and it's still snowing....

Joel's work called this morning and he didn't have to go to work!! So we have waffles and bacon for breakfast...he shoveled....and now we're pretty much doing nothing!! It's quite nice! Our doctor's appointment even got cancelled!!
Joel and his friend Alex, however, did go out and brave the snow to buy Alex's XBOX 360. And they stopped at the store for chocolate chips so I could make them cookies. Boys.

7 months

Joel and I have been married for 7 months today! We are only 5 months away from our very first wedding anniversary. (And we'll have a little baby girl to celebrate with us!! )
It's so weird...it doesn't feel like it has been 7 months. So far it has been pretty much the best thing ever.




side note: our little baby moves around and kicks so much it is unbelievable! Today in class I jumped a little in my seat because she kicked so hard! I think it's cute...except when I'm trying to go to sleep. Then it's a little less cute. But I still like it.

other side note: the snow plow guy was outside of our apartment area for over 10 minutes this morning at 5 AM. We have one sidewalk. It doesn't take 10 minutes. omg.

end of the week.

Joel finally felt the baby kick last night. She was kicking so hard!!

My classes are unbelievable tiring. My two engineering classes and my math class keep me busy with difficult homework pretty much all the time. But it really helps a lot that I have really good teachers and the classes are interesting!


I am so tired of the cold. I want to be able to walk to class without my hands and face freezing!
And...if it is warm outside...it would mean that it was summer time and Ashley and Brad would be getting married and Joel and I would have a little baby! So really...the cold is just reminding me of how far away everything is.

Maybe I should just go outside and chill out. Maybe the cold weather can freeze my impatience instead of my hands and face.

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!

We are soo excited!!! The ultrasound was amazing. She was moving around so much! She weighs 11 oz and her heartbeat is 146 beats/min and she has two little legs and two little arms and a cute little head and feet. They said that she is growing perfectly and everything looks great!! I have pictures...but I have to scan them in first...and I'm really hungry and have a lot of homework. But it's a GIRL!! I want to go shopping for cute little baby girl clothes so badly! And I want to paint her room pink...and I want to go buy those cute little headbands with the bows...I'm so excited.

I'm so glad that Ashley went with us! She's the best auntie ever!

WE'RE HAVING A LITTLE BABY GIRL!!!!!!!!
I really can't stop smiling.
Is it June yet??

so about those pictures...

Joel took some pictures of me yesterday so I can start collecting pictures to scrapbook! I can't believe I'm almost half way done being pregnant!

And today....I got my very first pair of maternity pants in the mail! Thank you Gap!! I love them and they are so unbelievably comfortable.



And tomorrow....it's ultrasound day!! I'm so excited!

Ok! Here I go....

1. I am easily annoyed by some (a lot) noises. Like I get so annoyed I get a stomach ache. And...to make things worse...I have really good hearing for usually inaudible noises.

2. I started taking piano lessons at the age of three until I was 16. I like won competitions and stuff.

3. I was adopted when I was two weeks old.

4. I absolutely love cleaning and having things in the precise order they are supposed to be.

5. I avoid conflict at pretty much all costs.

6. Getting married to Joel was the best thing that ever happened to me and he continues to make everyday a happy one for me.

7. I play Dance Dance Revolution and Star Wars Battlefront on Joel's XBOX 360 a lot.


That was easier than I thought. I really was expecting that to take me hours. lol.

And...pretty much everyone has been tagged soo.....yeah.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRAD!!

wooo!!

books books books

So my purchasing total for books this semester comes to a grand total of a little over $500...but don't forget Joel's books, too!! I just finished buying like 5 of them on half.com which only really lowers them like $20-30 lower than what they would be at the bookstore. oh well. I'll probably end up liking some of them.

I love being back home in our apartment. The baby was kicking a lot of the way down to Moscow..he/she was probably excited too!

I have a doctors appointment this Friday. Oh goody...I get to be weighed right after the holidays. ha ha
