someone pinch me!

I am soo proud of my dog! Haha. Ever since I got her she's been going into the kennel ANY time Justin and I leave the house. Oh yeah wait a minute...if your going to complain about me kenneling her -no one cares. But anyways shes getting a little older now, and I haven't cleaned up dog pee or poop in my house since Vega left. And Justin told me before he left for the field that sometimes he leaves her out if hes just running to the gas station. So one day I tested her when I took him to work, thats probably 30 mins or so...she did great. So yesterday I was feeling bad because I have been leaving a lot this week so I decided while I went to my appointment I'd let her stay out. She did AMAZING!:) I mean she did chew up some trash I left on the counter, which is funny because I had it in a pile and said I need to take this out before I leave...and totally forgot. It was just a bag and a box. She always gets paper and chews on it, even when Im home, so that didn't make me mad at all, weird dog haha. Then I decided to let her out when I went to the PX..again amazing! So then AGAIN I trusted her for about 4 hours when I went to dinner ...again perfect:) Soo I think Im going to stop forcing her to go in her kennel all the time. If Im going to be gone for a super long time without being able to check on her Ill still put her in the kennel, but its so nice to know for now at least, I can leave her free...as long as I make sure my house is clean haha. Its so amazing how fast shes grown up:(

BTW this is funny, I was thinking as I was typing that all out. If you have ever met me, you know when I talk I TALK...and my stories drag on forever...I just realized I do the same thing in my blogs hahhaa. So major props to people who actually read these haha.

Anyways -So yesterday I had a appointment. And SOOO WEIRD. Last month when I had my appointment he said at the end, next time we will find out the sex. SOOO I went in assuming HEY we will find out the sex...well I drag Jena along, because I didn't wanna go alone LOL. and suddenly they put us in a back room, with no ultrasound...Im like hmm? So Jena takes Wes to go pee, and while out there asks the nurse about the ultrasound...they said Im not getting one so she waits in the waiting room. Well in comes my doctor with the doppler, so I asked.. um I thought we were finding out the sex this appointment, its okay if we don't but you said last time we were? So he goes we can, and takes me to another room....then he leaves while the machine comes on and the nurse says Im sorry I didn't know, I said I dont think he knew either LOL. So he does this SUPER quick ultrasound tells me its a girl, and that was that LOL. Well durning he said 'it grew', mind you my doctor has a CRAZY accent..so I heard ITS GONE. and I was like WHAT and he said it again I was like oh my gosh I thought you said the baby was gone LOL. It was so scary...well then he just looked in between her legs, said she was a girl and turned off the machine. Then he tells the nurse 4 weeks, and told me we will have an official ultrasound then. I was like wow so weird haha. Well then he asks me when my baby shower is and I told him Dec and hes like OK, we will check again to make sure shes still a girl. weird haha. oh and he said my placenta is still low, but again said hes not worried. I asked if we could have sex, and he said yeah but not hard LOL. But seriously the way he said it looked like he didn't want to say yes....soo idk=/ But Justins in the field anyways so it doesn't really matter lol.

So now Im not really sure what to do, because I dont want to keep having 4,000 ultrasounds. Even though seriously all of my ultrasounds at my doctors office have been under 5 mins I swear lol. He just checks to make sure shes okay and thats that. Now at the hospital the two times I had ones that were a little longer. And then the one from the college was like 45 mins long...but Ive heard too many ultrasounds can be bad so Im kind of worried=/ Because my next appointment is Nov 18th, well I have to have my invitations mailed out at least a week before that... and how am I supposed to do that if I dont know if shes officially a girl LOL. So I may to the college in a few weeks, like 2 or 3 maybe...just to get that triple check LOL since I am still so early on...and that day just go mail out my invitations. Because I really don't wanna send out invites saying ITS A GIRL and then have to call everyone or something saying ohhh we were wrong his penis just took 10000 years to grow hahah. But then I might just say eh whatever shes a girl, and deal with it if it happens. I dont really know yet. haha.

However, Im so excited..yesterday I called around and glad a place booked for my baby shower:) The Watervliet library. I was kindddd of worried when I couldn't find their number ANYWHERE. And I was starting to think they didn't exist haha. I called coloma and they told me to rent their room it was 100 bucks, and 50 deposit, um no way haha. So I called around a few more places and yeah no. So then my friend Amanda told me watervliet was only 50 and to call them...so I googled a little harder and found the number. Even better its $50 but $20 of that is deposit, sooo its really only $30 which is awesome. Since I thought for sure it was going to be $50..Im happy:) Then I was talking to Sandra and my mom about the shower and I just got sooo excited..I can't believe it. Im finally getting my dream come true, this is really happening..someone pinch me lol. I can't wait to go home and see everyone and show off my baby belly:)) LOL. 

As I said earlier Justins in the field..he will be gone till next friday, one week left:) And then after that hes gone till about thanksgiving but home every weekend so its not too bad. His SGT let him use his phone to call me yesterday just to see how the appointment was. :) Im like STILL A GIRL haha. And then he was so cute, well how is the baby, how are you feeling...lol. Im like I have a cold but thats all, and hes like thats not gonna effect the baby is it? I think its starting to get more real for him, and the fact that he heard Im sick over the phone and hes not there to physically see it probably bothered him, because if I was hope I know he would be telling me to stuck it up:P haha.

Wellll...thats all I feel like writing<3
