Today. What to say about today.
Church was good. I made sure to have water with me. I got hot and a little dizzy but not bad. I stayed for pretty much all of church but left the last meeting early to hear my Jen Jen give a talk in the singles ward. She gave a wonderful amazing talk!! So proud of her!!
I hung out after and talked with people for a while. Jen asked a boy out! Another proud moment. And she got a calling for the next 2 months before she leaves for school. We have deiced that since I got a boyfriend, engaged, and married while I had the calling she just got then it will work for her too.
I got home and ate some food and fell asleep and woke up just in time to get ready and rush off to work. I hate working on Sundays.
3.5 hours of my day not counting the time driving there and back ...so 4.5 hours I could of been home and reading and relaxing and doing something productive. Yes I got paid but I hate those short shifts. There were 13 of us there closing last night. ON A SUNDAY, when really we need that help during the week. We had 4 POS closing and during the week we are lucky to have 1 there till close. Brad closed and awesome people closed. Hated the 5 customers who thought it was alright to still shop after we are closed and made 4 announcements saying we were closed. So 10 min after close they check out and took them another 10min to get checked out.
Oh it gets even better. When we were getting ready to close we were counting the cars and we had one extra car in the parking lot. There was someone in the car and we could not figure out who it was. We noticed the car and the person about 10min before close. When we are walking out around 9:30 it was still there. Kristen went up to them to see if everything was alright and she said yes she was just cleaning out her purse. FOR AN HOUR? IN THE KOHLS PARKING LOT? I called Brad in the store to let him know what was up and what we thought and to be careful when leaving since he stays after to do some work and leaves alone. We think something different like maybe waiting on a drug deal. I think Michael waited there for a while to wait and see if anything happened.
I will talk to Brad in the morning since I am there at 8:30 and he gets in at 9 to see if anything happened when he left.
I am home now with a slanted tummy relaxing on the couch and not tired. Hubby is studying. I do not want to work early in the morning but I have to make the money.
I am grateful for
Walking out of the building at night with people
How we all care about each others safety at work
Wonderful friends like my Jen Jen who make me smile
Nights when we are over staffed at work
My slanted moving tummy with my growing girl inside of it

Happy 29th of July
Wow am I really tired. I think I need a shower too because I smell like big spray but really I think that just might have to be a get up early to take thing in the morning because I do not think I can take one tonight. It was a busy afternoon/night ending with off and on dizzy spells (thus going to sleep before taking my shower.)
Today was Courtney's baby shower! We are very excited for Hank and Milo to be coming into our family here soon. 6 weeks and 2 days at the longest (and we are hoping they do not come soon then when we have the C-section planed for them.)
It really was a great shower! I am happy I was invited and got to go to this one. Since I missed everything for Orry because I was at school it is just nice to be apart of something.
After the shower I was invited to hang out and wait till later in the evening to go with them to see fireworks. I do not normally get invited to go out with them. They have their own little group amd they do things together all the time. I understand I was not ever part of their group and they are all good friends but sometimes it just hurts. I thought that maybe once I got married I would start to be included but I still feel like that dumb little kid at the reject table. So even if I was just invited because I was still there I am still grateful that I was invited. It really did make my night.
I LOVE FIREWORKS. I do not know why there were fireworks but it makes me happy there was. Orry came over to Ry and Ash's and Court and Jon had to go to an emergency room because Jonathan sliced his hand and ended up cutting a tendon. SO Jon now has forever stitches holding that tendon together. So we got to play with Orry while they were gone. For the longest time he was pretending he was a cat. It was super cute. Courtney said he has been doing it all week and Jonathan says Orry gets it from me (apparently pretending to be a cat is genetic?) Yes when I was little I pretended to be a cat.
Fireworks were great. I got kisses for the first time under fireworks from the cutest boy in the world...he is a 2 year old boy but it is ok he is my nephew. (My husband is a MAN and he is HANDSOME...so I can say cutest boy and still be ok)
So my head is killing me. I am going to drink some water maybe eat some cake and go to sleep. Got to love dizzy/hot pregnant spells.
I am grateful for
Orry kisses under the fireworks
Being included and invited to see fireworks
Orry cuddles
Cold water in the fridge
Fireworks
And I have to add in to this post here as an after thought that my husband just walked in the door with flowers and a card for me for no real reason, just to show that he loves me. This man is learning. I love him so much.

