Baby's First Christmas

Bubbas is sick for his first Christmas. He's crabby, crying, and refuses to nap.

We had a pretty decent turnout for Christmas Eve. Even cousin James, Sarah, and JJ came by. I was so excited to see them.

Manual and Rosa helped me set up the computer room/guest bedroom just in time for our guests not to see another storage room, lol.

Bobby and I got to spend our first Christmas together in our own home as a family. This is possibly the best Christmas ever. :)

FINALLY

It took 6 months, but Bobby and Eric are finally getting the rest of our things from storage today. I'm so excited.

Today, we will be having the in-law's over for dinner. I'll be making a huge batch of chicken, cheese, and beef enchiladas for the first time since last summer.

It's a very busy day to say the least.

F*R*I*E*N*D*S

Having friends over for a weekly game night is amazing. I love it. I hate them, but I love it, lol.

I wish my dress would fit!

My wedding dress is just a little too small. I have 20 months to lose about 4 inches/ 25 lbs. Actually I have to lose it by 10 months in time for Jason(yay!)/ Tiffany's wedding in September '11. In a perfect world I would lose it by March '11 in time for Brian/Joanie's vow renewal, but I just don't see myself doing it in 4 months. I'm much too lazy, lmao.

They're going to make the back of it lace-up as opposed to zip-up anyway. It will add a little more room, and it will be exactly what I wanted. Then it will be as if I designed my own wedding dress. This dress has everything I've ever wanted- beading at the top, pick-up skirt, longer train, strapless, similar to sweetheart neckline, and all it needs is the lace-up back. :)

It will look similar to the dress on the left. So beautiful. *sniffle*

Seriously, I want to wear my dress over and over and over forever. I want to get on a horse in it and gallop across a field, change a flat tire, and just do everyday activities in this dress and make all the other girls jealous they don't have a dress as gorgeous as mine. :)

My inspiration is just growing much too fast

He's holding onto the side of the bed walking from one end to another. He understands what "no" means, pauses, looks up at me, smiles, and does whatever he's not supposed to do anyway. It's hard to believe my little baby is going to be nine months old in 4 days. :(

Now that he's getting older, I'd like to start getting back school and web design. I know Bobby supports this decision. I'd like to be an inspiration for them, as they are for me.

...and yes, he does have a tooth.

It just never happened

Sometimes it’s just more simple and hurts less to pretend it never happened.  So it never happened.  I had Bubbas, and that’s all we need right now.  I’ve been dreading addressing the situation, so let’s just pretend it never happened.  It’s easier, and I can move on to writing about other things. 

Bubbas is now:

• crawling
• pulling himself up
• growing his first tooth

The call

So today I received a call that shook my world. It was Dr. Gray. She says that I'm anemic. It doesn't phase me since I've known this since 6th grade. Take some iron. Take the prenatals. Ok, got it. Oh wait, what? There's more? Oh...

My pregnancy hormones are very low. It could mean I am not as far along as we thought. It could mean the levels will go up later. It could mean other things I'd rather not type out as I'd rather never have to read them again. I go for another blood test tomorrow. The results should be in by Monday. Lord, I wish it would be Monday already.

Bubbas Six Month Check Up

Bubbas weighs 22 1/3 lbs. He is 27 1/2 inches long (he's so tall for his age!). And he has a 17 1/2 inch head. The doctor said he is still above the curve of where he should be in weight, but he was born big. He is very tall for his age. He is very strong and very healthy.

Bubbas is Six Months Old

Bubbas spent the morning playing with Dada and Mummas. Now he has been napping since Dada left for work around 11 AM or so. It's 1:34 now. He's sleeping his half birthday away! Here is what he has learned to do now:

• Roll over
• Almost roll back over
• Sit up by himself for at least 5 minutes
• Put his feet in his mouth
• Say "Dada"
• Scoot backwards
• ALMOST crawl

I'm going with him to buy some clothes for him and possibly get his pictures taken. Then, we will be spending time with Aunt Amelia. Aunt Lindsey is at Grandma's with Brooke, so we might go see them, too. :)

How We Found Out

I was nitpicking every thing Bobby was doing, saying, and when he breathed the wrong way. Of course, I figured it was just PMS. I'm still not late, by the way. I am due tomorrow, lol. Anyhoo, Bobby said, "Why are you being so crabby and emotional? One minute you're laughing, and the next you're crying. I bet you're pregnant." Well, to prove him wrong (or right), I drove to Rite Aid and bought a pregnancy test and a dry erase board that we needed. The cashier asked me, "Oh, are you trying?" "Well, not really, but kind of," were my exact words back.

I got home, ran to the bathroom, and peed on a stick. Two lines. "BABE!" We hugged, and we both instinctively called mom. His call went through. She, of course, didn't believe him till he swore on Grandma Ferguson. The entire time, Bubbas just looked at us like we were crazy. We were.

A New Addition

Wednesday, we found out we are pregnant again. I've been moody... grrr....

Five Feet High And Rising

My first post in my new blog. Hopefully, this won't end up an abandoned disaster like my LJ. (Five months later, all you see is this post.)
