3 years ago...

2010-09-30T14:42:00.000-06:00

I can't believe it has really been 3 years. I was miserable...and ready to be done with my pregnancy and hold my baby boy in my arms. What I didn't know is just how lucky I was to have him as early as I had him. I realise now, looking back, that had I gone to my due date, we might not have our amazing big boy. Why? I've not told this story to anyone. I've not shared these feelings with anyone

To much thinking...

2010-05-31T17:27:00.000-06:00

Mom and I have been talking...lots lately...about when Ken and I are going to try for baby number two. My initial thought was based on the following: Not this year because: 1)We'd be taking a 6 month old to Disney world Dec 2011 2)We still have 2 CC's that need to be settled. Not next year because: 1)I'd be no more than 20 weeks pregnant in Dec 2011 (for our Disney trip) So, it was looking

So excited

2010-05-25T11:16:00.000-06:00

After nearly 2.5 weeks, I am happy to say my Chase card is settled. They wouldn't honor the collection agencies remaing 2 payments of the settlement. However, all the money we DID pay to the collection agency was forwarded to Chase and subtracted from the balance. So the new settlement was based on the remaining amount (like $5578). They wanted half that amount. But I was firm in what I could

Sunday...

2010-04-02T14:10:00.002-06:00

This Sunday, April 4th marks the 2nd anniversary of my dear Uncle Wes' passing. Because I know I will be too busy this weekend to stop and post about it, I'm doing so today. May he continue to rest in peace. I'm sure he's up there hunting or riding ATV's though. It's what he enjoyed doing most. You're missed everyday. We love you.

Disney on Ice...re-do

2010-03-08T17:56:00.000-07:00

Yup. That's right. We're getting ready to hit Disney on Ice...AGAIN! And I can't wait! This time I'm taking my camera and taking pictures. :D It will be sooooooooooo much fun. Every time Keegan sees a commercial for it on TV, he gets this smile on his face and you can just see the memories in his head flooding to the forefront and remembering it. :D I'll be sure to post pictures this weekend

A New Year...

2010-01-06T13:22:00.000-07:00

A very new layout for the blog. As you can see, the picture of the three of us above is a very recent one. Thought I'd post it. And I suppose I can keep updating it every so often. It fits us very well. Happy New Year to all! Hope it finds everyone healthy and well. So far, we are all healthy and well. Keegan is on the road to 3. As well as the road to being potty trained. I think once we get

Disney on Ice

2009-12-14T12:52:00.000-07:00

Took Keegan to his first Disney on Ice show Saturday. He LOVED it. And watching him watch the show made me cry happy tears and fall in love with him all over again. In fact, there is another show coming to town in March. And I need to call this week and see about getting tickets. We got a flyer after the show Saturday and through the 31st of this month, we can get $4 off per ticket. However,

Wow

2009-12-08T11:18:00.000-07:00

Been a long time since my last update. Oops. Oh well. Keegan is talking like crazy! Repeats EVERYTHING we say...which means we really have to watch what we say now. lol He's gotten taller, and looks older every day. :( And just when I thought I couldn't love him anymore, I find myself totally in love all over again. He's in LOVE with the Mickey Mouse Club House ChooChoo Train special my dad

Wonderful...

2009-08-24T18:44:00.002-06:00

Things are going wonderfully in the Lewis household.Ken and I are getting date nights or days every other week. Which is helping our relationship emensly. We were having issues for a while...not feeling as connected and generally just stressed and irritated at each other over money and work and parenting. But, it is getting better.Keegan is doing great. Can't believe he'll be 23 months old in

Super duper excited!

2009-07-09T10:56:00.002-06:00

So, let me preface this by saying yesterday was the day Astrologers were all excited for because at 4:56 am*, the numbers would line up with the date (*more on that in a minute, cause I also heard it a different way) and good things were supposed to happen. *shrugs* Don't know how much I believe it, but to each there own.Anywho! Ken had his yearly review yesterday...and got great marks (so to

And so starts the road...

2009-06-28T17:41:00.002-06:00

To my baby boy, becoming a big boy.I've been contemplating in the back of my head for the last month or so moving him to a toddler bed and out of the crib. Well, mom, dad and I went through the storage unit yesterday and it got me thinking further of moving him sooner rather than later as I had planned. We're having a yard sale in a couple weeks and got to thinking it would much easier to move

Trip...

