Oh the joys of motherhood...

Yesterday was my first official doctors appointment, I really hate those first ones! Everything was good and he told me i felt like i was further along than i thought, so that's a good thing! I also had to get 6 things of blood taken, i hate that too! I told the lady that i passed out pretty much every time and so we went and laid down and she just started poking always at my arm! She only had to poke me twice but she also blew one of my veins and rolled the other so my arm has some pretty good bruises today! Other than my doctors appointment, Me and Nancy took Grace to get some picture taken, they turned out really good and i'm excited to get them back!

I just was thinking about motherhood and how my views of it have changed as Grace has grown up! When she was just a baby i was scared to leave her and when i did for the first time i cried, even though we went to the 9 o'clock show and she slept the whole time! I also was freaked out about her eating sugar, peanut butter or pretty much anything they tell you not to give a baby. Other people didnt listen and gave her whatever they wanted and i would come home and cry to Kyle about it. Whenever she would spit up on herself i would hurry and clean it up and change her and never let her sit in her wet diaper. I listen to mothers to be or girls that dont even have kids in there near future and they talk like i thought. Now that Grace is older and i dont feel to good, she eats what she wants, even off the floor (I mean i dont feed her on the floor or anything, but if it falls i dont freak out, i just blow it off!!), and she is dirty, alot of the time and doesnt get clean till i bath her! I just think it is funny how life with a 2 year old really changes every thing!

When i was cleaning the house the other day, Grace was not helping! So i gave her a cupcake that we made thinking it would keep her happy till i loaded the dishwasher, but this is what really happened!!! So after loading the dishes i cleaned the floor!!

Grace is going to be a cute little fairy witch thing for Halloween and she loves the hat so she wears it around the house, Jerrica got her dog a witch costume so we put it on Trudy and Grace loved it, the cat not so much!! Grace sure does love MaKala, today she had to be right next to her and when i would go close she told me "mom go away this is my baby!" So she babysat today, she is going to be a great big sister!!

I thought i better get on here and post something today! Its not that i sleep or sit around all the time but when I'm feeling good i try to clean the house or comb Graces hair or brush her teeth!!! I'm taking Zofran and my doctor said its not suppose to make you tired but i swear I'm always tired and if i don't take them every 4 hours i get sick all over again! Pretty much everything about this pregnancy has been different. When i was pregnant with Grace i had the pregnancy glow, this time the only time my face is glowing is after i have got done throwing up!! Not to mention that my face is so broke out. I go to the the doctor on Monday for my first official appointment, I'm not looking forward to that!! I am now 10 weeks and our due date in not until May 15th, a long time aways!!

Nancy gives me all of her women's day magazines and i LOVE them, they have the coolest stuff and always have cute cupcakes to make, well i got a wild idea and decided that i would try and make some cupcakes. It was a good fun idea till i had 50 cupcakes baked then didn't really want to decorate them, but i did anyways and this is how they turned out! Not to bad right...

Yesterday was Jakell 18th birthday and she decided that my Grandma should make her pizza so they came over to my house and made some pizza and sat around and talked, i put my Grandma and Mom to work on the cupcakes so they could get done! It was fun, Jakell had to work till 8 so we made pizzas and ate them before the birthday girl even got there, but she didn't care!

This is just a picture of Grace, I was sitting at the computer and she brought her huge baby in and told me to kiss her!!
That's about all that is going on here, Kyle gets to go take his mid-term test on Monday so we have been studying, Hope everyone is doing good!

As many of you have probably notice, i've been a blog slacker. Not only has my blog been slacking, but everything else in life has been slacking too! My house in a disaster most of the time, i'm lucky, well actually i think it is kyle who is lucky when i shower and shave, and i just dont do much of anything but sleep for about the last 9 weeks!
We were going to keep it a secret for alot longer, but i got sick and needed some help! So our big news is out, yes after trying for awhile we are finally pregnant!
We are really excited and i think my sickness is under control for now so life is good! Being pregnant with a 2 year old is alot harder than just being pregnant. Poor Kyle and Grace pretty much have to fen for themselves and make due! The pills that i am on are helping with the sickness but make me really slow and tired, i defiantly wont be driving anywhere when i take them! But i do recommend them if you are pregnant and cant hold anything down!
Anyways i was told that i had to post about our news, so here it is. Now you all know why i am never on here and why i never comment, call, or text you back!!!
I hope everyone is doing good!!!

