Thanks For Making The Decision For Me


      Well folks, the verdict is 100%, and positively in. I AM NOT GOING TO SUMMER SCHOOL. Yes, I cried my eyes out over it but when I woke up this morning I felt refreshed, invigorated, and a lot better. It was either the "sleeping on it idea" or not getting out of better till almost 1pm that made me feel that way. Anyway, I went to view my summer schedule for school last night and saw that it was blank....hmmm...did a little research and found that I was "de-registered for non payment" which is a crock because my financial aid, and FAFSA cover all that. NVC basically made the decision for me. As much as I wanted to get 2/3 classes out of the way, I also need to prepare for little miss Aubrey and enjoy the last few weeks I have just being Allie before I become Mommy. It's still super weird knowing I AM going to be a mother. From now till whenever she decides she's ready to welcome us I'll be getting her room ready, practicing my "house-wife" skills, and enjoying the next 8-9 weeks of being me. When I first found out we were going to have a baby, I thought to myself "this is crazy I only know me, this is going to be hard letting go the last 26 years". I don't really think about it that way anymore, however the transition is going to be complete opposite from what I am used to. I know that everything happens for a reason so I guess I can thank NVC for dropping me so that way I can enjoy the journey. 

P.S.  Today is the 32 week mark, I am 8 months along.

Relaxing For Once

Well I was right, the next time you would hear from me it wouldn't be about the "S" word (school). I am peacefully laying on my couch, watching Fashion Police, and watching my belly move around because Aubrey is having a lil solo party right now (must have been the yummy dinner I had). I went to a nice little BBQ this evening then the hosts started fighting, it got awkward and I ended u leaving. So now I am basically waiting for Brett to get off work So we can hang out for a bit before we got to bed. Tomorrow is the big day, we get to see our baby!!!!!! We're having a 3d ultra sound done, we're both so excited to see what baby Aub's looks like, whose nose she has, if she yawns, or smiles during. We can't wait!!!!! I'll post pics and some video clips most likely tomorrow, but for now I'll leave you with a few outside the womb pics of us both.

The End is Near

My last day of school for the Spring 2012 semester is Monday 5/21.  I couldn't be more relieved.  I literally want to scream from a mountain top that's how happy  I am SO HAPPY this semester is finally over.  However, I will barely pass my math class.  If I get a D that means if I ever plan on transferring to a real college I will have to re-take the class to get a C or better (UC's and CSU's only take C's or better) so that's the only bummer about it.  Other than that, I feel very confident about my 2 other classes that I took.  That D though will totally bring my GPA down, and I've been working really hard to get it to a 3.5 so I can join the honor society.  I really want to graduate with honors, and wear honor stols.  I talked to my math teacher and he said I won't fail but it sort of unmotivates me into not wanting to study because he said the only way I's fail is if I turned in the final blank.  This teacher really is a horrible one.  I should have stayed in the last Math 99 class I was in.  In the end I am trying to study but it's really hard with out a pre-test ot some sort of guide because there are so many things I have to try to remember.  Uhg.  Anyway wish me luck!!!!  And hopefully my next post will be about 3D ultra sounds, our baby shower, and getting her room ready.

Raging-30 weeks

      Today I read about raging hormones and how they're supposed to kick in.  I can say that I am quite thankful (compared to my other friends) that I haven't been that hormonal-raging-pregnant-woman.  I discount the time I pushed someone, but he was getting too close.  I am very thankful I don't have that crazy pregnant lady reputation.  In other news I am 30 weeks today, give or take 10 more weeks to go till Aubrey is here.  We are all excited for her arrival.

Helllllo!

      Hello everyone!  Its been a while since I have posted so here we go.

      The past few weeks have been quite eventful.  I won't get into too much detail but I am glad these little bumps in the road have passed.  Im positive I will encounter more but thank God today is a new day.  Brett and I went to a wedding and it was fantastic, they had a room full of desserts and that Im sure would make any pregnant woman's day.  Oh man it was good.  Plus it was the first time Brett and I have EVER had a Saturday off together. 
      I got some good news regarding my maternity leave.  I'll get 6 weeks paid disability, and then I'll get an additonal 6 weeks of FLMA.  It's unpaid and doesn't guarantee me a job but we'll see how it works out.  Other good news, I am 3 classes away from having my AA degree!!!!!!!  I couldn't be more excited you guys.  I decided I am going to attend summer school to knock out 2 of the classes, then I'll only have 1 left!!!!!  However, if I want to transfer I'll have 4 more aside from these last 3.   Finals are coming up and I need to do a lot of studying, so I am cutting it short to read some articlos related to my Anthropology final.  Hope everyone is doing fantastic!!!!

10 more weeks of carrying this lil sweet girl inside me!

A real 3d ultra sound is coming up on the 26th.
