Girl- Ideas for nursery......

I have "the nursery" on my mind. I have found the cutest nursery bedding from Pottery Barn Kids, Target & BABYS R US. There is a possibility that I will change my mind or I will have a boy....hehehe!! A boy is actually what I have always wanted "first" but there is so much more "girl" stuff. Why is that?? Anyway...take a look.

Farm Girl..I love the windmill..one of my favorite things..if you have been to my house you so know that and I am a country girl.... :)



Birds.. Of course I love birds too!!



Rabbits..again what I love. I have been drawn to a "rabbit theme" since I found out I was pregnant. This would look really good with the colors I have in the room. Actually, all of them will......???




I like them all...the rabbit one is so cute and out of all of them I can really see it in the room. What do you think????? Go ahead comment- please.

Trip to the outlet mall.....

Well, I have no idea what we are having- we will hopefully find out in August. Boy or Girl??? We will be blessed either way. However, I am a little anxious and wanted to buy something today. So I bought something for a boy and a girl (with cute little toys to match). I can always give one away as a baby shower present!! So cute..its still so surreal to imagine me a mommy. I was out shopping today, looking at all the toys, little clothes and I thought what a blessing it is to have a baby. Finally, after all this time its "my turn"!!

Check out the cute little things I bought.......I have a thing for birds!!









P.S. I also bought me a cute litte black sun dress. I will get Keith to snap a picture of me tomorrow and I will post. I am sure you are wanting to see my "pregnant belly" !!

Just.......... ????

Today has been one of those days(weeks). I have been in tears all week. Maybe its my hormones or maybe certain people I know are not very understanding to the "pregnant woman". I am not asking for "special treatment- just "understanding". Either way, I didn't ask to be sick for the last 3 months- which I still am. I am so tired of apologizing for something I can't help. If you can't tell I am very stress. On top of that I have been really nervous about somethings and I know God is going to help me through it all. I am still learning to trust. I am just counting down the days until I can hold this little baby growing inside of me and everything else will not be important.

I received this on email and it was something I needed today!!

WORKPLACE PRAYER
Lord Jesus, as I enter this workplace, I bring your presence with me.I speak your peace, your grace, and your perfect order into the atmosphere of this office.I acknowledge your lordship over all that will be spoken, thought and accomplished within these walls.Lord Jesus, I thank you for the gifts you have deposited in me.I do not take them lightly, but commit to using them responsibly and well.Give me a fresh supply of truth and beauty on which to draw as I do my job.Anoint my creativity, my ideas, my energy so that even my smallest task may bring you honor.Lord, when I am confused, guide me; when I am weary, energize me.Lord, when I am burned out, infuse me with the light of your Holy Spirit.May the work that I do and the way that I do it bring hope, life and courage to all that I come in contact with today.And O Lord, even in this day's most stressful moment, may I rest in you.In the name of Jesus my Savior I pray. Amen.

On a lighter note - my craving!!!

This is GOOD!!!

A Surprise in the Mail - Thanks MOM!!!

Well,today was a rough day for me. I actually felt better it was just a BAD day at work. A lot of things going on and there is only one of me. (thank GOD right..hehe). So I am sitting at my desk in tears and then the mailman stepped in to my office an handed me a package it was from my MOM- perfect timing. Totally made my day. I wanted to share my surprise. Thanks again Mom. I love you very much!!

* the socks say I love my Mommy!!
* the bib says I love my Grandma!!
* the cutest little outfit (boy or girl) with a matching hat.!! Love it
* baby on board sign- can't wait to put it in my car!
* the sweetest card that made my day 100% better...my Mom is the greatest!!
Can't wait to see my sweet little baby in this outfit!! So excited -GOD IS GOOD!!

Why...

Why am I still sick? I really think it's getting worse- it has been today. I am so ready to feel better. It's been a rough day. There is always tomorrow.

Mistakes & Typos

I have noticed that I have made a lot of mistakes on my blogs. It might take a while for me to find them but, I will eventally go back and correct!!! I just have to laugh at some of them. My mind works faster than my hands. Typing is not something I am fabulous at. Oh well...I am sure you get what I am trying to say right!!

