Alright Tomorrow is Really the Day

Tomorrow is Chelle's big day...then we both can tell mom and I can tell the rest of u...Chelle thinks she is having a boy...personally so do I...I don't know why but I have a feeling...hopefully wrong cause she wants a little princess like herself...though poor Adam...he needs a little boy...

She and I have plans to meet when I get off work to meet and get our balloons...we each have to get a pink and a blue one and give mom the one it is...now the question is will she be getting 2 pink ones, 2 blue ones, or one of each....oh the anticipation...and I even know what one of them will be lol...

Alright so stay tuned cause I'll be posting it here at least 24 hrs prior to any announcement on facebook...so this was your warning...Idk what time I'll be posting depends on mom's reaction...I'll aim for the same posting time between 8pm-10pm but we shall see...

Need a weekend from the weekend

Gosh who wants to go to work tomorrow...I'm exhausted...and this being pregnant thing over the summer I don't think is gonna go over so well...just hanging out on the deck watching Tyler in this heat was enough...

That kid is funny he was in his pool then was done so we changed him out of his swim trunks and were playing inside...mom was still out on the deck and he said he wanted to go see her...I then come to find him in the pool completely clothed and mom is like oh well he has other clothes...

Took dad back to the VA...oh yeah he finally got a bed and made us come get him this weekend...no offense but what a waste of time...and not to be mean but I swear the more he knows he annoys off the better he feels...he better not think were coming to get him every weekend...ugh to that...

And I don't think the baby likes the computer sitting on it...it seems to try to kick it off just isn't strong enough yet...can't wait for the day that the laptop goes flying lol...

Memorial Day Weekend

Ugh...been a long tiring weekend...ended up helping chelle get her house put together...between the shopping and then all the work we did I was exhausted yesterday

We had her car so loaded it was a site...first off two pregnant girls at home depot and lowes is a site to be seen...we had to buy a push mower...weed eater...shovel...grill..propane tank...and hedge clippers...now the weed eater, shovel and hedge clippers were bought at lowes...cause they sucked at prices on the other items...so that wasn't too bad...at home depot there is chelle and I with a big flat cart...push mower box, the grill box and propane tank...of course the grill box wouldn't fit in the truck...the back seat was filled with our other purchases from walmart and kmart...so we managed to squeeze the lawn mower into the back seat too...are only option for the grill was taking it out of the box...so there we are opening the box and emptying into the truck so we could get it home...oh and not one person offered help...but we managed to get it all by ourselves...meanwhile a husband and wife team were trying to buckle down a grill to their little attachment they had on their SUV and started before we checked out at home depot and were not done by the time we left...how sad for them lol

Tyler and Treyshon played in the pool today...they are so cute...and little fishies...Trey loved the water didn't even care when it was on his face...Tyler on the other hand wants his face towel dried all the time...but he still loves to swim...
 They both were putting their heads under water
 Ty trying to be brave himself and get his face wet
 Brothers in the pool
Treyshon showing off his doggy paddle...









So odd to think that chelle and I will each have a kid Treyshon's age next summer...oh god what are we getting ourselves into...though he's such a good baby we'll still be lucky if ours are half as good as he is...Tyler is like the energizer bunny...he keeps going and going and going...no nap or anything...and I'm sure he'll just love having extra babies to torture lol...alright need to prop my swollen feet...ttfn

Its A...

Just teasing...u can't know just quite yet...soon...Chelle finds out June 1st...so it won't be much longer...I can tell you its not a 2 headed fire breathing dragon much to my disappointment lol

Here's what I can tell you...the kid decided it wanted to sleep...now normally at 730 am its up and moving while I'm sitting at work...not this morning...it was all cuddled up head at my right hip, butt at left hip...and it didn't want to wake up at all to move...finally the tech made it mad when it was trying to get a pic of its arm it was laying on...and flipped around and went right back to sleep...it kindly rolled one more time to get a better pic of its spine...

When I went down for the dr appt portion it of course then wanted to be up and when the dr went to hear the heartbeat it squirmed all around so that again it took awhile for her to get a reading on it...I was like yep now it wants to be up...but heart rate is good and it weighs in at 1 lb 5 oz right where it should be at its age...

