Shake what yo mama gave ya, it took her 9 months to make ya!

Today was my 2nd app at the baby docter. I love Carter so much, she is thee coolest doctor ever! She is having her baby this weekend ( like I said everyone is pregnant). I am 10 1/2 weeks starting to get a lil bump and can't seem to stop the hunger. At my app today she did an ultrasound and it was amazing to see this little blob turn into a somewhat baby in just 3 short weeks. We saw the chord, the arms, and legs. In the middle of looking at baby it starting kicking and waiving its arms! It was the most amazing thing in the world. My little peanut is kicking and being so active and I can't even feel it! We listened to the heart beat and just sat in awe. Carter said that with a strong heartbeat and it being so active it is a less chance of losing it. Life is a gift from god and we should never take these little miracles for granted. Cam was so happy when we left, I think it is starting to sink in that he is going to be a father. I think it sunk in when I couldn't stop throwing up! Which that is getting a lot better by the way. Anyways I'll keep ya updated for our next app is Dec 23.

Tough love

It's crazy when I stop and count on my fingers who is all pregnant around me! It seems like everyone is mating. I am lucky to be in the situation I am in, but it does get hard. It is a constant battle. I work every day and go to school even more. I want to get as much schooling before this little one arrives but I feel overwhelmed and overworked at the end of every day. Is it worth it? I don't know yet. I am getting ready to register for next semester and I find myself having a panic attack. I will be in my final stages of my pregnancy. Do I really want to overexert myself? How will I do this with 3 dogs, 2 frogs, a man friend, and an infant. Breathe, breathe. I guess the weather is making me a Debbie downer. Life is so hard and it is unfair. But we just have to keep on going and don't ever look back. I really have nothing important to talk about tonight, but sometimes you just need to talk. I haven't had a real conversation all day, past the normal standards. Anyways here are some names we are thinking about for the baby. We will know by Christmas what the sex is. Everyone pray for a girl!!

Girls: Capri Ann Johnston (google the song capri by colbie caillat) and Piper Marie Johnston
Boys: Tripp Sevy Johnston, Trapper Camron Johnston and maybe Dash Smith Johnston

let me know what you think!

Baby Mama Drama

So today is my mark of my 8th week. I am two months along now. I have carried a child (alien looking) in my tummy for two whole months. Right now I have 4 arms and legs, 20 toes and fingers, and two hearts. When I stop to think about it, I can't believe it. How can my body handle all this work? Who knew the womans body was capable of producing a human. I am blessed.

I am starting to feel better. I still have my bouts of sickness and hormonal outburts more than I'd like to admit. But I guess I can say this is one of the beauties of being a Mother. Although it sucks! It's nice to have my sister who is 7 weeks ahead of me, she can explain what is going on. She has been my mentor in everything and even now it shows. It'll be sooo fun to be all big and wanting pickles together!

Yay for babies and support from everyone!!!!!
