I am learning already...

For the past 2 weeks or so, I have begun to feel some kicking. I feel most of her kicks when I am hungry or it is about time for dinner. Today, I didn't have time for breakfast, so I skipped hoping I could hold off until lunch. All during class baby girl was kicking like crazy. On the way home to meet David for lunch, I got really aggravated, emotional, and just all out angry because I was STARVING by this point. I now realize that this baby is JUST like her mommy...we get mad and aggravated when we are hungry. Note to self: please remember in a few months that when it's time to eat, that means now and not a second later. I told David we are going to have a grumpy baby if she doesn't get her food on time, because she is already showing these tendencies. It reminds me of Bella when the clock strikes 3:00. At exactly 2:59 (well, sometimes earlier) everyday, Bella will find you where ever you are and bug you until you stop whatever you're doing and go fill up her food bowl. I usually give her a spoonful of wet food at this time, I think that has spoiled her.

In addition, I got so emotional when the dogs wouldn't pee in the right spot today. Like there is even a right spot to pee in?! There has never been before...I believe I am the most emotional preggo yet. I haven't had many emotional breakdowns, but this one was silly. Well, maybe not as silly as the one I had a few weeks ago when I started crying because I saw litter in the road. But, other than those two, I haven't had many.

Well, so much for an emotional-free day. Welcome to pregnancy, Amber.

A big thanks

Baby Watson at 17 weeks!

I think I have winded down some after yesterday's events...but I am still in awe. I do believe that our baby girl already has a closet bigger than mine. She has accumulated a lot already due to her mommy being an overly excited pregnant woman. I am now on the lookout for a cheap Paul Frank outfit to go home in. We found the cutest bootie and hat set yesterday, but I need to outfit to match. David and I just love the monkeys! We exchanged the overalls and baby boy onesies that David bought a few weeks ago for a cute, pink "Daddy loves me" outfit. I don't think David minds. Then, we made a stop by Goodwill and left with 10 more outfits all in pink. I swore I would never go pink crazy if it was a girl, but some things are meant to be changed. Right?





Baby also made a milestone today when she responded to daddy's voice. He kissed her goodbye after lunch and she did a really big kick. Oh, it is absolutely amazing. This is the most exciting time in my life and I plan on treasuring every single moment.





I was looking over the ultrasound pictures yesterday and noticed how big her feet were (look above). This baby's foot is as big as her leg bone. Does this mean she is going to be tall? She must have her great-grandmother's feet and height. That makes me smile a bit, because I know my Grandma Frances is very proud of this little one already. She would have LOVED to see me pregnant. In a way, I feel like the birth of a new baby somehow carries memories of the past. I just have this idea that somehow or another, a new baby has a link to the past. Whether it be by carrying on the personality of someone who has passed, by the way they look, their birthday, or even by their name. Somehow, someway. Maybe this little one is honoring my grandmother by having her tallness! I wonder if it's possible for a trait to be passed down 3 or more generations? I mean, I am somewhat tall for a female. I also wear a size 9 or 10, which is not average by any means. David's family has tall people too, but he isn't very tall for male. He is about a 1/2 inch taller than me, which is about average. I made a joke yesterday that this baby might have already outgrown her new newborn booties and socks...uh oh.





Thank you to everyone who has congraguated us and wished us good blessings. It warms my heart to know we have so many friends and family who are praying and wishing this pregnancy will continue to be healthy and that in a few months we can welcome a baby girl into the world. We feel very blessed and can not wait to see what kind of woman she will become.

A life changing day...

Oh goodness, how do I begin? Let's start with the doctor's appointment update...

We went in and waited anxiously for our appointment to start. I had orange juice and diet coke before my appointment to ensure that our precious bundle was moving good enough for pictures. I thought I was going to get blood drawn and all those other minor check-up things first, but the ultrasound tech called us right back in. We get into the room, and the first thing she asks us is "Do you want to know what it is?" I said, "OMG, WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR 4 WEEKS! OF COURSE WE DO!!!" She didn't make us wait any longer, as soon as she put the thingy to my belly, we got a perfect leg shot. However, her legs were still slightly closed where it was hard to tell. Then, she opened them wider and the tech said, "100% girl." I looked at David and just smiled. I knew it all along. Baby girl gave us some really good shots of her body, but we never were able to see her face. She had her fists balled up right over her face the entire time. But, she is so precious none-the-less. She was so hyped up from that OJ...so was her mommy. Heartbeat was 162, so maybe the saying does apply here. :)

After the appointment, David and I went pink crazy. I don't think I need to explain further.