Ice cream is so good for a BAD day!!!

Well, let's see my day was busy. I am looking for a replacement for my assistant manager and believe me it's not going to be easy. So after digging through a pile of " unqualified or just no way" resumes I felt very discouraged. So I decided to leave my office for a while a get a "huge chocolate waffle cone" from Baskins Robbins -YUMMY!!! I headed into the store and ask for my ice cream. She rang up my order and it was $4.42 ( it was really BIG) and my check card would not work. So she gave it to me on the house. WOW, I thought that was so sweet, it made my day. So after I completely pigged out on my HUGE waffle cone...I headed back to the office and found some resumes. I have 4 interviews tomorrow and I had 1 good person today. So please keep praying for me. I need the right person and the right time...GOD is good and I had to repent for not trusting him today. This problem I have is so small compared to all others. God answered my prayer to have baby which is HUGE compared to this. God's timing is perfect. I should just relax and let GOD bring the right person to me. He provided Jaime for me and she had been a perfect assistant for more than a year. So why doubt now he will do it again!!!

Doctor's Visit - June 10th

Good Report :)!! I am so relieved. We tried to hear the heart beat with the microphone but only could hear mine. I was very nervous. So we moved rooms and did an ultrasound -still no heart beat but our baby was just moving all around. You could see the little arms and legs moving. Keith was so excited. He was like "look at it moving". The doctor said I am just on the borderline of hearing the heart beat so nothing to worry about. All looks very good. I gained 2 lbs and they gave me a different presciption for my nausea that shouldn't make me drowsy. My next visit is on July 15th - we should be able to hear the heart beat then. And the visit I am REALLY EXCITED about is August 11th - we should be about to find out the sex of our baby. We are very blessed today that all went well. I am still shocked "we are having a baby"!!! I have wanted this for a very long time. Can't wait to start decorating the nusery. FUN FUN!!!

A Little Nervous.

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow @ 11:15. Please pray all goes well. Also, I am still really sick (again today) pray that it finally goes away. I am just about in my 2ND trimester so it should. I am just so worn out. I have been so sick for weeks. I will write an update tomorrow after my visit. So keep reading...until tomorrow!!!

I did it.. bye-bye myspace :)

I finally cancelled myspace. I am so proud of myself for finally doing it. It should take 48 hours to complete. I really hope all my friends from myspace paid attention to my bulletins I posted and are now following me on this blog. I do plan on emailing everyone from myspace that gave me their addresses. I feel really good about my decision. I really like my new blog. It's a better fit for me at this point in my life.

Love this - Took it from Shelly's Blog

Feeling Yucky...12:21am

I have felt bad all night. I am so ready to stop being nauseous. Hopefully it will end soon. It's been weeks of it and I am just worn out!! I have to get up early tomorrow since it's Monday!! My busiest day @ work. I need to sleep but I can't. Its to late to take my meds - I will be so drowsy tomorrow. I wish I could stay home and rest. Not going to happen.. :( I go to the doctor on Tuesday so maybe he can give me another suggestion. "NO MORE CRACKERS".

For My Husband- HAHA!!

Please pray - Work Issue

This past week my assistant Jaime gave her 2 weeks notice. She had a baby last year who is now 6 months and the time is come for her to be at home. Also, she will be finishing her degree. I am very sad to see her go but completely understand. She will be very hard to replace. I don't have much time to find someone. June 20th is her last day - maybe sooner. I work in a small office and it's just me and Jaime. So the person that I hire, I have to completely trust. Also, the fact that I am only staying through my pregnancy not after and the apartment complex is for sale poses another issue when hiring. Please pray that I will find the right person for the job very,very soon. I am very nervous about this. I have not felt my best lately and this added stress is not good for me. I know God will help me through anything. Thanks for praying.

