Update

well, yesterday was a pretty busy day. It was my Birthday:):)

I had to work like normal. Boss-Lady put the baby down for a nap early and she was wide awake when I got there. So I had her up and going most of the morning. She finally went down like 30 minutes before her mom got home. I decided to heat up some pizza I brought from the night before. I had gone to the Px to get some stuff for thomas' v-day box and got a slice of pizza and some crinkle fries. I ended up falling in love with and only eating the crinkle fries!! So as I'm sitting there eating this pizza I'm completely turned off by the idea of eating all that cheese! So I peal off allll the cheese. Then I can't really stomach all the tomato sauce! So I scrape allll of it off!! Noe I'm down to just the bread part... and can't stand the idea of chewing it lol, so I spit the rest out on my plate... and as I'm doing that, I get that feeling... you know the one. my mouth started to water and my stomach knotted up and I knew I was about to be sick! Ugh. I went into the bathroom and had to stand in there for like 5 minutes, because I knew I was going to throw up, but just couldn't! Finalllly! If you have been reading the blog and/or remember a few weeks ago I threw up right after eating frozen pizza! So I'm thinking there is a link. The only time I get sick is if I eat silly pizza... So I'm done:( No more pizza for me:( I'm sad because frozen pizza is like the EASYIST thing to make for dinner! I don't even have to wash dishes or anything... bummer!

So after I got sick, I couldn't shake the nausea and as soon as the mom got home, I split! I had my first appointment with my midwife at 1:00!! Amazingly, I didn't have to wait very long to be seen at all!! My midwife I very sweet! I really don't think there could have been anyone better for me!! She's very excited that I'm planning on having an unmedicated, natural birth and recommended me to a doula that she works with a lot!! The appointment didn't last very long but i had a pap done and a physical. She wanted to try and hear the baby's heartbeat with a doppler but warned me that we might not. I guess it's hard to hear from the outside this early even on very skinny women... so we def weren't thinking we would hear it! BUT... after a little searching, she found him... for a few seconds, and then he flipped away! Everytime she would find him, he would run away! She said the heart beat was in the 170s so the baby was very awake and active:) Which is the weirdest feeling... sitting there being told that there is a little being flipping all around your abdomen and you can't feel a thing!! LOL! But I was very happy to hear that he was active and healthy! What a special birthday present:):)

Thomas called after the appointment but we got disconnected shortly after and he wasn't able to get it back... but it was good to hear his voice, even if it was just for a few minutes!

My good friend, Jamie and her husband, Jesse (who got home from a year in Iraq the day after Thomas left!) made me dinner and a cake!! It was the perfect way to finish off my birthday! They grilled some chicken and bought me a few gifts... It was really sweet!! ---Thanks guys:)---

The weather here this week has been beautiful!! So today when I left for work, I left my dogs out back on their lead so they could enjoy being out side and beiong able to run around, opposed to being cooped up in their kennels for a few hours!! Wellll... I got a call at work, from housing letting me know that they got loose and were being held up in a neighbor's backyard!! They didn't tell me very much... so when I got off and got the the neighbor's house I was completely shocked to see Mya sitting there with half the lead still connected to her collar! LOL... I guess they snapped the cable lead and got free!! That is crazy power! So tomorrow I will be doing all the paper work and whatnot to get a fence put up in the yard a.s.a.p.!!!
