How far along? 13 weeks, 5 days
Maternity clothes? Ah whatever I have found second hand around town, so yes.
Best moment this week: Finding out there is cell service at Mount Milligan
Not so good moment of the week: Camp food and still puking.
Miss Anything? Being able to eat normally and sleep well.
Movement: Nope

Gender: Not finding out. Have had dreams about both.
Food Cravings: Berries, Subway and cheese.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Everything it seems. Though if I push myself and load hay or something like that, sick bad for DAYS.
Symptoms: RLS like crazy!!! Headaches, nausea, puking, sore, waddling already :( cause your hips just feel sore, HEARTBURN, peeing 10 times in the middle of the night. You know? The usual
Emotions: Jarrod says I am crazy most times. I just lose my cool fast usually.
Looking forward to: GOING HOME. And moving. And just being less stressed. Is it bad I am tired of working already?

Starting the BLOG

All my friends have blogs. I started one but haven't been so diligent in keeping it up. But to tell you the truth, I read like everyone else's and have been extremely bored lately. With my role as housewife looming in the not so distant, even though it feels like distant, future, I thought I better jump on the bandwagon. And work is really slow and we just got internet. So why not?? I haven't really figured the ins and outs of making my blog "pretty" but hey, maybe I'll get there one of these days. So here's to the start of our little redneck family. Jarrod and I met through a friend one night in February and haven't really been apart too much since. Soon we found out most of our friends are mutual so it's basically a miracle we hadn't met previously. Mutually, we have agreed the timing must not of been right. Or our friends are just jerks. We sway between the two options regularly. Since then, we have fought, gotten along, had some embarrassing moments and fallen in love. Who knew right? So we went ring shopping. Well I went and he followed. And then the morning sickness hit.

3 weeks pregnant with morning sickness?? Jarrod insisted it was the flu and I was just "imagining". But even in his denial, I had a feeling. One HPT later, it was official. Actually two. The first one "malfunctioned" which you think would be impossible but no. And I was no less sick. So here I am 13 1/2 weeks along, still sick as a dog, drugged up with Diclectin at work blogging. And it's not twins. Already had that ultrasound.

Jarrod proposed sometime in June I think? Haha I made him go to the Vanderhoof Horse Equifair with me and watch the Parade of Breeds for about 4 hours. He wasn't the happiest camper till we got home and he asked me to undo his velcro sandals. Seriously?? Undo your own shoes! As I walked away, he grabbed my arm and got down to "undo his shoes" and asked me to marry him. Awe, how sweet. We plan to celebrate our marriage next year when we were originally planning to get married on Canada Day long weekend because then we have time to plan, I won't be 16 weeks pregnant, we won't be stressed about buying our house and we really want to have a good time with all of our friends and family.

Oh yea. We are buying a house. Hopefully. Because that's what we said about the last two houses we put in for. Financing is approved and home inspection is Friday with, fingers crossed, good results?? Just for insurance now which shouldn't be too much of an issue. This is our starter home. It's small but will serve us well for the time being till we build our own shack. Plus, it's smaller to clean right? I guess we will live in town for a few years, get some boat and quad payments off our plate. Jarrod won't be able to shoot naked off the front porch but he will survive I guess.
