Holy Heart Burn!

I love me some spicy food, to the point I will make my stomach go incomplete knots. Just for the yummy taste. With that said I have been warned by many mommas that you can get some serious heart burn while being pregnant.

Because I know everything… that could never happen to me. I have never had heart burn before and nothing is bothering me this far in my pregnancy.

So today I was feeling like some buffalo! Tropical Smoothie here I came. With my normal order in hand I was enjoying a very yummy buffalo chicken wrap with extra buffalo sauce on the side.

Thank the LORD I eat very small portions during the day! About 15 minutes after eating the first half of my wrap I thought I was dying!!! What is this horrible feeling. I called my hubby and he explained that I was having heart burn. OMWord how do people deal with this on a daily basis?!?!?! Then my so so sweet hubby tells me to look in my purse and take the Tums that he bought me a couple of weeks age, just in case I needed them. I think after 5 years of marriage he understands that I don’t really know it all.
So thanks to my handsome hubby I am feeling so much better. But I am now sad that I must say good bye to hot sauce. Please have a moment in silence I remember all the yummy times we had together!

16 Weeks!

How far along? 16 Weeks

Total weight gain: After losing 15 pounds in my first trimester and I have gained 2 pounds back.

Maternity clothes? Not yet. Let's just say things are starting to get tight. I just bought a bella band last week and I think I will be busting it out this week.

Stretch marks? none yet

Sleep: I can't get enough!

Best moment this week: Gable read in a book that the baby will be more comfortable with me cause they will know my voice. So he is now reading to my belly every night so the baby can hear him speak. It is the sweetest funniest thing to see.

Miss Anything? I Seared Tuna. It is by far my favorite thing to eat it is so hard not to have any. But I will do anything to protect my little blessing.

Movement: Not yet

Food cravings: Half sours (I think it is the vinegar in them), shrimp and fruit

Anything making you queasy or sick: Meat being cooked. I can eat it if I am at a restaurant but can’t make it at home.

Gender: No idea. One more week till we find out. I originally thought Baby G is a girl, but now I am not too sure.

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: overall feeling pretty great, but if I don’t eat every two hours I start getting nauseas

Belly Button in or out? in

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or Moody most of the time: Very Happy, and I have a calmness going on to.

Looking forward to: Next Saturday we find out what Baby G is at the Gender Reveal Party we are hosting for our family. I am also looking forward to registering.

Loving and Not Loving...

I am loving that we are in week 16 of our pregnancy.
I am not loving that we have zero pictures of the belly. We are always forgetting about it.

I am loving that I have started packing for us, so my baby sis can move into our place.
I am not loving that the house we put an offer on is now going to the highest bidder. Please pray that we know what to bid, and that the Lord gives us guidance.

I am loving that we are almost done with the decorations for the gender reveal party. Just about all of our family will be there to see what Baby G is.
I am not loving that Gable’s oldest sister’s family won’t be able to make it for the party, looks like we are going to have to Skype them.

I am loving everything the Lord has blessed us with. I am so thankful for our family, friends, and baby g.
I am not loving the hard time I am having to put faith in the uncertainty of us not having a house by the time Baby G arrives. But I must put that behind me and have faith that he will provide!

I am loving that my best friend’s wedding is less than a month away! And my dress has finally come in.
I am not loving how this is fitting me. I ordered a dress 2 sizes too big to fit about my belly. My belly fits perfectly, but the top is a hot mess, I feel sorry for my seamstress!!!

I am loving how quickly the day is going.
I am not loving being behind in my schedule for work!

Vote!

Today is voting day!!!!

Hair Cut Time

I can't believe I am going to admit this out loud, but i have not gone to get my hair cut in over a year. I would forget to make an appointment, not have enough allowance to get it done. But thanks to my wonderful momma it is getting cut on Saturday.

For the past 6 months i have curled my hair everyday to hide the dead ends. Momma called me a classy hillbilly and couldn't have a daughter of hers walk around with split ends.

Now how do i want it cut... I could not think of any stars hair that i really liked. Then on My Style last night a new show aired called Meet the Amandas. Jackpot! I am in love with Amanda's hair style. I will make mine a little longer then hers but basically the same idea. I am so hoping that it will turn out good.

What do y'all think? Can I pull it off?

What I'm loving Wednesdays!

Happy Wednesday everybody. This week has been fun/ not so fun week for me. The fun part is Gable is finally home from all of his work trips!!! I am so excited to be waking up next to him, watching our shows together and just seeing his handsome face every night he comes home from work. The not so fun part is he came home sick... and got me sick. The even worse part is my midwife wont give me anything to take. So I stayed home the past two days and slept! Today I am starting to feel like myself again. You just got to love flu and cold season.

This weekend I made organic applesauce (heaven). It is so delicious.

I have also started getting the decoration together for the Gender Reveal Party. We have our appointment on Feb 9th, and want to tell both of our families at the same time. So that Saturday we are having a dinner at my parents house and then revealing what Baby G is! Gable and I both think Baby G is a girl, but if we are blessed with a boy instead we will still be more then excited!!!

I have been looking at things that we need to register for. We know that Babies r Us will be the main place we register and then the bedding will be from Pottery Barn Kids. This first time momma could use some help! What are some things that you really recommend to be put on the registry, and what are some items that I shouldn't even register for.

The last thing that I am really loving this Wednesday is we have signed up for our Bradley classes. I can't wait! Sadly Gable will be out of town for some of them, but my momma will be at those classes.

What I'm Loving Wednesday

It has been way to long since the last time I have blogged. There is a ton to be caught up on and I am hoping I can do that this weekend. But for now I pray that everyone is having a wonderful week!

I am loving that Gable and I have had our prayers answered and are expecting!!! I am 14 weeks pregnant with Baby G!

I am loving that my niece wrote this in her journal for the day….
“My Auntie Amy is having a Baby”
Then she made half the page pink and the other blue, cause we don’t know what Baby G is.

I am loving that my best friend’s wedding is now less than two months away!

I am loving that I will see the hubby Friday! It has been way to long since I have cuddled with him.

I am loving that my cousin made the UF’s 2012 Baseball Team!!! Go Todd!!!

I hope everyone enjoyed my loves for the day!!!