2009-06-23T18:44:00.005-06:00

We have been back from our trip to Red Bluff for a week now. I know. I'm slow with getting pictures posted. :P As well as updating on how things went.In short (I'll update a more detailed post with a few pics later this week), it went really well. Keegan did fantastic on the plane (I think it had to do with him being in his carseat and not crawling all over our laps), pretty well on the drive up

My poor baby

2009-06-04T21:33:00.003-06:00

Took an unintentional dip in the neighbors shallow (3ft deep) pond tonight. He'd leaned over to splash in the water and just fell right in. :(Ken says he held his breath...I don't know. My adrenaline kicked in and reached in and pulled him out by his leg. We're also pretty sure he didn't hit his head on anything. I was shaking like a leaf once Ken came back with a towel and we all headed home.

New Camera...

2009-05-26T11:31:00.001-06:00

Was surprised with a new camera late last week.I LOVE it. It takes beautiful pictures.I need to go get a camera case/bag for it and be oh so careful with it so as not to break it.Posting pics on Keegan's website.I'll update this blog again later today.

Well...

2009-05-15T13:28:00.003-06:00

The news is...I'm out of the boot.Thank goodness. I couldn't have imagined travelling in 4 weeks and still having to wear it. And while the doc didn't say I had to wear an ace bandage, I feel I get more support with it...so I'm doing an ace bandage.I was also told no flip-flops; tennis shoes or strap on sandles onle. :( Not my idea of a fun summer...but I have to do whatever it takes to make sure

Disney 2010 Trip?

2009-05-13T18:19:00.002-06:00

I hope so.I'm dying to go again.After going back to the DIS boards this week and reading some trip reports and pre trip reports, it sets my heart and mind a racing to go again.I text messaged Ken and told him I want to go (tenatively) Christmas 2010. And really, we should be financially able to. Our CC should be close to paid off in the next 9 to 10 months (prime planning and booking time for a

Long time...

2009-04-30T10:32:00.003-06:00

No update. LolNot a lot going on in the Lewis family right now.We are getting closer to our mini-vacation to see Ken's parents. I was really excited to be going...until I hurt myself last Friday.What did I do last Friday? I sprained my ankle terribly. How?I was carrying Keegan, his diaper bag, my purse, his blanket, and my water bottle down the stairs, on our way out the door to have lunch with

No idea what to call this

2009-03-02T11:57:00.003-07:00

I have no idea what to call this post.I have been meaning to post something here the last three days. And I've had too much other stuff going on.It seems right now there is a lot on my mind. So I guess the best thing to do is to just start a list of what's been on my mind. Both good and bad...well, not so bad...but negative.Octo-mom. I am so tired of seeing this woman in the news. There are so

Baby Fever...

2009-02-18T17:19:00.003-07:00

I'm not drinking the water. :PMy neighbors daughter is pregnant and due Sept. 5th. A really good friend of mine is pregnant and due Oct. 5th (isn't that just strange and cool).I am so not drinking the water. They say things happen in 3's...so...I'm wondering who else I know will be (or is) pregnant next. :P I know it won't be me. One is enough for now.

Wow...

2009-02-05T23:03:00.002-07:00

So, I've been reading through tons of my old entries both here and on Myspace.Amazing the things I used to blog about.I miss it sometimes. And I suppose if my son would let me, I could blog about the random stuff he does. :PAnywho.Just finished reading the blog on myspace about Keegan's birth. Krissi commented that all the scary/difficult c-section birth of him meant is that he'd be a trouble

Election Opinion

2008-11-05T13:14:00.003-07:00

First of all. I have to say that it was an amazing presidential race. And I am so glad Obama won. I think he has what it takes to push this country in a new direction. Yes. All those for McCain say he is inexperienced and blah blah blah. But...he knows, I believe, what the country needs. Yeah, we may have some hard times (some say we should look out for terrorist attacks, what the heck...the

Wow...

2008-09-24T13:51:00.004-06:00

I was thinking yesterday that I needed to blog.Why?Because I was thinking about how 1 year ago, I was miserable...tired of being pregnant and just wanting my son to be here already. How my parents rushed over and walked me around the neighborhood and helped make me feel better until Ken got home that evening and then they went home.I owe my parents for that. They were awesome during that time.

Another day, another blog

2008-09-02T13:30:00.002-06:00

Today hasn't been a very productive day. At least it doesn't feel that way to me. Sure, I'm nearly done with laundry (I have 2 loads in now and 2 more to do after that). I got my chores done. And now I'm sitting here waiting on the stupid Salvation Army to get here to pick up the loveseat and recliner we're getting rid of. Pick up window for that...12:30-3:30. Ugh. So 2 more hours till I can call

Long time...no update...

