200 Days!!

OK, so for all of you that check my blog on a regular basis, or used to and just got sick of checking because I wasn't doing anything with it, I'M SORRY. Although I keep telling myself I have a good excuse, in the back of my mind, I hate that I am such a slacker lately. Just for those of you who don't know, we are expecting our second baby!! (In fact today is our 200 day mark!) So that is one of the many reasons this blog has remained the same for the past "long time." I have to admit that this pregnancy has been glorious compared to the last one, but I still have the constant lump in my throat, churning stomach (otherwise known as nausea) and MAJOR fatigue all the time. Besides working two jobs, this seems to take all my energy and desires to do much of anything. I am just as shocked as some of you at the fact that it has taken me so long to announce this exciting news on my blog. But the truth is, I'm still in shock with the whole idea. This was not a planned pregnancy, and the timing couldn't be crazier. I had finally decided to start working as a CNA again, so I just got a job with a Home Health and Hospice company and was so excited about it. My schedule is Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6-8 and Saturday mornings from 9-2. It is just enough to get my break from being home 24/7 but not be away for too long. I had been working for them for not even two weeks when I found out the surprise. I have to say my boss was quite surprised too! Anyways, so I finally make a big decision (that took me forever to finally decide to do) and as soon as I do, I'm pregnant again. Sound familiar to anyone? Last time I got pregnant, I had finally decided to go back to school and get my Medical Assistant; which I was SO excited about. Then I couldn't even finish the first semester due to constant pewking. So that obviously did not work out! This cycle is quite interesting, and I think I'm learning a lesson from it! So back to me being pregnant again, I am currently almost 12 weeks along and I'm due on February 14, 2009 (Valentines Day). Even through all the surprise and shock of it all, we are getting more and more excited everyday. I just have to say that I am grateful more than ever for the 9 month gestation period because I definitely need it! I am planning on posting more things soon, but we'll see what happens! I am way behind and there are a ton of things I want to post from months ago so you'll just have to bear with me for a while, or just not read this blog for a while...you choose!
