Sick AGAIN!!!

Alright I'm so tired of being sick while pregnant...I have never had so many colds in such a short period of time in all my life...this child has sucked the life out of my immune system...I'm hoping once he is out I won't be getting colds like this cause then I'll have a sick baby and a sick mommy and that just seems like general misery...

I'm sure the 1st day of training tomorrow will be great since I'll be miserable and antsy...I hope I don't fall asleep that will look real cute...not to mention I forgot I had an appt on Weds so now I have to see if I can leave early cause well there isn't much of a choice I need to leave early...I know I told him about it before but I myself thought it was next week and here was this week...oh I'm a mess lol...

Well at least I finished the mock up to Chelle's invites...did nothing else productive today but I'm trying to rest and be a good girl...I did paint my nails too...I know special lol

6am on a saturday is unacceptable

so ty spent the night friday night...well since dad is a freaking idiot who doesnt have a brain to leave the room during his un needed coughing spell ty was up at six am...and though he was the dumbass who woke him up who had to tend to him all day...yeah me...

granted ty is a good kid but god dad just needs to stay at the hospital unfortunately his treatments are done after this week...thats not a good thing hes far to annoying to be here twenty four seven again...

alright im exhausted and chelles power like blew up so shes to be staying with her devil dog so we need to figure out sleeping arrangements and its hard to type a blog on my phone

Updates

My dr appt yesterday was fine...I got there early and was taken back and was actually done at the time my appt was to be started...so that was exciting...heart beat is good...the measurement they take was good...so everything seems to be moving right along...speaking of which he's a moving right now

I guess I never really updated on dad...somehow he's just fine again and is allowed to come this weekend...mom took a day off work and is going to pick him up so I don't have to..thank goodness more chemo this upcoming week...fun fun...

Chelle is back to work on shorten days and the heart dr said she needs to deliver at magees...and needs to get a dr there as well as a heart dr there cause one will have to be present when she delivers...so she's hobbling along

Speaking of hobbling, mom is literally hobbling along...she's been doing some knee exercises but that only helps so much when it keeps popping out of place...one day she'll get it fixed...

I don't think nothing else needs updating...oh Tyler is a cute and told me he was going to take my baby for me and tickle it when it comes out...too cute...

Brandy

10 weeks

How creepy only 10 more weeks...I mean I guess its exciting too but just so weird...10 weeks isnt a long time and how does 40 weeks go by so fast...soon this little guy who is fidgeting around my abdomen right now is going to be a little person...a little person that I cant return to someone else cause I'm the mom...oh I sometimes wonder what I gotten myself into...but it will be fine I know I just hope he has grown into his nose and mouth by the time he comes out...cause looking at the sonogram the other day I still see a big nose and mouth lol...Alright I'm calling it a night well that is if he quits fidgeting....

Last week of Refunds

So this is the last week in refunds before going into training...and for some reason I feel completely stressed out cause I am pretty sure that dept is going to implode without me and justin...I'm trying to get everything caught up that at least they are starting on a clean slate till they hire ppl to replace us...but somehow just seem to get more and more behind and regardless of what kind of shape its left in our beloved co-workers will blame us for the mess even though we far from left a mess...

I think the baby was even stressed out over it cause he was really a moving at work today...he probably knows more about how the dept works than the ones that have been there for years doing the same job...I just remembered I have a dr appt weds night...its not till 8 pm which is way past my getting ready for bed time...I'm sure I'll survive mom said she'll send me shopping for paint so I have something to do before the appt. 

Alright I'm gonna get a snacker and get to bed...night all

For Once A Good Weekend

Oh for once I feel like something got accomplished this weekend...

Saturday Ty and I swam in our new "big" pool...well its big to him and he had a blast swimming around in it...

He just had so much fun though he wasn't thrilled with me taking pics but oh well I couldn't help it he's such a ham

I woke up early today and got grocery shopping done before it got crowded...washed my bedding...got part of Chelle's baby shower gift...played with Ty...got the rest of my dresser moved up to my room thanks to me and Kris...got my drawers organized...then washed up some baby clothes I got and organized them and realized it'd be easier if I had his dresser built so I could put them in it...so the crib was super quick the dresser took forever...but its all done and organized and 2 outfits are set aside for the hospital and he already has way too many clothes and he's not even here yet...

Now we just have to get the room painted since his furniture is chilling in my room...and maybe we'll get that done during this week...pretty sure mom wants it done before the shower so that everything has a home when we bring it home...and gee October will be here before you know it...kinda scary...but exciting...alright now I need to get to bed even though I'm wired right now or else it will be a long day at work tomorrow!!!