The last post before our world changes forever...

Hello virtual world, this here is the very last post before our world changes forever. In less than 48 hours, we should know the gender of our first child. To some, this may not be an extraordinary event, but to me, this is life-changing. Will I be a soccer mom, or a ballet mom? Will I be painting the nursery pink or blue? Will I buy outfits with lace and hearts, or trucks and bears? Tuesday is a very special day, and after aproximetly 11 am, David and I will be able to call our child by it's name. I am so excited if you can't tell. There are so many things I can not wait to do to prepare for baby's arrival. Most of these things require me to know the gender. Some parents choose to be surprised, but I am totally amazed how they are patient enough to wait. I would NEVER be able to wait 9 months without knowing. My nerves would be totally shot. I would feel so unprepared and my life would be chaotic. In order to avoid this, I need to know the gender. Yes, we have picked out names (well, atleast the first names with a few optional middle names).

I am praying every second that this baby isn't shy and shows mommy and daddy all his or her parts. If this baby new how anal its mother is, it won't let me wait any longer. It was so funny last night when David and I were playing with our new fetal monitor. You can hear little kicks because they sound like faint thumps. When David asked if it was a boy, we got nothing...a girl, nothing...Then, we asked if it didn't know what it was either, it kicked. Haha. Hilarious.

I can not wait to tell everyone if we are having a boy or girl. I am making this my last post before Tuesday so that I can keep myself occupied tomorrow waiting without having to think about it. VOTES PLEASE!!! Boy or girl???

We shall see :)

Wonderful Day!

Wow, today was very eventful. First, let me start off by saying that my wolfpack boys played an amazing game today...4-0! This morning, David and I woke up super early to attend a grand opening event at the smart momma baby store here in town. The event started at 10, and we were in for about a 20 minute drive (we aren't morning people). We were able to enter many raffles, and one big one in particular that has me very excited. Besides smaller raffles, we entered the store raffle where we could win a nursery chair, strollers, a breast pump, and other great gifts! (I am crossing my fingers for one of them...would be nice huh?) We even got a free goodie bag! After eating some very yummy celebration cake and buying baby an NC State hat, we left the store feeling pretty lucky. I decided we should visit the Babies R Us while we were in the neighborhood, since the drive was so far away. We went in and were offered to do a registry. We spent over 3 hours adding items to our registry...I even found an AWESOME stroller I just love. Babies R Us has become my newest obession, however, it will never beat goodwill and consignment deals. OH...Did I mention my amazing find on Friday? I went to my favorite consignment and found a fleece jumper from old navy for over half price off than what they are in the store now. Definetly needed one of those for the cold weather in February and March. Ok, back to my story...We left Babies R Us feeling very accomplished. But, I was a little depressed that I hadn't bought anything major yet. While sitting at home and watching the game on TV, I was browsing Walmart.com for cribs and such. OMG...I found the exact crib I wanted from Babies R Us for $100 cheaper. Yeah, you guessed it, I bought it. I am very excited and will be receiving babies crib in just a week or two. Assembly required...thanks Daddy.

Wow, what an amazing day. I can't believe I have made the first major step toward a completed nursery. I mean, you can't have a nursery without a crib right? I am looking for a changing table to match. See picture below :)

Oh, I am so excited already. Is it Tuesday yet? One last major excitement today...I bought a prenatal monitor while shopping today, and was able to hear baby kicks in my tummy...purely magical. I am so in love...

Funny Friday

I found this to be VERY hilarious. TGIF!

