Linda: You better tell us the MOMENT that you find out when this appointment is! I hope and pray that they have everything completely worked out by the time you leave for your cruise, that way you can start baby dancing right when you get back!
Now... ALL ABOUT ME!!!I feel bad, I did not mean to make it sound like I had earth shattering news. I just had alot of awesome things that happened over the last few days that I wanted to share with everyone.
Kailey has spent as much time at tumbling as I do on the computer! lol We have been going to practice almost every night over the last few days, she has a big meet this weekend, and our tumbling center is hosting it.... which means... that Jacque is an idiot and volunteered to help. This is all ok though, because the people at Patti's Gym are not the type that take advantage of your kindness. She has two passes in the beginners portion of the tournament, front roll/front roll splits and back roll/back roll splits. Last time she performed she got first place, but now she is in a higher class... so this will be much harder for her.
The AOH party was on Saturday from 2pm-9pm. We had so much fun, I have so many photos to share with everyone. We had a pumpkin decorating contest, bobbed for apples, had a mummy wrap race, and played bingo. We had an awesome time. Believe it or not, this was the first time I have ever bobbed for apples and it took me only 4 seconds to get one! I was so proud of myself!
I made a Giant Harry Potter for the Pumpkin Contest, it looked perfect, Mike took a photo of that also, so I will post it under the pumpkin decorating photo either later tonight or tomorrow by nap time.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire comes out in less then 25 days! I am so excited!!! This was one of my favorite books, and cannot wait to see it on the big screen, we already have plans to see it the Friday and Saturday night of the weekend that comes out! Is anyone else as excited as I am to see this?
Feeling positive about this cycle. Last cycle I was also, but this time it is different. It actually feels real, not something that I am just praying for... the other cycles it just seemed like something that may happen someday, but now it feels like this could be it. So far I feel fine... I am a little more emotional and tired, but that could just be because of the weekend we had. So, time will tell. I plan on testing on November 2nd or 3rd... I will try my hardest to hold out until then, but as you know I am a POAS addict and will probably start testing by the end of the week!
The Nursery has had more major updates, the Giraffe is now finished, and I have been spending so much time on the sky. I want it to be done so bad. But I also want it done right, so I must be patient. Either way, I set back my goal date... I wanted it done by Halloween, now I want it done by Thanksgiving.... We have having people over, and I would like to show the room off.... especially since I will (hopefully) be pregnant then! I will let you know when I get the site updated with the new photos... but I do not think I will get to it until at least tomarrow night.
Mike's Finals are complete, and he thinks he did a good job. He only has one year left and he has a 4.0 GPA, so I have come to understand that doing a good job usually translates as doing a freakin awesome job.. my guess is that he will pull through a couple more A's!!!
I had this next paragraph in a post for Mandi... I wanted to share it with you also....I want you to remember this story next time you see a pregnant woman - A few weeks ago I went to the store to pick up a few things, when I got out of the van there was this family walking up to the store... the mom on the left, the dad on the right, and the most beautiful little boy holding both of their hands. I had tears come to my eyes, for some reason seeing him made me think of Trent. Then the mom turned around....... she was pregnant, it looked like she was about to have her baby within the next few months..... the next day I went to Kailey's school and there were three newborn babies, later that night at WalMart I saw 6 pregnant women in the span of about 10 minutes.... So I know exactly what you mean about seeing pregnant woman and babies everywhere. I used to see it as a sad thing - they were pregnant and not me... but then a few days ago Kailey saw a pregnant woman and said, hey mommy look - that lady is going to have a baby. Before I can respond she says - I like it when I see pregnant mommies, it reminds me that someday soon you are going to have a baby also. So from now on I am going see pregnant woman as a reminder of what is to come, not what I have lost..... I thought you could appreciate this. It was a happy thought, and it has really helped me out over the last few days.
I was worried that Christmas would not be very merry this year, especially since Trent was due on December 18th. I was planning on Santa bringing gifts for two kids this year, but every since Kailey pointed out what WILL come I feel alot better, I have my sad moments... but they are usually overshadowed by happy once!
Thanksgiving is less then a month away, and with that comes the fun fest at Kailey's school. This might sound awful, but I hope I find out I am pregnant this month so I do not have to help with it. I feel so bad, and do not want to use a baby for a reason to be lazy, but the fun fest is SO MUCH WORK and NO ONE WANTS TO HELP. I get so stressed that I feel like I just want to curl into the fetal position and cry in the corner every time I think about having to help..... so I pray that this is it and that I can begin to relax even more. I will be able to take better care of myself and spend more cuddle time with Kailey.... Do you think i am awful for looking at it like this?
One more thing... Mike's parents found out about Trent and they are PISSED that we did not tell them that I was pregnant. They do not understand waiting until the 12 month mark, and now they think we are keeping all kinds of secrets from them... mind you these are terrible people, they do not even acknowledge their son's birthday, they only care about themselves, and we very rarely talk to them. Now they will not return our calls... I am trying to be nice and invite them over for Thanksgiving.... what should I do? I would appreciate ANY advice on the matter!
OK, that is all.... my fingers are cramping and feel like they are going to fall off, I shall never wait so long to type a "me" update again!
Love and baby dust!
Jacque
