26 weeks prego!

My little sausage link is growing beautifully at 26 weeks! I have such a love for him already that I can't even explain in words! I get such a joy from his movement in my belly! Its a sign that all is going well! I am pretty sure ill be giving birth to a little ninja! :)

As scared as I am to become a single mom of two kiddos, I an so excited for this new chapter in my life! I know it will be a challenge, but to be blessed with such an amazing gift is amazing!

I'm hoping to get this little guy's nursery somewhat put together soon! Technically, I've got just about 14 weeks before he arrives! Holy moly! I feel like I've been preggo forever, but it's going to fly by I'm sure!

Oh the joys of babies! :)

Vent away...

So I need to vent... I've kind of always been too nice and forgiving at times. Its probably had a lot of impact on my stress level too. I always try to believe that people can change or make amends if they've done you wrong. I try to give the benefit of the doubt...

Is it possible that I have too much faith in seeing the good in people? For a brief moment, I thought forgiving someone who has done wrong by me so many times that it would make them realize that I am a good person. I was wrong. So wrong.

I am irritated... I want nothing more than to have honest truthful people in my life and some people will just never change.

Why should I bend over backwards to help someone out when they wouldn't do the same for me? Or they would...only if it was beneficial to them. What happened to doing things simply out of the kindness of your heart? Sheesh!

Also, I have a question... what do you consider to be nosey? Asking a general question doesn't make you nosey, right? Prying...prying makes you nosey. But instead of being bitter or angry about the way I get treated, I'll just return the favor... I may not know how to be a mean person, but I do know that I don't have to put up with disrespectful people.

Gotta put on my big girl panties and stand up for myself and my family. Call me miss moving on to a better me!

Don't be ashamed of your story...

Well where should I start?

I officially live in my own house and am fairly settled in! Its such an amazing feeling! All of the hard work done by my parents has given me a home I can't be more thankful for! :) I want to repay them in some way, ideas?

Bri survived her first week of first grade! Poor thing has to get up at 5am everyday since I have had to work and had drill. Hopefully soon we will be in a better routine! I've got to remember soon to get her signed up for dance and basket ball! She opted out of hockey this year, which made me sad but it's okay.

My stress level has been decreased tremendously! Partly to my new house and work schedule, but also to my ability to move forward with my head held high no matter what life has thrown at me. It is a beautiful feeling.

But do u know what's not a beautiful feeling? I just had a birthday, and I'm 27!!! Holy moly, I'm gettinh close to 30!

But on the bright side, at 27 I've been blessed with so much!

Ps today I'm at drill, stuck all day watching weapons cuz I'm preggo! Me and my other preggo battle have been having good conversation about life and unit drama! Typical army stuff!

But I'm done rambling! Have a good day all!

Shoutout!

Just want to send a quick shout out to my amazing mom and dad for all of their hard work on my house! They've made awesome progress! My dad out in the laminent flooring in and is pretty much done with that. Mom has been working like a maniac at painting/sanding cabinets and they are almost ready to put back in the kitchen! We've got all the bedrooms, bathroom, and living room painted too!

Jenn and Tricia came and painted and helped with a few other odds. Their help was much appreciated! Thanks again ladies!

Looks like the counter tops will be in tomorrow and mom will be starting the backsplash soon too! Once i get the floors I'm the bedrooms cleaned, we will be moving stuff in! Sooooo excited!

Thanks again to those who have helped me with my house and watching Bri while we've been working! :)

Baby2 is finally showing!

Here's baby2 finally making an appearance and growing! I'm extra sore and tired today, can barely stay awake! :( I'm working I'm the ER today and my doc for the day gave me the go ahead to nap at my desk... he'll have some explaining to do if someone catches me! ;)
