Baby Check Up!

Well, I had my ultra sound this morning and it looks like I'm not as far along as I had thought. My cycles are very irregular so I must have gotten pregnant later in the month. I couldn't see the little peanut but I got to see the placenta sack which was very healthy. I go in next Friday and hopefully I will get to see the baby and hear the heart beat! I have been feeling pretty good. I have been really hungry. Besides feeling really tired which  I have been getting a nap in the afternoons and my nose which has been smelling very nasty odors! I haven't been that sick yet, so I hope I will pass that bad part of the pregnancy:) My pants have shrunk in the legs and bottom and have grown really tight in the waist and hips! I hope to write more later! 

Oh yes, my dear sister Katheryn just found out she's pregnant also! She's on her 5th baby! I have a long ways to go to catch up to her:) Congratulations Katheryn! I'm so happy we get to be pregnant together!!!!

This Girl Is Amazing!

The prodigal Came Home

I'm updating from my last post and it is most excellent news! Maxam came home!! I can not believe it! He was staying at the neighbors next door!! John came home the other night and found the family going door to door asking if this cat belonged to anyone! Maxam was just walking with the family happily! 

When I opened the garage door to let John in, he pulled me out and made me close my eyes. When I opened them there was sweet Maxim eating his food. 

Thank you Lord! I love you:) Thank you all for your loving comments! I really appreciate your concern and care!!

Sad Day

Yesterday was a sad day for me. I woke up and found that one of our kitties was missing. He must have slipped through the garage the night before. I walked through our community complex calling for him all day. I left the garage door open just in case he would come back. I have lost kitties in the past but never felt so broken hearted about it. This time I couldn't stop crying. I tried to shake the weepy feeling but it was extremely difficult.

 Himilce was so sweet. She came over and cheered me up. She gave me a sweet present, a little baby calendar that had an ink pad so I could mark the baby's progress  and she gave me her boots that I had always  loved! It was nice to get out of the house and shop at the GoodWill with Himilce, Thank you Himilce!!! I was feeling much better when I got home.

When John got home, his sympathy over the kitty made me cry again. He printed up "missing Kitty" papers and left them all over our complex! He took me out to chinese to cheer up this starving, emotional, pregnant woman! I'm feeling much better today. 

  My prayer for Maxim is that someone will take care of him as we did Sevetta!

Knitting!

When I went back home last week My mom took me and my sister Olga to a knitting class. I have been wanting to knit for a very long time but I have always been intimidated to learn, thinking it was very difficult. I learned how to crochet when I was a little girl and I have made all kinds of blankets and such but I have always wanted to learn to knit! I found that two hours in a knitting class can teach me how to cast on, knit, pearl and cast off! Thanks so much Mom!!!

Baby On The Way!!!!

I'm sorry everyone! I have been away visiting my family in Colorado and I haven't been able to get  on line for a week! 

When I got home friday night guess what Jonathan and I found out? Yup! I'm on the nest!!!!! We are so excited! I will post some more later about my visit back home, but I was so excited to tell my blogging friends the exciting news!!!

I think I am 6 weeks pregnant! I am going to schedule a doctors appointment soon so I will know how far along I am!! I'm really excited that Himilce and I are so close together with our pregnancies!!!

Memories

Looking through pictures today and I wanted to post some!

I'm not sure what Jonathan thinks about this but Here I go!!

I have been wanting to post some pictures of John and I because I realize that I don't have many pictures of us together! So here are some from this last year of our marriage and the year before when we got engaged! 

This one above is really Elizabeth and Benjamin! Did I fool you? He he he!!! :)

Sarah-Cuda

If you're a woman and like to hunt game with a bow, Lakota Industries has come out with a new product called the Sarah-Cuda: a bow designed specifically for women.

It's a formidable looking weapon, to say the least; not much less so by virtue of being pink. Lakota says:

The Sarah-Cuda is a tribute to women everywhere who embrace the sport of archery and bow hunting. Women who face the challenges of adversity and demonstrate the courage and strength to survive in today's world, yet have the caring heart and tenderness of good wives, mothers, sisters and daughters. ...

Lakota Industries, Inc. has designed this magnificent bow to show our appreciation and to recognize Sarah Palin and her historic achievement. It is also a tribute to America's hard working women and to further promote the attitude and philosophy that Sarah Palin has demonstrated throughout her life. Lakota Industries will donate 10% of the proceeds from the sale of these beautifully handcrafted bows to the National Association for Down Syndrome.

What I've Been Working On

Dentist

Nothing new with me. I went to the dentist yesterday for a clean up. It went pretty well! The young girl who cleaned my teeth was really nice! We talked about how much we both like Sarah Palin! Well, I tried talking:)