2008-08-29T16:53:00.002-06:00

I need to start blogging again. And now, hopefully, with everyone back to work, and the house to myself and Keegan, I will get to blog at least once a week. Seems a lot has happened since my last post. Ken and I got married in July and I am still in the process of getting my name changed on my license and social security card (I'm lazy, what can I say). Keegan is nearly a year old. And our trip

Bitter Sweet

2008-04-06T16:34:00.003-06:00

We lost a dear person in our family Friday. My mom's brother...my uncle...my grandpa's son...Wes. It is a sad loss...yet has allowed me to reflect the last couple of days on how short life can be. And how it's important to keep in touch with family...rather than just coming together in times of sorrow or joy.I've not been online much the past few days. With the funeral of my uncle coming up

Wow...time flies...

2008-04-01T16:21:00.004-06:00

My baby is 6 months old today. Grammy bought him a vanilla cupcake. We'll strip him down to his diaper and put him in the high chair after he wakes up and put it in front of him to see what he does with it. I doubt he does anymore than just play in it. But, it'll still be fun. :D I'll be sure to post some pictures later. Anyhow. Happy 6 month birthday, my big boy!

2008-03-21T18:59:00.001-06:00

I need to do better at updating this thing. :P But, having an almost 6 month old is a job in itself. :DAll is going well. Ken and I are getting our finances in order (thank god)...and we're planning a 7 day trip to DisneyWorld in December for Christmas. So, bear with me if this blog turns more into a planning and spewing info on what to do and where to go rather than an update on life. :D

Long time...

2008-02-14T15:07:00.002-07:00

It's been far too long since I've updated.Heck, I didn't even update when Keegan was born. :DJust a quick run down: Keegan was born 10-01-2007 at 11:12pm via c-section. He weighed 6lbs 10oz and was 20.5 inches long. He is now 4 months old, weighs 14lbs 3oz and is 25 niches long. He's outgrown all his 3 month clothes. And is comfortably in 6-9 month clothes. He's a little sweetie and I'm LOVING

19 days...

2007-09-21T15:38:00.000-06:00

Wow.Time has just flown with this pregnancy. I can't believe it.And might I add, Grammy FINALLY got to see Keegan move the other weekend. Didn't get to feel him, but she got to see him.We still have no progress so far...still closed and tight according to the doctor on Wednesday. We don't go see him again until the 2nd of Oct because he is on vacation next week. So, I have another 11 days before

Wow...

2007-09-03T18:00:00.000-06:00

Time seems to be slowing down now.Two weeks ago I was amazed at how fast time was flying.I jinxed it. :P It is now crawling...really...really...really slow. :PAnd Keegan is making poor Grammy feel bad. Ken got to feel him really move on the way to our 34 week appointment last week. Dad got to see him move while I was at their house on Saturday. But Grammy...still hasn't gotten to see or feel him.

Looking back...

2007-08-20T21:57:00.001-06:00

I can't believe how time has flown through-out this pregnancy. I have days where I feel like we just found out we're pregnant.Then I have days where I'm like "Is it over yet?"All in all, it's been an amazing time. And I can't wait until the day I deliver our baby boy and get to hold him for the first time.And in just 7 short weeks, I will (hopefully) be holding my precious little boy. :D

2007-08-16T21:55:00.000-06:00

Take this as what you will. I decided tonight I've had enough with holding crap in and being afraid to speak my mind. So I'm using an idea from a friend, and getting it all out this way.1. I love you so much. I honestly can't imagine my life without you. You make me laugh every day and are always willing to help when I ask. I cannot wait until we finally decide to say "I do" and are finally

Here's how I'm doin'

2007-08-13T15:54:00.000-06:00

Because Myspace blogs are being retarded...I'll update here. :PFirst of all, this baby is moving this afternoon. Usually it's his most inactive time of day. Feels like he's rolling around in there and doing some gymnastic moves or something. :P I actually sat here and watched the top of my belly move...I think he either kicked or punched me. :D Silly boy. :D (Psst...Tasch, it's the coolest thing

2007-08-10T15:54:00.000-06:00

I am so incredibly tired. And I shouldn't be. However, I think it's because the baby shower is tomorrow, Ken's parents are still at least 7 hours away (I'd hoped they would have been here by now or sooner than 7pm tonight), and my house has been taken over by my mom and SIL (they're decorating). :PI'm incredibly nervous about tomorrow...especially since I'm sure we won't be seeing Ken's parents

A letter to my unborn baby...

