Well first of all, we got a new addition added to the family a few months ago!
Her name is Izzy and she is my baby. She is 3 years old. (Jonny's relatives were looking for a new home for her and I'm so happy they picked us to keep her!) Her first 2 weeks with us were....interesting....very interesting. We felt like we had a newborn baby! She didn't sleep but always would meow and jump on us and wake us up when we were trying to sleep! Thankfully she has settled down and now lets us sleep through the night ha ha! She is a very hyper cat and has this thing where she always runs right in front of you so you almost trip over her. She cries in the mornings until I pick her up. But she also is officially my guard cat, the other day Jonny was bothering me and I was faking that I was hurt saying "ow, ow, ow!!!" and she came running to me faster than I have ever seen her run to see if I was ok! She does this every time I stub my toe on the bed (which really happens way more times than it should) and any other time I call out "ow!"
She and I are the best of friends!
Well, we also get ANOTHER addition added to the family in August! We are expecting our first baby on August 16 and we are ABSOLUTELY thrilled!!
I am just over 16 weeks pregnant and I THINK (fingers crossed) that I may finally be past the morning sickness! I was lucky in the sense that I didn't get my morning sickness(more like ALL day sickness) until 8 weeks, but seriously the last 2 months felt like the longest months of my ENTIRE life. I may or may not have googled "pregnancy sucks" numerous times just to read about other people who were also miserably sick....somehow it made me feel better ;) (Don't get me wrong...I know some people can't have kids and I don't take the blessing of pregnancy lightly, I am SO thankful, but when your head and the toilet become the best of friends it's sometimes hard to be positive lol)! I craved fruit all the time but baby clearly did not....I craved vegetables but once again, baby clearly did not....so I spent the last 2 months living on mac & cheese, pop tarts, and basically any type of cake, cookies, or muffins that were loaded with sugar! :S Needless to say, as of 3 days ago, I was brave enough to try a kiwi...and IT STAYED DOWN! Then I tried a plum.... AND IT STAYED DOWN!!!!! yup happiest girl in the world! I can finally eat my fruit again! yummmm!!! So now that I am feeling better I'm really looking forward to these next months of pregnancy!!! Now if only my baby belly would grow a little so I could look pregnant rather than like I ate far too many donuts lately! ;) And in 2 weeks today we get to find out if we will be buying pink or blue!
Well work is going well for Jonny Today Jonny starts his job as team manager! (yes, he got another promotion). I am SOOOOO proud of him and I know he will make a fabulous manager.
I know I have had more highlights in these last 6 months than I can remember but can we blame it on pregnancy brain? I'm totally drawing a blank here so that's all for now :)
