Some things I would like to learn...

Since I am done with my school work and only have 1 state test and 2 finals left to take, I have been thinking what I should do with all my spare time. Just joking, I don't really have any spare time, but it's fun to think I do. So here is a list I came up with of things I would like to learn to do. I figure if I put it here the list won't get lost.

In no particular order...

Make cool hair bows (I can do the basic ones, but I want big and bold)
Make blog backgrounds
Sew much better
Make burp cloths (the cute ones out of diapers with stuff on them)
Get good at using my bread machine
Start to make dinner menus (stick to them)
Try new recipes

I am sure there is much much more I would like to learn to do, but in the meantime I think that is a good start. I have a cousin that makes amazing hair bows, so I am going to hit her up when I am in Cali this summer and see if she will teach me.

If anyone knows how to make blog backgrounds, please share.

Happy Easter

Here are some pictures of Bradley before we went to church on Easter, he wouldn't give me a good smile. He still hasn't gotten his Easter basket yet because it is full of candy of and we told him that if he wasn't good he doesn't get it and he hasn't been good long enough to earn it. Since Bryan is home today we will probably give it to him after his nap.

My parents were here for a week and I didn't get any pictures. Bradley loves having his Grandma Karen and Papa Nick here and the day the left he kept weeping and saying "I want them back." My mom and I did way to much shopping, Alex will definitely have plenty of clothes to wear. My dad was able to fix a few things in our house so it is ready to rent and we even have an offer on a house that we think may go through.

Another Dr's Apt

So today I had my Dr's apt and everything looks great. The baby has a good strong heart beat and extremely long legs. Her legs are so long it was funny to see them on the screen. My mom was there with me and we both made comments on how long they looked and the ultra sound tech even commented that they are very long. She apparently already has some personality because as soon as the tech would try to get a good picture of her face she would stick her hand up in front of it. She is currently head down and feet straight up. It must be why I don't feel her much. We did get to see her teeth sockets and all four chambers of her heart and everything looks great.

Cookies for GGMA

So Bradley was outside yesterday and I went out and asked him what he was doing because he just had little piles of mud on the concrete. He looked at me and said "I made cookies for GGMA." I didn't get a picture but it was so sweet. GGMA is Bryan's Grandma, who we call GMA, so when Bradley was born we started calling her GGMA. Bradley loves his GGMA and GGPA. They are amazing people and love Bradley just as much as he loves them.

Out of Control

Does anyone have those days when they feel completely out of control?

I usually try not to post negative things because no one really cares about my all my negative thoughts and everyone has their own issues, but today I feel completely out of control. I hate waiting on other people or having to ask for favors. I know it is necessary at times and I try to remember that, but with this pregnancy I feel even more out of control. I have been having these awful pains in my right leg. I even made Bryan take me to the hospital Saturday night in fear that it was a blood clot, everything was fine, but now the pain is in my arm. It seems to be traveling around my body and I can't get rid of it. I can usually stretch or work out and get whatever pain to go away, but being prego really puts a damper on things like that. I have been stretching my arm so much I think I could pull it off at this point. Tylenol is kinda of a joke to me. It doesn't do much for me and I feel like I have to take way to much for it to work and then it will affect the baby. Also to add things to the list is the stupid second car we have today wouldn't start so Bradley didn't get to go to school and he is home with me all day.

Since I have been so negative I will post a positive. School is almost done and I did get my homework done this morning before our Internet decided to go in and out. So I don't have to worry about that for a little bit longer.

A couple funny things from Bradley

Bradley randomly says things that make me laugh. Yesterday while driving to the airport at night Bradley announced "Papa Nicks bring doughnuts" Last time my dad was here he bought Bradley doughnuts one morning. It has been months and I can't believe he even remembers.

Also whenever we go by DFW or near there, Bradley always asks "Take Daddy to the airport." Since we make the drive usually twice a week, I am not surprised, but last night when we were going to the airport Bradley announced "We are at Daddy's airport." So apparently Bryan now owns the airport. It was so funny because I tried to explain that it was a lot of people's airport and Bradley just "No, it's Daddy's."

Whenever there are commercials on TV for anything, a restaurant, toys, food or anything else he comes to me and says he needs it. The other day it was Red Lobster. It is usually Chuck E Cheese, but sometimes they are definitely things he DOESN'T need or ever will.

It's a girl!!

If I haven't told you already (sorry Gma and Papa) it's a girl and she has a name. We are naming her Alexandria Nicole. We will call her Alex and Nicole is after my dad. So far everything with the pregnancy has been pretty good. Everytime I go to the Dr she has a really strong heartbeat and everything looks good. I go for my 2nd trimester ultrasound on April 9th, so we will have new pictures then and they should be pretty good because I will be almost 22 weeks.

I got a call today from Bryan's grandma and she asked if she could make the blessing gown. I am beyond excited, she is amazing and I know this little dress will be absolutly adorable and something Alex will always treasure.
