Claudia you will love this

The A/C is broken at my work & it's awful. I am sitting here dying over the heat & complaining about it. My coworkers are saying they feel fine.

What's worse than being pregnant? Being pregnant with no air conditioning.

Return of the BLOG!

Guess who's back. I decided I would restart my blog!

Well we are making another offer on the same house! We totally want it. The sellers are a little challenged. I don't think they know what's going on with the market right now. Their realtors called me and said that they should be greatful someone wants to buy their house right now! So, on Tuesday we are making a new offer. I hope they finally accept it. We need a house before the baby comes! I seriously can't wait to get her room all together. And let me tell you being married to an artist is soooo great :) I already know what mural I am having him paint on her wall! It is going to be awesome. Plus, I found super cute wooden letters for her name that were hand painted. But, they wanted about 130.00 for her name. I found plain ones online & then I am just going to have Mike paint them like the ones at the store. Seriously, how convenient is it to be married to a painter? Lennon had better appreciate it! hahaaa
I just tried to find the font online, but I cannot find it. You will just have to wait & see the finished product.

I think this weekend we will refinish the dresser I got for her. It was Mike's Grandmas. I think it's form the 30's or 40's. It has rounded edges that I love! I just don't know what color to paint it for sure? I guess white to match all her other things. But I definitely want to get some cute handles for it. Any suggestions on where to go? I am new to the whole child decorating thing!

I know, I know

I suck at updating my blog! But lets face it my life is boring! Lately it consists of working, feeling sick, going home & immediately putting on my pajamas. I have just been so tired & feeling like crap so I don't want to do anything. Besides, the Utah Jazz games have been keeping me super busy too!

Oh, and whoever came up with the term "morning sickness" is full of it. For me it's more like night sickness or after everything you eat sickness.

We got the ultra sound & we are pretty relieved there is only one babe in there. That also means that it's super healthy. It looks like a black blob that Mike is calling "the Blob" or "Blob belly" (pretty original) and it had a tiny flickering heart beat. I think it's the cutest baby ever! haha. I was so scared there were going to be multiple babies in there that the minute I got to the office I was shaking & I seriously couldn't stop.

The second best news lately is we are BUILDING A HOUSE!!! It is in Eagle Mountain. And we are loving it out there. We had originally thought it was too far away, but after actually going out there decided it is perfect! Our neighborhood is right next to the elemantary school too-bonus. It's so cute & we can't wait to choose all of our things in it! I am kind of scared to see what our total comes to with all the upgrades....hah. We will still be able to get quite a few & a fire place! YAY.

what the Hcg?!

Well, I figured I would start a blog since everyone else is doing it! It will be a good place for me to post (complain!) about my pregnancy & everything else going on in our lives. This weekend we had to babysit Myrtle Mae, Mikes' family dog. It was really sad because she was on her death bed & could not eat anything and just laid there in misery. Claudia took her to the vet to be put to sleep this morning. Mike and I were crying over her this weekend and we were able to say goodbye.

Well I have been having every other day Hcg levels drawn for this pregnancy. Those of you who care to read this will know my history & the reason why I am being watched super close this time around. The first day 4/17 is came back at 67. The next 4/19 it went to 171. So I had it done Saturday and it skyrocketed to 617! Whatever is in there seems to be healthy :) That's all that matters to us. We will take what we can get at this point! So, I honestly just want to get it done again today to see what it will be at today! It should be doubling every other day, which it seems to be almost tripling. But, it could mean a lot of things. We are super excited to go to our ultra sound on May 3rd to see the heart beat.... & if there are any more than one baby(s) in there! It is exciting. I just wish it would get here sooner. Other than that I am just starving beyond starving. I cannot get full & if I do I am starving again in an hour. I am going to be huge in no time at this rate! We really just hope everythign works out this time. It has been a hard road to get here, so please no more dissapoinments! I feel like there is nothign I can do about it either way, so that's why we are sharing it and not keeping it a secret. Oh, and Wednesday I will be 5 weeks along. This seems like it is going to take forever........

WOW on Wednesday also it will be one year from when Mike & I left for Paris...............SAD! I wish we were back there so bad. I will post some pictures from our trip in our next post. We have a pretty boring life lately so we can pretend that we're in Europe again! :)
