New favorite thing

Tuesday, August 10, 2010

So here's my new favorite thing:
Have you ever seen "Minute to Win It"
It's super awesome. It's just a show where people do ridiculous things for money.
The tasks are intense and you are almost shocked every time someone wins.
But it's not just watching it, it's watching with my 4 year old :)
He must add commentary:
"oh my gosh"
"look how hard this is mommy!"
"oh that's "possible" (which means impossible)
It's adorable, I mean seriously.
He even tries to re-create the show with his toys.
And shows me what they should have done ( because he totally knows best)

What's your favorite thing to do right now?

My posts have been few and far between lately.
It's not because I don't have things to talk about, it's just because I have been feeling horrible.
It's been crazy around here, trying to get all the stuff for hubs recruiting packet.
Getting the kids put into cys ( finally)
and now to top it all off:

A very unexpected, but very welcomed surprise,

I'm 9 & 1/2 weeks pregnant
(give or take a few days).

Yes we are surprised to say the least.
But we are also VERY excited.
I have been laying around the house like a pile of death.
I had super quick morning sickness with Big A, I puked in the morning and then felt great the rest of the day.
With Little A I was pretty nauseous, but I rarely puked. I just was in pain from an enlarged cyst on my ovary.
But with number 3- I am soooo soooo sick. I puke all day and am lucky if I can keep anything I eat down. Saltines honestly make it worse, they just gross me out.
Ginger Ale is okay, but I just feel terrible not drinking water.
I have had a ton of cramping and that's just not fun.

So I'm very tired.
I'm praying this ends with the 1st trimester.

And now you know why I am gone so often lately, if it takes pretty much any effort, I'm just not doing it right now.
But once I'm feeling better I'll tell you all every single detail :)

oh p.s. we still haven't filled in aunts and uncles so if you keep keep this on the dl if you know me on facebook, I would really appreciate it!

Well Miss Abigail Mae was born last night at 2:21 am. She weighed 6 lbs 11 oz and 19 1/2 inches long. Mommy and baby are doing great! Thanks for your prayers and sweet wishes.

So here is what's going on in the O household:
My hubby is getting ready to put in his recruiting packet. We are really praying for him to get a school date in early October.
We have decided against school this semester for big A. If everything works out we will be moving before Christmas and then we will put big A into a mom's day out program.
I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but I really hope it works out.

We are putting the kiddos into swim lessons for then end of August/ beginning of September and I am going to put both of them into tumbling class which I think is going to be awesome for them.

So here comes August full on!

I'm going to be an Auntie

Our niece is being delivered via induced c-section today ( at some point). My husbands sister-in-law, has an enlarged spleen. Very enlarged. So they are having to take the baby 4 weeks early because after blood tests galore, they think the reason for the enlargement could be cancer. So if you could please keep her in your prayers today.
That's it for today!
