Well hello friends! Today like my title says is a cloudy day. No rain yet, but I have a feeling its coming. I'm not a fan of rainy days. I like the sun to be shining, flowers blooming, birds chirping. :) The simple pleasures of life. This week has just started but already is off to a hectic start. I heard from Jake on Sunday night. He was able to call for the last time. He said they might have a phone where he is headed but probably will only be able to get phone calls out once every two weeks or so.
Yesterday I spent the day with Stephanie. I got to go with her to her appointment for her baby. She is due a week before me. It was cool to see just the difference between the one week. When I went in for my ultra sound the baby was just laying there all peaceful. That was not the case for Stephanie. :) Her baby was doing karate in her belly. It was cute! I also got to hear her baby's heartbeat. It was a wonderful experience. I was holding her little boy and when he heard the heartbeat he started crying. :( I don't know if it is because he is used to being the baby, and now there is another one on the way, or if he was crying because it looked like the nurse was hurting his mommy's belly. After we left the doctor's office we went to the mall to check on getting some ginger candies to help with the morning sickness. After leaving the mall with no success, we ended up going to four more stores to find out that no one had them. :( We did find out that we can drive about an hour away to Wilmington, and there are some stores there that sell them. We were planning on going today, but it has been postponed to tomorrow.
Last night I got home from Stephanie's and actually had energy, so I grabbed the vacuum and cleaning supplies and started cleaning the downstairs. I got all that I wanted to done in just an hour, vacuuming and all. I was pretty happy...until I went to bed. I tossed and turned and got nauscious the whole night. :( I had to get up and take a bath, and go back to bed. I just kept praying that it would go away, and good news... it did by the time I woke up. Now I'm just tired from not really sleeping last night. Maybe Khloe and I will go take us a much needed nap! :)
I hope ya'll have a wonderful day, and enjoy the blessings that God has for you.
Love, Anna