2007-08-02T15:08:00.000-06:00

Dear Keegan,I love you very much. And I can't wait for the day that you're born.However, I have a few things you're doing that cause mommy discomfort.Please refrain from laying on, poking, prodding, or otherwise messing with my bladder. I really don't enjoy going to the restroom every 30 minutes only for very little to actually come out.Please kick and squirm and play while mom is awake. I enjoy

30 week appointment today...

2007-08-01T10:16:00.000-06:00

It went well.Everything is normal and looking good. He was a little concerned about my low blood sugar episodes, but after talking to him, we think it's because I need to go back to eating like every 2-3 hours max rather than not snacking in between meals like 2nd trimester. So, I'll try that and see what happens. He did say too that this would be the time that I find myself slightly dizzy or

Dang...

2007-07-27T14:26:00.000-06:00

So last night we walked into Chili's for dinner. I felt extremely weak and had the shakes. Waitress brought our drinks and some chips and salsa. I had ice tea and sweetened it. Thought maybe I needed a little sugar and something in my tummy so ate some chips. Dinner came, I was pouring the dressing on my salad and my hand was still shaking. Poor Ken was worried...asked if I was going to be ok. I

Pregnancy update...

2007-07-20T15:11:00.000-06:00

I'm so horrible about updating my blog. :PSo much has gone on since the last post. :PKeegan is growing like a weed...or so it feels like it to me. He's always rolling around or kicking or punching. He also likes to settle himself and make mommy uncomfy...especially while I'm working. He'll settle up high, near my ribs. It doesn't hurt so much as cause a lot of pressure where he's pushing and

Exciting night...

2007-06-11T20:56:00.000-06:00

Just wanted to post a little blog about some exciting news from tonight.I've been putzing around this evening watching tv, cooking dinner, and working on laundry. The last time I went and messed with laundry, I was coming back out into the living room rubbing my belly like usual. I could feel Keegan stretching/wiggling around so I walked over to Ken, grabbed his hand and put it on my belly where

Yay!

2007-06-11T11:15:00.000-06:00

Guess Friday's mini-rant was all for...well...nothing.I guess. :pThe doctor's MA called me back this morning. Asked what was going on with the clinic and appointment. I told her. She relayed it to Dr. Mike (who was sitting there beside her), and I heard him say "oh. I didn't know that. Just give her the other number." So, Deanna gave me the number to the other clinic, and said she'd fax over the

Ugh...

2007-06-08T09:10:00.000-06:00

Good grief. Getting ahold of my doctor's medical assitant is like trying to get in touch with the President of the US. I swear. I ranted about this on MySpace Blog yesterday and it's still on going. What's going on is, we had our 22 week appointment yesterday. Doctor did an ultra sound and was checking for development anomalies or abnormalities. Unfortuneatly, he couldn't get the images he wanted

In an article on People.com, Rumer Willis is quoted as having said this:Willis, who has been photographed around L.A. with Lohan, says the actress's age, 20, should be taken into consideration. "I think it's definitely hard growing up in L.A. with all of the things that you have to deal with, and being so young," Willis said. "I think sometimes people don't realize the amount of pressure that can

I'm so hungry...

2007-05-30T11:54:00.000-06:00

And I can't have what I'm craving because there isn't one close enough to work.That sucks.I've had Sonic like every day since Sunday. Their tots and Chicken BLT are my new craving. Mmmmmmmmmmm.Anywho. So, I suppose it's back to Wendy's today.

Half way through the week...

2007-05-09T08:52:00.000-06:00

Thank goodness we're at the halfway point.I need the week to be over.I'm tired, slightly cranky, and poor Ken, all he wants to do this week is go see Spiderman, but I'm so tired when I get home from work, I told him last night he should just go see it by himself during the day. :( I feel bad. Because he wants it to be like a date night for us...something fun and out of the norm (read: not staying

yay!!

2007-05-07T18:35:00.000-06:00

She's here! :D Just got the text from Krissi herself. Savannah is here, and mom and baby are doing good...though mom is a bit exhausted! I don't want to pass on too much info, as Krissi I'm sure will want to share the most exciting details (time,weight, length). :P So, I'll just say... SHE'S FINALLY HERE! I so can't wait to see her. :D

Patiently waiting...

2007-05-07T12:17:00.000-06:00

Krissi has been at the hospital since around 1:30 this morning. Her water broke around 1. I was super excited to get the text at 1:15 that they were on their way to the hospital. And then at 5am when John text to say Krissi was going to be induced at 6.I've been waiting and waiting and waiting to hear that precious little Savannah is here and doing well. But, still...nothing.So. I'll sit and wait

Cause Tasch wants to know...

