2020

I’m sitting at home. ALONE. ALL ALONE. L I T E R A L L Y A L L A L O N E. And it’s been such a great day. I have done so much stuff today that has really filled my cup up to make me a whole human being again. As I […]

one year old

After a hectic start to Jolee’s life…where are we now? Well, I did not keep up month to month posts with Jolee. So, we are pretty much going to jump from 4 months old to now…1 year old. She’s perfect. And feisty. And funny. And I love her so much. As I was editing the […]

Throughout the whole Jolee’s Journey with the Bottle…I have remained cautiously optimistic about the whole situation. She’s taken a bottle and then not taken a bottle and then taken a bottle again. I hoped this was the end of everything. I hoped she was really going to take a bottle forever. Well, not forever, but […]

This is the week we have been waiting for! I’ve been particularly excited for this week because I will be towards the end of the first trimester, I get another ultrasound, and I will find out more about my cyst. We still have a baby! I was so excited. As soon as the ultrasound tech […]

Pregnancy Week 12

Some exciting changes for Week 11. Today, Scott starts a new job. It was expected, but unexpected at the same time. He is going to work at Bachman Chevrolet, which is where he worked at prior to Montgomery Chevrolet. He worked at Bachman for about 8 years I believe. He left there because of some […]

Pregnancy Week 11

Not too much new to report this week. Still feeling progressively better. I did however have a night that I could eat grilled chicken plain. Scott fixed it for himself and I felt like I could stomach it. While I was able to eat it, I had to bury it in my rice and mix […]

Pregnancy Week 10

I am continuing to feel progressively better which is nice, but also worrisome because I instantly think it’s going to be a miscarriage. I find myself having more energy, but still having food aversions. Chicken has been the worst food aversion. I used to eat it every single day. Now the thought, the smell, the […]

Pregnancy Week 9

Week 8 is the week I have been waiting for. We get to see if there is really a baby. And…there is! All measurements were correct. We got to hear the heartbeat, 178. Doctor said everything with the baby looked to be okay, so far.   But….there is always a “But” and it’s really frustrating. […]

Pregnancy Week 8

  The fatigue continues. I am constantly wiped out. I literally fall asleep on the couch every night at 9:00 p.m., then I get up and go to bed whenever Scott goes around 10:00 p.m. or 10:30 p.m. I have pretty much felt terrible this whole week. Not really nauseous, just so incredibly tired. Scott […]

Pregnancy Week 7

Week 5 has been completely different than week 4. Big time not feeling good. Never to the point where I feel like I’m going to get sick, but definitely nauseous.  My boobs are super achy and feel huge. Still extremely tired. A couple of nights, I didn’t sleep very well. Also already had to get […]

Alright so things about week four that have been exciting….fatigue. So damn tired 24/7. It sucks. I am usually go, go, go and now I’m like no, no, no. Other than that, I’m okay and do not feel much different. Something somewhat off topic, I am so ashamed to say that I have not been […]
