Have I turned the corner???

I think I have...I honestly think I'm on the Up and Up! Today I had the most energy I've had in 3 months. I didn't even get a lot of sleep last night, and I worked this morning at 7am so I was up at 6 ( thank gosh for no commute anymore). I actually drank my full Americano, I ate breakfast and an orange without choking it down, My vitamin didn't come back out in the sink, and I never once had to throw up! I'm so happy, I think I'm on the Mend.

Now, after I worked all day, I came home, raked the whole back yard, and cleaned out half of my Very large flower Bed, made stirfry for dinner with BEEF, ate it up just fine, and i'm still full of piss and vinigear. I've also blogged a lot, and I don't feel like I'm hunger over...please please please let the heavens allow me to no longer be sick, I'll do anything!!

Speaking of my yard we hired a landscaping company to come and do a good spring clean up with power rake, arrate, and trimming, and cleaning out flower beds. I should of known they'd be crap, they made a huge mess and I'm better doing it myself. I love yard work but I thought i'd be to sick and tired to get through. I suprised myself, I quite enjoyed it, it was good exercise, and its always rewarding seeing a nice yard. We had all our oustide windows washed today, they look great!

Soo all in all I'm SOOO Happy that I feel good, Health is very important.

Oh, to top it off I got a photo Radar ticket in the mail, my first one. I wanted someone to blame it on but i couldn't. I was so mad at myself, I learn my lesson about every 3 years!

Sleepless in Calgary!

Tino had been away all weekend, and I never sleep when he is gone. I got home really late last night from my friends party, it was snowing heeps! I left all the lights on outside so it would be a bright walk from the garage to the door. I was So tired so i left all the lights on outside so no robbers would come creeping into the bright yard, i left the kitchen light on, the hallway light on, my bathroom light on, and slept with the blinds open so the boogy man wouldn't get me and set the alarm. After all that I finally fell asleep. When I got up this morning and came downstairs.........I had left the door unlocked ALL NIGHT LONG!!!!!!!! I had a good laugh.

11 Weeks

Today Marks 11 weeks Pregnant. I had my pre-natal physical yesterday, and we went through everything. She answered all my questions and concerns and i feel very comfortable with her, and I feel very confident she know's what she is talking about. She is so supportive about all decisions and very open to supporting anything I believe in. She is great, I'm so happy I found her, and I was able to refer her to my close girls!

Although I'm just shy of 3 months, we already started talking about delivery, which OBGYN I'd like to see, what hospital etc. When I really think about it, its only 6 months away. WOW, but in the grand sceme of things, I still need to take things day by day with all day sickness and body changes.

Speaking of being sick, I got the stomach flu on sunday night. HOLY CRAP that was bad. Sunday was the first day I felt good in evening, although I barfed twice in the bay that afternoon hahaha. Tino and I had a nice dinner, went for a walk and had angel food and strawberries for dessert, life was great until 5am. I thought it was morning sickness etc. I had to work at 4pm so i figured I had time to get over it. It never ended, for 2 days. I was in bed for 2 whole days with all the marvelous things that come with the stomach flu. I cried a couple times because I felt so helpless. By tuesday night, I had a trusty Grilled cheese and I was on the mend!!! YAHOOO...who doesn't love grilled cheese, its my staple right now, along with PB and toast! Our life has gone from grilled salmon fancy wine and soft cheese and tomatoes to my staples. Tino is such a trooper!


I just have to say, when i was getting married, my mind was on wedding, photographers, dress, wine, stags, registry, invitations, etc. It was all about the wedding. Now that I'm pregnant, its all about the that. I read it, sleep it, talk about it and ask ALOT OF QUESTIONS!! Thank gosh I have alot of Calgary girlfriends that have had babies. These girls are so honest with me, but in a kind way. Which dr I should choose, where I should deliver, what breast pump should I buy, do put vaseline on the babies bum? What diapers do you love, which sleep book did you follow, How bad did it hurt hahahaha. These girls are pro's already and now that i've asked these questions, it helps me to make a decison based right from the horses mouth as opposed to my book or pregnancy magazine!

Thanks to all my Baby momma friends out there!

Have a great weekend