So as one can see...both are head shots but in the second one you can see it has quite a big mouth...I already teased my sister that it takes after her...Theresa said it looked happy...I said yes cause it knew it wasn't cooperating...but I still say it just has a big mouth...

When Ty seen the pic he wanted to know where my baby was...I said still in my tummy...and he said oh I thought it came out already...he may be a little confused since I don't really look pregnant...I suppose between my height and the fact I am chubby to begin with I really just look like I put on some weight...well I have and pretty much it went right back to where I originally lost it...some may be upset that they just look fat and not pregnant...I'm okay with it cause I still feel the less ppl know the better...only 2 ppl at work actually know and I'm sticking with that until if and when I pop or I'll just continue to carry stuff in front of my tummy...

I know maybe that's not normal...but I was thinking the other day I think that part of me is broken...any major events in life that most want friends and family and the world to know about...I'm like lets go and get it done and over with and act like it didn't happen cause its no big deal it happens all the time...but at the same time I enjoy helping ppl celebrate their milestones...I just don't like to make a fuss of mine...I guess we'll just leave it with I'm special like that

Tomorrow...tomorrow...we'll find out tomorrow...its only a day a way!!!

Didn't feel like blogging yesterday...just kind of annoyed mood...don't know why but I guess u'll have that...

So tomorrow is the big day...well according to everyone else...I think everyone else is more excited than I am...even my supervisor at work cant wait...I think I'm kinda dreading it...for some reason it may actually make it all seem real...and even though I know its real...without proof with a picture or knowing what its to be I can still sometimes think its a dream...I guess we'll see how I react tomorrow lol

Now I do have some bad news...I was originally going to post what it is on here first over facebook and such...figuring those who take the time to read my nonsense should get some bonus lol...but my mom wants to wait to find out what it is till chelle knows on Jun 1st...so I'm going to postpone any announcements till she officially knows...but i will still post it here first...

I'm just hoping its not a 2 headed baby that breathes fire and has a tail...okay secretly it would be kinda cool if it was...what can I say I have a great imagination...and a baby that breathes fire may come in handy lol...oh well as long as its healthy and a girl all will be okay...well I'm sure it will be okay if its a boy too...but well we don't want that lol

Legs

Poor chelle's legs...her pregnancy has hit them hard...since she apparently has poor circulation due to her heart surgery as a baby her legs are just broke out in varicose veins...her left leg just looks so puffy, sore, and bruised...she has the special stockings and props them up as much as she can but they are just gross...

Her job requires her to pretty much be on her feet all day...and now with moving into the house she doesn't sit down...she's only 22 and by the time the kid pops her legs will look like they belong to someone at least twice her age...and once they are there they don't go away...it was bound to happen but the pregnancy just made it much quicker...

Then there is me...I've been overweight and such to begin with and not a vein other than a little spot of just spider veins that have a better chance to go away...my ankles swell up a little but nothing that is concerning...its just so odd...looking at me and chelle one would think I'd be the one with the problems not her...I guess you cant bank health issues on just by looks...

We'll just keep our fingers crossed that she won't have anything more major than the veins and I'll keep on my rather boring pregnancy route

Mondays are Rough

There must be something about Mondays...this is the 2nd one I've had to come home and take a nap after work...I'm just drained by the time I get home...but after my nap I feel fine...I always have to wake up in time for House...though with this being the season finale I don't know what will make me want to get up if this Monday nap pattern continues

I am trying to convince my family that we should take advantage of mine and chelle's maternity leave and go on vacation in October...just run away for a little bit...I know that I'll have a ton of other more important things to do during that time off but just a little break w/ the little ones before we head back to the misery in Butler...is that too much to ask for...

Knowing me I can have most of what I need to get done, done before I leave the hospital...if chelle and I can plan to have the babies the same day or within the same weekend...I know that would be slightly odd but more convenient...and everything is OK by the following weekend we could be heading to the beach...I know its a pipe dream but something has got to keep me going