I found an amazing bible verse today that really spoke to me:

Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you. Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for Him to act.
Psalm 37:5,7

As I watch my belly grow, I can't help but to become a little afraid of the months and years ahead. Every mother questions whether she will do everything right, and what if she doesn't? I already know that for the first few weeks of raising my child, I will be scared to death and worry about what I am doing right or wrong. And I have no doubt that those fears will resurface every once in awhile as my child reaches their milestones in life. I overheard someone the other day say that you will never stop worrying once you have a baby; you'll worry about labor, then you'll worry about whether they are eating enough or getting enough sleep, then you'll worry about whether they are crawling right or eating the right foods. Worrying should be a mother's middle name. If you ask my mother what my middle name is, she'll already tell you its "worry." I have always been that way, and I can only imagine how it will get worse once March approaches. Someone also told me once that your baby will have no idea if your doing things right or wrong and to just go with the flow. In a way, that makes me feel a lot better knowing that my child will love me unconditionally no matter how many times I mess up early on. I know that by taking one look into their eyes, all the pain will be worth it. I can sit for hours and stare at my ultrasounds...I found myself one day sitting in the floor of the soon to be nursery just flipping through the ultrasound album over and over. It amazes me how that beautiful face came out of such love. You never can really grasp what love feels like until you look into the eyes (or ultrasound eyes) of your own child. That child came to be because of you and your love for your spouse....isn't that just amazing?

Amazing it is. The bible verse above is very calming to hear and understand. It helps me to know that everything will be taken care of as long as I trust in God. I realize that God only puts as much on your shoulders as he thinks you can handle...and that realization has brought me very far in life thus far. I have not been through anything that I didn't come out fine on the other side. He walked me through every tribulation and bump in the road. Now, I trust in him to carry me through the rest of this pregnancy and through my journey of motherhood.

I will never stop worrying, as "worry" is my middle name, but I have faith that good things will come. In just a few months, our lives will change forever, and I will forever worry about my child's wellbeing. But, I will:

Commit everything I do to the Lord.

In need of advice...

As I am shopping for baby clothes, I am realizing that baby is going to need some fleece sleepers and/or outfit for the winter season. Since baby is due in late February or early March, I am thinking the weather may be a bit cold. Any mommys out there with experience bringining home a baby in cold weather? What did you dress them in? What about to go outside? Will a blanket do, or will the baby need an extra outer layer of clothing?

I am dreading being a first-time mom only because I have NO IDEA what I am doing. I realize babies love to be warm, even in hot weather, but I am worried the baby will be too cold in whatever I choose for the first few months. I am in need of some advice!!! I will be purchasing babys first outfit home in the next few weeks, so I really want to be prepared with all the advice I can get.

In the meantime, take a look at this adorable outfit I bought today from consignment. I do believe I am becoming obsessed with the monkey themed outfits and duck themed outfits.

That's what I love about Sundays

Ahhh...it felt so good sitting on the porch today with a gentle breeze blowing. As soon as I stepped into the sun, I realized the weather wasn't quite what I thought it would be. When is it going to be fall? I do believe my calender said that the first day of Autumn was this coming Thursday. That is very exciting, but the weather won't match up. The stores get their fall and halloween decorations out and it tempts me everytime...but, I know how NC weather operates. We won't see cold until late October or even November. However, I did have a chance to wear my new mommy jeans from Old Navy this past Friday. David and I went out to a cute little pizza place in Cary and it was just "cold" enough to wear a short-sleeve shirt, flip flops, and my mommy jeans (on a side note, those things are comfortable! I may be wearing them long after my belly has shrunk :) ).

If you don't know by now, David and I have our next OB appointment next Tuesday the 28th when we find out the gender. Lord have mercy, I don't think I can make it one more week. I have already bought atleast 10 outfits for the little one...mostly in whites and yellows. I am waiting until next week to really get to shopping. But get this, I have bought atleast 10 onesies, a hat, 2 bibs, 3 socks, 1 bootie, 2 pairs of pants, and a cute monkey outfit and only spent $16. How? You may ask...key word: Goodwill. David and I spent the last 2 saturdays rumaging through the infant bucket in our local Goodwill. I make sure every outfit I pick up either has a tag still on it or looks VERY, VERY clean. Then, we take them home and give the clothes a good wash. I am amazed on how much baby's closet is already staking up and for less than $20. I mostly love the monkey jumper we found with the tag still on it. It is very cute! I do believe I am falling in love with the monkey and duck themed outfits. Adorable. I will post pictures as soon as possible.

