Oh where has the week gone? Day 6 of 2012 is almost over. DH is still at work, so I'm just watching TV waiting on him to get home, the last hour always seems to drag on. This has been a busy week. DD went to speech on Tuesday, when she came out her therapist informed me that she made a chicken nose, umm ok? I have never heard DD make a chicken noise. Her therapist said that she saw a picture of a chicken and said "bock bock".  Today at therapy she said "shhh" and then made snoring sounds like she was sleeping. She amazes me, she really does. I have never said bock bock to her for a chicken, we always say "cluck cluck" and I have never made snoring noises to her either, where on earth is she learning this stuff. She really is a sponge. On Wednesday I had an OB appointment, I went ALONE....it was AMAZING! I didn't have to pack up DD and drag her into the office and hope and pray that she would be a good girl [normally she is but toddlers will be toddlers]. Doc says everything is on track, baby is moving like CRAZY which is good, but why must the most movement happen when I'm about to go to bed? Oh well. After my OB appointment I went to Goodwill just to look. DH and I have been trying to find a dresser for Bagel Bite's room once we get to the new house. We found one for $20 from one of DH's co-workers but we really needed another one. We wanted something sturdy but didn't really want to drop $100 either [couldn't really afford that]. Well Goodwill paid off!! $38 REAL WOOD dresser, almost perfect condition. I'll sand it down and paint it once we make a final decision about what we want in the baby's room. I'm so glad I was able to find a GOOD dresser that will last for a while that didn't break the bank. Thursday my friend J came over and we hard core cleaned the living room and dining room. It looks fantastic, I am so thankful I have a friend that just walks in and cleans. She really helped me out, while this pregnancy hasn't been that bad to me I have had my share of issues and the house has kinda fallen apart a little. On Monday she even helped DH and I organize the basement [that was Monday though]. It's been an eventful but good week, lots got done in the house and DD really surprised me with the things that come out of her mouth. What a week! Oh and tonight I tried a new recipe for frozen quiche, I'll post more about that later though.

Long Time No Blog

Life has been CRAZY since my last post. I'm in school and trying to keep up with that, DD has been approved for speech therapy, I have OB appointments, DH has crazy hours at work, I have crazy insomnia, I'm nesting and oh we are moving soon.....
:Lets break the craziness down shall we?

I have a final this week. Online school fits really well into my life but sometimes I wonder how much I'm really learning. Although since I have been studying the same things for 5 years [thank you stupid transfers] I guess I know more then the person who is only learning about it for the first time. I feel like there is a lot of over lap between the classes too. Currently I am taking a Lifespan Development class...well in the Early Development and Middle Development classes I'm clearly going to be studying the same stuff just more in depth I guess...anyways once I am done with this final I have a month off to deal with the move [more about that in a sec]. Trying to finish....getting there.

At DD's 18 month doctor's appointment DH and I had to fill out a survey about her. It asked things like, can she turn pages in a book, can she throw a ball, how many words does she know and a bunch more. Well based on what DH and I put down they felt she didn't know as many words as she should. He pediatrician said he would put in for a hearing test and a speech evaluation. Well hear test came back all clear and her evaluation came back saying she was behind [which DH kinda felt she was]. The evaluation shocked us to say the least. They said she should know 20-50 word....she knows like 8words. She DD goes to speech twice a week. We've only gone a few times but so far so good, she's been pretty good for them no major melt downs [knock on wood it stays that way]. They even gave us some signs to work on with her to help us communicate a little better. She's doing good with her signs, so we'll see where this all goes in the new year.

I get to see my OB a lot more often now. I really do love my OB, I'm so glad she was recommended to me back when I was pregnant with DD. Everyone in her office is just fantastic, from the receptionists to the nurses. She just keeps teasing us "are you ready, here comes number 2" and she always says hi to DD in the hall way as we walk by, even gives her a lollipop [which of course DD doesn't turn down]. We're getting closer and closer now

DH has crazy stupid hours since my last post...he went from being in a class that got out at noon every day, to being on 12s [working 11pm to 11am] over Christmas, to being off for a week to being on 12s again [7pm to 7am] now I know that is part of military life but I have a toddler [a loud toddler] and my husband is suppose to sleep all day....yea ok...poor DH is more like a zombie. Then after this set of 12s he'll work swings [3pm to 11pm] which I am totally ok with. We just need to figure out when he's going to ALS....and that will be a whole new schedule...my gut feeling is they will do it right on or after my due date. Oh well we'll see

Insomnia and nesting....typical while pregnant. DH came home from work the other day and I had rearranged everything on the kitchen counters in the middle of the night [he was shocked]. I've been crazy about the laundry basket [DH likes to throw his stuff on the floor normally I deal...not lately]. My house is still cluttered but I am working on it.

We move soon....CAN NOT FREAKING WAIT! DH talks to the housing office this coming week to get everything dealt with. We know what house we are getting [layout I wanted YAY] and we know that we will have keys no later then February 15th but I want to move NOW! I will update again when I know more about what is going on with all that.

Well that's pretty much it...Christmas is over I got NCIS season 7 and 8 and I only have 1 more episode to watch before I need something else to keep me entertained
DH also got me Sims 3 Pets [my insomnia is loving it] is addicting to say the least
