Chocolate!!!

This baby apparently loves chocolate!! Every time I eat a candy bar or some dessert with chocolate (Which isn't too often, so maybe that's why...) the baby immediately starts moving all around... Like within 2-3 minutes of me taking the first bite! lol It's so funny! My own two never responded to any food like that! I just had a Heath bar about 20 minutes ago and the baby has been dancing all around! Ha ha! 

Can't think of a title... Ha ha

You know it's weird... I knew going into this exactly what I was doing and  how it could possibly affect me. I thought though, that I might still have SOME small feelings of attachment towards the baby once I started feeling her/him moving around. I can honestly say though, that even after about 2 months of feeling little flutters to all out kicks, I really don't feel attached! I'm just so happy to do this for them and I have two beautiful children already, so I really think that helps so much! Also the fact the the baby isn't even mine! (That's still so weird to say... Ha ha!) 
I know that once the baby is born, it still might be a little sad to watch the baby get on a plane and fly away, but I know that I'll be OK! Beth and Mike are such awesome people, and I can not wait for them to have their baby and start their little family! I'm so, so happy for them!!! :-D 

We had the Ultrasound!

So Beth and Mike flew over for the Ultrasound! Everything looked great! The Dr. said the baby looks perfect and is measuring right on time!! Such awesome news!! 


This little baby is such a wiggle worm, like my son was! I feel... (I'm just going to say Baby, only because I hate saying "It" lol) I feel baby moving around several times a day! 


The only thing that sucks is the heartburn... I have to take a Zantac every day (I'm so sick of Tums, so I switched to Zantac after asking the Dr.) Other than that and being more tired, I have no other pregnancy symptoms! Just like with my other two... I guess I just have very easy pregnancies! 
I can't believe I'm already 22 weeks along! It's going by so fast! I can not wait for Beth and Mike to be able their sweet little baby!! 
They're going to come back over in November again, I can't wait to see them! They might be here for Thanksgiving! I told them they should definitely try to come then so they can have Thanksgiving dinner with us, since they don't celebrate it at home in Ireland. 


We just got back from a very much needed vacation! We went to Florida...we drove down. It actually went pretty great! The kids did awesome in the car and only got fussy a few times, and we just put a DVD on for them and they were fine! We had to stop a lot so I could get out and move around, and of course the littles needed to get out. I thought I'd be needing to stop every 1/2 hour to pee, but it wasn't bad at all! I think my hubbie needed more stops than I did! Ha ha! 
We ended up renting a wheelchair for me for one of the days at the parks... It was just so hot and I was so tired and achy from the 2 days before, so Geoff got to push my fat butt around all day! Other than that everything went great and I felt great! We all had so much fun and get to spend lots of family time together! It was awesome! 


Oh and BTW the sex of the baby is a secret! So sorry, but no one will know until Baby is born! :-D

Little Wiggle Worm!

So I've definitely been feeling some movement! I can feel this lil bean moving around several times a day now! 


I can't wait to see Beth and Mike again! Just about 2 weeks and they'll be here for the weekend again! Then me and my little family are off to Florida! We haven't had a vacation in like 5 years, so we're pretty freaking excited! 


I guess that's it! Just a quick post today! :-D 

Dr. Appointment and other things!

So I had another appointment last Friday. Everything looks great! The baby was moving around so much that we could only hear the heartbeat for a few seconds. She'd get the HB, then the lil wiggle worm would move away! When s/he was sitting still though we heard a good strong heartbeat! 


OK so I got to have a mini panic attack yesterday! The Dr.s office called and told me that there was no U/S tech in on the day (Sept. 3rd) we scheduled the appointment. I was just about to start screaming into the phone, when the lady said... "Now I know you have people flying in for it, and it needs to be done that day." I said "Yes it does! The parents are coming in the night before, and then the day after the appointment we're leaving for our vacation!" So she told me she'd work on it and get back to me ASAP. 
So about 20 minutes later she called back and says it's all set, it's just going to be at the hospital instead. Which works out anyway, because we wanted to tour the hospital while Beth and Mike were here and I obviously want to know where it is before I go into labor! Ha ha! 


So there was the tiny little drama! I'm glad they took care of it so quickly... I just don't understand why they didn't know when I first made the appointment that no one would be in!  

No use crying over BK....

**OK little side note...
We're adding on to the house and we just bought a tub, toilet, and sink so we're like broke this week...**


So there's not much to eat in the house right now... Well there's stuff, just nothing I want. I was going to have a meatball sandwich, (we had spaghetti and meatballs last night) but we ran out of bread. So anyway Hubbie texted me and said "Hey stopping at BK for lunch... What did you do for lunch?" (He drives the delivery truck, and must of gotten a tip or something and I thought he was in the area) So I texted right back.. "Yay! Whopper with bacon, cheese and extra pickles and a small fry!" 
I was so exited! I normally don't like fast food, but I really wanted a cheeseburger right now!


Then I get his text back... "Hunnie.. That's not what I meant... Sorry! I'm going to BK for lunch, what are you doing? Love you... Order something if you want! " Then I went back and re-read his text... I literally almost burst into tears.... (doesn't help that my daycare kids have been nuts today...) I'm still sitting here all mopey and sad about it... 


Aww my first pregnancy spazz.... Someone want to bring me a cheeseburger?? Ha ha! 

Yay for new clothes that fit!

So I got my check for Maternity clothes! I had a few shirts and pants but I couldn't find the bin that I put them in anywhere! So I bought a few surrogacy shirts and had I had one made for each of my littles!

I wish I thought of the fact that I'd see the belly band through the shirt before I got a bunch of light pink and white shirts... lol (I think I might go back and swap a pair of pants for ones I saw with the beige colored band, because that won't show through!) 


I have another appointment on Friday! This driving to Mass for 10-15 minute appointments is getting old... lol I wish my OB wanted to work with the one in Mass so I could have some appointments here. I have to schedule them for when Geoff has a day off 
so he can go with me. I hate driving into Mass by myself, especially 45 minutes away! Ha ha! 


Well that's it for now! I'll update after my appointment! 


Oh and of course AFTER I bought new clothes I found my old ones!
