  •  I cant sleep...I've been awake for a while now. But I enjoy this time of quiet. Jake is working a little later so he gets to sleep in until 745 today. But since we will both be awake (and Jeremiah too) we can all have breakfast together.

    I went to the Dr yesterday. I'm 5 weeks, which is really early still. So I have to wait 2 weeks before my next appointment. The next one will be long so I have to get a babysitter. It's bloodwork, case worker, nutritionist, and my first exam to make sure everything is going normal. Then i get to schedule my first ultrasound appointment! Thats really cool. Last time I opted out of the first one (because it was explained to me as testing to see if the baby had any problems...and most ppl terminate if they find out theres something wrong. I decided that if anything was wrong I would keep it so it didnt matter if I knew....but what I didnt know was that it was an actual ultrasound. Which meant I didnt have one until 22 weeks- a little more than half way through my pregnancy. By the time I got it I was so anxious to make sure everything was ok with him. So this time I'm having that ultrasound!) And after that I start on my regular checkups.

    It seems so much more exciting now that it's official.

    Tomorrow night we are having our usual dinner with Hilary...which means after that I can be as open as I want. I was really hoping she would know by the weekend because I wanted to talk about it to ppl at church on Sunday but I really wanted her to find out first.

    ooh boy Jeremiah just woke up. I better get him.

  • I can't hold it in anymore!!!!


    I'm pregnant!!!!!!  It was such a shocker! I only took the text because I was late. I still have no symptoms of pregnancy. I don't feel any different. I think it may be a little early still. Sometime the end of week 5 or 6 is when the nausea and everything else kicks in.  I'm about 5 weeks (which I'm still unsure of why they start the count at the first day of your last period...idk?). I'll call and make my first apt today and go from there.

    I really cant believe I'm having another baby. We were thinking it was going to take a really long time. Last month was the first month that we did research to figure out my ovulation schedule...and ta da! Apparently that was very helpful.

    We haven't told everyone yet so I cant announce it publicly. Xanga doesnt count on being public  But I was dying keeping it in! Basically my grandma, 2 of my brothers, and hilary are the only immediate family who doesn't know...My sister in law Jenny, my dad, jakes dad, ro, the kids, grandma and grandpa all found out yesterday. I told my Mom friday. And I told my friend Brittany yesterday. Thats it. But it was fun this time around telling people. Everyone is genuinly happy for us. I don't have all those negative feelings I did last time. I'm really excited and can't wait for everyone to know.

    Jeremiah is going to be a big brother! Thats scary. We are going to have to teach him it will not be ok for him to jump on and try to wrestle with the new baby. I can totally see him doing that. Its a little overwhelming thinking about having two. But its so much more exciting than anything else!

    I figure by the end of the week I'll be posting it on facebook for everyone to read!

    We are so happy!

    more to come as we find things out...

  • I thought I felt like writing but now that I am on xanga I no longer want to write. Maybe I'll go take advantage of this nap time instead of using it to be on the computer.

  • I didn't sleep well last night. I was wide awake. Around 4 I was up and then 5 I started to clean (since I didn't yesterday..haha!) I was so tired that by 7 I was asleep again. Yay to Jeremiah sleeping in again. I love that he goes to bed later and wakes up later. I got up and heading to target and then to stop and shop. Got home and played for a while with Jeremiah, and got him down for a nap. Now I'm ready for one =)

    Sarahs party is from 2-5. And then tonight 7? is a concert at church which we are going to try to get to. Good day even though I feel like shit and am exhausted.

    hmmm maybe tomorrow I'll only go to the 10-11 worship service and leave Jeremiah in the nurery ...and go home to nap! Jake can pick up Jeremiah. Sounds good to me.

About Me

  • My name is Amanda. I am 23 years old. I am a new mommy and I love it. My son Jeremiah was born on 9-18-08, only one day before his expected due date. It was a very long and pain labor/delivery but i am glad to have gone through it because now I have a perfect baby boy. I am a new wife. I got married on July 11, 2008. I have been with Jake since my senior prom in 2003...so thats 5 1/2 years now. I'm glad we got married when we did (7 months pregnant) but I will also be glad when we have a bigger ceremony/reception with all our friends and family. I believe in God and go to a non denominational church where I have served faithfully as a sunday school teacher for about 8 years. So as you can imagine, finding out I was pregnant was a shock and a bit difficult to deal with at first. But everyone in my church showed us a lot of mercy and love. They never stopped supporting us, loving us, and helping us. I also am working on becoming a teacher. I'm taking a break but will be back soon!