Brandy

Oh Lets See...

So as soon I typed nothing really new in the last blog I typed...we found out they transferred dad to the oakland va for what they were calling chest pains...turns out it was more so his lungs causing the heaviness and problems...but of course folks smoking has nothing to do with it...delusional man...I guess he's doing better they'll probably transfer him back to aspinwall tomorrow...at least that mean he couldnt come home this weekend...

Me and chelle got to go out to a friends yard sale a day earlier cause they were selling a bunch of baby stuff...chelle made out like a little bandit...she went from well I'll go but I probably wont want anything to walking away with 3 bag fulls cause all the clothes for little girls looked barely wore and she just went hog wild...i was quite excited to walk away w/ two activity mats and onesies as well

Mom was instructed by the physical therapists at her work to do leg exercises...she has surprisely done them 2 days in a row and says her leg is loosing up some but is still having trouble getting around...and the first time we did them she only screamed once when i yanked her leg to show her she could pull it to her chest...well we were done with that exercise after that one...

Alright I'm gonna rest some trying to get these feet to not be so swollen cause this heat did a number on them after work...and then maybe out to walmart later tonight...cause surprisely Im not that tired right now...

Brandy

What a week...

Oh all I am is tired anymore and work is a pain in the butt as they try to prepare the specialists to help out when we leave and they either dont think they should or are just annoying...

Other than that nothing else is new...I can't remember if I mentioned but I'm pretty sure this baby is trying to rearrange internal organs for me...and right now roscoe and rusty are trying to kill each other...well more like rusty is trying to kill roscoe cause he's a mean old man and roscoe is a dopey puppy....sorry that was a random interlude...back to the baby...some days he just kicks and kicks and its like gee take a nap for a minute lol...

Alright I need to help mom with her exercises that the physical therapists who sees the residences where she works told her to do...this should be interesting.

Brandy

Mover and a Shaker

This kiddo has really started a movin and a shakin...was pretty sure he was trying to rearrange some of my internal organs today at work...apparently the womb isn't roomy enough for him lol...

Nothing much else is going on...work is work only 9 business days left in the refund section...thank goodness...then its off to training land and just as that wraps up I'll probably be going on maternity leave...

I wish my back would stop peeling cause I'm tired of it being itchy...but at least I have a nice tan going on...I think this weekend is painting the baby's room...well at least buying what is needed to paint it...so that should be exciting...though if its nice first I'll have to bake the baby in the sun then worry about the room lol...mom wants it done b/4 the shower so the baby stuff has a place to go when it comes home...alright beddie bye time

Brandy

Another Stupid Weekend

I'm sick of weekends I'd rather work...though Saturday wasn't bad...and stuff got accomplished...otherwise idiots ruin it...but they will never change and I've complained about it enough...can just keep on praying they drop dead...

So Chelle and Adam went on a little vacay to Virginia Beach...she is having fun...they are due back tomorrow...with all her doctor problems she needed a nice little break from everything...my car is finally street legal again...though somehow they didn't have my appt even after I had Chelle verify it cause I thought Dad messed it up anyways...but they still inspected it and accordingly the trailblazer blew a headlight just before getting inspected so there was 60 bucks to get that fixed...but oh well

I'm also trying to fix Chelle's computer and its beginning to feel like a lost cause...Idk what these ppl do to computers that they can't ever keep them running...I'm hoping this roll back will help but I doubt it...

Me and Ty played in the kiddie pools today...he's so cute...I was then going to go to the store but I'm just too tired...I'll get to it after work tomorrow I suppose...Rusty needs dog food so I'll have to get it tomorrow lol...I'm gonna try to relax maybe play with my baby registry...such an exciting life I lead

TGTIF

Thank god tomorrow is Friday...its been a long week and at least I don't have to get dad tomorrow since I got him today...other than that nothing too exciting to report...I'm pretty much ready for bed so I think that's what I am going to do...sorry for such a short blog...

Brandy

Easy Breezy...

Had my 28 week dr appt today...what a surprise was pretty much a waste of time...but baby is growing fine, hear rate is good and my glucose test was normal...he was like oh your having a very nice easy pregnancy that is what we like to see...and done I was with that...to have to make another appt in 2 weeks cause that's how it goes...

I did finish Chelles blanket she really liked it and promptly took it home with her...I have a bunch of yarn left so I may attempt a hat and booties or something...we shall see...well that's about it for today

Brandy

Sigh and Yawn

Nothing new to report...Ty, Trey, and Kris came over to swim in the neighbors pool and Ty didn't want to go home...poor kid I don't blame him...he was tired to begin with and I'm sure he'd rather be anywhere but at his house...mom told him he can spend the night one night this weekend...