wow 3lbs
Today was baby check up day. I am still shocked how the doctor can just feel my stomach and say the baby is well and even tell me that she is just about 3lbs maybe 3 1/2 lbs just by feeling. It is pretty amazing.
She is still moving and grooving. I am still sick. I got a doctors note today for a chair or stool to be at my access at all times due to my dizzy spells I have had all week. A few times this week I was really scared because of how dizzy I had gotten. Even right now as I lay here and type this I am not feeling too great. BUT I keep pressing forward.
I think I made a pretty amazing dinner tonight. I made taco salad. OK there is not that much cooking to do with it but I planed and prepared it. I kicked Andy out of the kitchen when he tried to add in his own stuff. So made the meat and cut the letus. Made some beans and rice. Set out some cheese and chips and ranch. I also made a super yummy tres leche cake. I was very proud of that. First time making and I thought it was yummy and so did the sister missionaries. The worlds pickiest husband is a totally different story. He did give me a hard time and acted so shocked when I cooked dinner. I really do love cooking, just not cooking for him because he is so sticking picky. I hate cooking and being told how much he dislikes it.
The Rangers won tonight. It made me happy!!
I am grateful for
The amazing tres leche cake recipe a friend gave me
My baby girl who keeps growing and still doing good
Getting a doctors note so hopefully I will not be looked at badly when seen sitting down
A husband who shared the TV tonight so I could watch part of my Rangers game
The missionaries. This sisters are amazing and I hope to be able to have them over to dinner again soon.

HI BABY
Oh today was an enjoyable afternoon. I once again did not do my chores and decied to go visit one of my friends and her kidos instead. (ok I did do ONE of my chores and that was load and start the dishwasher)
I went over to see Miss Lacie and Romeo and Zyd and had just a good time sitting on the couch hanging out. I think the high light of the day was having Romeo and Zyd yelling into my tummy "HI BABY" and other things talking to Aurora and rubbing and patting my tummy. Romeo was kind of rough on my tummy and Aurora kept moving more and more to my right side and going up into my ribs. Zyd was on my right side and would rub my tummy and talk to Aurora and she was able to feel her move a few times. I love the look on little kids faces when that happens. Aurora has also starting moving to Lacie's voice as well. It was pretty neat.
Work was work. I spent 5 hours of my shift getting OCD with the sterling silver fixtures on the floor and totally redid them and organized and sized everything (including the size of the hoop earrings.)
No CAs tonight...but I also only had 2 customers because we had no sale in jewelry.
Tomorrow is baby appointment day. Hopefully all goes well.
I think I might have a cavity or more then one...I have a few super sensitive teeth. :(
I am grateful for
Cute kids
Lacie giving me some big clothes since my clothes are starting to get too small for me
Small stool at work
Left overs because that is what I had for dinner tonight (left overs from Sunday and last night)
Clearance sunglasses (it is still June and I was able to get a new pair of sunglasses for cheep!!)

The Love of Christ
Today really did start off as a hard day.
I say this and feel like all I do is complain here. Believe me I do not mean to always sound so negative I guess this is just how I can release the negative and be happy and positive again. Good things happen to me. Just some days are harder then others and my days really do not have much going on but work and being pregnant that there is not much to talk about.
I got 1 CA at work .. yay me .. but not good enough.
So while at work today I got really tired and sore fast. There was a good 2 hours where if I put pressure on my right foot I would get a sharp pain in my lower back. Once that kind of faded I was really dizzy and had a headache from the pain that I was in with crazy swollen feet and legs. I am thinking it was not enough rest time between my shifts for my body to rest and recover. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to actually get things done.
I did not get anything done after work today because I came home and put my feet up. Still on the swollen side but it is going down.
I had a meeting tonight at church. It was a very long over due meeting to have. I can finally feel like this wall I have been hitting is lifted and that I can continue on progressing and feeling the love of my Heavenly Father and of Christ and what he did for me and for all of us.
I am grateful for
The Holy Ghost
My bishopric
The atonement
The pure love of christ
Forgiveness

