Mother's Day 2012

Mother’s day!  Got to celebrate my 3^rd Mother’s day!! It would be great to have a day monthly, but I’ll take one yearly :P.  Being that I’m pretty far into the pregnancy I didn’t feel like doing much, just wanted to eat (of course) and hang with my fam.  Started the day off with breakfast made with love from my husband.  Basketball play-off games were on so we caught a couple of those.  I still can’t get used to watching sports so early in the morning.  Morgan and Mills gave me a gift, it was a handprint painting using both of their hands.  Soooo cute!  I love gifts that are handmade, and Morgan is really good with stuff like that.  I wish I could be better at it.  Mills kept wishing me Happy Mother’s day all day, it was really cute! When she gave me my gift she immediately reminded me to say Thank you!  She is a stickler for manners! Lol.  I really wanted to spend time with my fam and make sure Mills had a fun day, we decided to take her to the beach so she could ride her bike down the boardwalk.  It sounded like a good idea at the time, but it really wasn’t.  One it was hot and humid out, and being almost 9 months pregnant it’s not much fun to walk around when it’s hot out.  I was so miserable and I couldn’t keep up with Mills riding her bike, nor could I keep up with her at the playground.  I had to cut our trip early because I was not feeling well.  I felt so bad for Mills, she really wanted to ride her bike and play at the beach.  I offered for them to just drop me off at home, but Morgan wanted us to spend time together. So, we picked up some hot dogs to grill and went home, filled up Mills’ pool and hung out on the balcony.  Mills was splashing in her pool, Morgan was on the bbq, and I was sitting at the table eating chips and salsa.  It was a really nice afternoon!  That night we ended up going to one of my fave restaurants on the island for dinner.  All in all, I had a wonderful mother’s day I couldn’t have ask for a better family!

34 Weeks Update

Whoa…time is really flying!  34 weeks down!!!!  I can’t believe it.  It feels like just yesterday I saw the double lines on my pregnancy test.  On a GREAT note, my husband is finally back!  The other night we went over the baby registries and ordered a whole bunch of stuff.  We have our baby shower in a couple weeks and after that we’ll buy up the rest of the stuff we need.  When the baby is a newborn there isn’t much that they really need.  Yesterday I went in to see a nurse to get a NST (non-stress test) done, I had to do it while I was pregnant with Mills because of my Thalasemia.  The nurse thought it looked good and my doc was supposed to look at it too and call me back.  Surprise, surprise, no call back from the doc yet.  I really don’t like this hospital.  I understand that they see a lot of patients, regardless they should still treat EVERY patient with respect.  If I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t have got pregnant here.  I had such a wonderful experience in the last Naval Hospital and then coming to this one, its just such a disappointment. We only have about a year to go in Oki, hopefully it will go by fast.  Not really sure when we want to go next, I think we might do another overseas tour.  I’ve really been itching to travel lately.  I know I can’t exactly plan a vacation anytime soon, but I think maybe the fall or winter this year I wouldn’t mind going on a vacation with the whole fam.  It is going to be so weird traveling with2 kids!  As for the pregnancy, everything is going well.  I’m sleeping better now that my hubby is home.  I am super duper tired tho.  I’m assuming because I’m only a few weeks away and my body is telling me that I should sleep more because when the baby comes I wont get anymore sleep.

On a side note>>>

33 Weeks Update

33 weeks and counting!  Doesn’t feel like much has changed.  I have become more lazy.  I think it’s a combination of it getting hot here, my office’s a/c not working, Morgan still gone, finishing up school, and me just not having the strength.  I’m ready for Morgan to be home, it would be nice to get extra help.  Times like these I wish I was home and I could just go to my Mom’s house, eat, sleep, and she could occupy Mills for me while I do my homework.  Ohh the madness of living overseas and being pregnant.
