Am I What???

So Thursday night was Meet The Teacher night up at our school, where all the kids and parents can come and meet their teacher, see their new classroom, fill out a few papers, etc. Then out of nowhere this dad (whom I've never met) asks "so when are you due?" TOTALLY catching me off guard b/c this was the first time someone noticed I was pregnant without being told first!...I was so excited and startled I said "umm uhh end of January"..I think I pretty much floated on cloud nine the rest of that night. David and I were talking about it today, and we decided that the next stranger that asks when I'm due, I'm going to say "due for what?" and see what kind of expression I get playing like I have no idea...lol..I don't think I'm mean enough to do that..but oh man it would be funny!

New Favorite Song

This is seriously my favorite new song. Not my favorite of all time, but my favorite of all the newest songs on the radio right now. I'm adding it to my playlist, it should be playing right now, so pay attention, and TURN IT UP!!!! :0) BTW-I realize that in reality Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash didn't start out in the best of ways...but seriously listen to the words and you can feel the unmovable love they had.

Johnny And June - Heidi Newfield
Oh there's something 'bout a man in black,Makes me want to buy a cadillac,Throw the top back,And roll down to Jackson town,I wanna be there on the stage with you,You and I could be the next rage to,Hear the crowd roar,Make 'em one more,I'll kick the footlights out,I wanna love like Johnny and June,Rings of fire burnin' with you,I wanna walk the line,Walk the line,'Till the end of time,I wanna love,Love ya that much,Cash it all in,Give it all up,When you're gone,I wanna go too,Like Johnny and June,I wanna hold you baby right or wrong,Build a world around a country song,Pray a sweet prayer,Follow you there,Down in history,I wanna love like Johnny and June,Rings of fire burnin' with you,I wanna walk the line,Walk the line,'Till the end of time,I wanna love,Love ya that much,Cash it all in,Give it all up,When you're gone,I wanna go too,Like Johnny and June,Like Johnny and June,More than life itself,No-one else,This here is promise,They don't make love like that anymore,Is that too much to be askin' for,I wanna love like Johnny and June,Rings of fire burnin' with you,I wanna walk the line,Walk the line,'Till the end of time,I wanna love,Love ya that much,Cash it all in,Give it all up,When you're gone,I wanna go too,Like Johnny and June,Like Johnny and June,And when we're gone,There'll be no tears to cry,Only memories of our lives,They'll remember, remember,A love like that.

Confession

I'm an eating machine today..this morning DH made me 2 eggs and 2 small pieces of sausage, then when I got to church I had a banana, after church I had about 10 pringles, then went over to the in-laws for lunch where I had pork loin, 2 SMALL helpings of salad, and a big helping of rice. As soon as lunch was over I went and grabbed chips out of their pantry...what the heck is wrong with me???

Kick!!

I've felt little flutters here and there for quite a few weeks now. Only once or twice has David been able to feel the flutters...the baby is small and basically in the middle of me, so I can really only feel the movement from the inside for the most part...until tonight when the baby starting kicking like crazy, I yelled for David and we both sat there in amazement as the bean practiced karate on my uterus! It was the strongest movements I have felt the entire 4 months...SO VERY COOL !! I can't wait until the movements are more frequent so the rest of my family can feel the bean too!...also...in 22 days (baby cooperating) we will be able to call the baby by it's real name instead of "the bean". :0)

14wk. appt.

We had our 14wk appt yesterday. The nurse started off by weighing me..I'm now back to my pre-pregnancy weight (I lost 4 pounds in the first trimester). No ultrasound this time, but they did use the fetal heart monitor and goo on my belly to find the heartbeat. This time it was in the 150's. I broke the news to my dr. that I wanted a natural birth, and thankfully she was supportive. I told her that I've been getting headaches every day, and let me tell you she did not look a bit surprised. Apparently my hormones are still fluctuating up and down, which in return causes headaches, and she told me I can expect them frequently until about week 20. YAY! :-( On to the WONDERFUL NEWS...we scheduled the BIG ultrasound for Sept. 3...so in just (haha, "just" who am I kidding) in 5 weeks we will know the gender of this wonderful bean growing inside me!! SAHWEET!!!
