Bow-nanza!!

I have been filling my time this last week by making bows. I started late Saturday night and have been going crazy since. My sister has got in on the action with me so I have a hobby buddy now. I have had to work really hard on Josh to like bows on baby girls, specifically our upcoming baby girl, and he is actually excited for it now that he can see my lovely creations.




You can see the lighting is terrible and I had a hard time getting my prego belly out of the pictures but all in all I think my bows are pretty cute!!

Shot up and Broken down......

This week has felt like a doozy! I haven't done much beyond sit on emotions and ride the coaster, and there is nothing I can do do stop it! I had two of my first beta methasone shots this week, one on Tuesday and one Wednesday. They weren't the worst shots ever they didn't even have to do them thru my stomach so at least I got off easy there. I have another shot scheduled in a few weeks for the final dose. Other than that baby has been doing really well. Until tonight.....

I have been waiting for my paranoia to kick in and send me to my doctors or ER at any given time, well tonight was it. Truth be told I was having chest constriction and problems breathing so I didn't go in just for reassurance. After dealing with the breathing problems I got some sharp pains in my stomach and just started bawling. I was terrified and that is putting it lightly. My mom called Labor and Delivery and we went in to get me checked out just in case. They aren't sure what the pains are from but after checking on the baby at least I was mentally in a better place. I got to come back home with strict orders to rest and be lazy. (What a tall order right?? lol)

I have a feeling this won't be my first emergency run to the doctors but I am just grateful everything really was ok and that I have that liberty to go in and they won't look at me and say I am crazy but do everything to make sure all is ok.

It's over!!

I am soooo happy to be home right now. I just finished the planning of the 2010 Kick off Event for Relay for Life, and I am absolutely exhausted. To my greatest relief everything turned out wonderfully and without any snags that weren't to hard to fix. Now I can breathe again and look forward to my shots next week (eek). Thanks again to all those who came out to support Relay and to my in-laws who came down to Victor to help me out sooooooooooooooooo much!!

Texas Roadhouse Dancers who performed at the event! Great Job!

The reliable unhireable.........

Yes, that would be me. I am not a hireable person.........


Note to self that job hunting while 6 months pregnant is going to severely deter prospective employers from hiring you. I know the economy is bad and even in a good economy a pregnant person such as myself would have a hard time getting a job. So if I haven't found a job by the end of the month I will just give up and wait until after the baby is born. Until than my mom thinks I should make things and sell them. What should I make and sell? I have nooooooooo idea. Any ideas???????
