oh wow has it been awhile! last post was in december so it has been what, 6 months? and let me tell you alot has happened in 6 months. well first off, christmas was very nice. yet very hectic. we had 3 different christmas' to attend. mike got me a very cute necklace and these boots that i have been dying to get. mike got a gas powered remote controlled car. (which he has only used twice lol).
the next best thing happened in february. mike and i found out we are expecting alittle girl. we are naming her taryn rae burch. i seriously cant wait! mike was very disappointed lol, he wanted a boy so bad. but you know i think he is even more excited its a girl. he is going to be so protective of her and she'll have him wrapped around her little finger. i cant wait to see him interact with our daughter.
april finally rolls by and ruger is finally a year old! and let me tell you he is getting so much better! still gets in his go-kart moods but over all he can finally lay in the room and just chew his bone. he even listens to me now. its amazing that he is becoming a normal dog. yet still the size of a miniature horse but thinks he is a lap dog. i think that it helped that mike didnt work from february to may though.
those few months were the most stressful situation we have been in. being pregnant and trying to buy stuff for the baby, feed the dog, and pay bills when their is no income coming in is so hard! thank god he got his job back, not that we like that place or the time he is away, but at least it pays the bills and more. so currently he is back on the road. :(
this pregnancy has been a roller coaster! the beginning was smooth. no morning sickness, felt fine, blah blah blah. although, heartburn start to sink in and it wont leave, i feel like im breathing fire everyday all day! im always tired and so sore. i feel like my body is falling apart and like im 80 years old LOL. then i went in to one appointment and my blood sugars were alittle elevated so then i had to start testing my blood sugars 4 times a day. yet my morning blood sugars were just alittle too high for my doctors likings so then i have to take insulin at night. ugh. and now my blood pressure is elevated! one thing after another. so currently my blood pressure is still high and my sugars are under control but i have non-stress tests twice a week. they are interesting but boring. i just lay there and listen to taryn's heart beat. but now i am 35 weeks and 4 days and im measuring 39/40 weeks from my pubic bone to the fundus. which means now i have to go in for another ultrasound to measure taryn's bones and head to see how big she is. if she is getting too big i might have to have a c-section soon so she doesnt get any bigger :( i really hope she is just long cause i want to push her out, i want to feel labor pains. i mean i hope my doctor would decide to induce me and let me try labor and if i dont progress then take her out by c-section.
anyways, this saturday i'll be 36 weeks and im having a baby shower! im so excited. having a baby is so much fun and exciting, yet so nerve racking too! its finally the end of the pregnancy and i am officially done! i want to see what she looks like, if she looks like me or mike, i want to hold her, i want to love on her, and i want to see what her personality is like.
there is the update on our life! enjoy everyone :)
:) I can't wait to meet her! and babysit! :)
