Laying flat

Oh....its been a rough couple days!!!!! On Friday afternoon I had some minor bleeding...scared me cause it was so unexpected. I called the doctor and he said to come in for an ultrasound to check it out. Thankfully everything looks good...no sign of why this occurred. He told me to be on bedrest for two days and as long as I have no more bleeding I can resume normal activity. Well, I give it to any mommy who has to be on bedrest, you really have to depend on others to take care of little one, meals, the house etc. Well, its been interesting over here. I am exhausted not being able to do my usual stuff. My house is slightly chaotic, Grey and daddy are in a bit of a struggle together... three year old not listening... the usual. But it is freaking my world. I feel helpless. There were moments of "clear skies" yesterday and then another "storm" would move in. Today is day two and I don't believe I have been laying around as much as I am supposed to. Its just not possible. We NEED to have smooth sailing from this point on in this pregnancy cause I just don't know what I will do if it isn't.

First three days of school

So Grey started school last week and it has been quite the transition. He has always been such an adaptable child, partly cause I have worked since he was 8 weeks old and he has been shuffled around from one amazing friends house to another. But the shool atmosphere has been an adjustment. The first day he was super excited to go... grabbed his backpack, his two blankies, hopped in daddy's car and off we went. When we got there he was very excited to take a picture and get inside. Then the hard part came...the goodbye. There were no tears on his end, and mommy and daddy were able to hold them in til we got outside.
His first day went o.k. there were tears through out the day, but he said he had fun. Day two he was reluctant to go back. But I got him loaded in the car and off we went. He again, wanted to take a picture. Then he didn't want me to leave this time... when I picked him up he was very excited to see me. Probably more excited then I would like, cause he wanted to leave. But he told me that he had fun, but that he cried before naptime cause he "like mommy and daddy." That made me sad.

Day three is my later day to get to work, so I didn't take him til about 9 a.m. When we got there they were just finishing up snack and starting to have circle time on the mat, he didn't want to join. He didn't want to let go of my leg, he made mommy cry infront of the teacher...it was a rough morning. I didn't want to leave him and go to work, I wanted to take him home and play all day. He cried hysterically, I walked away. Big sigh......

I went to work, which I am throughly disliking at the moment and went on with my long day. Geoff picked him up from school and said that the teacher said Grey had a good day. He loved the lunch, which was my concern the last couple days... Grey has said he doesn't like the food, so I was worried he wasn't taking in enough throughout the day. He is like my and when his blood sugar drops its bad news. But he told me he had a bean and cheese taco and loved it. yay!!!!!

So I am anxiously awaiting this coming week and am really hoping it all goes well. Too much stress for this prego mama.... which probably explains the above post.

A celebration of sorts

Today I officially signed Grey up for "school." On Tuesday he will be starting at the Kindercare out by our house. We are all very excited about this. It unfortunately came about because his childcare that he attends now needed to close. He will sadly miss going to ABSeas, but I think this new venture for him will be great for his development. He will now be in a more "classroom" setting, with structure, direction and rules. He has all of a sudden shown at his age that he needs this kind of thing, and I think he will benefit from it greatly. It's funny though, cause I am having that feeling of "oh my baby is going to school." For the next three months he will be in the 2 year old room being POTTY TRAINED!!!! YAY!!!! But once he turns three he will be moved to the preschool room. Crazy. I can't wait to see how he changes in the next coming months, I just anticipate his language increasing, him wearing big boy underwear and just seeing him so excited to go to school. So after we dropped off the paperwork and the registration fee, Grey and I decided to grab him his special milk and head to the park at the Regional Park by our house. We played together for over an hour or so and then decided it was time for lunch. We grabbed McDonalds and headed to another park to enjoy the amazing weather and the mommy son time together. We ate, he played, I let my belly soak up the sun... it was a lot of fun. Especially cause he had the park to himself...

There was a jog-a-thon taking place at the school next door so they had a dj

Hows that look???

Such a big boy all ready for "his School"

12 week baby bump

I made it through the first trimester....barely!!! I am feeling much better. Lots more energy, yet by about 8:30pm I am still ready for bed. I can finally stand the sight of food again. I am starting to want my coffee, but am still trying to be good. My belly is growing, can't really hide it when in a tight top. I love watching it grow, its so fun. We have an ultrasound Monday for a look at the babies structure... some are able to find out the sex at this point, but it can be iffy. We will see...

a little fun at Disneyland

.... and I mean only a little. Yesterday Grey and I took another adventure to Disneyland. I've been feeling better (yay!) and the sun was out so I thought... why not? Of course when we got there the mickey and friends parking structure was closed so we had to park at the downtown disney far lot....this totally sucked cause I had already told Grey we didn't have to bring the stroller. The stroller is stupid for us at Dland cause Grey wants to walk anyway which then results with me pushing an empty stroller and trying to handle a toddler. So anyway the walk from the parking lot to the front of dland probably took about 35 minutes.... my patience was already being tested. He didn't care to listen to mommy for the most part which resulted in many agruments and break downs. Too hard to explain it is words... lets just say Mommy needed a NAP!!! Now most of you may think... geez he looks pretty happy in the pictures and I would reply... yes he does cause he screamed at me to take the pictures... this was one thing he definately wanted... food, drinks, taking his sweatshirt off, diaper change, go on rides... none of those things he wanted... grrrrr!!!! So the almost three year old and the 3 month prego mommy made it through the 4 hour adventure, back to the car and then off to Gamma's house for a little recovery.

tired

Hi blogging world...its been awhile. My only excuse...I'm tired. Not "didn't get enough sleep" or "went to bed late" tired...I mean who slipped me the bottle of benadryl tired. It is almost impossible to get up off the cough once I sit (or lay) down on it. It is almost impossible to stay up past 8:30pm...my poor husband, I'm such a bore lately. So with that being said the last thing I have wanted to do it fire up the computer and do an enthusiastic blog post...instead right now I'm laying on the couch updating from my phone...pathetic, yes, but I wanted to say hello.
I'm 10 weeks and 5 days prego and not quite over the morning sickness that lasts all day. I thought I was starting to feel better cause this weekend wasn't horrible, but this morning proved me wrong!!! I have a doctors apt tomorrow morning for just a typical visit...we can't wait til we can find out what this little one is. Any guesses???
We probably won't find out til I'm sixteen weeks so the countdown is on. Once this crazy tired stage is over I promise to get back to my fun post...
Zzzzzzzzz
