I'm having a baby!!!

It's been a while since I last posted a message. I'm happy to say that I'm currently 14 weeks pregnant. I've told my family, some friends and a few co-workers, but not too many people. What am I waiting for? I'm not really sure. My next appt is scheduled for May 21st and my ultrasound is for June 11th. I guess I'm waiting to for the ultrasound. Most of my family is hoping for girl. I can't really say that I hoping for a girl, but it would nice to have a boy and a girl. I really just want a healthy baby with all it's toes and fingers and overall healthy. Noah insists on calling the baby his sister. I've told him it's up to God to send us a boy or a girl. He says he will love his brother or sister. I think right now he is going through a baby stage. He just wants to be with mama. I'll report back in a bit. I'm hungry and I'm going to heat up my spaghetti.

Life

I just found out my cousin has cancer. He is 29 years old and the doctors gave him 2-3 years to live. I couldn't believe it. He is so young and has so much to life for. I haven't seen him or talked to him. What do you say? I don't know.

I have an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow. If all is well then it's the IUI. I told my husband yesterday that I keep having dreams about the medicine I'm taking, weird dreams. I have told myself that the IUI's are not going to work. My husband asked why and I told him I don't want to get my hopes up. He said to let go of those emotions, but it's hard.

On a happier note, Valentines day is a week away. I asked Noah what he was going to get me and he said flowers. We went to Lucky's a few days later and he showed me the flowers he was going to get me. It's the first Valentines day he is going to buy me something. We've decided to go to Cheesecake Factory then Pier 39. Hopefully it's not to cold.

Issues

I recently found out that I'm having some ovulation issues. My husband and I have been trying to have another baby for over a year now and nothing. I'm seeing a fertility specialist and we are doing clomid. I hope it works. I would really love to have another baby. We have a 3 year old and would like him to have a brother and a sister. I am trying to prepare myself if this doesn't work. I would be so heart broken, but at the same time I have my son and husband.

I've recently been thinking how our lives are so much better because of our son, Noah. He makes life so much fun and interesting. He says such funny things and we just crack up. Right now he is so into Christmas and can't wait for Santa to come. I'm a lucky person.

Vice Presidential Debate

Wow! Joe Biden did a great job defending his points and Barack Obama's. Palin was so prepped and coached, it didn't seem natural to me. She said "Also" 48 times and winked her at eye at the viewers. What about her folksy talk? I find it very offensive. I have no idea who that was geared to. If she wants to speak directly to Americans do it as anyone else would...in plain English. I don't want our nation's leaders talking to other world leaders like that. I got especially choked up when Biden referred to his wife and daughter that died and his sons that were injured. Palin is so cold hearted she didn't even acknowledge it. All in all Joe Biden is the winner. This debate may not have changed some voters decision, but at least we know that when Barack is elected President, he's got a qualified Vice President that will give him sound advice!

Finally Friday

As I sit here at work, I'm thinking what is in store for this weekend. There isn't anything to see at the movies. Noah doesn't want to see the movie "Igor". I do have to clean the back yard. There are a lot of spider webs to take down. Humm.... I kind of have an itch to go out, but now we have an entertainment budget that we must stick too. We can't go over that amount.

Lately, my husband has really been watching the news about the election. I'm rather suprised because I have always been the news buff. I'm glad he has taken in interest, it certainly makes great conversations.

I talked to my friend, Martha about our Halloween costume. We might be the DreamGirls. She wants to be Jennifer Hudson, our other friend wants to be Beyonce, so I get to be the girl no one remembers. Isn't that something? I thought about it and I'm the nobody. Oh well, we still have time to change our mind.

Kids are funny. Noah told me the other day I was his hero. I don't think he knows what that means, but I was so happy when he said it. Of course, the next day he said I was a platypus. I'll leave you with a picture of my beautiful son, Noah.

Tony's Party

This was a nice weekend. We celebrated my brother's b-day at my brother-in-law's house. Everyone had a great time. We had food and drinks. All of my brothers & sisters took a shot together. I took a very small one. All in all we had a great time. Of course, there were some who were paying for it later. I won't say any names, but they know who they are.

Of course, there was some drama. My sister & bro-in-law are not together anymore but they are still friends. They both brought someone to the party. Unfortunately, my bro-in-law's friend lost her shoe that night. She was dancing with another one of our friends and he got mad at her and supposedly threw her shoe over the back fence. Not cool at all, especially when the shoes cost $60.00.
