$90 in taxs?! Well ok!

So I am looking into booking a flight for me and Josh to go to Nevada the first week of November for the family reunion and to find out what Baby Wray will be :) BUT.... our flight for both of us round trip is just as much as gas would cost. So yay! We save a 12 hour trip in the car on possibly icy roads. But NOT YAY! Because the government is insane. I just got charged $90 in tax's. Yes. That's right. Ridiculous? I think so. Has anyone looked into these charges airlines are giving us? They have a September 11th charge (so now WERE paying for September 11th?!) They also have a departure tax. A facility usage fee. Government tax (which I can understand). Baggage Tax. Booking tax. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm. I know for a fact 4 years ago we didn't have to have all these taxs. Just saying. Cough cough cough. This is crap.

The Wild Ride

We cooked a can of beans on the burner last night. Yup. That's right. We have highly considered poaching a rabbit or deer...or even our neighbors cow this week. Time to go shopping? I think yes.

On another note I think I may be starting to get a small baby bump. Either that or i'm just getting fat (not....we have no food in our house). Whatever it is its very uncomfortable.

Also as you see over to the right top corner ----------------->
that we have now opened a poll on whether our baby will be a girl baby or boy baby. Please go vote :)


Love you all <3

Strange things are happening to me..

strange strange things (click here). This song has become my theme song over the past few weeks. Strange things are definitely happening to me, no doubt about it. But they are good strange things, strange things that will lead to one very cute baby in 7 months. Morning sickness has been my new enemy. It hits about 9am and leaves around 12. Then again in the evening around 6 I get it for another hour. My hair is growing out BLONDE? I have this blonde ring around my head from my roots. So weird. On top of that I don't like food anymore. The sight or thought of food makes me very nauseous. It has become a chore to eat (I never thought I would hear myself say that). Also I'm SO TIRED all of the time. Working full time is horrible for me right now. Hopefully within the next few weeks I will start getting over all of that.

We went in for our first ultrasound yesterday. How exciting is that? We were both overly ecstatic when we saw our little baby's heart beating. There is nothing more sound than seeing your baby and knowing he is perfectly healthy.

We are so blessed and so happy :)

Diary of a mad black woman!

Well not quite... I'm not black....but it could definitely be called "Diary of a mad pregnant woman". So here comes my rant for the day. PREPARE!
Ugh. I am so tired of the Facebook scene. I am sick of reading everyones DRAMA! Did we not graduate from middle school here people? I guarantee this world used to be 10 times less dramatic before Facebook came along. So many people say "If you don't like it then delete your account". I totally would ...except there are people on there that are hundreds of miles away that me and Josh love very much and this is the best way to keep in touch. So nobody try offering up that tidbit of advice, cause we love you all to much to just not Facebook stalk you :)

On a hypocritical note I would like to document the lovely loveliness we experienced last week. I'm pretty sure we got the full serving of being an adult. So we rented a house...and were told we could move in Saturday. So we pack up ALL of our stuff friday night etc etc. Then I text our landlord and say "Hey we will be there tomorrow afternoon." she responded "Ok, sounds good:)"
So we show up and the current tenants hadn't even started PACKING. Holy swiss I was so mad. But we just brushed it off and went and lived with Josh's parents for 3 days. We show up again on Tuesday to the house and NO progress has been made. So we have all of our stuff we have ever owned in one room that we are also sleeping in, eating in, and living out of, because there stuff was still ALL over the house. Not one room was empty of their stuff except the one we were living in. Anywhooooooo. So then we find out the black mold in the bathtub wreaks every time it gets wet, none of the outlets in the house work, and the carpet cleaners were supposedly  supposed to come about 7 different time (and they never showed up) Sketchy? Uhhh Yahhh. Luckily everything we had was still packed away into all our boxs and bags. All week Josh kept saying "This is just the storm before the calm" and I really really reallyyyyyy wanted to see the calm, but I couldn't quite yet until Friday night.  We found an ADORABLE house. We LOVE our landlords. And Chevy is having the time of his life. We are so dang blessed.

So now this brings me onto my rant about trials. EVERYBODY has trials. They aren't all the same exact road. But we are all given the same amount of trials. Nobody is tested harder than others. The point is we all have our stuff. Don't think that others are having the time of their lives when you're going through misery. Everyone has worries, concerns, family issues, and trials. This is life. This is why we're here. And the point is to realize who has walked the same exact path we have. There is one person who will ALWAYS understand how you exactly feel, and there is no better feeling in the world knowing that there is someone by your side who knows your pain and suffering, your wants and needs, your hopes and dreams.

We love our lives :)