2007-05-04T17:18:00.000-06:00

Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwhich (plain), med fry, med ice tea, and the all important med chocolate frosty.It tasted soooooooooo good. And I'm finally starting to geel much better and less bloated. Thank goodness.Ok. That's it for now. May be going to pick something up for dinner after bit...or just having a sald...I can't decide. :p

Ugh...

2007-05-04T14:14:00.000-06:00

Can I just say I ate too fast and feel really bloated and stuffed?But damn it sure tasted good. :DAnywho.

Sooooooooooooooooo tired...

2007-04-18T15:27:00.000-06:00

I don't know what it is, but I am so exhausted it's not even funny. I've felt a few times as though if I close my eyes, even to blink, I'm going to fall asleep. Which is not a good thing, considering I have to drive myself home in an hour. Hopefully, I'll be a bit more lively by the time I go home. I also overstuffed myself at lunch...which is not a good thing...cause I feel pukey now. :( Oh

yay!

2007-04-17T21:09:00.000-06:00

Just a really short post.We bought a crib tonight. :D And I couldn't be happier. :DNow we'll just have to get it put back together. But, that should be pretty easy. :P We'll see though. :DOnce we get it put together, I'll take pictures and post. :P (I know, you all are saying "yeah right, we still haven't seen pictures of the townhouse". I promise...I'll get it done this weekend.)

No words...

2007-04-16T12:28:00.000-06:00

Perhaps later...once I've had a chance to process and get past the inital sadness and grief of the Virginia Tech shooting.I do not know anyone who attends there, but all campus shootings always hit really close to home for me.I know later I will have the words to express the feelings rushing through me, but right now, there are none.Though my thoughts, prayers, and good wishes go out to the

Oy...

2007-04-11T11:24:00.000-06:00

So much going on right now.So much to update on and really no time to update on. So, I'll give a brief version.I've been pukey sick since Friday night. Pretty sure it's a mild case of the bug my nephew and mom had.Ken was in a minor one car accident Sunday morning on his way to work. (He fish-tailed on the ice and was unable to regain control or slow down enough to avoid hitting the concrete

Shorter weekends??

2007-03-31T19:43:00.000-06:00

Seems like my weekends have become shorter since I moved out of my parents house. Seriously. I don't want tomorrow to be Sunday already. But it is. And I'm not ready to go back to work. Icky poo. The weekend has been...uneventful so far. Unless of course you count me getting one important task out of the way today (I snapped the wire in my second to last bra Thursday at work, so I had to go buy

Been browsing the wedding sites & message boards...

2007-03-30T12:51:00.000-06:00

I know...we haven't even set a date. But, it's fun and often times helpful I would guess to peruse the sites and message forums.I'd like to comment though on the comments some of these women who are planning a wedding have been getting from others. I mean, wow. Some of the replies have been...harsh and quite rude...not to mention un called for in some cases. I mean, they snap at the poster for

Just a quick update...

2007-03-26T11:20:00.000-06:00

We got everything moved in, and for the most part put away on Friday and Saturday. We just have to work on the loft this week. It's kind of a mess right now cause Ken's trying to get his computer set back up, plus he's got to get the wireless home network and DSL connection set up. So, until he's got all those boxes unpacked and stashed in the storage up there, I really can't unpack my stuff.Also

Adios...

2007-03-22T16:26:00.000-06:00

For the weekend at least.After I leave work in a couple minutes, I lose all access to the internet.Ken will be hooking and setting up our wireless home network and DSL connections between Saturday night and next Friday. Once he's got it all done, we're back up and on the net.So, I shall be back in blog land Monday (from work). :D

...baffled and upset...rabmly...

2007-03-21T10:18:00.000-06:00

I was going to post about this Monday, and forgot.And then yesterday was far too busy to even remember what I was going to post in the first place.So, I shall post this today.Please let me preface this by saying, I love my sister dearly most of the time, but right now, I'm having a really hard time loving her.This all pretty much goes back to the conversation (of which, I know very little still)

The Monday I'd LOVE to forget...

