Feeling uNcOmFoRtAbLe

I'm still feeling all around icky usually early in the day and again, in the middle of the afternoon. My clothes are getting a little uncomfortable on me, so I've had to switch most of my clothes out with my old "fat" clothes from when I weighed almost 200 lbs. Oy! So far it just in the stomach area, but I know my butt and thighs are soon to follow. Also, I've noticed that EVERYTHING has a smell...some smells are barely there, but they still exist. I can smell everything. I can tell what kind of detergent people use or even what the garbage can contains (without looking inside of it!). I think that those women who actually say that they "enjoy being pregnant" are either out of their minds or they're lying to everyone...including themselves. I knew it was going to have it's up's and down's, but so far there is really nothing kewl about being pregnant....okay, maybe it's pretty nifty to be buying really cute baby clothes and daydreaming about the baby....but aside from all that, this kinda blows chunks. Literally and figuratively speaking.
Great. It's only 3 in the afternoon and I feel the need for a nap coming on. I probably haven't slept this much since I was little. Nap time. Talk at you all later. Toodles!

MaTeRnItY sHoPpInG

I just had a Girl's-Day-Out with my friends Holly and Kayla (who recently found out that she is pregnant and due the same day as me). We went shopping for some maternity clothing. I only picked up about 6-7 shirts. I don't know what size pants I'll be needing, so I decided to wait until I'm gonna be needing them. Most of the shirts are pretty dressy, but still semi-casual. I also bought some really cute baby jumpers from Hot Topic that were on sale. SO CUTE!!! They say things like "Cute but stinky. Things even out" and "Born to Rock" and "I listen to Led Zepplin with my daddy." How cute uis THAT??? Oh, one of the shirts I purchased today says "What's Kickin'?" and it's got two little baby feet prints on it. I won't be able to were it until I get a lot bigger which is okay cuz I won't be big enough till fall and it's a long-sleeve shirt.
Us girls have been just bummin' around and enjoying the 86 degree weather. Meanwhile, Matthew and Curtis (Holly's husband) and Matt's friend, Cody, have been fixing Curtis' jeep all morning and afternoon. They had fun doing their manly things while I enjoyed spending time with the girls. Right now, the guys are cleaning-up their greasy, stinky selves so that we all can go to the movie theater. Don't know what we're gonna see, but we know we want to see a movie.
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Take care. TOODLES!!!!!

24/7 sickness

OY! Today has been a long day. I've been feeling nausiated and super tired all day. Matthew says that I feel like I'm hot as an oven. The doctor says that it's normal to have a higher temp while you're pregnant cuz, apparently, I'm like a giant incubator. Meh...whatever. I just hope that these feelings don't last for too long. It makes Army life EXTRA miserable.
Other than all that, not much going on. I finally was able to turn in the last of my paperwork to get chaptered out of the Army. I hope it won't take longer than a week or so to get approved. Matthew is still expected to go to Ft.Carson, CO. at the end of the month. I hope I'm out in time enough to go with him right away.
By the way. The dates on the previous 2 entries were incorrect. I found out I was prego on my birthday (25 Feb.) and I put the "bun in da oven" on my blog on 26 Feb. And "Army can see" was added on 01 Mar. Just thought you ought to know.
I need to go now. Too tired to type any more words. Peace out!
