Location - Boise, ID!

We've been at our new home for 2 weeks now.  I am almost done unpacking and finding where I want everything.  The house is abit smaller than our old house, but it seems more cozy.  We lived in a 3 bedroom 2 floor house for 3 years and now live in a 1 floor 3 bedroom.  The downsize is that the 3rd bedroom cannot be an office.  It's a nursery!  So we're using the formal dining room as our office.

The weather is taking some time to get use to.  It's almost always sunny here!  I am use to not seeing the sun for weeks at a time.  I was super excited to find out we have built in air conditioning when we 1st moved in.  It was THAT warm.  But now it's freezing! 

The neighbors are annoying.  Well, their kids are.  They were at my door 4 times a day for the 1st couple of days.  They are rather young, age ranging from 3-7.  Kids seem to migrate towards me, but right now, I could really use some quiet time, especially since my dogs hate them. 

The dogs... The drive here with them in the car for 13/14 hours was AWFUL.  Our shepherd didn't like when any of us left her view for potty breaks, she would flip out and try to jump through the car window.  She was being very protective.  My little dog was all over me, and was caught eating a McDonald's hamburger in the car...which made him sick.  The Valium that was prescribed for them didn't do anything!  and then was advised to pick up benedryl.   That seemed to knock them out for a while.  But made them sketchy and weird the next day. 

Other than that! We're settled down and getting use to it.

Missing in Action - I'm Back!

It's nice to be back!

I had to take a -mini- blog vacation.  There was someone posting on my blog who really wanted my attention.  So much that he started to contact me via facebook, and through family.  WEIRD.  So I took my blog down for a bit to help them forget about me =]

So much to catch up on!  Time to flood y'all with some updates =)

The Move is ON!

My husband got the job offer through his work!  For supervisor role!  Which means double the money, and RELOCATION!

Worried about my gremlin dog in a car for 8+ hours

Oh, did I metion that all of this has to go down in 3 weeks?  Lord help me!

I survived!

2 root canals in 3 hours!

I have to go back in 2 weeks since we ran out of time today, so I have temp fillings in.  They numbed me up pretty good and I honestly didn't feel much.  The only thing I felt was a dull throbbing pain in my lower tummy...

I woke up with a constant ache, and called the OB from the dentist, to see if they were okay with me sitting there for 3 hours getting a root canal with this pain. They couldn't fit me in till 1:20pm anyways, so they said to go ahead with the root canals. 

We had to stop off at the lab to give a urine sample to rule out a UTI, then headed to the OB.  I don't have an infection!  Turns out I have "Irritation of the Ligament Nerve"  I always get the round ligament pain when I get out of bed, and lately I've been getting up every 2 hours to pee, so it makes sense.

Baby looked great.  I'm only a bit over 16 weeks and the baby's sac is measuring up to my belly button already.  Probably cause I'm short?  and I got for my regularly scheduled OB appt next week!

Root Canal Day!

Hooray!?

no, BOO!

I've never had one before and now I get two in one sitting.  GO me!  I am scared to death, but trying my hardest not to even think about it, cause worrying, and stressing about it won't help.  Heck, it will only make me bitchy there, and the moment anyone looks at me funny, I may use that as my excuse to just leave. 


~~~DEEP BREATH~~~

Brown/Blue

A few people at my husbands work knew that we were having a hard time TTC.  They knew because of all the time we had to get off last year for all the cycles we did.  So I thought it would be cute to make them cupcakes that would reveal the gender of the baby.

You would think that it being blue would be a HUGE hint, right?  Nope!  One of the ladies thought we were announcing we were adopting a brown baby.  what?!  Is it because of the frosting color?  So strange!

What's even more strange is looking at boy clothes!  It looks like the cupcake colors will be the main colors of his room!  There seems to be alot of dark browns and blues =) and I'm okay with that, unless they tell me at my anatomy scan that there is NO PENIS, that it was a mistake!  ha!

It's a...............

BOY!!!

Boy was I wrong!  I had myself and others convinced I was having a girl! ha!  And he was proud to show us what he had within a minute of the ultrasound!  Then he got shy, hid it with 1 hand, and sucked on his other.  She kept checking and he then he finally gave  up and gave us another good shot, and then we got some pictures.  We also got a 20 minute long video of the entire ultrasound =)  Was amazing.

This morning before we left I had everyone tell me what they thought I was having, and only my husband and mother said boy!  So I called my mom from there and asked her again "What do you think the baby is?"  and she said boy...I said it's a boy! and she started screaming IT'S A BOY!! - IT'S A BOY!!!. she was shopping with her friend at the time! hahaha!

So there we go!  Amelia has a penis, and can no longer be named Amelia :P