It has been a long time since i have posted anything, mostly because i have been sick and SO busy!
I have been baby sitting little MaKala and going from one to two kids over night and not having 9 months to prepare for it is hard! I use to blog, stitch, clean, and just sit around while Grace took her nap, but now i hold and play with the baby, it probably doesn't help that Grace is trying to give up her nap! She is really such a great baby to watch, and Grace loves her! I just wish i could get more done than i have been!
2 weeks ago me and Grace got a horrible cold! We both laid around all week and gave our cold to everyone!
Then the next week Kyle went up to School and left me and Grace here at the house all week, i had a migraine for 5 days and so everything i planed on doing didn't get done! I think the head aches went along with the cold cause everyone that has it now has the bad headaches!
After Kyle got home on Thursday we decided that we were going to make the trip to Marysvale on Friday after i got done babysitting! Kyle really wanted to go pine hen hunting and so he went and stayed at the trailer and i stayed at my grandmas. We didn't see each other much cause he was seriously gone hunting the whole weekend. He got quite a few of the birds and is planning on me cooking them this week for him, but they stink to high heaven! Anyways I got to see all the family down there and i even got to see Steph and Kenadi. She is so big, shes crawling everywhere and she is so dang cute!
Kyle decided that we were going to leave at 7:30 PM on Sunday, i don't really care cause i sleep the whole time anyways. So we leave and didn't get home till 11:00 and walk into our 90 degree house, yes 90 degrees, our air condition broke. Thank goodness the next morning we got somebody to come and look at it but the diagnosis was not great. The moter broke so we got that fixed and they said that the whole thing could break at anytime and we needed a new one. They then told us how much they were, and holy cow I'm going to get into the air conditioner business!
So my house is still torn up inside, outside, now we need a new air conditioner, thank goodness its only my home that's falling apart!!!

Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks....

Aunt Jakell gave Grace this huge sucker and it got everywhere and Grace loved it, I on the other hand didn't!! Kyle has our front yard all ripped out and he's going to re plant our grass and do a few other things to it! Hopefully that will get done this winter, its finally cooling down so he can start working outside more!
Grandpa Penn bought Grace a bag of M&M's and she got them all over in her teeth, she looked so funny i would just laugh at her then she would make this face at me and we'd both laugh!
My poor sick girl, i had been picking up the house and i couldn't hear Grace playing anymore and i found her sleeping with her babies right next to her!!
On Friday morning Kyle was playing with Grace outside when he told me to bring him the camera!! I guess my cat killed this HUGE scorpion. They are the ugliest things and i hate them!! Grace and Josie fell asleep on the way to Marysvale, Josie slept on her like this for a long time, i think its so cute!! All the leaves were changing, and it was so pretty, i love this time of year!!

Just Stuff

Well there has not been a lot going on here, we have been trying to get stuff ready for our new doors to be put in and it has been a pain in the behind! We finally did get them and our base boards and the guy will be here on Monday to put them in, then we can get started on the floors! I really couldnt handle looking at my off white wall anymore so we are in the middle of painting the walls tan and the ceiling, doors, and base board white! It is really looking good, but i have nothing on the walls and no curtains so it looks like we are moving in again!

The other day grace wanted to watch 102 dalmatians so i put it on and was doing stuff around the house and i found her passed out! Shes so funny she likes to have her dolls be her when she sleeps!!

You can see what a difference paint makes, i'm excited to have it all done!! When we were painting and stuff grace decided she would eat a plum and she ate almost the whole thing then went and got herself a peach!
I dont know what she is doing here but she just sat there talking to Josie and Josie just laid there and listened!
Last weekend Jerrica came out so we went to my moms house and watched a movie and just hung out, it was alot of fun! Grace got Grandma to dress up and have tea with her, they all do anything Grace tells them too, i wonder why she is so spoiled!
This weekend i'm putting Kyle to work again, he has to get as much as he can done cause he's leaving me next weekend and all week to go to school! Then we are off to Marysvale so he can go hunting and i can go to Meagan and Dave reception! If i dont get floors in and my walls all the way painted soon i think i'm going to go crazy!
