Update and My Birthday!

So baby is doing alright right now. We took her to the ER on Sunday because she was SCREAMING almost all day Saturday and most of Sunday because she couldn't poop :( I just couldn't take it anymore and needed a peace of mind that it was nothing more serious. So we took her and she is ok. They recommended giving her apple juice and we also switched her formula back to the Similac fussiness and gas one, we had moved her to soy but they said that makes the stool hard. She just hasn't been herself the last few days though so that's sad to see. She is getting big though- she was 9.9 lbs when we were there on Sunday. Perfect for 9 weeks lol! She has outgrown most of her newborn stuff, she still kind of fits in it though. So she is mostly in that stuff still. I need to wash her 0-3 clothes. I don't know if I have a lot of those though - more of it is 3-6 months. I guess I just need to looks through it all again and see what we have! Sis smiling a lot more! She likes to look at things now so we have her bug that plays music on her car seat. We also are going to start putting her in her crib more when she is home so she can see her mobile. She is still sleeping in her bouncer or her boppy. Mostly in her bouncer at night by the bed right now - we need to start moving her to her crib though. I need to get the monitors set up though before we do that. We will still put her in the boppy in the crib to keep her upright so she doesn't have acid reflux problems.

Her baptism is on Sunday! We can't wait. Our friends Melanie and Brian, Kyle and Liz, my parents, my sister and her husband, Ben's mom and grandpa are who we know for sure will be there right now. There may be a few more but we aren't for sure yet. We are going to go out to breakfast afterwards as well.

My goddaughters 3rd birthday party is Sunday at 1 pm. I can't believe she is 3 already! So that is about all our plans for the weekend. Friday and Saturday I'm going to try to get her scrapbook done but we will see if I can. As long as I get some of it done I will be happy. I'm through her birth right now but I still have to do all the pictures from the hospital.

My birthday was this past Saturday. It was kind of a rough day though because like I said the baby was screaming and upset most of the day. I did go to lunch with my mom though at Swensons and then we went shopping at a few places and got the baby a dress for her baptism on Sunday. My mom got me a gift card to Wasabi (where we went for dinner Sat night), gift card to Kmart, and gift card to Archivers to get scrapbooking stuff. My sister got me a wall plugin from Yankee Candle and cash to go to another scrapbook store near my house. I'm very excited! I want to do a really good job on her scrapbook so I want to be sure I can get as much stuff as possible. Then Saturday night we left the baby at my parents and we went out to dinner wiht my sister and her husband, Melanie, Brian, Liz and Kyle. It was a pretty good time. No one was too happy about their bills though - it adds up so quick and they charged us the gratuity fee! After dinner me, Ben, Amy and Matt went to Muskateers for some drinks. It was a good time - we all got pretty drunk! I tried to count it but I'm not sure I got them all...I had at least 3 drinks and 9 shots at the bar alone. I did have 2 drinks at dinner too. So I was pretty wasted but it was a really good time. Except my camera got broken :*( Hopefully I can get kodak to fix it without it costing me anything. We got home around 2 am. I didn't get to sleep much though because my mom had to be at work at 6 am and so I had to get up with the baby. So I was pretty cranky on Sunday but I wasn't sick at all!

Again, you will need to see my facebook for all my pictures. I just takes too long to upload them on here...I might do a few in a minute though!

I think that's all for now! More updates after her baptism Sunday :)

My 24th Birthday

Well my birthday this year was probably better then my more recent birthdays. I did go to work on birthday. Sam at work made me a cake which was sooo delicious! We also went to lunch at Metro Burger in Highland Square. It was a good time. Then I came home and got ready because we had reservations for dinner at 8 pm at Wasabi, which is in Montrose on the hill. I love that place! We had to wait a bit though becuase Rob and Rachelle weren't there yet but then they ended up not eating! We had a great time at Wasabi. They sang happy birthday to me during the flaming onion thing and then again at the end of the night with a cool desert that had a sparkler in it. After that we went back to Mel and Brian's and they had gotten me a cake too! It was good - it was from Reeve's which is right by their house. I was kind of mad though becuase I wanted everyone to come back to our house and I spent all week clenaing for it! We weren't at their house long and it seemed like I was the only one drinking and I got pretty buzzed. It was a great birthday though and I love my friends for making it so special. As far as gifts - Mel got me a bunch of things, Rachelle got me a party lite candle sampler pack with 3 tea light holders. My mom got me a tanning pass becuase thats what I asked for. And Ben's Aunt Cathie got me a gift card for Macy's. Which was much needed becuase of my weight loss so I got a shirt, a pair of pants and a pair of shorts for hopefully next summer!

Cake from the people at work - YUM!

How time flys!

Wow I can't believe it's been almost a month sinceI wrote on here...so many things have been going on!

Work is still insane. I'm working on my days off usually right now but the overtime is nice so I don't mind. Plus it's less of a mess that I come in to the next day.

My birthday was Sept 11, I will probably do another post about this. It was a great night and all of our friends were there! I was happy to have everyone around :) I will do another post with details and pictures!

Sept 12 my cousin Ryan got married to Kelly. That will probably be another post as well. It was a good wedding - but more on that later as well!

On Sept 18th we celebrated Liz's birthday. Probably another post also, or I will put it with my birthday post. They went to dinner but we didn't go because we don't have the money right now. Then it was an interesting night but it was a good time!

I've been going to all of Mel's appointments with her. She just had one this past Monday (I forgot to take a picture of her but I think I will get one tonight!). She was 12 weeks on Tuesday I believe. She is doing better, not as sick but feeling very tired.

My mother in law will be here in about 4 or 5 weeks to stay with us. Her boyfriend will go back to Arizona and stay at the house there until it is sold. The only thing I am not happy about is her dog coming. I don't need another dog in this house, it's already bad enough. Plus she is a small dog so I'm afraid mine will trample her. We will see how she does with Duke. He doesn't do well with other dogs that he doesn't know. So we will see! I will be grateful for the help his mom will provide financially though. That will be a nice break! Plus she likes to cook and clean so that will help out also.

Work has been crazy and hasn't slowed down at all. I really think it's getting worse, which I expected but it's just insane. Plus it's the time of year when people are out sick so I'm constantly worrying about getting sick!

As far as my weight loss, I'm down about 22 lbs from where I started. But from my highest it's around 27 lbs. It sucks though becuase most of my clothes don't fit, well my pants for work at least, and we really don't have the money to buy any more. Maybe one day...

Other then that, not much else has been going on. I come home, make dinner, and go to sleep most nights. On the weekends I clean and do laundry. Not much time for anything else at this point!!

I will try to keep this thing better updated, at least for myself because I don't think anyone really reads this. I want to keep track of things better though so I will try!
