Survey: My 1st (last & only) baby.

My friend Brenda had this one on her blog, so here I go.....

Here you go mommies - a different kind of survey for a change - it's all about you and your first baby.

1. Were you married at the time?
Yes, for 1 year

2. What were your reactions?
I can't say I was shocked but I was definitely happy.

3. How old were you?
I was 27.

4. How did you find out you were pregnant?
We had planned to get pregnant because out best friends had just gotten pregnant, so I went off the pill in Nov. I took a couple of tests in Dec but they came back negative. Since I had just started school we began to think maybe we should wait, so I talked to my Dr. about taking something to get my period started again so I could go back on the pill. I had been feeling sick with the flu (and kind of nauseous). So we figured I better take another test just to be sure. I sent my hubby in to check the results and he came back and said "nope". So I thought oh well, then for some reason I went in to check it myself and it was positive.

5. Who did you tell first?
I think we told my mom 1st.

Yes there was no way i was waiting 9 months to shop and have to have an ambiguous room.

Yes, though I was more nauseous, than sick, but I definitely had to pull the car over a few times.

A day at the fair.

Image
We had a busy day today! 1st we tried to get a little schoolwork done, then Bug and I headed to our church for "Breakaway". This is a time for all the moms to get together once a month. We get to spend some time in prayer, some time talking and getting to know one another a little better and of course spend sometime eating, because when can a big group of women get together and there not be food involved. It was a lot of fun and they have changed the format somewhat this year, so it should be interesting. After Breakaway we headed to the fair and met Blue. Bug had such a blast riding the rides. He is of course now more that big enough for all of the kiddie rides, he even branched out and rode on some of the bigger rides in the afternoon. He was a little nervous at 1st so I told him to ask this girl if he could sit be her. Of course she said yea and you can see him chatting her up in the 1st pic. (If he stays as outgoing as he is now his teen years should be a breeze. ha ha ...

No Bug for the week

This week Bug is going to a VBS at a local church, it runs from 9-3. Which is very nice in a way but also very strange. I took him in this morning and hung out with him for a few minutes while he got adjusted, then I went to the grocery store. Which was all fine but when I had to pass back by the church to head home it felt weird not having him, then all day at home I went back and forth between enjoying my time getting things done around the house and checking to see if it was time to pick him up yet. I got there to pick him up about 15 min early and waited around anxiously, when he finally came out he looked so tired, he seemed to have a good time but he did say "they sang for HOOUURRRS" and did not get to go out and play on the playground, but he is looking forward to going back tomorrow. This will be a strange week without him home all day. But it will be good practice for him because he will be going to a campfire day camp in a couple of weeks where he will be picked up ...

Friends at last

My buddy Kat and her girls ended up coming to town after all. They got in at 1:30 this morning. We all got up around 9:00 and spent the day shopping, playing in the fountain at the park downtown, riding the sky ride, then we went and got Mani/Pedi's, so fun! Tomorrow we are headed out to the water park for the day. Yea! It is so nice to have her over, she even dyed my hair for me this eve. I think it turned out cute, it's hard to tell for sure until you wash and style it the way you normally do. It only took me just short of 3 years to get her to come over and visit me, but with all her complaints about the drive I am sure it will be another 3 years before she comes back, but I sure am happy that she is here now. Our bad news for the day is that our oven went kaput. My husband was cooking up Lasagana and it was taking forever. I checked on it and mentioned that the oven didn't feel very hot and so when he checked it 15 min later he realized that the element went out on it. ...