Gonna try to finish up Chelle's blanket tonight...the baby is a rumbling...funny little guy...and I'm tired...Rusty needs to quit waking me up in the middle of the night cause he's cold and wants up on the bed...cause I then cant fall back to sleep...tonight I'm gonna try to make him sleep with me the whole night so he has no reason to wake me...alright let the crocheting begin

Brandy

Catch up time...

So where to start...I think I blogged Friday about my dr appt...so lets see...Saturday morning I got my wheels aligned and tires fixed...I kept panicking about that bill though it came out to be what I had figured...dont know why I figured they'd just try to swindle me...then mom and I sat in the sun wondering where are little Ty was...Kris finally got back to me and said they just loafed around the house that day...poor kid was cooped up on that nice day...she did bring him over and he swam for a bit...

Afterwards I decided to take Ty shopping with me to Walmart...he was so cute and good in the store...mom said to get him a water gun while we were out...so I had to get mouth wash and hair gel for mom and he was so cute in those aisles...oh look spiderman toothbrush I get that...I'd go no your going to get a water gun...he'd go oh okay oh look a batman soap I get that...just so funny how in a sea of uninteresting stuff he'd find the one thing with a cartoon character on it over and over again...

He picked out his water gun and we continued to get what we needed and he ended up with a box of poptarts and bag of m&m's as well cause u can't deny a kid food lol...so the main reason I wanted to go to walmart was to get a crib...after spending just what I calculated on tires I then had enough money to buy my crib...well Ty was adorable...he told me I shouldn't get it cause the baby wasn't going to sleep in it...when I asked him what should I get for him to sleep in...he told me the lightening mcqueen bed...I'm like maybe when he's older right now we'll get this...and he just gave me that disapproving toddler look...

After we got home mom sent us for ice cream and he was so good waiting for his ice cream cone...he stood at the dairy queen acting like he owned it and then when he got his cone he was like this looks goofy takes a bite and says but its gooooood....well he wasn't done with his ice cream and kris was to pick up trey's baby daddy on his lunch break so mom said I'd take Tyler home when he was done...simple enough till the crazy begins

Dropping Ty off turned into walking into ww3 cause neither Kris or the baby daddy are mature enough to be in a relationship let alone have kids...well there was no way I was leaving Tyler or Trey in that mess...so long story short it ended with me taking both kids back to the house and Kris actually following and them spending the night...Tyler then spent Sunday with us...he helped me clean my car till he wanted to go swimming then spent most of the day at the kiddy pools...which he was so content playing in the water and using his squirt gun to wet my baby...meaning I had a very wet stomach lol...Kris and Trey went home and when she finally came back she acted like nothing happened...that girl is not all there...and u cant help feel bad for those kids...

So by Sunday night I was exhausted...and sunburned...I'm trying very hard not to build the crib and changing table since the room needs painted and that just wouldn't make sense to do...but it makes me fussy...the baby has gotten hiccups and found my ribcage so that will be fun as he gets bigger...and that lady who had a 16 lbs baby now has me scared I may really give birth to a toddler lol...

Brandy

Sorry

Alright I'm just typing to say I'm way too tired to type up my crazy long weekend tonight but didn't want u all to think I got lost again...tomorrow hopefully I'll be able to catch up...

Surprisingly...

Well surprisingly the hospital actually had my name on a list at the front desk knowing I was to be there for my rhogam shot and bloodwork...I was like this is gonna go much easier than I thought...hahaha

Well it could of went alot worse...but my gosh it takes an hour to prep the shot...idk if they make it esp for each person or why it takes that long but thank goodness they could do the 1 hr glucose test at the same time...even so I was there for almost 2 hours...cause once u finally get the shot...which unfortunately goes in the bum and burns...u still have to wait another 20 mins to make sure u don't have a reaction to it...other than the wait it went rather smoothly oh except they had my insurance messed up...for some reason they can't get it straight that I have 2 insurances...and then they had me down as catholic I wanted to burst out laughing but figured I may get struck by lightening...got that straightened out...

Nothing else too exciting...went and got dad...went grocery shopping pretty much accomplished nothing on my day off...yay me...alright gonna work on Chelles blanket for a bit and then bed since I have a car appt tomorrow

Behind again

Last night I spent the evening crocheting instead of blogging...made some progress on it and rested my feetsy...

Chelle almost killed a dr...this high risk one seemed more of a quack than most and told her she was perfectly fine...every symptom that she has is only cause she is pregnant...well if what she is going thru happened to every pregnant person there wouldn't be a over population problem...and I mean I'm 8 years older than her and overweight and don't have half the problems she has...