Still Pushing Forward
My poor hubby got home last night and I was already passed out. Apparently I snapped at him because he walks in and sees me asleep and asks me "are you sleeping?" I caught myself after snapping and apologized and told him I love him. Yes I was asleep and do not like to be woken up when I am asleep.
I am very proud of my hubby because he did really good on his two tests he took today!!
I was sick all morning. Apparently my body did not want to go more then 1 day without my drug. So I had to go refill it so I could keep food and liquid down.
I worked today even though I was still feeling really bad. But I need the hours and cannot afford another call out.
It was really busy at work. I am very much worn out. Tomorrow is 9am work day and pot luck that I have nothing for. I guess I have to wake up even earlier to go out and buy something for it. I would of made something today but I was sick all morning and got home close to 11.
I know this is a short post but really that is all that happened today. I guess I am kind of lame. :(
I am grateful for
My drug. It keeps me from throwing up all the time and ending up in the hospital.
For how fast wallgreens can fill a perscription
For my manager letting me come in early so I could get s little extra time of work
The extra pillow I have that I used to make my foot lift higher while I slept
I am grateful for how my husband let me know how grateful he was for me going shopping and buying the groceries yesterday and letting me know he appreciated it.

Sleepy
I am once again ready for bed here before 9pm.
Since I went to bed early last night I work up early and could not get back to sleep. So when it was time to get ready for work I was ready for a nap. But no nap.
Went to work and got a CA with my first customer and that was the only CA I got today. I did find a pair of miss mate shoes though.
Near the end of my shift..about 2 hours left..I got really tired and weak and dizzy. So I gave in and used the stool to sit. Though I did not really get too much time to sit because it got a little busy at work so I was still on my feet.
After work I just really wanted to go home, eat and go to bed. Sadly we were really low on groceries. We didn't have any bread, work snacks, food to take to work for meals, really we did not have much of anything. So I went to Walmart and got more then I normally get on my shopping trips that I take alone. The Lady at the register bagged everything so I had fewer bags but they were very heavy bags. I got them all up to our top floor apartment in one trip but my legs hurt so bad and I could not breath after. Just once I wish one of our neighbors would see me carrying all these bags and offer to help. Shoot dang if it was hard to do this now I do not want to know how much harder it will be in the next 2 months to carry my bags up the stairs. SO after I got everything up here I had to put it all away and once that was done I collapsed on the couch. Now here I am writing my blog so I can crawl in bed.
I am grateful for
The fact that the ground floor is the 2nd floor so I only have to climb up one flight of stairs to get to the 3rd floor we live on
The empty freezer so I did not have to rearrange everything to fit thing in it
Cold water in the fridge (it was almost empty but I was able to get a few glasses out of it)
The strength I had to carry all my groceries up stairs
The fact I get to sleep in a bit tomorrow since I do not have work till later (since I close)

Low Blood Pressure
So I am very very much ready for bed right now. Taking all of me to stay up and write this post. Yes it is only 10 and the Ranger game just started and I went to bed early and got a lot of sleep last night but I have been though a lot today.
I only was able to go to sacrament meeting at church today because I am feeling sick today. I got super dizzy and hot/cold and sweating and I was sitting down. I had a few dizzy spells and once the meeting was over Andy wanted me to go home so I did.
I went over to see my friend who is a nursing student and her mother is a nurse so they could diagnose me and help me without having to go to the hospital. They took my blood pressure and it was extremely low. We chose to say that it is just dehydration even though I thought I had been really good at drinking water. I had 3 BIG glasses of water, elevated my feet really high, and snack on some oreos and mac and cheese. They took my blood pressure 2 hours later and I was still really low but higher then the first time. I was peeing a lot and it was clear so I knew I was hydrated. They "released" me and I promised to be good and take it easy.
Had dinner at my parents house and my dad put together the high chair. It is a really cool high chair I think so. My dad is really proud of my find.
I am still not feeling 100%. Still have a headache and do not feel well. So my conclusion is to just go to sleep and pray I feel better in the morning.
I am grateful for
A friend who is a nursing student
A 2nd mom who is a nurse
Water
Crushed Ice
Heavenly Father protecting me as I drove feeling sick and dizzy