Have a great week everyone, and remember me as I try and get through this week knowing I have atleast 7 days to wait.

I am loving this cooler weather...well, actually, it isn't cooler...it is just less humid. I can sit on the porch, listen to the wind chime, and not feel like I am going to sweat to death. When the wind blows, it really makes it feel like fall. I am ready for winter mainly because I want to rock my new mommy jeans my grandmother bought me. No, only kidding...that isn't the only reason I like winter. I just like to be cold in general.

Can't you tell I have a preggo brain? I keep switching topics...but the real reason I am writing this post is to comment on how pets react to their "mommy" being a mommy. I have started to notice my unsocial cat becoming a little more social, as well as, my dog sitting at the door while I take a bath. It seems like they have become more protective and a little more needy. Bella, the cat, is usually very unsocial unless she is hungry. She never wants to sit near you or around you. But for the past few weeks, she wants to always sit beside the keyboard while I am on the computer (even right now), and she follows me around meowing a lot more than usual. She has even started to groom our dogs when they lay beside her. She'll lick their ears and face. The dogs seem to have become more protective of me...except maybe for Haylie. Haylie seems to be more needy. They follow me from room to room and lay right beside me during nap time. I did an experiment the other night to see how much they actually followed me. I went from room to room sitting down each time, and yep, they followed me everywhere I went (no matter what room David was in). Have any of you Mommy's or Mommy's to be notice changes in your pets? I don't know why it has all the sudden kicked in? Maybe they have noticed my growing belly? Or is it the pheromones have increased? It would be interesting to know.

Boy or Girl?

I.can.not.wait.

September 28th is coming wayyyyyy toooooo sllllooow. It is only about 2 weeks away, but I think about that appointment everyday. It is kind of nerve wracking to know that baby may not be as active and we'll never get a good picture. Then, we would have to wait another week. AH that would be HORRIBLE. David and I have already picked out names for either a boy or a girl. And, I am pretty sure they are 100% definite. The exciting part is, I will NOT disclose those names until further notice :).

In the meantime, I am still waiting on that 2nd trimester energy boost. I really don't know where it is, but it needs to come asap. I skipped class today and slept in, which is totally not like me. I am usually ready to get up and start the day. I even went to bed early last night, which put me at about 13 hours of sleep. WHAT?! Crazy, I know. Tomorrow, I will be 16 weeks! WOOHOO. Seems like it was just yesterday that David and I were at the OB having our 6 week ultrasound and thinking, "wow, that thing looks sooo tiny." It went from being a speck of black on the screen to a speck of white with arms and eyes to a bouncy baby with a head, arms, legs, eyes, nose, and mouth. I can only imagine how the ultrasounds from here on out will be like. It will be amazing to see our baby's growth and movements.

September 28th, Please come as fast as you can so that I can start shopping for pink or blue.

Can you say MOOD SWINGS?

I dreaded them...I knew they were coming...A part of me thought I would never have them...mood swings dun dun dun.

I totally had a major breakdown today when David's coworker answered his phone and I hung up quickly. The coworker knew it had to of been me and David was making fun of me for "always hanging up on people." I blew up and was mad at him for several hours. I usually call his work and chat about my morning and then we talk about what we want for lunch, but I never made that call. When he finally called on his way home to lunch, I answered, "WHAT?!" Haha. It seems so silly now, but boy, I sure am having some major mood swings. I also find that I am getting more ticked off at random things and random people more than ever. For instance, I get so angered when people are driving the wrong way down a lane in the parking deck. Normally, I would whisper to myself, "You idiot, wrong way," and go about my business. But, now, I find I am sincerely angered by it. One more funny example...when I drive down a road and see trash on the sidewalk, or in the grass, I get so angry at whomever put it there. Normally, I would never even notice. Feels like PMS 24/7. Yeah, yeah, laugh at me...but, I really can not help it sometimes. I am blaming all of this on baby. Baby is making mommy moody.

On a much happier note, I am thrilled for the home game on Thursday. I missed the first game against WCU. I hope we can put another "W" on the board after Thursday night. Go PACK!

