Crib

This morning before Dave went to work we went out and bought our daughter her crib and dresser. They should be in her room next week. Since they are made of good quality wood, they come assembled. I'm certain Dave is happy about that one. We bought floor models since they were 150$ to 200$ cheaper. The crib is actually coming out of the box bran new since they had one in stock. I was hoping they would have had the dresser would have been in stock since it has a couple of scratches, but to me no big deal. The dresser was 499$ for the floor model and 650$ bran new. The crib is a 3 in 1. It's a crib then a day bed then a double. She will have this for a long time.

Exam Results

I got my results of my Paramedic exam. Not good. I failed. Next time.

Itchy Part 2

SO I went to the doctor's about my itchy body and well he said that it could be from my enzymes in the liver or something that is causing the itch. I guess everything is out of wack due to the pregnancy. I had to go for a blood test. Hopefully they can figure this out. I'm certain Dave is getting tired of hearing about it and scratching my back for me. My loving husband keeps saying to me get a back scratcher.

Ann I will try that cream.

ITCHY ITCHY!!!!!

Like the title says I'm itchy. I've been reading every pregnancy book that I have and the only thing it says is that an itchy belly is normal. If that was the only spot I wouldn't care. I couldn't sleep last night since I was extremely itchy everywhere on my body. I went to the drug store to search for some type of relief. Bought some cream but at the moment no relief. The Pharmacist said to contact my doctor since my doc might want to do a skin test. Since I'm pregnant I phone the OB. Well her secretary says to me it could be an allergic reaction so to phone my family doc. Nice help or what. I will be phoning my family doc in the morning. Just thought I would share my misery. I'm flipping ITCHY> HELP

HAPPY

My dad went home for a 1 1/2 months( Jaquet River N.B.) On his way back to us in Sudbury he came to visit his daughter in Barrie. Well I should say he came to the car show. While he was here he help Dave put up our laundry door and my laundry light. I'm so happy to finally have these. Who would of known that these 2 small things would make a girl happy. I did forget to take a picture before for the judge for when we take our contractor to court for unfinished work. This weekend Dave said he would put up my bathroom mirror. The little things that were left unfinished are almost done. Hopefully by the end of Aug. I want to concentrate on our daughters room incase she's early. Her room is painted but we have decided to put the laminate floor in her room versus putting it on the stairs. We will get carpet for the stair's going to the rec room. I will be ordering her crib ( thanks to gran for that one) and her dresser. Can't wait to put them together. Well I'm off to water the lawn

Why Us?

Dave and I have been together for many years and during those times we had a lot of obstacles. We over came all of them. I'm getting really tired of obstacles. It doesn't matter if I do good things for people or not. We are always thrown a curve ball and I'm really, really tired. Why can't one simple thing that is supposed to be one of life's happiest moments just be that for us. I'm sorry if some of you have no idea what I'm talking about, but like Dave said in his blog it's personal and those who need to know, know. We have been told by family that it's probably nothing to worry about but once you hear what could happen, how can you forget. July 17th was the worst day of my life and Dave wasn't there to hear it. Thank God my mom was there. I feel like someone is playing with my emotion, testing me. I CAN"T HANDLE IT. I'm losing sleep over this since all I can do is think about her. I'm trying to keep busy so I don't think about it but as I'm writing I'm crying. I though maybe writing might help not this time. Dave is sound a sleep and snoring, I want a hug from him. I want this to be all over. Not soon enough. I'm also scared to have it end, since that beautiful day is going to be the only answer to our worries. I feel a little better

What A Horrible Day

I woke up in a good mood. I had every intention to go to the paint store and pick up paint. My mom and I are planning to paint the baby room. I was up early to get things ready but was starting to feel a little sick to my stomach. I decided to go for a nap when the phone ran and I got the worst news possible. Marc had passed on and so did Robin. Dave worked with Marc, we are both very upset over the entire situation. We are now waiting to see when the funeral is and if I can go. I think it will be held in Regina. Dave will be attending. That's all for now

Update On Exam

My exam was 3 hours long and they were hard questions. I thought this exam was going to be one of many but no this was the actual AEMCA( Advanced Emergency Medical Care assistant) certification. I have no idea how I did. The exam were scenario type. The scenario would give you a situation and it would last on page then you had 10 to 12 question to answer on the scenario. I had 120 to do. The last 20 I was running out of time so I read quickly and answered fast. If I pass this and my scenarios that I will do after the baby is born I get my EMCA. Easier than I thought.

Results Of Second Ultrasound

Yesterday was the big day. Our 2nd ultrasound. I was nervous since I wanted our baby to be perfect and knowing that she might have something little wrong with her kidneys is killing me. I try not to think about it but I can't help myself. This morning my OB's office called and ask me when my appointment was. This is the 3rd time they have phoned. I'm starting to think that if her secretary can't keep tract of appointments, what kind of Dr is she? While I had this so called disorganized secretary on the phone I ask if they received the results of my ultrasound. The lady said they did and I ask if I could get the results and she told me I had to wait till I see her. I was so shock that all I can say was ok. My appointment isn't till the 17th of July. I immediately broke down and called Dave and work. All I want is to find out if she's ok. Dave told me to phone my family doc. I did and his secretary was so nice that she gave them to me no problem. She said I can relax, that all they want to do is when she is born due an ultrasound. My mind is still not at ease but I guess it will do till the 17th.

My daughter won't be a day old and she will have to go have an ultrasound done. It kills me. All I wanted is a healthy baby. For those who haven't clued in, we know that we ae having a girl:)

The good thing about it is that I don't have to argue with Dave about his boy name selection. Here are some for those who haven't heard
Hammish
Angus
William
Wallace
MErlin
Dave I love you but this is to funny not to make fun of you. Please be nice when choosing a name for our daughter