2007-03-19T18:53:00.000-06:00

It was a bad Monday.Really bad.I woke up with a fracking headache and achey neck from sleeping wrong. :(Headache still hasn't gone away. I think it's going to take a cold compress after my shower. I hope that's all it takes.I'd also like to forget today because I just felt crappy all day. And as I was driving to Wendy's to get something to eat and drink, I felt really nausous and sick all of a

Yay! :D

2007-03-16T11:21:00.000-06:00

It's ours.It's really ours.We signed the paperwork, paid the pro-rated rent, and picked up the keys last night (after quite an ordeal). And now, it's ours for the next 13 months.We walked through it last night before we went to dinner. And while it appears smaller than I imagined, we've got to wait till we've made it "home" to really judge it. I am soooooooooo excited. Ken's going to start moving

Food, Hockey, and sleep...

2007-03-15T08:11:00.000-06:00

So, last night was pretty fun. I got home and Ken asked where we were going to dinner. I had no fracking clue because NOTHING sounded even remotely good. After much deliberation and trying to remember what restaurants were out near the Broomfield Event Center, I decided on Rock Bottom Brewery (as the last time I was there was like 5 years ago). So, we go, park, and walk in the door. The place is

Almost there...

2007-03-14T09:25:00.000-06:00

It's Wendesday. Which means the work week is nearly over.Thank goodness.The day is going slowly. I didn't sleep very well last night, due to having bought a new pillow as my old one wasn't supporting me any more. Plus, Ken was having a bout of insomnia. So, every time I'd roll over and re-position, it'd wake him up. Wasn't ready to get up this morning...but had to...or I would have been late to

Bring me my rubber boots...the BS is getting deep...

2007-03-13T08:52:00.000-06:00

The latest in the work BS... The son of the VP is telling everyone downstairs that we're going to be training his girlfriend to do my job when I go on maternity leave. Which is a bunch of BS cause he just asked my boss yesterday if she was hiring for the accounting department and my boss looked him in the eye and told him no. But to check with his dad to see if they could use her in the CSR

Monday was going well until this...

2007-03-12T13:36:00.000-06:00

Yeah. Not so happy anymore. Just found out the CSR here complained/cried to the owner of the company last week about not being able to get everything done every week. So, by order of the owner, she is to turn over the issuing of RMA's (returned-material-something or other) to our department...which means me. Yeah. Like I'll get it done in a more timely manner than her? I have to invoice for 2

Halfway through another week...

2007-03-07T08:43:00.000-07:00

Thank goodness it's Wednesday. My headache finally went away last night as I was fixing dinner. What helped was stopping at Wendy's for a Frosty when I left work. So, perhaps part of my problem was low blood sugar. I'll talk to the doctor about it for sure at our next appointment, and until then, I'll be taking up the suggestions from everyone yesterday, for any headaches between now and the 28th

Wow...

2007-03-06T10:27:00.000-07:00

I'm getting some killer headaches. But, according to the web, it's perfectly normal during the 1st and 3rd trimesters cause of hormone changes. But, it is something I will def talk to my doctor about during my next appointment. They aren't bad enough to keep me from working and all that, but, they are a pain and annoyance. So, we'll see. If any of you have any methods on how to control them and/

Dr. Mike

2007-02-28T12:12:00.000-07:00

Today was our first appointment with Dr. Mike. Needless to say, he is fantastic. He changed my due date to Oct. 10th based on the ultrasound. So, we'll see. :P He also did a pap...not the most fun, but, it had to be done. :p When he did the ultrasound, he said he only saw one heartbeat (yay!) and that the baby is developing like it should. It was really cool getting to see our baby in it's

Bleh.

2007-02-27T13:08:00.000-07:00

Ready for the week to be over...and it's only Tuesday. It's been a slow week. And it seems to only get slower. I woke up with a helluva headache today. And it's just now going away, after two rounds of Tylenol. Ugh. Not the way to go through a day. Tomorrow is our first appointment with the new doctor. And I'm going to have to go by my old doctor's office to have all my information trasferred

Wednesday...half way through another week...

2007-02-21T11:43:00.000-07:00

Thank god.This week needs to be over. After yesterday morning, and then a repeat of the same stuff this morning, I'm ready for the week to be over. :( This morning I was literally hunched over the toilet gaggin...because of sinus drainage. That sucked majorly. But, I'm better now. Albeit, I've had a fracking headache all day from sneezing and blowing my nose so much. I've also got to call my

2007-02-20T13:03:00.000-07:00

*yeah, forgot to post this yesterday...got busy at work*Bleh.It's already been a rough morning, and continues to be rough. :(Sinus' are draining today. Not a good feeling. Made me nearly puke before I left the house this morning. So I took my time getting ready for work. Left the house 20 minutes later than normal. Still feeling icky. Not so sure I won't be going home early to steam myself out in