Mindless Monday

Picture of the Day:

The wonderful bond between human and animal. I loved this picture of the day because it explains a lot about who I am. Happy Monday!

Image thanks to Kodak.com Picture of the Day

I gave in...

Ok, know how I said I wasn't going to buy anything baby related until we found out what we were having? Well, too bad that promise was broken about 2 months ago...haha. No, on a serious note...I told myself I would not buy any clothes until we knew the gender. Well, today we were at goodwill...and the story begins.

Sometimes, I can get a little freaked out about wearing other people's clothes, but sometimes I find really good deals. Goodwill had infant clothes for $.39 today. I gradually strolled over to the bin just to "take a peak." I ended up spending about 45 minutes sorting through infant clothes. In the end, I bought 3 onesies, a hat, a bib, and a cute little pair of pants (all were for either 0-3 months or 3-6 months). And should I even tell you how much I spent? AMAZING. Some of them were even from Land's End and hardly looked used at all. I gave them a good wash and will be storing them in baby's new closet! All of the clothes were neutral colors like white and pale yellow, but the pants were definetly for a girl...I couldn't resist. Oh crap...I totally forgot about the cute overalls David and I bought a month ago...so I guess this really wasn't my first time buying baby clothes. No, actually, it is...David bought the overalls and brought them home to me. So, I wasn't there! See...HA! Why am I making excuses. I clearly violated the rules. But overalls are different, right?

I was going to post pictures of Baby Watson's new clothes, but I am just too darn lazy to go find the camera, wait for the upload, and then post on the blog. Maybe next time :). Take my word for it, they are PRECIOUS!

Happy birthday baby sis!

Just a mini update for all of my faithful readers (haha). I am 15 weeks this week! So exciting to to know that in just a short time, I will be holding a beautiful bundle of joy. Last night, I had a dream that we had a baby boy with beautiful dark brown hair. In my dream, I woke up that next morning to find him snuggled up in his blue blanket sleeping away. I picked him up, went to make some coffee (i don't drink coffee), and read a newspaper on the porch (i don't really read the newspaper either). What a strange dream...and all I can remember about it was that the baby had a lot of dark brown hair. I wonder why I keep dreaming about having a baby boy...when I swear everyday it is a girl. Only time will tell. How many more weeks? ONLY TWO until I get to find out :). Well, we never really know for SURE until delivery, but we'll have a good guess.

I think my sister was supposed to be a boy for the longest time...surprise! Wow, I can only imagine how life would be so different if she really was born a boy. But, I am glad I have a baby sister. Did I mention today is her birthday? Happy birthday baby sister! I still remember the day she was born (or the night rather). I have a short little story to tell about my baby sister that I hope you will enjoy...
Before my mom was even pregnant, I was wishing for a baby sister. My grandmother and I used to break wishbones after dinner and whoever had the longest bone was to make a wish and then hide the bone in the dirt outside. Supposedly, the wish will come true. Well, one night after dinner, I broke the longest part of the bone and wished for a baby sister. I ran outside, dug a little hole for the bone, and wished again. I just knew the wishbone fairies would make my wish come true someday. And I didn't want a baby brother, only a sister. Well, a few months later my mom found out she was pregnant with a baby girl. I was convinced that the wishbone did the trick. I was so happy to find out that I was soon to be a big sister. I had no idea what that entailed, but I was certainly excited. 16 years later, I have a wonderful sister that I love very much. She is such a strong, beautiful young woman and I am very proud of how she has grown up. In just a year, she'll be graduating from high school. I can not believe that my little sister will be so old. I still remember her crawling around saying "da-da" and picking up bugs off the floor to eat. Her first word...was "ball." Haha. She is going to be a GREAT aunt, and I just know she'll spoil our baby so much. I love my little sister and I wish her a VERY happy birthday today! Sweet sixteen baby girl :)

These cravings are driving me crazy.