Terrible Twos
Today was never ending feeling really. I did not sleep well at all last night. Got kicked out of bed a few times finally I gave up with only 15 min till my alarm would go off I just moved to the couch.
Work just seemed to never end today. We did additional marks today (marking clearance cheaper) and well I had too much fun when in Kids today. Found Orry some stuff and the twins some stuff and I already had Aurora's stuff picked out. Needless to say I spent WAY WAY WAY too much money today. I started to feel really sick and dizzy near the end of my shift. If I had to work much longer then I think I would of passed out of something. I was starting to get worried.
I ended up falling asleep for like an hour when I got home from work. I did not mean to but my body just gave out on me.
So last Saturday was Orry's birthday but we had his birthday party today. I love that kid! Poor guy was having it hard because all the other little kids wanted to play with his new toys and that did not make Orry too happy. A lot of little kids got hit in the face by toys and other kids. It was pretty crazy just watching it. I cannot imagine what it is going to be like with the twins and also Aurora as well.
I am very tired and I have a little kid beating me up on the inside. She is really starting to get strong. Hubby doing some studying but I think I am going to pass out early for the night.
I am grateful for

When Nothing Good Happens
When nothing good happens, and nothing went as planned today, it was a day spent just crying and hating everything about everything, it really means it is a good day to look back and be grateful.
I really do not want to talk about my day but just saying it was a really really bad day when it was supposed to be a really really good day.
Right now I am having issues breathing, hurting from I guess Aurora moving, still crying from things happening, emotionally hurting, dizzy, feeling very dehydrated from all the crying I guess, and not feeling good.
But I am grateful
For my health.
For even after all the bad that this emotional stressfulness has had on my body I can still feel Aurora move so I know she is still ok.
For the dinner my husband made
For my awesome dad who researches things
For the Rangers win tonight...the pretty much one good thing that happened today

Pregnancy Brain
I really think I am losing it. I keep starting to do something and the moment I begin I completely forget what I was trying to do. I am really losing my mind. I cannot remember anything or finish out anything that I begin to do. Believe it or not I sat down a few times to type up my post today and totally forgot what I had sat down to do.
I did not sleep well at all last night. I got up this morning and went to work. Nothing exciting. Got 1 CA and I was in jewelry so I made the amount that I was supposed to get. I talked to our store manager about what they did to my scheduled this week and she is letting me work a shorter shift tomorrow so I can get home not to long after Andy would get home from school and working out.
I went and fed Jack today and took a nap and watched the Rangers game with him as well. He also brought me a little gift for loving and cuddling with him as well as feeding him the last few days. My brother is supposed to feed him tomorrow morning so I left the little gift for him to clean up for me. I do not think that a pregnant woman should be handling dead rodents, though I could be wrong. None the less Jack has a toy to play with tonight. He is always so proud of his gifts he brings in for us.
And that was pretty much my day. Currently I was laying here typing watching some Friends and my husband gets home and just takes the remote without saying anything and changes the channel on me. Really the last thing I care about at all is this dumb stupid basketball. I am so happy it ends tonight. You have no idea how excited I am for the time that there is no football or basketball. I only get attention during the commercial breaks and that attention is him shaking my stomach to get our child to move for him. Poor guy. She tends to not be active around him.
My Rangers won today!! It was a good game!!! Made me happy. We need to keep winning so we can get the AL West back.
I am grateful for
The love that Jack Jack has for me even though he shows it in ways that I do not love
Easy days at work
Returned online things that we mark down (I might buy a normally over $100 high chair for just a little over $50
Ranger wins
Nice naps on my parents bed with Jack Jack

Days Like This
Days like this just make me want to cry. I really am on the verge of just bawling my eyes out from frustration.
Work changed my scheduled this week and I had no idea until I got to work today and my name was not on the line up. I went to double check and say I was supposed to be there at 4 and I see the book said I was supposed to be there at 2. Looking at that confused I noticed tomorrow said I was supposed to open jewelry...I had written down I was working at Noon and on POS. And I kept looking and it also said I was no longer off on Friday but closing on Friday and still coming back in for my original shift at 6am on Saturday.
So I still worked from 4-11 tonight and I will have to be back in at 8:30 tomorrow morning. I told them I was not closing on Friday so they are giving me a mid shift working 10-3 even though I would really rather be off by 2 since my husband and I had made plans since I was supposed to have the day off.
I got 3 CAs today.
Jack was a good cat today when I saw him before work.
I am grateful for
Cuddles from the Jack cat
Having a job
Cute clearance baby clothes
Having a good pay check to pay for the rising gas prices
A husband who lets me complain rubs my back to help me feel better

