Little Things

I have been thinking about what to post lately, life, baby, annoyances, etc. So let me start by saying things have been driving me crazy!

1. My leg-My left leg falls asleep all the time (mostly at night when I sit down to relax on the couch or when I lay down in bed for he night), the Dr said it a sciatic nerve, my uterus is tilted and it is sitting in it from time to time causing it to fall asleep. I have to prop my leg up and move around to make it stop feeling funny.

2. Gracie...what can I say? Right now she is staring and barking at me. She wants to play ball but will not give me the ball back after I throw it.

3.Acne- Seriously I thought I was so over this, but i have heard having skin problems while pregnant could mean there is a little girl in my tummy!

4. People driving- This has never bothered me before now, but people in memphis really can not drive.

5. People telling me what to do- I have had more people tell me " Oh Don't do that, Don't eat that, You can't move that" PEOPLE I AM FINE, I am not incapable of doing things because I am pregnant. I know my limits and I have talked to my doctor about what I can and cant do, I thank you for your willingness to worry about me but i am OK! Don't get me wrong, I like when people give there advise but I feel like I get nagged on all the time.

OK thats enough about things that annoy me! I had a wonderful day today, my dear friend Erica had a baby shower today. She got some goodies for her baby boy! He will be here in October, can't wait to meet baby Knox. I got to see my sweet friends that I worked with at VF. I was very surprised to see Audrey and Suzanne! Suzanne lives in New Mexico so clearly I don't get to see her often. It was real nice to be able to sit around and catch up with everyone! I got there about 12:30 and I left at 8:30 this evening! I have been super exhausted again and I have had headaches. Not sure what to do about the headaches, I am trying not to take anything until it gets unbearable. Been super busy at work the past few weeks! Also I went to the Dr last monday, she said everything looks good. They listened to the heart beat, which is so crazy to me! Knowing there is another heart beating inside me is crazy! I love hearing it though, it just reminds me that there will be a little person here in a 6 months! Wow thats sounds crazy too! 6 months...am I ready for this? Ready or not we are on a roll!

9-11 Weeks

Well I have made it to 11 weeks...well i will be 11 weeks this thursday! Things have started looking up for me! I am feeling better and not as tired as I was feeling at first. A few weekends ago I went with my family to Gatlinburg. We had a fun time, we walked a lot and shopped! I bought two onesies that could be boy or girl, I thought they were cute and I didnt want to pass them up. I will post pictures. Also I posted a picture of my baby belly, yes it is little but it is there! I have been asking jacob for weeks "Can you see it?? Can you see it?? " He just laughs and said not yet! But today he said yes I see it, (Maybe he is sick of me asking if he can see it and finally said yes!) and I did have a dress on verses a loose fitting shirt. I have felt funny wearing tight clothes because I don't feel like I look pregnant, I feel like i just look fat :( But today I kinna see it more than I have. I have had some mood swings, nothing crazy but things do irritate me easily! Like people driving, what is wrong with them?? They cut you off and switch lanes at the last second, and they don't get out of the way! I started back to work last week, back at Chimneyrock! So far things seem to be going well, new administration and new people to meet and get to know. It is exciting, saw some of the students from last year and happy to see them!!
