towels, sleep sacks 20-30$

All in all It's under 100$ and I really did get a lot of stuff.
At this rate, I've kind of got to cool it, the shower is not till August, and I'm not going to have anything left to get if I keep on buying... I did get a little Pea Pod costume for Halloween though, and I am in LOVE with it..

PARTY PLANNING MOMMA:
             My sister and I have also been thinking hard about the planning of my shower. The hall is booked, and I have the invitations already.. They are sooooo cute and I ordered them pre printed with all the info, so I don't have to fill anything out. Complete with my own little rhyme and everything! I want to post a pic, but I don't want to ruin it for when people get them in the mail.

We've got a lot of ideas in our heads for games, and decorations.. Soon here we will be finalizing our plans and start putting them into action. We did make a bunch of Tea light holders out of baby food jars for the tables that look adorable. And we also decided on a Candy theme for the dessert table, so I've been picking up different shapes and sizes of glass canisters that will house anything from Blue skittles, to Blue rock candy on a stick, and guest will be able to make a little take home bag of candy. (It's going to be cute)..

This is the concept, but blue

I've also got a binder full of anything shower related! as crafty as Kayla and I are, I know that everything is going to be just adorable!!


PUPPY PROBLEMS :(
    Not really puppy problems as much as it is my problem.. Mine and my moms dogs gave me quite an injury last week!! Cali (my dog) is a 114lb Rot/lab mix, and Ali (mom's dog) is a 98lb Rot/Shar pei mix. When they "Play" they really play. I was walking across the side yard and the two dogs were running full speed down the hill towards me. I knew they were going to take me out, what I didn't know was how HARD they would hit me, so I braced myself for the blow. What it did was pop my knee inwards and drag my feet across the ground, knocking me to the ground. They trampled me, and even hit me so hard that my shoe came off. I felt something pop or tear, not sure which, and it took a good 10mins before I could even think to attempt to get off the ground. Long story short, A visit to the ER, no broken bones, in a full length leg brace for a week, doctors appt Thursday to determine if I need to see a knee specialist. I cannot bend my leg, I cannot put my own shoes on, I can't lift my foot into my pants, I can't walk properly. I have to use my other foot, or hands to lift or bend my leg. I can't drive. It's been a week and my entire knee is still so swollen I can barley make out my knee cap..

It's frustrating, and I can't say that I've been following all the rules, (the brace is so damn painful) so I haven't been wearing it that often. And I limp around without it. Bad I know.

My main worry is that I do need a specialist and it's something that needs surgery or takes an extremely long time to heal (as some knee injuries do) What am I going to do if I can't bend my leg? I sort of need to bend to legs to push out a baby!! Few more days and I should have some news on the subject... Trying not to worry..



Well, I supposed that's all the memorable things that have happened in the last couple weeks... I'll post again soon :)