Uneventful Once Again
Nothing great happened today. Really it was a bad day for a few reasons and I really do not want to talk about them. Just one thing after another, after another, after another.
I am kind of just ready for the day to be over. I want my husband to be home to cuddle with me and to wake up tomorrow a new day.
Woke up today and went to work. Found out that being in the hospital still counts as you calling out of work so I have been absent more times then I thought I have been this year. It really did upset me and kind of ruined my day. Got no CAs today so that also will get my in trouble with work.
I got to my parents house to visit and feed Jack and he had pushed his food bowl off the counter and all over the floor to be a brat because no one was there to feed him first thing in the morning. I can tell you this if he does the same thing and there is more cat food all over the floor when I get there tomorrow afternoon I will not be happy with him.
Rangers are losing right now and that makes me upset too.
So really today what I really really need is to list those things that I am grateful for. Because no matter how bad a day is there is always, ALWAYS something to be grateful for. Something to make the day worth living. So with that said:
I am grateful for
My life. A chance to be here on this earth.
My body. To be able to be part of Heavenly Fathers plan
For the blessings that Heavenly Father gives to those who do what they are supposed to do even when it is not easy.
For words of love and kindness from my husband today. Pretty much the best thing that happened to me today.
For cuddles and love from Jack. Making me feel wanted and loved.

Sunday Not Really Fun Day
Today was really just a long boring day. I am very much ready for my husband to get home so I can have someone else here. Though my dumb heat brought on nap wont let me sleep when he will come home and want to just go to sleep.
Church today was good. I just cannot wait for the day that 1. Andy will be on time to church. and 2. Andy will be able to stay at church the whole time.
I got home from church and had to stay here rather then just leave and enjoy a place with AC because maintenance was supposed to come to fix the AC. So I fell asleep and woke up covered in sweat when the guy came to the door. So it is now cooling off in our apartment just taking hours like normal.
I have just had a really boring day. No dad to spend the day with and no husband just me and my very active baby girl in my tummy.
I am grateful for
Having a daddy here on earth who is active in my life and always there for me
A Heavenly Father who loves me
The gospel
The Atonement
Maintenance men who come on their days off to fix broken AC units

Earning Sweets, Extra Money, and 7 Leis
Where to start off about today.
Today I woke up at 6am and started cooking for our fathers day breakfast since my parents are going out of town tomorrow. All the kids went over to their place to eat and spend time with each other. We also got to see the birthday boy!!! Orry turned 2 today. I cannot believe how big he is getting and how he never stops growing. Next week is his birthday party.
I went to work after spending the morning with my family. My feet are killing me. So pushing getting CAs they started a thing on Thursday that we would earn a lei for every 2 credits and get out name into a drawing and today our manager made it 1 for every 1. So I slowly started earning my leis and my treats too. Every CA we got to pick a number and get a treat as well. (Really this manager is an amazing guy. He really does care about us employees and does his best to motivate us and get us going. Today was also his birthday and he was spending it at work.) So I got 7 CAs today. So I got 7 leis, 7 treats, 7 entries into the drawing, and at $2 an app I earned $14 extra today. Working a 7 hour shift I gave myself a $2 an hour raise. When I left I had the most CAs of the day. That does not happen very often but when it does I feel pretty proud of myself to have done something the managers can look at and be wow good job Erin...even though I still really never get recognized for putting my everything into what I do.
I bought Andy a fathers day gift and I also had to by myself a fake cheep ring since my fingers have swollen too much my engagment ring and wedding band were starting to cut my finger. Andy does not understand why I cannot wear it right now. He is upset that I got a new ring to wear until I can fit the other ones back on after Aurora gets here.
So I get home to find out our AC is now not working. So I am dying of heat. The temp in the apartment just keeps going up. We can turn the thing on and you can hear it running but nothing is blowing from the vents.
On my last note of the night. I finally have tried a new name to run past Andy. I still really want Aurora Christina because well why does he get to name 2 kids fully and I do not even get to name my first daughters full name. It just really is not fair. So I tired a new name Aurora Sophia. I thought it was cute and Andy did not like it. So I will go back to fighting Aurora Christina. I think he just will not be happy with a name unless it was a name that he comes up with. I will not give in.
I am grateful for
A cute nephew who just keeps growing
Family time
Good food
The little girl who was shopping with the name Sophia that gave me the idea to use the name for my daughter
Coworkers who look out for me and notice when I am having a moment that I really need to sit down and make sure I am taking care of myself because I will keep pushing myself otherwise.

