Baby on Board

Yesterday, our school had our Thanksgiving Feast. It was alot of fun for my students and their families. While I was waiting for students to finish their special, someone mentioned to me that I had a baby on board. I can't believe that people are just starting to figure out that I'm pregnant. Although, this is probably a good thing! Yes, I'm not fat, just pregnant!
I have had such a hard time gaining the weight that I know is necessary for our baby to be healthy. Last week, I had to get ready to go to a family party. I didn't want to go, for fear of people telling me that I had gotten much bigger. It's amazing that when you have not had a child before, your willing to tell someone that they "are starting to show," or my favorite "You've grown since I've seen you." I don't know why, but when people tell me I'm getting bigger, I just want to cry. I guess growing up worrying about my weight and then having to gain all of this weight makes me feel that way. After 4 years of waiting to have a kid, I can't wait until she is born. We have been trying to think of names. Gary is set on one name and it's so hard to find a middle name to go with that name. Everyday my mom calls us and tells us a new name. I guess we'll have to wait and see what we'll name her. I also can't wait until she is born and I can start exercising more and doing sit ups. I definently will be walking so I can loose all of the "baby weight" I've gained.

Wisdom Teeth

Yesterday I got my wisdom teeth pulled out. I never thought that I would have to have them pulled out. It wasn't fun at all. I couldn't eat and I got sick from having them pulled out. The medicine made me sick too. My cheecks are very swollen. I can't wait until I can eat the foods I'm used to. Well thank goodness for a good mom. I stayed at my parents house yesterday. Gary didn't get off from work until about 9:30.

Moving Day

We have recently moved into a three bedroom house. I love our house, but just wished that the market was better and that we could sell our condo. We moved closer to our Gary's family and work. My commute is so much better. I can't wait until we have our house cleaned and organized.

Ruidiso

Gary and I just got back from going with his family to Ruidiso, New Mexico. Not everyone was able to go. Last year, everyone but me went. I didn't get to go last year due to working and not having enough leave. This year Cal, Mary Ann, Alisha, Gary and I went. We had lots of fun, but wished that everyone else could have been there too. Alisha flew to Alberqueque and meet her mom and dad at the airport. Gary and I stayed at the hotel and waited for them to arrive. After everyone was there we continued on to New Mexico. Cal and Mary Ann have a time share there. It is a nice 2 bedroom condo. When we got there we were greeted by some birds on the back patio. We couldn't believe that there were so many birds hanging out on the back patio. It is a amazing how they build their nests. Some of the other things that we did there are the following: We went to a maze ( I hated it, because I couldn't find my way out), horseback riding (This was so much fun, we even seen an elk while riding.), golfing (I played good the first day, but after that I lost my luck), shuffle board (Alisha and I both won once.), swam and played tennis. Gary is much better at playing sports than I am. All in all we had lots of fun and got to eat lots of yummy food.
