Moses Lake

So, I am now a Moses Laker! The move went pretty good. Januari was able to help me. In fact she actually did most of my kitchen packing...well actually all of it. I had a much easier time cleaning. The packing was causing too much stress for me. So, having her help out was really a blessing. I probably would have had a breakdown without her. I've noticed since I've been pregnant I have a much harder time paying attention to things...and my attention span is about 90 seconds...or less. She kept sending me back to the same project because I would wander and find something else I'd rather do. Our bed is still in the van outside because we didn't get home until about 11 on Sunday night and when Kenny gets home from work it's already dark. So, hopefully this weekend he will bring it in because I am getting tired of sleeping in a smaller bed.
My cat turned into Devil 1000 on Monday. He started "spraying" in my parents house. Well, actually originally on Kenny's leg and then all over the place. So, Tuesday morning I called the Vet and asked when I could get in to get his goods chopped. They said the soonest was Wednesday morning. So, as of yesterday morning Willy is a little less man. He already seems calmer. I haven't caught him doing anything naughty yet. They said there's a really good chance he is cured of the spraying problem but if he's not there is "kitty prozac". So, that's good to know. But, so far so good. We'll see. I love my kitty!!!
Monday morning I went in to Dairy Queen and talked to the owner, Tom and asked him if they could use me for like 15 or 20 hours a week. He didn't know for sure but said probably they could use me. So, Monday evening his wife called me and said heck yah we'll take you. So, I started yesterday back in kitchen. I worked at DQ all through high school up until I moved to Marysville in '04. So, I caught back on pretty quick. A lot of the menu has changed and that will take me a while to learn but for the most part it all came back to me. So, I am excited to be able to get out of the house for a while. I was afraid I was going to go crazy not working. But, this job is so easy and stress free and a little of extra money is always nice.
I am a heifer...and that is why I haven't posted a new pic. I will sometime in the next few days.

By the Way

Hi, I'm Earth, have we met? I totally forgot to update about my Dr appt. It went well. Not a lot to report...just everything is great and going perfectly as planned. Dr did change my due date. So I am offically due May 1st instead of previously thought April 26th. This is fine because I want a May baby anyway. I am hoping for like May 9th. I like the number 9. So, that is about the most exciting thing going on there. Now...that is all.

2+2=FISH

So, this was a very high anxiety weekend. I think the stress of moving is definitely starting to show up. Kenny came to visit and brought along my little brother, Zachary...that was fine. Then Januari decided to visit with her to kids, Juliane and Jay...that was also fine. I think it was the combination of the two that just did it over for me. I had to move the cat litter box to make a bed for people to sleep which caused Willy (my kitty) to be very confused and peed on the floor where his litter box had previously been. I had shown him where I moved it...but there was just too much excitement for him probably. I mean, his home went from one to six humans in a matter of hours and most of them were kids which he is not used to. So, I was so upset about that. I know it's not his fault...but I need someone to blame. It was a time that I wished I had a really big house without strangers living on all sides and below. I love having company and I always want to be a perfect hostess and it is hard when your resources are limited. So, anyway it was a tough weekend but it is over and my apartment is silent now. *SIGH* So, now I have 6 days of work and packing and cleaning ahead of me. I hope I can get everything done. I feel like I can if I just don't get distracted. I am easily distracted so even though I have good intentions, I don't always get everything done I wish to.
Baby has been moving a lot the last few days. She was very active on Thursday and I was really hoping while Kenny was here he would be able to feel her or see her bumping around but she must have been intimidated by his deep voice because she was very chill all weekend. Of course, now he is gone and she is bumpin around again. Well, in less than a week we will be together again and hopefully never to be separated again...at least not for such long periods of time. Plan is, Kenny works Saturday until noon and then will come here to Marysville (with Januari) and start moving stuff to his parents storage shop. That's where we will keep everything until we get our own place. Hopefully by Sunday afternoon or night we will be be all done and on our way home to Moses Lake. I won't be doing a lot of the actual "moving" so I am hoping to have everything packed and mostly clean. I borrowed a carpet cleaner from my in-laws so I can get that done this week too so we don't have to pay for it to be done professionally. So, everyone wish me luck and low stress in getting everything accomplished before Saturday! So far I only have one box packed...EEK! :)

24 weeks

YEAH! Here is a picture of me. I can't hardly believe it's actually happening! I don't know why but I feel like it takes too much effort to post pics for me. Maybe I am making up for when I have kids...I'm going to post like 40 pictures a day...so this is the calm before the storm.
Not too much is new, I took this pic yesterday. I am going to try to remember to get a picture every week from now until birth. I have a Dr. appt this week on Thursday so hopefully I will have an update after that. It's been almost 9 weeks since my last appointment because of the stupid weather. It's been such bad weather and my doctors office was closed on the day of my last appointment. So, hopefully this time it will go okay.
My last day at Frontier Bank is January 16th. I will be moving to Moses Lake that same weekend. I am so excited to be back together with Kenny everyday. I miss him so much. I am sad to leave my job..I mean I say I hate it...and I mostly do, BUT there are so many people that I work with that are such great people. It will be hard to say goodbye. I'll probably be bawling all day long on my last day. So, anyway...I am still looking for a job in ML but I am starting to face the fact that I might not find anything until after baby is born. I just wish I could find a job some where that I really love...but if that doesn't happen I might try to just stay home with baby and try to find one or two other kids to watch to make a little extra money. I would love to do that. But for now we will be staying with my Mom and Dad...so anyway, we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