Today, I had a wonderful 1 hour nap...1 hour? Yes, it could have been longer if it wasn't for that durn cat who sits herself atop my dresser and meows over and over until I get up and tend to her needs. Is she trying to prepare me for motherhood? Maybe. This time she just needed her food bowl filled to the rim. Oh yes, she is very picky and needy and everything goes her way. After my nap, I had this STRONG urge for chick-fil-a. I couldn't control it. It just came out of no where. The nearest chick-fil-a is about a 10 minute drive to Cary...but, I drove anyway. After waiting in the drive through for about 10 minutes, I finally had my sandwhich. I had to suffer the 10 minute drive back home before I could dig in. I swear, these cravings are driving me up the wall. And there is absolutely nothing I can do to stop them other than eat what my body wants.

Last night, I had a similar craving at about 11:30 pm. I NEEDED, desperately, mcdonalds chicken nuggets. Seeing a theme here? I begged David to go get some chicken nuggets or I would never be able to get to sleep. Being the loving husband he is, he cheerfully drove out to mcdonalds around midnight for some chicken nuggets (and icecream, which wasn't on the list, but he enjoyed anyway).

I have had several cravings for meat in the past couple of weeks. One night I really wanted a big juicy hamburger, and I hadn't wanted a hamburger in atleast 4-5 weeks (ever since I started the morning sickness). Is there something wrong with me? Or is this totally normal? Oh did I mention my cravings for eggs...I must have eggs every morning for breakfast or I will scream out in rage. Maybe I am lacking protein? If anyone can provide me a simple explanation that would be amazing. If not, I will just blame it on "Weird things that happen to you while your pregnant."

One interesting day...

It is labor day 2010, but we definetly did not obey the rules. Labor day, as I was told, was meant to be a relaxing, stress free day full of suntans and hotdogs. However, our labor day this year was a little different. We spent 6.5 hours cleaning out closets and such. (Did I mention I am a little hungry after all that work?...Mcdonalds would be nice...thanks hubby). Ok, back to my story...excuse the preggo cravings. We started with our closet and drawers. I packed a lot of clothes to hand down to little sis. She will love them :). Then, we did some general house cleaning. After about 3 hours, we decided to tackle the big boy aka the "soon to be nursery" closet. Oh my, let me tell you, that was a beast. Just to give you some idea of how random that closet had become, here is a list of a few things we had to organzie and clean out/throw away: 7 fishing rods, 2 tubes of college notebooks and notes, 2 mini christmas trees, 8 blankets, a tackle box, a bazillion bank statements, lots of random sized pillows, 4 huge picture frames, a coffee table, a packed up wedding dress, 6 luggage bags, and much much more. Can you imagine all that stuff hidden away in a bedroom closet? Don't ask me how it all got there. Oh, did i mention we also found 2 patio chairs, a cooler, and lots of wedding stuff we had been missing. In addition, I came arcross an empty scrapbook someone had gotten me as a wedding present (yay for a future craft day!).

After many hours of sweat and blood (yes, blood...david got cut a few times on random objects), we finally have a closet for the baby. Well, not to kid you, a half of a closet. Arg. Yes, we still need the other half for things that wouldn't fit into the two other closets. Maybe this is telling us something...we NEED MORE ROOM.

Where, oh where?

This weekend, David and I will be celebrating the beginning of our 4th month of pregnancy...even though I am doing all the work :). Sometimes I wish it was him that went through weeks of vomiting. He'll get his share, no worries about that (hint, 3 am diaper changes...). However, WHERE oh WHERE is my 2nd trimester energy boost? After every book I have read and every article on pregnancy, everyone says at the start of my 2nd trimester I should feel 100% better and have tons of energy. Tons? I feel like I am going backwards. I felt like I had energy in the first trimester, it was just masked by trips to the sink. Now, I feel like a 3 hour nap is mandatory...everyday. Then, I am in the bed before 11 usually, which is very abnormal for me. So, can anyone tell me what the deal is with that?

Did I mention I have my OB apppointment September 28th for the ultrasound to tell if it is a boy or girl? OH YEAH...I probably have a billion times already. Hehe. So excited. I can not wait to actually go shopping for either pink or blue, because we all know that stores do not sell neutral (ugh). Seriously, every store I have gone into either has pink this and that or blue this and that. No whites or creams. Oh dear mother-in-law who made my amazingly beautiful wedding dress, my christmas wish is for you to make me a white hat, bootie, and blanket for the little one. K, thanks.
