Saide is apparently sucking any and all party planning skills I have. I have no desire to do stuff that any other time I would be ALL over. I dont know whats worng with me. I just keep thinking of the day of the party and I will be HUGE and literally ready to pop. Im so tired already and my feet are so swollen I just cant imagine. 

Then I start freaking out  if it will be cold and rainy...ugh. 

Lily is inisisting on a mermai jumphouse this year so that will be an activity I dont hav to plan. I think with that and the pinata I will do one other game/activity and thats its. 

I have gone to make an order on Oriental Trading four different times and havent done it because I am second guessing myself.  There is basically 7 weeks until her party and I feel screwed.  

Cleaning up my friends list

If you got booted and want to be added again just post here

Honestly though, if you got booted then its because you never post anyway.

So I just weighed myself..

Week One Low carb diet

Starting weight(last Wed.): 291.5
Weight today (Wed. June 28th): 283.5!!!!!

Net Loss: 8 lbs.!!!!

Im sure the weight loss will slow done in the coming weeks and it was just the initial shock to my system but I cant be happier!!!
I didnt really accomplish my exercise goals and thats something Im really going to have to work on this week but my clothes are feeling looser and I feel great!

Hope all of you laides had a great week..some of you have been working out like crazy!!! : )

No not the Longhorns...LOL

I was reading in the BFing thread and they mentioned that if it is uncomfy when you pump and you dont get a whole lot even though theres milk when you hand express that maybe the horns are too small?

So where do you girls think I can ind some bigger horns for my pump? I have a Medela Double Select.

Did some Christmas shopping today for about ummm..an hour and a half. LOL I LOVE going to the mall durning the week in the middle of the day because no one is there. Even Santa was sitting there lonely and slumped over in his thrown. LOL

I find that I dont get to take the 4 hour naps durning the day like I used to when I was pregnant with Lily. I didnt think I was as tired as I was the first time around but come 4pm I am beat and yawning and COMPLETELY ready for bed. This proves to be very annoying when Christmas is around the corner and I have major shopping to do.

Lily woke up in a major fowl mood this morning which is sooo not her. She has always been a great sleeper and usually sleeps from 8pm-8am. Well last night for some reason she could not get to sleep although she tried so hard to. Poor baby. She finally went to sleep after I went into the check on her a midnight. She didnt even want out of her crib she would just lay there and be quiet for 30 min and then I would hear her playing with her aquarium or toys. She fussed a little but no crying. Maybe her molars are coming in? It would be a miracle if she would let me look back there so I guess I will just wait it out. I thought she was woke up in abad mood because she is a girl who needs her sleep. So she is napping right now and hopefully will continue for another couple of hours.

Today is my dads birthday.52 years old. Kinda scary because on Dec. 8 he had a heart attack last year(when Lily was in the NICU) remember? It was to say the least a crappy time in my families world. We have a lot to be thankful for this year..BOTH my dad and Lily being healthy and alive and a new little one on the way.
We are going to Papadeaux to eat tonight and I dont think I will eat much because I fell so HORRIBLE when I eat a nice exspencive meal and puke it 30 min later. Sounds silly to me. Maybe I will sneak in Whataburger...

Must go hunt for something to wear.

Amie- Did you find any good sweaters/shirts at Old Navy? I need some cute Maternity stuff!!

I am so damn emotional and I will say it myself...downright BITCHY with this pregnancy. I think(and everyone else agress) that I was only like this in the end with Lily because I am SO NOT a bed rest kinda person. In my defence Im not like this ALL the time but I do have my moments throughout the day. I do feel bad, I really really do.

Do you wanna know why though? Because I am SO FREAKIN TIRED of puking. Seriously! I puke anywhere from 2-6 times a day for the last 16 weeks and its getting old. There is no end in sight and forgive that that it put its me in a bad mood when I eat a nice lunch and 6 min. later I am hacking it into the toilet. THEN I puke and 8 out of 10 times I get a headache from it. Sucktity suck!

So if I have ever been mean or short with any of you girls I am apologizing...this also includes ny and all times in the next 4-5 months if I say anything.

