My eyes are bigger than my stomach

I am trying to keep eating and eat when my body wants to and what it wants to... I'm still reaching for a lot of veggies, I keep picking oranges and grapefruit off the tree to eat, yum. It sucks though, cause I snack so lunch, meals get messed up. And I'm still not that interested in chicken, or stuff too fatty.
So i make food for me, and then I'm trying to find food for Eric. It's just not lining up too well. And, if I want something one hour, by the time I get it, often I don't want it then.
I'm glad I don't have a lot of morning sickness... i had a long couple of days and nights, and felt ucky today. Went to D-land Friday night, and went to Eric's co-worker and wife's birthday party Saturday night. Eric got toasted playing beer pong. I was really tired at 9:30, but Eric was having a lot of fun, so I stuck it out till 10:30. I had a nice enough time, but it sucked cause there was a lot of smokers, so I didn't have a lot of conversations cause I had to stay away from everyone.
So Daisy just finished her third round of advanced training... she didn't do good at the practice test, but I may finally get a date for the test at the beginning of June. I've waited a year for it.

Green Day for babies

Tempting, yet weird. NIN for junior, anyone? haha

Little twinge of guilt today

Well, besides enjoying the tiny latte, lol... mmm.... I needed caffeine this morning bad.
I looked at the daily work email that is still sent to my work gmail... yeah, I didnt see a new reporter listed yet. I feel bad, but, oh well. I did what I needed to do. They need to be able to replace better than that, and if it's a financial reason, then my boss needs to step up and get a replacement... It's a lot of suffering that is undue.
Guilt over.

Finally found out the results

of last weeks ultrasound. I had to call them. I mean, I knew no news was good news, but if you're going to have to give me an abdominal and vaginal ultrasound, they'd at least call me to tell me everything WAS ok, especially when you got the results the next day. *sigh*

I have a due date now- Oct. 16

I totally have some kind of meat aversion right now. Eric's been teasing meabout some stuff a lo- i understand some thigs are weird, but I can't help it.
We went to a local steakhouse, my favorite, with Brent. Brent bought us dinner. I had top serloin.. and when it came, I didn't want it, at all. It was weird.
So back to my endless supply of fruits and veggies and Mexican, lol.

Pelvic rest sucks

I got to go see Patrick yesterday. We had arranged the date forever ago, my furlough dates were usually Wednesdays.
Mom and I ate at Chesecake Factory with Patrick and Nicole. Yum, avocado eggrolls. I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat, so I got spaghetti arrabiata (only thing that sounded good) whatever came back wasn't arrabiata... it was tastless, just chunks of tomatoes and stuff. So I told her, I think they gave me the wrong thing, there's no spice, and she just offered me red chili pepper flakes. Whatever. So I didn't have much lunch.
I have been craving shopping at Old Navy. Mom tends to take us out shopping when with Pat- he got a sweater and a nice chirt from Express men- he has a second job interview, and they dress casual enough he was recommended to wear an open button down shirt with his suit. The green stripes rocked, the sales guy was good.
I took over old navy, and got a skirt and some looser shirts, and a dress. I am also now on a mad hunt for a rainbow-striped sundress, that no one had in stock. Bleah. But now I feel more prepared for this spring and summer, since my jeans keep falling down, and right ow I have a baby belly cause I'm bloated.

I'm excited, David's band and Rob Michaels are playing at Angels Friday night, Eric and I will be going out to see them play. Haven't been to Angels since I got my ass smacked, so I'll be on the defensive... bleah. And I can't go to too many gigs after a while, cause the loud noise could hurt the baby's developing ears, so I really wanted to catch this one.

I am crazy crushing on going to Disneyland or the beach... actually, both. Can't ride much at Disneyland, but I've ridden them all a million times, so it wont be a problem.

Starting off right

Picture of the baby at about 9 weeks.
It's so silly. Dropping the job was so much stress... now I don't want to freelance! Of course, I need to keep up contacts as long as I can. I think part of it is my mind's taken a mental vacation. I've finally gotten to enjoy being pregnant, instead of putting it on the back burner trying to get work done.
I covered a group trying to get a dog park built last night- tonight, I get to hear Carol Jessup speak about her book. Sunday, story about an event where i got married, where little girls get to be princesses for a day.
So at least the stories will be about stuff I am slightly interested in.
Daisy hasn't gotten over the fact I'm home. She always has to be right next to me.
So i had to have an untrasound done yesterday- I had some spotting when I was working, most likely due to hacking up a lung, morning sickness, and stres all bombarding me at the same time. I've felt great in the last couple of weeks- the stress lifted when I decided to leave the job.
So anyway, first I had to chug down 32 ounces of water before going. Eric thought the fact that I would have to go down having to pee was hilarious. It actually made me frustrated. I have a tiny bladder and it was painful.
So first, I had the ultrasound done like that. Then I had to do another one, inside. Man, that gel is cold! But I got a neat picture out of it.
Saturday, Dad got to tell all of his friends. I mean, the secret has been out of the bag, but I had always imagined waiting three months to tell anyone. But it was worth it to get the support I needed.
We went to his friends house for a corned beef and cabbage dinner. You can ask anyone, I start drooling at the mouth for this feast for, like, 2 weeks before it happens. I am one of those weirdos that like potatoes, carrots, cabbage, and corned beef.
I actually haven't ben craving candy that much lately- it's so depressing. I have a bag of Cadbury mini eggs, and a couple boxes of cream eggs, and 'potatoes' from See's Candies.
*sigh* my favorite candy time of year, and I dont want chocolate. very depressing.

At least I'm eating healthy. I ate a whole carton of strawberries by myself yesterday, and are planning to get more, lol. Now that I have the time, I made sure to stock up with some fruits and veggies I can snack on. I've been taking bananas and apples to work, but now I have carrot stucks and dip, and a fairytale squask I'm going to bake- yum. I haven't bene dringking enough water working, so I'm really trying to drink more now.