10 weeks away?
Today was a not so good day for part of it.
The only real thing that happened today was my doctors appointment!! Aurora is doing well. No sono today but the doctor said she has turned and is in position to come out. So it is not little feet I feel making me have to pee all the time it is now little hands and headbutts.
I had to drink the yucky stuff and give more blood today.
I now have to have check ups every 2 weeks...which for my next one could be an issue because they already have that week made so I might have to try to give my shift to someone or really just let the managers know. There was no way of me knowing I was going to have an appointment in 2 weeks. Yes around that time I did read they go to every 2 weeks but that also sometimes some doctors do not.
We have also made plans that since my due date is September 3rd and my primary insurance goes bye bye on the 1st that we will be induced on Aug. 28th. So we are 10 weeks away from holding our baby girl.
We did some grocery shopping after the doctor and I also took a really long nap today too.
I got a shake and Andy got a slush from sonic and we (mostly I) watched Save Haven since my manly boyfriend would not take me to see it when it came out. Thank you sweet husband for finally "watching" it with me.
I am grateful for
My husband who talks to me while I give blood to help keep me thinking of something else
My husband who lets me hold his hand like a little kid while giving blood
The pictures of really hot men on the ceiling of the rooms at the doctors office for me to look at while they are pushing around my stomach
Banking phone Apps so when I am checking out at the store I can transfer the money needed
Red box..so we can rent a movie for cheep

I know what you are thinking I failed.
So I am not counting this as a fail because I have not done anything today to write about so I can still use this as last nights post. Why was I unable to write last night? I did not get home until almost 3am.
I slept in a bit and my husband got home earlier because he got someone to cover his work shift. He was upset that I had to go into work to close and was trying to convince me to call out of work. I got to spend a little time with him and it was nice to see him in the day light and not seeing him and saying goodnight and going to bed.
At work a coworker saved my butt. It had been super busy all day and she told the managers that there was no way I should be in misses working and closing it. So I got moved to POS for the night. I was very very happy. I was able to get 4 CAs because of a loophole so I made $8 extra!! Also I was able to do my job "right" because "technically" every associate should be getting a number of credits a shift and when on POS you should be getting 1 CA for every 2 hours. So I hit my quota. Still the new rules make it that much harder to get CA..but as one of my favorite managers says "It will pass...it always does." That is what is holding us all together..it will pass.
My husband really really really wanted to see the new Superman movie so we went and saw it at midnight. It was not bad, not the best movie of the summer I have seen (that still belongs to Iron Man and Star Treck) It was a good movie though. A good date with my husband and his best friend.
So before the movie my feet were already hurting and I still had to go right to The Movie Tavern after work. Even though I was off my feet spending that much time without putting my feet up really made them swell a lot. I took off my shoes because of my feet hurting and after the movie they were so big I cold not even put them back on. It hurt really bad to walk.
I am grateful for
Pillows to prop my feet up
Husband who helps me walk when it is hard for me
Good movie dates with husband
The 4 people who applied for a CA
My husband having friends that I also enjoy hanging out with

I love watching my tummy move
Today was another nothing happened day.
Sorry my life is boring.
I am trying to figure out the best way and the cheepest way to keep our home cool.
The leave the AC on VS turning it off when we leave the apt. It gets so hot and being pregnant just makes it 3000000000000000000 times hotter.
So I will start experimenting and get in trouble with the husband for leaving the AC on but oh well I guess. Better then coming home to an apartment that is 90 degrees.
Today I woke up and went to work and came home. My day was pretty lame. I got 1 credit at work. Yay for an extra $2!!
They are getting really hard on credit getting at our store.
Watching the Rangers lose stresses me out.
I need to start a new book. Maybe next week when my week is not as crazy busy. Well really today was not too busy but I really wanted to watch the Rangers game.
Sorry this is another lame post.
I am grateful for
The customer who said yes to applying for a Kohls charge
Water bottles
Cheep leggings
Hair ties
My smart mommy and sister-in-law giving me AC advice

And it will only get hotter?
I am sitting here sweating to death just to type this short post and yes it will be really short due to the fact I really just want to lay in bed under the fan.
Today I got stuff done.
Did some of the returns we had not done from the wedding yet.
I changed my name at work.
I changed my Tax form from single to married.
I feel accomplished.
I also worked an 8 hour shift today. I spent a little over 2 hours on POS and the last 6 hour of my shift I was on the floor. I was in Jrs. It is a small department and it was not really bad so I was able to handle it without getting over worked and tired too fast.
I am ready to go put my feet up on a pillow and lay down in bed under the fan and also the bedroom cools down faster.
SO I am grateful for
Store doing returns without recipts
Stores taking stuff back that I have had sitting in my apartment for 3 months
Getting a good amount of money back for how long I have had the items
Pillows to lift my feet up
My cute new socks to wear with my new shoes. So I can wear socks with my shoes and not look bad when I still try to dress cute for work. (cute socks but they should not be able to show with my shoes on)