Maybe I should wear a sign around town..

I am 4 months pregnant
I puke all.day.
I also have a one year old
Please forgive me if I am slightly bitchy

LOL ; )

These are pictures of her within the last couple of weeks and some on her at the park with the boys yesterday.

Last night I got a phone call and my Aunt and Uncle who live across the lake from Oasis said that IT WAS ON FIRE!!! I just couldnt believe it! I was suppoused to have my wedding reception there until I changed my mind 9 weeks out. ALL 40 of their decks have burned down. No one was injured but the fire department is still out there this morning. They arent sure of the cause but they think it might have been a lightening strike!! I feel so bad for all the kids that use that as a summer job and the owner(who I know is rich in his own right) is still going to loose MUCHO money from them being closed down to re-build the decks/ Sooo sad!: (


Amie, I will get together the pics of my maternity clothes and let you get first dibs on them before EBay.

Would someone please explain to me how to get a pic down to the right size to upload onto LJ for my avatar? I cant for the life of me figure it out.

Lily and I sat down and read the whole rosary for you tonight (a couple of times actually). It was almost like she knew what we were praying for because when I finished one rosary and made my penition (prayer for you) she all of a sudden laughed and cooed, I mean really LAUGHED hard...This was the very FIRST time she ever laughed like that. We then lit a candle for you and Andy and I laid her down to go to sleep.

I lit the same candle I used to lite when she was in the NICU. It got us through some rough times and I know it will get you through them also. I will leave it lit until I see your post after you get back tomorrow. I know this might seem silly but everytime I lit this paticular candle we would get good news about Lily so I am hoping it does the same for you.

I truly hope that tomorrow you get a great beta result and they fix your progest. problem. I hope that this story makes you more at peace.....everything is going to be alright...my little girl said so. : )


((((((((HUGS from Lily and I))))))))))

Thought I would let everyone know that I posted a ton of ppics of Lily in my WC journal if yall want to see her lately.

Sandy- I think it is my browser because when I signed onto AOL it let me post the pics...do you know how I can change things with my DSL?

OK, so we just got Yahoo DSL ( I know a little behind the times) and I cant right click anymore and get properties to post pictures on the WC or anywhere for that matter. I dont know what to do!!!?!? Does anyone have Yahoo DSL and can help me to post pictures. Even when I right click on a random pic on the internet it doesnt show up a properties choice. All it has is: Cut, Copy, Paste ETC. ETC.


I tried calling Yahoo but the guy couldnt understand my question and I could barely understand him for that matter.....so I just hung up. I am ready to turn DSL off and go back to AOL if I cant figure it out.

Help!

A certain little girl is in it as we speak and I have both hands to type. This thing is worth every single penny! Its like magic the second I drop her down in it she just goes into a daze and just looks around and slowly drifts off to sleep. I am going to be sad when summer comes and I am afraid it will be to hot for me to to her around in it. I am *thinking* about the cotton adjustable pouch but they say there not much stretch and not as comfy. I do love my fleece one though and eveyr where we go in it I get tons of compliments and people ask where I got it from. I never thought I would wear my children but this sling isnt so "fabricy" KWIM?

Anyhow, The ILS came over last night and it was interesting to say the least. This was there 4th time seeing her since she was born and I am cant stand the people any longer. I wasnt very warm to them and I am sure it was noticable. Not to mention that they still have never held her and when asked to wash her hands last night to do so, she told DH that she didnt think she needed too and DH told her that she wasnt holding the baby until she did. Well she never did....ah well...the are such freaks! You should have seen the look on her face when she asked how my parents were with Lily and I told her that they were VERY comfotable with her because THEY visited her everyday in NICU. She jumped to tell me that they had been sick...and I preceeded to say how weird that they were sick for 31/2 STRAIGHT MONTHS!!

UGH! What a bitch!


We havent done much today since it has been rainy here pretty much non stop. We are going to the mall tonight with my mom because DH and my dad are working late.

OK off to scope out some websites for fabrics. Be back later.
