Thanksgiving Day 2010

What a blessing, Ingles had pre-coked turkeys. I was so happy that my parents had volunteered to prepare and cook the turkey I slept till 7 thinking that it would be all done and in the oven, however I was greeted with the fact that the turkey that had been thawing in the fridge, for four days was still too frozen to cook. I had a moment of pure panic...then I remembered all the commercials that 98.9 had been playing and called Ingles, they had pre-cooked turkeys that you heat and serve, so Hugh and I went and picked it up and then we got home and Du-dads were well on the way Praise the Lord for cool parents I love mom and dad. boy pregnancy hormones are the worst I could hardly stop crying. After breakfast we got everything around and the lunch was right on time, everyone said the turkey was good. after cleaning up we sat and fellow-shipped for a while while Hugh and josh took the kids to the park. when they got back we had desert. and I(I mead Dad) got the other turkey in the oven it should be done by 9 and then we will have very good "leftovers" for the next couple of days.
We are now watching 'White Christmas' to get us in the Christmas mood there is still a load of dishes to do but that can can wait...
We are going out BLACK friday shopping in the morning yikes.

So far So Good

Praise the Lord for no morning sickness, I know it can happen the whole first trimester but so far I only get heart burn, I always have had heartburn, but now it is more regular. I have made the switch to tums from Maalox yuck I can't wait to switch back. My pants have begun to get tighter and my husband says that my chest is bigger but I can't really tell.
I am so thankful that my sisters are helping me with furnishing the nursery. I am borrowing Christy's crib and Holly's bassinet, that will help us a lot.
Today my kitchen is getting redone, my mother in-law decided that because she did it for Deborah and Bill (Hugh's sister and brother-in-law) that it was our turn, stainless steel is going to be nice, although I am supposed to feed people tonight and the gas stove is not getting hooked up until after 6:30. I am so excited about coking on the new stove though especially for Thanksgiving.

Tums and such

So today we went grocery shopping for the week of Thanksgiving, yikes two full hours of walking I already get tired out fast. I usually use Maalox for heartburn but I have switched to tums for that is what the pregnancy book says. I got the 750 count. yikes if the early month is an indication i will need every single one.
I already feel some abdominal discomfort nothing serious but it is nice to know something is happening. There is a pair of work pants that I have that slims the tummy and I already can't wear them.
Melanie and Holly brought me little onesies pink and blue cute little pants for both and a teething ring.
I ate at Fatz tonight I enjoyed it but paid for it later.
I am not so sure I am ready for motherhood...babysitting two grown girls 6 and 11 and I want to pull my hair out and theirs if that would help.

Blog stealer at work again :)

OK so I am now stealing Stephanie's like I steal the other sisters. Hers will not let me comment so here is my comment. I am so thankful that the Lord has answered our prayers. I can not wait for an amazing little one (or more?) to arrive. Now I have to decide do I want to pray for multiples for her? could be really fun. Probably would be more fun If I did not live with them. Well I do have to say that she is ecstatic that she does not have to have shots to do IVF. So Glad that God worked in His time and they will not have to dole out all that money. I am ready for this little person that I get to spoil and give back. I am not ready to be having a little one of my own. I am the doting aunt and not quite ready to be the full time care giver. Well I love my sister, and I am so SO SO excited. God is good all the time. - M

BIG NEWS

Yippee, Praise the Lord, Hallelujah, God is so good, I am Pregnant:) :) :) My approximate due date is July 14, 2011.

I was supposed to start on Wednesday, November 3, I was distressed because I was attending Gospel Light Baptist Church's Ladies Conference with Christy and Her church and I didn't want to be uncomfortable or inconvenienced. I usually get a sign the night before that I am going to begin the next day, that did not come. The next day I had a dentist appointment in Anderson, Hugh was not with me and I got lost and I ranted and cried at Hugh, I was overly upset I thought it was PMS. I did not get X-ray because I might be...

I checked every time I went to the bathroom I was sure I had started...

On Monday I still had not started, I wanted to test that day but Hugh suggested I wait till a week.

I had to borrow money from Melanie and Her and I went to CVS to get it. This morning I peed and I was like this happened before, peeing on a stick I mean, I just set it down and then I took my morning Med and was like whatever, then when It was positive I was like, Praise Jesus. I went into the other room and told Hugh, and we prayed together and thanked the Lord. We tried to call Mom and no answer, I tried her cell no answer, tried tried tried called Daddy to see if he knew where she was and I told him he was happy, then Hugh called his parents, then we tried to call mom again and again, then we went to HH Greg and he showed me the appliances that are coming on The 18Th and that is when I go to the first doctors visit. any way tried to call mom again. went out to lunch, then we came home and Hugh wanted to move furniture in our room around to make room for a crib, then I tried to call mom again, I wen to work, mom finally called and I missed it then I called her back and told her, she was so excited. she wanted to call everybody. Holly and Melanie already bought a gift, for us. any way I will try to blog about all the things I feel and hope and stuff. Again I want to say PRAISE THE LORD HALLELUJAH
