Well, I'm not pregnant. Slightly disappointing. But God has His timing.


I did get my camera already. It came a week early, and it's been fantastic fun.


I'm so tired right now. My feet must hate me. Yesterday, I took Mischa to the park to play with another little girl that she shares her birthday with. They were so cute together! It rained a lot recently, so the park still had quite a few puddles, and therefore there was plenty of mud... They got pretty nasty! But it was really adorable. What cracked me up was that they would freak out whenever they slipped in the mud, or stepped in a puddle, yet they kept doing it...

Well, I don't really have a whole lot on my mind right now. I'm waiting for Dusty to get home. He went to see a friend that's been away at college for a while. I think the last time we saw him was New Years'.

EIGHT DAYS until we go on vacation!! We're all so excited! It's going to be so nice to get away from the stress of everyday life. All we have to do is make sure we eat, just go to the beach whenever we want, and just relax. The only busy part, I think, is going to be chasing Mischa, since she's walking, and can be fast. Of course, the drive down isn't going to be all that great. But definitely well worth it.

Ok, I'm off to bed. My list of things to do and errands to run just never seems to get any shorter... And I never seem to get enough rest!

Hmm... my first blog..

So this is my first blog (with Blogger at least), and I am in no way going to even try to make a bang on the internet blogging scene. Being honest with myself, I'm probably going to be the only one reading this anyway. And that's just fine.
I have been married for 2 years and almost 3 months. We have a beautiful 14-mo daughter who is our world. And we think I'm pregnant again. Scary.
Don't get me wrong. We want a good group of kids, and I've actually been telling my husband a lot lately that we should have another baby soon. But our plans were to start in October so the baby would hopefully be born around his birthday (July). Our daughter was born 10 days after mine, and he wanted to try to do that again.
And we're going to Florida on vacation in less than 2 weeks. I really don't want to be puking the whole time. My first pregnancy was an aweful experience at first. We almost lost her at 9 weeks, and I had morning sickness all day -everyday- for the entire first trimester. I know that every pregnancy is different, but one of my fears is to go through that again.
I also had a miscarriage last November, and I'm scared to go through that again too. It was one of the worst experiences of my life. And, unfortunately, I had to go through the initial part alone. My husband was out of state with friends. And even if he came home as soon as it happened, it would have been several hours before he would have been home.
It still hurts.
But anyway, there are so many things going on in my life right now, I feel like I'm forgetting things all the time. But usually I'm not, it's just paranoia. :)
There are good things too! Such as the upcoming family vacation. And we also ordered me a new camera. Anyone who knows me, knows I'm a photography fanatic. For the past 2 1/2 years, I've been using just an $80 point-and-shoot 5mp Samsung. And it's got the job done, don't get me wrong. But I need something with a bit more versatility. So we've ordered me a Canon Rebel XSi 12.2 mp. It's coming with 5 lenses and several other things. And it's supposed to arrive two days before we leave for vacation! I'm so excited!!
Well, I supposed I should end this rambling for now. The baby has trouble sleeping because of teething, and wakes up randomly crying (poor thing)...