Itchy Itchy
So my day was pretty much not very exciting and not a lot to say.
I woke up noticed 3 missed calls on my phone from my husband. No I did not sleep though my phone ringing, he has complained about my phone making noises so I have the ringer off at night, so he called and no sound came out of my phone. I think he will be ok with my phone making noises now. He was calling because he left his work badge at home and wanted me to bring it to his at school but he ended up skipping his 2nd class and came home.
I went out to lunch with my mommy today and I also did some more laundry at their house as well.
Worked for a fun 4 hours nothing great or exciting happened there.
My legs itch really really bad still. It is taking everything in me to not scratch them till I bleed.
I am grateful for
My new shoes
Toast
Ginger ale
My neasua pill
baby kicks/movement

A Not So Happy Day
Today was a really bad day. Nothing went right and everything fell apart. I spent half my day just bawling my eyes out. It doesn't matter what happened but just that it was not a good day.
Today 1 year ago Andy asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes. I really do truly love him. He is my everything.
Today my dad came over for a little bit and he helped me put the book cases together and put books and things on them and stuff on the top that I can only reach on my tiptoes and fingertips. I am really happy he was helping me because he did most the work and I was worn out from what I had done. You really have to tone everything done some when you are with child because you just cannot do your normal things without getting wiped out super fast.
It was also family dinner tonight and so I went to my parents for dinner. Andy was at work. Ry and Ash could not come because Ry hurt is back somehow and is in a lot of pain. Jon and Court and Orry came over though. It was a good dinner and talked and went to the park and just had a really good time. Well a good time besides the 30 bug bites all over my legs. I got eaten alive. I do not know if I want to be going outside again for a while. No one else go touched by the evil bugs. But we did all come home sweaty and gross.
I am grateful for
A daddy who listens
A daddy who gives good advice
For a best friend who knows just when I need someone and will drop everything to talk to me to help me calm down and feel better
For parents who let me use their washer and dryer
For a super cute Nephew who can make the worst day in the world the best day just by his smile

Sleepy time?
So I had crawled into bed and laid down to finally relax and realized I did not post in the blog today...cannot forget...I mean it is only day 7. Hey day 7 that means I have accomplished 1 whole week right?! Sweet!! Go me!!
So my day started at about 3am throwing up. After stopping and finally falling back asleep I slept in and was not able to go and do what I had planned this morning. I was planning something really special for my husband for fathers day and Aurora decided that she did not want to get daddy that I guess. I was really bummed and still feel awful about having to bail out on my friend.
It got to the time that I needed to leave for work. I had some food in my stomach and had kept it down so I chose to go and try working because I really could not afford to lose the hours.
After work I bought some shoes that will hopefully help my feet. They have a bit of support and comfort. And well they have way way way much more support and comfort then my flats have. They are just plain black shoes but oh well...I need them.
My dad and mom met me at work (and my dad got a pair of shoes too AND both our shoes together we did not spend over $50...we were actually $7 short of Kohls cash.) and they followed me home to drop off my (our) book cases!!! I am so excited!!! I have to put it together tomorrow and start putting stuff on them. That will be my project this week. Andy wont like the fact I will take a week to do it but I want to make it perfect. The corner is going to be my reading corner. We have 2 windows over there and I plan on buying a lap to put there too. And maybe if I get a rocking chair or a glider I can put it there too and read to my baby girl when she gets here. I really am excited and have been planning this corner for the last 3 months.
Tomorrow is an important day, But I will tell you what tomorrow is in my post tomorrow.
I am currently pretty much wide awake but will try to lay down in bed and maybe do somethings on my phone and hopefully not drive my husband crazy..if so I guess I will come back out here and work on the book cases. I just would rather lay down then stand up and do more work tonight.
I am grateful for...
My daddy building me book cases
My daddy putting aside other project to finally finish my book cases
My parents staying up late waiting for me to get off work to bring my book cases over
My parents doing all the heavy lifting since I am not allowed to do it
The customer who left her 30% off so I could use it to buy my shoes and my daddy's shoes tonight