6 weeks, 3 days

2007-02-19T13:11:00.000-07:00

As of today, I am 6weeks, 3 days pregnant. So far, the only symptoms I'm having are fatigue, and peeing...a lot! I do get bouts of nausea, but I think that may be partly due to the fact that I'm still learning how to eat right as far as several small meals throughout the day rather than just the standard 3. I find that if I wait too long between meals, I feel sickly. Likewise, if I don't eat

I am offically 6 weeks pregnant. :DI didn't start to suspect anything until I was 4 days past due on my cycle. I talked to Ken, let him know, and we decided I should pick up a test. Picked one up on teh 9th, and then took it before I got in the shower that night. Withing minutes, there was a very faint positive line. I showed Ken, and he was speechless. He looked as though he was in a dream. He

Bleh...

2007-02-11T17:18:00.000-07:00

So. Things are going. I will not be updating on the happenings I posted on MySpace blog. Those are better left posted there. Anywho. Mom was asking today when we were moving and all that. Now, I swear I've told her before, but then again, I may not have, but we're moving the 23rd and 24th. It's a Friday and Saturday. Ken's plan is to get everything moved out and in on Friday, and then spend

No Fucking way!!

2007-02-08T14:17:00.000-07:00

Anna Nicole Smith is dead??I'm shocked!And slightly suspicious. I mean, her son dies, mysteriously, in November. And now Anna Nicole is dead.With Dannilynn her only living child now, and Howard K. Stern Danni's supposed "father", something is odd here.

Happy Wednesday!

2007-02-07T11:24:00.000-07:00

OMG! What a Wednesday it's been. It started out with it being driving like a fucking crazy loon day. And I think I missed the memo. I was driving down Pecos and some dummy in a van cut in front of me. Then, a lady behind me wipped over into the left lane because the people in my lane weren't going fast enough for her. But come to observe, she was going further down Pecos to get onto I-76 east

Blah...

2007-02-05T08:26:00.000-07:00

Weekend could have been much better. Saturday went peachy. We took Dominic to have pictures taken. We got some really good poses of him. I'll have to go borrow the CD they gave us and upload my favourites tonight. We went to lunch. Ran to Target for a few things. And then went home. Mom told me that if I brought Ken and my laundry down and helped her sort it, she'd do laundry Sunday. So, I took

What a day...

2007-02-02T14:16:00.000-07:00

For a Friday, it's gone rather well. *knocks on wood*I've done busy work all day. Pulled invoices and matched them to checkstubs and invoiced for PMM. I'm going to leave my invoiceing for Pro-Tech till Monday, as I really need to get the rest of these stubs matched to invoices. I've had a stack of check stubs to match to invoices on my desk for the last month. >_<>Also, an update on the whole

I feel like I was kicked in the stomach...

2007-01-31T14:56:00.000-07:00

Seriously.Ken went and picked up our welcome letter from the Environs today. The rent price they listed in the letter was 1050...not the 995 we were quoted by them. O_O WTF?Turns out, Jamie is no longer with the leasing office there, and that Sherita is taking over. Not a huge deal except for the price difference.Ken called to find out. Turns out, Jamie had forgotten to change the Snowmass layout

2007-01-26T16:04:00.000-07:00

Yeah. That was just toooo funny.Wise-guy. Think you can fool me into paging your son Mike Hunt (say it outloud and you'll understand better) who just started working here. Seriously, some guy just called and asked me to page his son. I put him on hold, realised what the name comes out as when saying it out loud and asked Debbie if we had a Mike Hunt working here...nope. I told her, I didn't think

And left some questions open for answering. I answered them in Krissi's blog and now I'm posting them here.

Odd dreams...and other stuff...

2007-01-23T07:47:00.000-07:00

Ok. So I had some wierd dreams last night.While I don't remember details, I do remember parts.The first dream was very...Wife Swap-ish...at least I suppose. I was fighting with my parents about cleaning the house and getting the laundry done. But we weren't in our house. It's like we were in someone elses house doing their laundry and cleaning up their mess. And my sister was there. And it was

March can't come soon enough...

2007-01-22T10:11:00.000-07:00

I feel so bad lately for my postings, you guys. I do. It feels like they've all been drama laden lately. I wouldn't blame you for not reading them right now. >_<> I'll just leave this blog at this. And if ya want a link to the other blog, lemme know. We can all handle so much drama in our lives. So I won't bother you with it any more. I'll just have a journal where I can go and rant my heart out.

Things really are looking up...