Reflecting.... June 8,2008

Just reflecting on my life today. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful, loving family. It is hard to be so far away from them but I know that they think about me all the time as do I with them. God is so good to provide everything thing I need in my life. And to top it off, to trust me enough to be a mommy to this baby growing inside of me. How awesome is that!! I am giving praise to my GOD today!!





P.S. Remember you can make comments on each of my blogs if you would like.

Me today - June 7, 2008

The picture says it all.

My Blog Name - June 7, 2008

You might be wondering how we came up with our blog name "itty bitty addition'. Well, when we bought our house we wanted to name it. Our place is called "itty bitty ranch" - I came up with it at 3:00 in the morning. We also just built an outdoor kitchen we are calling "itty bitty bar & grill". Keith actually came up with our blog name. It's just fits us perfectly. I have attached a picture of our front entry way of our house that display's our sign.

The last few weeks..

I am so grateful that I am pregnant. I will take the good with the bad. And the "bad" being "all" day sickness. It's been really hard for me being sick everyday. I am never sick and this has been a change. I have been told that it's almost over. I am 11 weeks today and hopefully the 2ND trimester is a lot better. I did get a prescription from my doctor to help but, it makes me to sleepy.

Cravings- Tomatoes, french fries- jack in the box, cucumbers, peaches. I haven't had much of an appetite due to being sick but, I can't wait until I want to eat.....because I plan on "pigging out". Just kidding- I have to watch my weight. I didn't start out as a "skinny girl" and I hope that I only gain about 20lbs- your probably saying " good luck with that". I can hope right!!

My husband (Keith) - He is great. I have found out that men react different to things than we do. He has been really patient with me feeling bad and my moods. I am a moody person and being pregnant has just topped that off. So pray for my husband. He is going to need it. :) :)

My parents & family- talk about excited. Finally their 33 yr old daughter is going to have a baby. Praise God!!! I am so lucky to have them in my life. My sister & brother are so excited - their 1st niece or nephew. About time...hehe!!!

My other family- Sandie, Bennie, Kristie, Bill & Tanner (Keith's family) are so excited. This will be their 2ND grand baby and they can't wait. I wish that we could see them more. They did live about 3 miles from us but just recently moved away. We see them when we can. Check out the great gifts they gave me under my pictures. I love them all. :) :)

Baby Names- Well I have had names picked out for a long time.

Girl - Rylee Rae (my mom's middle name)
Savannah Rae
Sadee Rae
Maddee Rae

Boy- Jackson Levi - We need a back up just in case. But we REALLY like this one!!

Exhausted- I thought I was tired before. Nothing compares to the feeling in your 1st trimester. I can barely get off the couch. But, I am still working so I can't sleep during the day. :( :(

Everything else - I will be blogging about. So remember to keep checking back in.

1st Doctor's Visit - May 13, 2008

I was so nervous to go to the doctor. This was my 1st time to meet Dr. Blair. I really liked him. My mom and sister came up for the visit. Everything looked good. I am due on December 26th- A Christmas baby!! I am so excited about that. On this day I was 7 weeks and 4 days.

Finally- April 19, 2008

We are pregnant and so excited. We have been trying for months so it was the best news ever. I am 33 yrs old and this is my 1st baby. The day I found out was so wonderful. My mom and sister had come up for a "girls weekend" to Fredricksburg. Of course my mom said you are getting a test since your late. Mom, I am not pregnant. Well after a fabulous day shopping, I was more tired than my usual self and my mom noticed it. So when we got home I snuck down stairs and took "the test" and I just knew it would be negative. Well, I was so wrong. Those 2 pink lines showed up so fast I took a double take and started shaking. I put the test in my shorts pocket, head up the stairs. My mom and sister said I was so white and looked scared. I showed them the test completely shaking saying " I'm pregnant" in my crying voice. They both leaped over the couch and screamed, crying and hugged me. Oh I forgot to mention my husband was out of town and unreachable for a few hours. I called, called, called with no luck decided to call my granny and dad. Finally, I told Keith about 10:30 that night in the middle of target on the phone. This was the most fabulous day. I couldn't have planned it better myself.