Your Toes are really Fat
Such love from my husband. He likes to point out the things that are changing with my body. Yes hun my toes and my feet and my ankles and my legs are pretty much all a bit swollen. You should see them after I have been on them for a few hours...now that is really swollen.
So I really do not have much to say about today except I am really tired and really ready to just crawl in bed.
I finished my book!! I have to wait till this fall for the next one to come out. Either tomorrow or Sunday I should be starting a new book. Wounder what book I should read next.
Today was really just work. Went in early to get a little extra and also because I was not going to wait until 7pm to go into work.
Aurora is moving a growing and kicking and doing all that fun baby stuff. And I am slowly but surly losing my mind. And my feet really are killing me after working and being on them for a long time. I need some new good shoes to wear to work.
So I really cannot remember what all I have said for what I am grateful for...I blaime Aurora I cannot remember anything anymore.
Foot rubs
Foot scrubs
(both things I did not get today but I am very much thinking about them and how wounderful it would be to put the scrub stuff on them and get a nice foot rub.)
Chairs/stools (yes strange but when you are prego you are very very happy when you can sit down at your standing job.)
Car radio
Baseball App on phone.
Sorry for the short and not informitive post but I really want to crawl in bed and put my feet up.

Will I get Sea Sick?
Here is a post that should of been written a while ago while it was still fresh in my head. Sadly I guess I can kind of share what I remember.
For our honeymoon we went on a cruise and no not the cruise line that broke down a few times!!
We had to fly Florida because our ship left from Miami. We could not get a flight right into Miami due to it being Spring break time so we flew into another city ... I cannot remember where and we stayed the day in a hotel there. It was a really crappy hotel but it was really cheep and that is what we needed. We pretty much spent the day cuddling on a small bed and watching movies on the TV in the room.
In the morning we took a shuttle to the airport to take another shuttle to the port in Miami so we could get onto our ship.
We spent the day docked but hanging out on the ship. It was really nice because we deiced to turn our phones off then and just leave them off since we wouldn't be able to use them any other time on the cruise. Best 3 days when we both did not have phones.
Highlights of the cruise.
The food!! All you can eat anytime. We were spoiled with being able to just go get something to eat whenever we wanted for free!! We loved the food.
Shopping...ok well that is what I liked!! I hate spending money but I love shopping. Andy made me spend money and we got things to remember our honeymoon.
Spending time together. When we were on the ship we kind of hung out either walking around the ship or in our room being with each other. There were 2 channels on our TV that were movies. No commercials. We got a watch some good movies!!
I won a massage!!! I went to a meeting and got my name put into a drawing and WON!! I have never won anything so I was super excited!! I had never got a professional massage before and it felt soooo good!! It was just shoulders and neck so prego friendly.
Down side.
First night I got really sick feeling. I had a patch to help with sea sickness but I got really dizzy on the first night Andy and I spent the night in our room.
The stops were not really all the awesome. To do anything cool and worth remembering it cost a ton of extra money that we just did not have to spend. But we really did not mind hanging out on the ship and eating and being with each other.
I do not think there are any other down sides from our honeymoon!!
Well unless you count trying to get home.
So we took a shuttle that took us to Miami airport instead of the one that we had flown into when we got to Florida. Due to some stuff that happened at the Miami airport that morning all flights were delayed or over booked because of people missing flights and we could not get on any flight going standby because we had been pushed to numbers in the 30s and 40s because paying customers come first.
We ended up trying not to fly directly into Dallas and fly to other places that eventually took us to Dallas. So I cannot remember where we were flying to and going to get on a flight to Dallas from there but there was a storm and our flight got sent somewhere else. While stopped in this little tiny small airport the storm hit there and it brought hail that hit our plane. Well we were officially stuck for the night. We had to once again get a hotel. So we stayed the night and next morning we were able to catch the first flight to Dallas from there. So we got an extra day on our honeymoon but not really how we wanted to spend our time.
I HAVE PICTURES!! Just finished uploading them to my laptop so I can share some pictures with you!! I apologize for the fact that I just did not care about make up on our honeymoon and wore a swimsuit the whole time with a cover up dress over it.
I am grateful for
Sea sick patches
Sunsets
Sunrises
Rain storms
Sunscreen
