Weekend Duex

So after the Communion festivities, catching up and avoiding eye contact, me and my dad headed to the " Big Red Wagon Sale"... Now there was nothing "Big" about it, except the empty space. Next stop was Sams Club- we managed to get everything on the list and only flowers as the extra add on (my very first Mothers Day gift!! ) 

Sunstar Flowers- they look fake they are so bright!!

Now this is an amazing feat considering we were both rather hungry- you should NEVER shop when hungry. On this same note, I think it should be banned from grocery shopping while pregnant... you come home with alot of Ruggles chips (with R-rr-idges) and Helluva Good dip a few random fruits, some juices that are all nasty despite their "delicious and organic" claims and some bags of pre-shredded potatoes for your morning/ afternoon/ midday snack (who DOESN'T want hashbrowns all day?!)

After Sams, we tried for a movie- all of which sucked and since we had both seen Hunger Games (me with my FAVORITE Justine & James, and him with Gina & the girls that get to do far more than I ever did at that age!). I think it left us Fishing for Salmon in Yemen? 




Looks good huh? So we nixed the movie idea and made a B-Line for Steak N Shake. Chili Mac Supreme, fries and a chocolate fudge brownie milkshake- can you say AMAZING?! In my defense, I did take over half the chili home. Then we walked the mall, got some "turkey pants" (see Friends clip), a slushie, some caramel corn, some cheese corn, a swing through Krispy Kreme (unfortunately the "Hot" light wasn't on, but that didn't deter us.) Then a nice tour of where people live and a walk through mall #2, where we got more cheddar corn and some cotton candy AND Baby's first Teddy Bear, made by grandpa
Bearemy being Stuffed. He/She was named "Clark"


I hope that our Squishy gets a date day out with daddy when they are old enough :)

PS- Should you ever wonder where your nearest Krispy Kreme is- they have an App for that! Hard to believe I know, I would tell you how well it works, but as I've said before, I have a stupid phone and am happy for the days it actually makes phone calls and sends texts. Sprint is NOT casting me in any of their commercials any time soon.

Just one of those days

" Today's the day! The sun is shining, the tank is clean, and we are getting out of here...THE TANK IS CLEAN?! The AquaScum 2003 is an all-purpose, self-cleaning maintenance free salt water purifier that is guaranteed to even extend the life of your aquarium fish. - curse you AquaScum !!! "  Quick- name that movie! ... anyone?  Finding Nemo of course! The sun IS shining, it IS a temperate 63 degrees out, and I am at work- with my beautiful view of the dumpster where the elderly man frequently confuses the stairwell for a bathroom and the trashbags for a free buffet!  In addition to that little chunk of heaven- I get to go rounds with one of our companies. Without getting into too many details- it's like trying to explain to a deaf person what sound a cow makes- doesn't matter how many times you write, act out, draw or mime- you get the same result- a blank stare. Normally, I can tolerate this company and the stress, craziness, stupidity and insan

Caden William

After a short two hours in the outside world, Caden, our perfect happy little boy was taken to the nursery to get checked out and cleaned up. A nurse came in shortly to let us know that regrettably, Caden was breathing a little faster than he should have been and that he would be moved to the special care nursery (NICU) to be evaluated. Usually babies are there about 24 hours and then are good to go back to mom and the regular nursery- and he just needed a little extra attention for a few good hours.  Dad had just left to go home and shower and gather himself. I called him, still calm and collected, and still surrounded by family. I was worried sick about my little boy and my dad took me in my wheelchair later to see him in his incubator. To sit and only make contact through a little hole with your baby is about the most helpless feeling ever. His little chest was going at what seemed like a million miles a minute. The nurse explained that his box was helping regulate his oxyge

Intestinal-Abdominus Who- I. Hate. You

This is how I feel currently- insert various stomach/ abdominal organs where Who-names are located... I am on Day Two of an antibiotic for my Bladder, in addition to the "pre-diabetes" med- which my Chiropractor kindly commented, aren't we all "pre-diabetic?" Thank-you Dr. Bill!, the prenatal vitamins, thyroid meds, Align, the extra Fiber, the colace, and the spiked apple juice that are all trying to combat my overstressed and non-working intestines. It's really like a party in my stomach right now! I feel like my medications have enrolled in e-harmony and are looking for their perfect match and just keep getting more friend to visit! Someone really needs to cancel their 90 day free trial! Basically I am miserable, I am up constantly at night to pee, then I can't go back to sleep (even though I don't turn on any lights so as not to disrupt my body's internal clock). By the time I do fall asleep my husband is leaving for work and then I have
