Horrible Pregnancy Hormones!!!

     Okay so this pregnancy has my hormones WAY out of whack!  I am super super emotional.  I find myself crying at the drop of a hat!  It seems like everything makes me cry! The other day my sister was doing her speech in front of me that should had to present in her Speech class.  It was over Toys for Tots and I started bawling like a baby! LOL!  She showed a YouTube video in her presentation of kids without toys and how Toys for Tots provided them with toys and I just got all kinds of choked up!  It wasn't even a sad speech is was an informative and persuasive one! I also find myself being super stressed and worried about everything which causes me to cry! Sometimes I just cry and I don't even know why I am crying. LOL!  Then in the next minute I am either really frustrated or mad!  It's bad!  I really feel for Steve, my sister and my mom for having to put up with me.  Thankfully they are all super understanding.  I am really hoping this phase passes soon and my hormones level out.  It's so crazy because with Dacen I was the opposite.  I would find myself laughing at just about everything!  And once I would start laughing I couldn't stop sometimes!  I definintely enjoyed those kinda hormonal episodes alot more than I am enjoying these crying and mad ones! It's almost like when one little thing goes wrong I will start crying or get mad.  The other day Dacen was throwing a fit and instead of discplining him I just started crying!  I think he was confused he soon quit crying and started saying to me, "Don't cry, don't cry! LOL! I think my family is just learning to either have tissues on hand for me or get out of my way! I am very blessed to have such a wonderful and supportive family!  Okay, okay... better stop there if I keep going I may get choked up and start crying! LOL!  Oh the joys of pregnancy! I saw this pregnancy t-shirt below and thought it was fitting for me! HAHA!  I found it here!

My Favorite Maternity Jeans

     A couple of weeks ago I bought a bunch of maternity clothes at Old Navy!  Old Navy is a great place for affordable and cute maternity clothes and is an even better place to get your basics!  I have fallen in LOVE with their skinny maternity jeans and even their capri's.  I absolutely love the way they fit.  They are SO comfortable.  I have a couple of other pairs of maternity jeans from when I was pregnant with Dacen and they seem to always fall down.  The smooth panel on these Old Navy ones stays up all day long and fits just right.  Not too tight or too lose.  They color of the denim go great with just about everything too!  I have always had a hard time find jeans that fit my hips and waist but can also fit my thighs.  Usually if I get them to fit my waist and hips they are super super tight on my thighs.  These are not like that, for once I found a pair of jeans that can fit my thighs and all the other places too.  I love these so much I told my sister I would want to wear them even if I wasn't pregnant! LOL!  I have been seen wearing them in some of my weekly baby updates I post on Sundays.  If you are interested you can check them out by clicking here! They are marked down right now to only $34.97!! Also,they are having a 20% off sale right now.  You can use the promo code ONSAVE. Or if you have an Old Navy, Gap, or Banana Republic Card you can use the promo code STUFFSAVE to save 30% off!  :) 

19 Weeks

19 weeks already! It seems like this pregnancy is flying by! I am feeling pretty good! Not much new this week except feeling movement every day now! I love that feeling! Steve has been gone all weekend at a shooting competition so I am ready for him to be back! Being pregnant and taking care of a 3 year old by yourself can wear you out! LOL! Also, I find myself not being able to sleep when he is away! I am really ready for our next baby doctor appointment which will be the end of this month on the 24th. As far as cravings go I have been loving egg mcmuffins! I was getting them from McDonalds but realized that probably was the healthiest thing to do so I started making my own on whole wheat English muffins and I add avocado! They are still probably not that healthy but atleast it's a little better. I also have a new craving that key line pie I had yesterday! I am going to have to pick me up some more next time I am at the store! My belly is definitely getting bigger! I was all dressed up for my niece's baptism today but forgot to take a pic until I got home and was all comfy! I didn't have anyone to take a pic for me do I tried to take one in a mirror! It's not the best and I look like a mess! This afternoon Dacen and I took a nap and just chilled around the house! I tried keeping him in so that his sinus infection didn't get worse! Hopefully, he's antibiotic kicks in soon and he starts to feel better!

Lazy Saturday and Key Lime Pie

Today I spent the entire day inside! Dacen came down with a really bad sinus infection so I wanted to keep him in. The weather in Oklahoma has been crazy! It's hot one day and then freezing the next! So we laid around and played all day! I did get some cleaning done which was good! I did run to Target real quick while my sister was still at my house in the morning! I had to pick up some Kleenex for poor Dacen's runny little nose and get some Johnson and Johnson Vapor Bath for him. While I was there I spotted key lime pie as I was walking by the freezers to get to the Kleenex isle! I have only had key lime pie a couple times in my life but for some reason my pregnancy hormones kicked in and told me I HAD to buy some! Let me tell you it is the best key lime pie I have ever had! Mmmm! I ended up eating both slices today! LOL! Steve is still gone but we are ready for him to be back! Tomorrow out niece which is Steve's sister's little girl is getting baptized so Dacen and I are going to watch and then go to my sister in-laws house for lunch! Hoping the weather is warm so I can wear my maxi skirt I got! This was another impulsive buy from Target today! I don't know what it is about that place but I will go in for one thing but come out with ten!

The Color Purple

Tonight my mom and sister are staying the night with me and Dacen since Steve is still out of town! We got pizza from my fav pizza place Chicago Pizza! We are planning in making a comfy palette and all watching the movie The Color Purple in the theater room once Dacen goes to bed! My mom has been wanting to see this movie again for a really long time but hasn't been able to find it. I found it for her at Hastings for only $5.99! My sister and I have never seen it and since I enjoy older movies I told her I would watch it with her! It has some famous actresses in it and I have heard people talk about it before so I'm looking forward to watching it! I'm glad they are staying the night with me because it's scary by myself!

Stir Fry

Steve left for his competition shoot in Florida today so Dacen and I are on our own until Monday! So my mom and sister came over for dinner and helped me with getting Dacen his bath and ready for bed! We made stir fry or what we call stir fry and it was so yummy! We take round steaks and cut them up and then add lots of bell peppers and mushrooms! We also add some soy sauce and worcestershire sauce! We eat it over rice and usually have a side of French bread! It's one of my favorite meals! Now Dacen and I are cuddling up and watching Wreck It Ralph for the bajillionth time! LOL!

Favorite Candy

Circus Peanuts! They are one of my favorites! However, not very other people seem to like them. But I think they are oh so yummy! Everytime I take a bite of one if reminds me of my childhood! They are like a super sugary marshmallow but not as light and fluffy as one! Tonight I ran by the grocery store to pick up some flour and saw them so I just had to get them! I was getting flour at the store because I thought I would make the Chick Fil A nugget recipe you may have seen on pinterest! Well, I made them and they tasted great, but to me it's not worth the mess and hassle! LOL! I would rather just drive through Chick Fil A! I really didn't save much money in fact I think it was more and I had one messy kitchen with flour everywhere once I was finished cooking! I guess if it was a Sunday or if they were closed and you just really really craved them I could see making them! But for me I think my craving can wait till they are open! :) after cleaning the messy kitchen up I did sit down and enjoy my circus peanuts for dessert!