The dr then went on to tell her that the adult cardiologist wouldn't even be able to read her ekg correctly and that she'd be better off with a peds one cause they won't over react about her heart condition like the adult one would...when Chelle told him that it was a peds cardiologist that got this whole process started saying how bad her ekg was from when she 14...he disregarded her and told her how bad could it be she only has had one surgery...so chelle will not be seeing him again and will not be going to magees ever...

She sees the heart doctor on the 21st or 22nd and is off work till then...so depending on what they say we'll have to figure out if we need to find her a dr elsewhere like west penn or allegheny or if she needs to set the law with cyphers say she is only seeing 1 dr and they are doing the c-section. 

As far as me I'm doing alright...the baby has been a mover lately though he feels heavy...I think I'm growing a toddler inside me and not a baby...we joked the other day that when he goes to drop he'll drop right thru and hit his head...gosh I have too much time on my hands to make bad baby jokes...alright I'll try to blog tomorrow since I'm sure I'll have some crazy story about the bloodwork tomorrow

Long weekend...

Sorry I'm behind on blogging again...this weekend was busy and I'm tired and anymore just super easily annoyed...since I seem to be the only one who can do anything anymore...and have to do everything

Okay little rant is over...4th of July weekend wasn't too bad...got to see Sarah and Josh friday night then went out to Brit's parents Sunday to celebrate her birthday...it was nice to get out then gets me thinking how that will completely end once the baby comes...I mean unless I want to pack him up with me and not all friends are kid friendly...so what little life I have will be gone and baby filled though...

Me, Ty and Brit took dad back to the Va on Monday...it was nice to have company other than just dad or just Ty...we stopped at Target in Gibsonia on the way back...that is a big Target and Ty was so good for us...he's such a good little boy...I'll upload some pics of the weekend later this week...

Oh then Chelle made me go with her to see Adam play at Pullman Park...this was one of their first gigs that was not a random party that Chelle had no excuse not to go to...his band is actually pretty good...odd group of characters to say the least...but they sounded good...I left there to go rescue mom from puppy sitting...Rusty isnt a huge fan of Roscoe...if he would just play a little bit with Roscoe he'd tire him out and he'd get to be left alone...but ignoring him only makes Roscoe go after him more...silly puppies...

Chelle didn't get good news from the dr...her echo was not good at all...and the dr told her she is not allowed to go back to work unless the high risk dr says its okay...the dr says the baby is fine...its getting chelle thru the rest the pregnancy that may be the problem...she also put in a order for new compression stockings that are like actually stockings to go over her belly to help with the varicose veins that are coming up there...the poor girl just needs to rest and rest and we know she is no good at that...

Will the list ever end

If my dad doesn't stop coughing I'm gonna throw him in the car and take him back to the VA or shove a sock down his throat...its so annoying and after the long day that I feel like nothing was accomplished I had I have no patience for the coughing...

Ryan did change my brakes so one thing was accomplished on the car...I had cleaned the house not that you can tell since Ty and them were here all day...me and Ty went grocery shopping...and I made pasta salad, hot dog sauce, and hamburgers...so I did do a lot but just feel like nothing got done...and I have a picnic to go to tomorrow and have to waste my day off Monday taking dad back...its just frustrating...

I need to get the dresser from the basement to my room so I actually have room to put stuff...the cars need washed...need to get paint for what will be the babies room...that room needs holes patched and cleaned down before it can be painted...I need to get the rest of my car stuff finished...

Chad is no help unless he is either in the right mood or needs something off of me will he actually do anything for me...Mom can't walk...dad just is in the way and needs to stay at the VA...Kris just sits alot...not even watching her own kids...though she did clean the kitchen up for me after dinner...and well Chelle is preggo too so were all just a bunch of useless nuts...alright I'm gonna calm my anxiety by doing some crocheting cause I need to get that done too...

Ho hum

Driving total for 3 hrs after work is not fun...stupid dad who had to be picked up at the VA...the traffic sucked...I hate driving my mom's car...and its just tiring...a nap sounds about ideal now...but really don't have the time...though I may make time...

Nothing too exciting...finally got a start date of Aug 1st for our promotion...so hopefully I'll get thru all the training prior to the baby making his appearance in the world...as long as he bakes for the complete duration it should all work out...done training then off 6 weeks then trying to remember what I was suppose to learn when I get back to work...

Now just to get thru this long weekend which after spending 3 hrs in the car seems like its already wasted and I'll be all set...
