house showing

We are renting and they are foreclosing... Now they are trying to sell it. We have had several people come to look at it.. yay for the owners... sucks for us. I have to make sure all Von's toys are picked up, kitchen picked up and beds made before I leave in the morning. sucks! I need to start collecting boxes for us to pack but I just don't have the care to do it. We wet to the OB and got to hear the heart beat!! I love that sound.. makes you feel all better. I volunteered Chris to help a friend cut down his parents dead 35 year old tree....... It was very nice outside and they finished the job pretty fast. I of course supervised and tanned my legs.. we bought passes to the water park and hopefully we get to use them soon. I came home yesterday to Chris and Von on the kitchen floor with a new aqua-doodle that Von got yesterday.... Very cute site..

Sick of poop!!

We found out the house we are renting is being foreclosed on!! Yay us! They are going to try to short sell it. Meanwhile we have to keep the house picked up (with a 2 year old)... I got a call that someone wanted to see the house on Thursday. We picked up the house Wednesday night, Thursday I wake up to dog poop in the bedroom!! I want to kill them..... I get everything together and get Von to him Mom Moms. I picked up Von from him Mom Moms and found out that he was sick all day, very sick.. Took him home and no sickness!! Thank god... I cant handle puke right now! Got home and the garage smells like poop.... yes the dogs pooped in the kennel!!!!!!!!!!!!Chris had a softball game, which he was pulled out of because he was feeling so crappy and not playing well. Von woke up several times that night throwing up. He doesn't talk, so no warning sign.. A little cry and then puke. I rush him to the bathroom, where Chris has to take over while I run to the other bathroom. Von had a 102 temp and we put him in our bed. He got sick a couple more time and then was wide awake at about 3:30!!! Needless to say I was very tired on Friday. Chris ended up having to call in sick because of Von and him not feeling well either. The last time Von got up I stepped in dog poop..... I could only cry then. I don't know what their problem is... They are house broken and are not neglected. they are spoiled!! Von was better on Friday and got sick a few more times on Saturday. Chris went back to work and I think I got a little touch of it on Sunday..

Mothers day was very nice. We went to the Sunrise Cafe for breakfast, a busy busy place. Then we came home and took naps. Went to the mall for some much needed maternity clothes. Had dinner at the in laws.

This morning Chris goes to let the dogs out and what do you know........... poop!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are now sleeping outside......

M.I.A Froggy!!!

Today Chris and Von meet me for lunch. I walked them back to the car and Chris had this look on his face. I was thinking he lost his keys!! He says to me "where is the diaper bag?" I say "sh**, we left it the cafeteria!!" I told him I would go back and look for it and just bring it home... Its not a fancy diaper bag, but it has the essentials in it. I think I only paid $5.00 for it.. Well I walk fast (I don't run) back to the cafeteria, no bag.. I look around and still no bag. I asked the lady taking out the trash where if anyone turned it in. She says no..... damn it Gina!!! I go up to security to see if it had been turned in, no.. I was going to go back to work and check security later.. I decided to go back to the cafeteria 1 last time. I'm waiting for the elevator door to open and there is a lady with our diaper bag going to security!! I was so happy!! nothing to replace, Yay!!


I packed my things up to leave work and unzipped said diaper bag... and what is there staring at me you ask!! Well its Von's beloved froggy!!!!! If you haven't heard of Froggy.... Von carries him around everywhere.. normally in him mouth!! I have bought several frog type blanket animals and he throws them aside... Nothing will do besides the frog!! Now that I know I was this close to doom...... THANK GOD I FOUND THAT $5.00 DIAPER BAG!!!!!!!!!!!

11 weeks and counting

I had a OB appointment today (me Chris and Von) and all is well!! We heard the heart beat and it sounds like a strong ticker. He said our due date is Nov 5th with a c-section date Nov 1st? I am shooting for a halloween baby!!!!! Ok ok... just a healthy baby. We have the amnio test in May and I will have tones of stress relieved then!! We will also find out what we are having then. I have also lost a total of 8 pounds... yay for me.. Now I just have to get through the sickness I have been getting!!

I guess its time

I am about to give up on the blog.. I don't think anyone reads it and really I just don't have anything to say.


But I will give it another chance.

Easter..

We went to Carol and Jerrys for some very yummy breakfast, that I re-created at a later time. We had dinner and a egg hunt at our house. Von was so cute looking for eggs.. He did get side tracked by a couple if airplanes that flew over heard. Once he found out there was candy in his eggs... he was really excited!!!


Von's' 2nd Birthday..

My mom fly in, Erik and fam drove in. We had a FULL house!!! Von was pretty excited to see his cousins and was babbling all the time! He enjoyed ripping the wrapping paper and finding the toys. The clothes he could have cared less about. He is getting so big.. I love watching him grow and learn... and I get so sad thinking he is growing up. I guess I will always remember the little man I held in my arms when he was just born, amazed by his lips, fingers, ears. Time really does fly by! Soon we will have another one that I can stare at for hours on end. I tell Von he is going to be a big brother, but he could care less!!

My birthday..

I turned the big 37!!! Im almost 40!!!! augh...... I told Chris for my bday I wanted to clean out the garage. I know weird! But we ended up with 2 car loads full of crap.. I still need to tackle the kitchen. I am sick of having so much stuff!! Do I really need 17 spatulas and 6 cookie sheets! NO I don't think so.. So get rid of it.. aaahhhh Happy Birthday to me!

And baby makes 4...

Yes that is right... a baby.. We are 7 weeks. still early, but we are very excited!! Before we found out we were pregnant, we found out that I am type 2 diabetic.. so I have made quite a few changes in my life.. all for the better Im sure. All will be well.... I have an amazing doctor and a pretty good husband that supports me and takes good care of me.


We went to WA for a long weekend, that turned out to be a very long weekend... My cousin and her family meet us in WA also. We all went to the Seattle Aquarium, which was totally cool!! The kids got to touch star fish and sea urchins. We got to see how they feed a octopus.. She was really cool! They said that they can climb right out of their habitat.. Sometimes they come in and it will be on the carpet. After a long day we went home and just hung out. We went to the outlet mall the next day and I was THIS close to getting a new Coach purse.... on clearance, plus an extra 50% off and then 20% off at the register!!!! BUT............ then came along my brother that put a guilt trip on me for spending that much money on a purse.. so no new Coach for me.. Thanks Erik!! :-) After the outlet mall, Jackson was starving so to McDonalds we went and so did the horrible food poisoning it gave me.. I don't think I have ever been that violently sick before in my life!!!!!!!! There was no way I could travel 9 hours home the next day.. So we had to stay one more night
and then drove home.

We brought home bunk beds from WA, took down Vons crib and he now sleeps in a "big boy" bed.. It is sad, cute and fun all at the same time. I took to it like a champ. So far no trying to climb out or play around. We tell him its time to go to bed and that he needs to lay down and he does it.

On top of everything thing else, Chris's employer is having them work OT like crazy!! So he works 16 hour days.. I say no thank you!!

Full of surprises

Chris surprised me yesterday by setting up our fountain in the back yard. He said Von loved to play in it. I am going to put pots around it to hid the bottom, It will be nice to have in the summer. Chris also surprised me for lunch today. We had yummy mexican food..... Chris sent me a picture of Von after they dropped me off... He was pretty tuckered out!
