So Sweet!!

Not sure if i have informed you all that a few months ago our Starbucks got a new manager. Well lets just say she has made the last few months of work stress free and enjoyable. I have been very grateful for the change especially since I was in my Third Trimester and the manager before had no sympathy for me being pregnant.

Well yesterday was my last day of work until the end of my maternity leave!! I am a little sad, very glad and feel a bit guilty. I am sad because I have some really awesome co workers and for the fact that it gets me out of the house and something to do everyday. I am very glad because i am not sure how my body let me work as long as it did. My 4 hour shifts towards the end were starting to feel like 12 hours. I feel a bit guilty because i will have all this time off and my poor Husband will only have a few days off to spend with baby right away. i could not imagine going back to work like 4 days after baby arrives, i would miss him so much! Soo i am guessing i will just have to bundle the little bean and visit daddy at work! =)

So like i said yesterday was my last day, i opened with manager, she got out of the car with a present, sooo sweet. She got me [well baby] a 4 pack of onsies and some really cute jammies!

Then while i was on my break my co worker called me up front saying someone is here to see me. It was Marcia, one of our regulars, comes in everyday, always asks how i am doing, how baby is doing, what i am having, what is his name, how to save money at target, what the governor is doing now haha, how my husband and i are doing, what we did for the different holidays ect... And i always give her an extra shot of espresso on the house =P

ANYWAYS she had a gift for baby too!! I had opened it later when i got home and was SHOCKED! She had got baby 2 things we needed still of our registry [which aparently is still open], one thing we had to buy because my baby showers were over and still needed it, sad because i really loved the one i registered for. And a bottle fridge pack, which i am going to need when i go back to work! Plus a gift card to babys r us! WAAAAY too much, but such a blessing!

Soo as much as i like to complain about the customers at work [sorry some are just so stupid], there are really some awesome customers that i am going to miss seeing everyday! its also nice to know that they will miss me too while i am away!

Thankyou to everyone who has helped out during my pregnancy, My MOM and DAD for EVERYTHING you guys do that you know you dont have to do! =) Alica, for the maternity clothes with out them i would be in shorts in the 40degree evenings, for advice, for help, for nursing covers and all the blankets to come! To Lisa Schoch for all the wonderful clothes from their church to help baby! And to everyone else who was sweet enough to bless Rod and I with things essential for a new baby!

now off to dr appt! hope she has some news that baby is heading out soon!

DAUGHTRY CD!!!

Yea this is not baby related! Which is totally fine because I do actually have other things to talk about. Though since being pregnant people seem that is all I want to talk about, now don't get me wrong I love talking about my lil bean! But I still am human and need conversation haha!

SO today I got the new Daughtry CD in the mail!



I have been a fan of Chris Daughtry since his 1st audition on American Idol! My brother Evan and I voted for him, and watched him get voted off =(

We have also gone to see him live mulitple times, Jimmy Kimmel Live, OC Fair, House of Blues! I tried to get Rod to take me last year when he was here in Fresno, we just didn't have the funds for it...otherwise...=)

♥ JB &LB

Needless to say, I am a FAN! sooo if you see tickets for a tour date near my neck of the woods feel free to buy Rod and I tickets! =P

2 Year Anniversary!

[too pregnant to go out of town]

Even though in January Rodney and I will have been a couple for 5 years! (WOWZA) We have just celebrated our 2 year Wedding Anniversary!
i informed Rodney yesterday that it was my plan to go to Hawaii this year for our anniversary [since i worked at the airport....cheap flights] But that because I got pregnant and quit the airport, and now that i am about to pop any day that we couldn't go there this year! =P

We didn't start the Monday any different, we got up, went to the Dr. [as this is my weekly event now], we drove to old town Clovis to see if the restaurant Rod might take us to was still there, then we went on a hunt for some inexpensive curtains for the Baby's room. His room is the brightest room in the house. We ended up at Target, of course, and we got some cute green curtains that match his room =) Also Rod was starving [whats new?] so we stopped at Panera Bread for a while and just hung out =)

Then we came home, Rod did the pile of dishes, which i told him was not a fun anniversary activity, but he proceeded to tell me he wanted me to be able to relax tomorrow and not worry about them =) [[so sweet]] So I decided to straighten up the living room, we had Grilled Cheese for lunch [romantic, be jealous] then we put up baby curtains and finally hung up the picture his Mamie made him =)Then we ran over to our apartment office to check out the Ping Pong stuff because I challenged Rod to a game! I won the first two, he won the second two [first to 15], the tie breaker game came down to 14 to 14 and I WON!!!!!!! yeaa Rod lost to a Pregnant Woman! =P
Then Rodney took me to Logan's Roadhouse, where they have the most amazing rolls ever! There we hung out, talked, played a game I had printed out a couple days ago,then ended the evening at Starbucks to get a hot chocolate [it was so cold last night]
We didn't do anything extravagant but it was the best way to spend our anniversary! I enjoyed being with my best friend all day, talking and laughing!

Now on to yet another year which will bring many challenges, stresses, and changes that we are all strapped in a ready to take on!
BRING IT ON LOGAN MALIIK BUTLER! WE ARE READY!!! =P
[mommy isnt sure she is actually ready to go through the pain but wants you here anyway]

38 weeks with Logan

[yea i am massive, didn't realize i was so big until i saw this photo =P]

Logan is due December 5th

[[mom posted this on her facebook and i think it would be fun if people played along! so DO IT!]]

When Alicia was pregnant with Cayden, we all picked a date we thought he would be born! Now Jill will be 36 weeks tomorrow and so pick a day and time (for tie breaker only) and maybe Logan's Mamie will send a prize!

mom chose November 28th at 2 PM

I choose December 1st @ noon

Alicia said November 28th as well but hasnt picked a time

and the rest of you say........
