pink everywhere!!

is it too much to ask for there to be any other color than pink to represent womanhood...... for me i really like red..... but there isnt really anything related to baby girls that is red except christmas stuff..... and i dont want to wrap my child in a big bow!
im not a big fan of buying what is "popular" ... i like to buy what i like... but what happens when you cant find what you like anywhere... except for in your head..... i dont want my baby to be forced to look like every other Target baby around.... i want her to be her own person and not a clone of what she is supposed to supposedly be like.  i guess id better tattoo the bullseye logo onto her right now. the ironic thing is ....... we registered there!

furthermore, why is it that everytime that i really like something, it gets discontinued!! someone gave me this lotion a few years ago, and im not big on lotion, but it is the best scent ever! and then i went to find it again and they discontinued it! then the other day i was going to buy a smartwater... and my favorite kind, cranberry grapefruit was discontinued....... how bizarre.... i find it impossible to like what i like because apparantly no one else likes and the majority outvotes it and would rather have "ROCKSTAR" or something....... speaking of ROCKSTAR .. that absurd billboard is still up on I-84!!! doesnt anyone have a paintball gun!

but dont let this make you confused into thinking that i am constantly in a frenzy over these issues....... i just get on a roll at night sometimes when i am chatting with my husband.

maybe ill just start my own line of clothing and lotions and waters and whatever i want.... that seems to be the only solution(=

for better or for worse

my job is much better now. i was going crazy for a while there and i really didnt see any light at the end of the tunnel..... but i am very thankful that God decided to help me out here(= i really couldnt handle another breakdown....i really dont have a choice either. i have to stay there until the other girl comes back from maternity leave... there is no way around it! so i have to make the best of it... and  ya actually yesterday i was LOOKING FORWARD to going to work.... now that is a first!!!

i had four days off this week and i had no problem waking up at 6 when justin had to get up, but then when i actually have to work that day... my body is so mad at me and its extremely hard to roll out of bed..... how bizarre... and i sleep so much better when i dont work the next day! like my mind is already stressed out even though i havent even gotten to work yet.

all in all, life is better because my job doesnt make me as crazy!

putting on the pounds

so i never thought i would ever be excited about gaining weight, but i am. i went to the doctor the other day and got on the scale and it said 6 more pounds than last month! i was excited because i dont look very big for being 6 months pregnant, but the baby is just fine. i must be carrying it all inside or something. ive gained altogether 10 lbs, which is just fine the doctor says. i just need to make sure and eat at least 75 grams of protein a day... but closer to 100 would be best! that is a lot... i better get scarfing!
there is a picture on the us blog of me yesterday. and just so you know, we have an US blog.... stuff me and justin do together goes on that one... we got a camera so there should be lots more pictures up this month too.

The waiting is over...

Well, the day finally came. We got a new camera. It's not a small as the old one, but this one takes much much better pictures. So to celebrate we went out and carved a pumpkin with our friends, Brad and Jenny. Jenny is also pregnant as you can undoubtedly tell from the picture below. She is having a boy. She is due two days after Jacquelyn. This may be surprising considering how much bigger she is.

nothing too exciting

so there hasnt been much to say for the past few weeks....
well i suppose i had to go to the hospital last weekend... that was kinda exciting. well maybe not exciting... how bout TERRIFYING!!! well i guess everything was fine. the doctor said the tests came back fine, no sign of anything weird,... so i looked at her and said "well then what is wrong with me"!!!??? you are a doctor you should know everything(= i should probaly tell you what i was feeling.... a lot of pain basically.... sure i assumed there would be some growing pains wtih this pregnancy... i mean i am stretching into a watermelon really. but the pain was severe adn i just could moan and lay on the floor. it seemed to feel better when i did that. so 3 hours later at the hospital they told me to go home and sleep on it.... by the next night i felt a lot better... the the next day it was back.... off an on for a few days.... im convinced it is some severe stretching going on in there.. im growing out of my only two pairs of pants)=

other than that.... i am still working at the accounting job. as soon as the other girl goes into labor it should only be 5 more weeks. i am looking forward to being done. it has been nice to make some money though and be able to buy things like new glasses and new shoes(= i have had my glasses for like 5 years....

the only other thing to say really is that justin is the most wonderful husband ever! ... and no you cant have him(= get your own!
