The new baby is a GIRL!!!!!!! They even sent us home with the money shot to prove it, lol!Still due around September 25- but the measurements are saying that I will go into labor closer to September 30 (right before my mom's birthday)... so we'll see! She looks healthy, no physical deformities, and all 4 chambers of her heart are functioning normally. YAY!Now I can start setting up her nursery

Why can't money grow on trees? Seriously? I hate being broke. And I don't like being kicked in the cervix, either. Just in case any of you were wondering... or planning on doing it.

J told me this morning that a person that we both knew from high school passed away last week. Apparently, it was a suicide (though that isn't 100% confirmed). J knew him throughout high school as they played football together, but I hadn't talked to him since probably junior high- we played basketball in the same league from grades 5-8, I think. It's so sad to hear that he is gone- he was

I had a migraine today, the first since I have been pregnant. While pregnant, the ONLY pain reliever you can take is Tylenol. I have had a pretty solid headache for a couple days now, but I woke up this morning feeling like someone was ramming an ice pick through my left temple. I took my Tylenol and it did NOTHING. Kaitlyn wouldn't settle for a nap after lunch, and I ended up sitting in her

I don't think I can explain how much I am loving New York so far. I can imagine us living here after J gets out of the Army. Liz and Kim won't be living in YV after they graduate (and if they do, I'll tease them endlessly) and my parents plan on traveling once Kim is done with college. It would be nice to be in California again, but I don't think that is where we'll end up. It would be nice

I'm here in New York! I *love* it here so far. We have had great weather... it's green, sunny, and there's lots of different lakes and rivers. The town outside of base is really old and gorgeous. There are battlefields from the War of 1812 all over the place- the historical aspect of this area just blows my mind. We have to go down to New Jersey this week to pick up our car that the military

Quick update-J is in Michigan and will be in New York this week. They will start to find us a house next week, and then we can fly up and meet him. I miss him! K has learned how to climb, so now she is a monkey. Riley is doing well, as far as I know- my next doctor's appointment should be within the next couple of weeks. I think that's all for now... my blog is so empty and boring these days

I have arrived in California. And, I noticed that I have 17 followers now! As the gamer population might say, "w00t".... or perhaps even "pwn". Sweet. I keep pushing the "enter" key to start a new paragraph, but my cursor somehow gets lost on the way down. So, you get a post in one giant paragraph for you to try and keep your place reading in.

I am seriously going through withdrawals due to lack of internet. It's so sad. I'm sitting here at the library, here to "print some stuff out for my taxes"...... and sneaking onto my blog ;) Pathetic!My mom arrives Monday night, the movers will be here Tuesday, and then cleaning and getting ready to leave. We leave this horrible place on Saturday... a week from tomorrow!!!Speaking of tomorrow

First and foremost, a piece of my writing is featured on letters2soulmate for this week! I submitted a sweet Valentine's Day letter that I wrote to J (but haven't given him yet...) and it was selected to be featured on the webiste. Check it out and leave comments! It's a little bit cheesy (at least I think so, now that I have reread it) but it's honest.Our move is finally starting to come

Still waiting for Mount Redoubt to explode. JJ from the radio station 94.7 The End here in Alaska called Redoubt "God's Indigestion". I think that is a fair comparison.I hate the waiting game. With Hurricane Rita & Katrina in 2005, we knew that they were coming, and we could see on a day to day basis how close they were. We knew the exact date of when they were going to make landfall and come

So Mt. Redoubt (isn't that a stupid name for a volcano??) is supposed to be erupting within the next few days. This giant volcano is 100 miles from here, and EXPLODES when it erupts... I'm talking ash, rock, and glass spewing up to 10 miles into the air. The last time it erupted was almost 20 years ago, and they're expecting this eruption to be about the same in size. Which means that our news

Oh snap... e-Harmony is having a 20% discount promotion!!!!!!!! Apparently even the economy is affecting people finding their true loves.

I went to the hospital today to have my pregnancy concerned (as my sister was still skeptical that I actually was pregnant, despite positive home pregnancy tests). I went to Women's Health, who ordered me a pee test. Then I went to the lab to give the sample. They told me to come back in an hour and a half for the results, so I went and walked around the PX for a while. K and I ate lunch and

Yes... your eyes are not deceiving you. I found out this morning that I am pregnant! According to those ever-trustworthy internet due date calculators, I'm due on September 25th. I go to the doctor on Monday!I'll post more later!

THANK GOOODNESS. The US is finally starting to allow stem cell research! It has taken long enough. So much good can some from doing these kinds of tests! There are other ways to obtain stem cells- through the umbilical cord blood, for example. And, I believe, from the placenta... though I could be wrong on that one. I'm so glad that this is starting up in the US! Maybe they will be able to

So I shaved my cat today. Literally. I'm not being dirty (get your mind out of the gutter!!)... the poor thing is getting so old (over 12!) that she has a hard time grooming herself. She was starting to get mats, so I decided to help her and cut them out (sometimes you can get away with just doing that)... but I couldn't. I had to shave her. I don't have any before pictures, but here is the

Has anyone seen the game Saints Row 2? J is playing it right now, and holy moly... it is violent! Very entertaining, but crazy! It has people stabbing other people in the face, strippers dancing on poles, gangs, pimps, etc. It is funny to watch, but I'm SO glad I don't have a 10 year old son to learn from it... lol!

It finally snowed a little bit here today- it was pretty! I tried to make an Angus beef meatloaf for dinner tonight, and it turned out pretty good. I don't think I will do it again, though... the Angus beef was too expensive to not be amazing... lol!

Had a good day! It has been moderately warm for a few days now (mid to high 30's.... it even got to 43!) and it has been wonderful. We went to the mall and shopped, then came home. K was awesome (as usual!) and took a great nap. Then we went out to dinner with our friends... it was really nice to get out and socialize with people!K is a teething machine... she has 3 molars coming through!

J left this morning for training, and they decided to come back on Thursday night rather than Wednesday night. Oh well! I'll catch up on playing on the Wii... heehee!K took a huge fatty nap today. I laid her down at 2, she played in her crib until 3:30 and slept until 6! I ended up taking a nap too, and when she woke me up at 6, I couldn't tell if it was 6am or 6pm. I hate waking up confused

K will not stop crying. J's leave form was approved, so my mom and J's friend bought their plane tickets to come up to help us move. Now they are saying his leave form is no good, and he can't leave for a MONTH later than he was supposed to. I hate this lifestyle.

Gaaaaaaaah! It is 2:15am and I can't sleep. I'm tired but I can't get my brain to shut up! I can't wait until we leave this place so we can have some normal daylight hours and my body can readjust. I know that's not the only thing causing my insomnia... but it will definitely help! I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired. I just want one week of feeling like my old self again. No

I've had this blog for such a long time... and I've never written in it. I always think that my writing is cheesy and cliched, so I delete everything I write right after I post it. It's sad!So we're leaving Alaska next month (!!!) and I'm so excited. I can't wait to get out of this dark, cold place. I will miss my friends here, but other than that... I'm ready to get out of here. I'm anxious
