My Big Boy

Austin rolled over from his back to his tummy this morning. I'm so proud. :-) I have been babysitting since 11am and it is just about 12am. Lucky for me it was between two different children, and they do sleep a fair amount of the time that they're here. Anyway, the one I'm "watching" now was suppose to leave an hour and a half ago, I'm a little frustrated cuz I have bible study tomorrow and I'm tired now... Life goes on though. Sam's been a sweety lately. It's great. He's been reminding me a lot of how he was when we first started dating. Not quite as sweet, but pretty close. :-) Kathy is coming to visit me in a week and a half! I'm very excited to have a visitor. She will be my first one! My apartment is too clean for me. I tidyed up while Sam had duty and the cleanliness is weirding me out. I'm not going to intentionally mess it up though... I dunno, something to get used to I guess. Well, I am way too drained to think of stuff to write, so I'm going to go. Good night.

Congratulations, Austin! Before you know it, he'll be 9 months old like Maia. *cry*

Running On Low

I was suppose to be done babysitting for one of the two families I babysit for last week and I am scheduled into next week. It's my own fault and it's really not horrible because I need the money and I don't mind helping someone out, but there are reasons that I decided to give my notice. One of those reasons is that I can't sleep the night before I have to watch these kids. Last night I got four hours of sleep, I am a robot. I'm having dinner at the Manning's house for the second night in a row. Sam isn't the happiest with me because I drove our car into a small river... Not really, it was just a road that was incredibly flooded. I failed to notice something amiss and yeah, things that are not suppose to get water in them got water in them. That'll teach me to go out driving during tropical storms. My cousin was born August 9th. It's cool. My baby and my cousin are going to be born the same year. One of my baby showers is this Saturday. I'm SO excited. I'm not really expecting anything. I'm just glad I'll have a bunch of my Virginia friends in one place at one time. Sam hasn't ever really thrown a party inviting a bunch of my girl friends. It's always his navy buddies. Not that I mind them a ton... just a little. Especially last Friday night! They were driving me nuts! Sam decided to invite a "few" people over at 10:30pm and nobody was going to get really drunk or anything, so what happens? There's like 12 people in our apartment, someone waving their knife around outside, and a fridge full of beer and no food. Oy! I shouldn't complain too much. Sam has been great for this whole month, and when I say great I mean helping with housework, seeming interested in me and things having to do with the baby, and other stuff. I've liked being around him. Hopefully the car is fixed soon and he can stop stressing about that. As for me, finding an apartment in Cali and booking hotels along the way is what I need to be worrying about.

**EDIT:(8/16/10)

I realize now Sam was probably SO ticked about the dumb car cuz he was worried about visiting his girlfriend who lived in Richmond, two hours away.  *END EDIT

Just so you know, Rocco, Kris, and Renee all agree that it's entirely not your fault that you drove through a deeper-than-you-realized puddle and there is no reason for your husband to be mad at you about it. And your shower will be kick-ass, as much as a baby shower can be kick-ass.

*Big Sigh*

This is Sam's third day gone and I feel like a baby for saying it, but I miss him! I'm incredibly drained today for some reason. I got 10 or so hours of sleep and I don't feel like I can move. It might be the humidity. It's suppose to storm tonight though, so that's something to look forward to. I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to have for dinner and I have no idea. My cabinets are practically bare. I could have a bagel. Hmmmm. I might do that. Of course I might break down and go to the grocery store too. I don't know! Around two I went to the doctor's office because I haven't been able to breathe lately. I was there for about an hour. Five minutes were spent with the doctor. I got to hear the baby's heartbeat again though and that was cool. I haven't felt it move in the past couple of days so I was a little worried. Now I feel better. After the doctor I went to put gas in the car. It was the first time I had done it myself. I think I did pretty well and I am proud. I know I'm pathetic. So from the gas station I zoomed to the NEX for my eye appointment. It was just a check up to make sure my contacts were working for me. I was there for maybe 20 minutes then I bought a box of contacts and left. On my way home I made a deposit at the bank, dropped my prescription off at Walgreens and now I'm at the library. When I'm done here I think it's back to Walgreens and then maybe to the grocery store. The more I think about Sam's and my budget the less appealing the grocery store sounds though. Ay ay ay. Ya know, I thought maybe since I'm not in college I could skip being a poor college student, but I think it's inevitable that a lot of college age people just end up not having a lot of money. Grrr! I suppose time to get on with my day and stop whining.