2007-01-19T13:32:00.000-07:00

Went home last night, and mom was a 360 to the night before. She was even talking about buying me a plant like she's got. Only her plant is like fracking huge. I think it's now like 3 foot tall and 4 feet around. It started out at about a foot tall and a foot around. Anywho. I'll take a picture of it when I get home and post it later. She's also talking about cutting off some of her plants and

Yay?

2007-01-18T11:40:00.000-07:00

I hesitate to say things are looking up. Ken called the Environs today. They don't need me to be there till we are ready to sign a rental agreement. So, he went and paid the deposit and app fees. Good news is, I had him ask if they'd let us know if a cheaper unit opened up. He asked. They currently have an empty unit (1 bed, a study and a loft) that will be available soon and is renting for $995

Warning:

2007-01-17T16:03:00.000-07:00

Today's blogs contain lots of ranting, bitching, and drama. Proceed at your own risk.There's even more drama now. Which, I'm sure after I get home from work tonight I'll be updating on...again.Apparently my mom was ranting to my father about something when they got home from work. Ken wasn't sure what. Just that her voice was raised. It's one of a few things:1) My father. Apparently he was at

Bleh...

2007-01-17T13:20:00.000-07:00

Was having a great day.Got a call yesterday from the apartment/townhome community we are very interested in. They have a unit opening mid March. It rents for $1050 a month. We were set to go after I got off work today and pay our app and deposit fees. Then I called my mom. Just to let her know we were going after I got home from work. I wish now I hadn't called her. Kind of.For every good thing I

Weeeeeeeeeeee!

2007-01-16T10:47:00.000-07:00

We're getting a christmas tree tonight. A pre-lit clear, 6.5ft, really nifty tree for $60. It was originally a $200 tree. I'm so excited. We now have all our christmas decorations for next year (we might add on here and there for the rest of our lives, but for now, we at least have a terrific start).We've also started to compile a list of things we'll need for our house (or place) when we move

And we have success!

2007-01-08T15:52:00.000-07:00

My mother called me about 45 minutes ago.Adams county made it down our street today and took away the snow/ice/slush ruts that plagued our street. The only downside is that it's a one lane street (because there were too many cars I imagine, still parked in front of houses). But, I'm not going to complain. At least I don't have to 4-wheel it in a non-4 wheel car until the next storm comes through.

Are you flipping kidding me???

2007-01-05T21:50:00.000-07:00

I'm wondering if my bitching paid off. Ken got his car stuck backing into the driveway tonight. Dad and I went out and got him unstuck. As we were coming in the door and taking our shoes off, what should come down our street but a BIG ASS plow. And it was actually plowing!!I was so flipping shocked I nearly passed out.But then...about 20 minutes ago, it came down. AGAIN!WTF!?!?And it was going a

Ok, if you read this from the bottom up...

2007-01-04T17:37:00.000-07:00

You will see how the correspondence went. And I never replied to his last email (the one at the top). I did however, submit a 9wants to know tip to 9news as to why our streets aren't being plowed, and where the hell the highway department employees are if they aren't plowing our streets in order to get us out of our neighborhoods in a safer way.Mom called today and they told her "We'll put you on

Shock...a response...for what it's worth...

2007-01-02T14:28:00.000-07:00

"I will pass this information on to the Highway Supt."And that means what exactly? Our street might get done and it might not? Or is it simply a way of pacifying me into thinking you're going to do something about the shape of our snow and ice packed streets? Come on. You can do better than that. I was scheming to get all my neighbors together and go shovel our own damn street...the whole 200

I am shocked...

2007-01-02T14:06:00.000-07:00

I opened my comcast email just now, and found a very brief response from the manager of public works for Adams County..."Where do you live?"So, I emailed him back with my address. We shall see what he responds with. ^_^Also, turns out a plow/sandtruck was down our street earlier today. They did drop a bit of sand from what mom said. *shrugs*Seanaci-1, Adams County (AC)-0

Dear Adams County

2006-12-30T16:56:00.001-07:00

We are truely disappointed with the shape of the neighborhood streets after these recent snow storms. While the more travelled main neighborhood streets have been plowed, the side streets that are only travelled by residents, look and feel like crap. Our street is awful. Two of the occupants in our house happen to have rear wheel drive, and will find it difficult to get out of the neighborhood

And now we wait...

2006-12-28T22:10:00.000-07:00

So. Last week we got around 30 inches of snow with the storm that rolled in. We were just about thawed out and our street was nearing the point where you could actually see the concrete. However, things have changed now.And we sit and wait.The first reports that came out a few days ago wouldn't confirm just how much snow we'd get out of this storm. And they actually didn't confirm totals until
