reversed everything!

So lately I have noticed that things are definitely changing... I'm reading a great book that has a lot of awesome information. But my body seems to be doing things backwards.

I have been lucky enough to not have full blown nausea but on occasion I have a pretty sickening feeling and have to lay down for a bit to recover. I've noticed that It's not a hard thing to keep things down, it's being able to eat in the first place without wanting to hurl. Which makes things really hard. I try to eat at much as I can to be able to work my full shift but most the time it hasn't been working so well. I'm usually incredibly hungry once I get home. One thing's for sure, I've had full blown headaches every day starting at around 2pm till I go to bed. It's hard cause normally I've not been fond of taking any type of medicine unless it's absolutely necessary. So now I really won't take any medication even thought the doctor gave me a list of safe medicines. I figure if I can stand it and be ok I'd rather not take anything and stay as healthy as possible!

Other than that so far things have been amazing! Not really showing at all yer since we're only 6 weeks in... But on October 7th we will be able to hear the heartbeat for the first time and we're both uber excited!

I know I know!

I know I'm a complete slacker when it comes to blogging but with our lives being all over the place the last little while it's been hard to sit and write about all the good things happening to us lately.
SO there is a lot to update since my last post so I'll try my best to capture it all in this post. First of all we have just moved to Grand Forks, ND. James is ina manager training program with Cenex Harvest States for the next year.

So we are getting used to tornado warnings, and incredibly strong winds, but WE LOVE IT HERE! Then again we haven't had a winter here yet. I am preparing to hibernate until the snow is gone.
As for me I just got hired at Starbucks and start on Wednesday with my training. It will be nice to have a second income for our family. Especially since we will be a family of 4 soon. That's pretty much all I will say on that one. Let's just say April will be a very happy month!
Jayden is loving his daycare. We call is school because it pretty much is. He is learning all his colors, letters, and comes home with more and more amazing vocabulary. The 2 and 3 year olds are being prepared for kindergarten which makes me very happy! Jayden loves his friends and all his teachers. He is super excited to go every day which makes it so much easier to leave him there.
Other than that we are just sitting pretty for the next year. James will be done with his training program, I will have my bachelors and we will be married around this time next year. So that's the update for now!

The things my son says...

I've been trying to see how much Jayden catches on to. So I ask him random questions through the day and see what he says.


Today the question was "Jayden do you want a brother or a sister?"

Jayden's answer "uh.. .I want a brother, a sister in a minute."

Then the next day I asked him the same question.

Jayden's answer this time "uh, I think I want a sister first."

So I asked him what his sister's name should be

Jayden's answer "name her Oddie"

my conclusion: He watches too much Garfield and he doesn't understand he can't just get a sibling "in a minute"
