23 weeks


We had another ultrasound yesterday and got to see our little Natalie! She was active and we got to see her yawning!! We won't know anything about her growth or the growth of my fibroid until March 3rd.

Almost 6 months along now...

Run away shopping carts


Today I went to Petsmart to get some dog food and after hauling that load into the car (which I shouldn't have done, but I didn't want to ask for help at the counter), I was lazy and just left my cart next to the car.
I got in the car and noticed the cart was starting to roll far far away. I looked back and there was a car waiting for my spot....
I strapped on my seatbelt and gunned it. While I was hauling ass away from the run away cart that I let happen, I yelled I DON'T CARE!
I don't know why I feel compelled to share this, but I think part of me felt so good for living on the wild side a bit.
I'm lame, but this run away shopping cart gave me much freedom today.

20 weeks


This last week has proven to be quite a challenge. In order to keep my job, we had to take paycuts....so that means things will be tight for the next few months. I am so so so thankful to still have my job though.
Also, the doctor discovered a large fibroid in my uterus that is growing rapidly and competing with space in my womb with the baby. There are a lot of other details to go along with this news, but basically, my delivery is going to be very tricky and will most likely include a C-section and possible premature baby. I have been in a lot of pain for the last 2 weeks with no idea WHY, so I was thankful that they found out what is going on. God is faithful, and we are trusting that he shrinks this dumb fibroid so it doesn't interfere with Natalie's growth and that she can be delivered full term as a healthy, strong girl!
