A Week in the Life

Soo, David got home on the seventh. He and my mom made it back in time to watch the Superbowl. And as I'm sure we're all aware, the Colts lost. 'Twas a sad day. But David being home made up for everything. =]

The next day (Monday) I skipped school. I had a doctor's appointment that morning anyway, so I would have only made it for one class. Instead I went to my appointment, then came home and went out to eat at Red Lobster with David and my mom while the boys were still at school. Then we went to the mall and looked around a bit. I got my first two nursing bras. Aha.

Tuesday I had school. It was an orange day, so it was rather uneventful.

Wednesday I didn't have school cause it was an advisory half day. I went to the mall again with David to get some stuff, like my mom's Valentine's Day present and a battery for the car locker thingy. We also went to Best Buy for a new computer tower (which is reeeally nice) and the Commissary for supper.

Thursday I had school again. Everyone in Early Childhood Development was surprised to see me. They all thought I had had my baby since I wasn't there Monday. Haha. It was humorous. I guess they had called my house and everything.

Friday I didn't have school again. Four day weekend for President's Day! I went over to Sarah's house to see Nathan while she was with Josh at his parents'. We didn't really do much. Chatted, watched a movie. Then I went home and Sarah texted me not long afterward asking if I wanted to stay the night at Nathan's cause she had to take him home. So, Sarah, Josh, and I all stayed the night at his house. We went to Walmart first and bought Zombieland and Mad Gab. So, we played Mad Gab (which is a great game!) and watched Zombieland. We were up until like, 1 or 2 in the morning. So, Sarah and I went to bed cause we were tired. The guys stayed up until 4 or 5. Those two are complete night owls.

Nathan's sister, Naomi, made us breakfast when we got up in the morning. She is such a sweetie. =] Then Sarah was ready to head home, so we said bye to everyone, and she dropped me off. Shortly after that, I went with my family to a barbecue at Erika's house. We have Mad Gab too, so I said we should bring it, and we all played over at Erika's. It was pretty great. ^_^

Yesterday, my family, Tausha and Kaylee, and Amanda and Erika and their kids all went to Chuck E. Cheese for Valentine's Day. It was crazy in there. It was so packed and hot and there were kids flying everywhere. I got to play some games though, and I won the jackpot twice on my favorite one. =] But there wasn't much to get with my tickets, so I just got a candy necklace and gave the rest to David. Haha. They helped him out though. If I hadn't given him mine, he wouldn't have had enough for the game he got. :p Then around 8:30, David took my brothers and I to the PX and let us all pick out something as a Valentine's present. I got 5 SimCity games that were on sale for $20 altogether and a little protection box for my Zune. I thought that was really nice of him. =]

Today I went with my mom for a meet 'n' greet with Bean's pediatrician. She was really nice, laid back, and down to earth. I like her a lot. She also has two adorable therapy dogs. They were soo cute. =] But I think I'll like that place a lot.

So, in good news, yesterday morning I had my last cigarette, and I haven't had one since. This is the longest I've ever gone of my own free will without one. I think I may finally be able to quit this time!

And my second piece of good news, Nate is coming in this Wednesday for the birth of Bean. Haha. At least, we're hoping Bean waits til then. I can pop any day now...

I'm pretty sure that's everything that has happened in the last week. I'm surprised I remembered it all! So, hopefully I will remember to write again soon. Niight.

Everything Happens in February

Everything that is, except getting my driver's license, which I succeeded at doing on the 30th last month. =] I could go into the finer details, but I'll just keep it short and sweet and admit that I barely passed. Haha.

The new semester at school started this Monday (the 1st). I've been driving to school every day since I don't have a fourth period either day - I need a way to get home. I have Early Childhood Education and Exploring Art 1 on blue days and Literature of a Changing America and Contemporary World Problems on orange days. And of course, I still have Calculus every day. =] Orange days have proven to be rather evil so far. They're a lot of work already, but they're pretty interesting.

Earlier this week (I don't recall what day), Sarah asked me to go over to her apartment to help her finish packing. So, I headed out there and wound up getting lost because I went out the wrong gate and ended up in Spanaway. I made my way back though and found the right gate and made it to Sarah's apartment. That pretty much sucked, but I can laugh about it now. Haha.

Then Thursday, Nate texted me and told me that he'll be able to come up here from the 17th to 28th. I told my mom, and ten minutes later she had the plane ticket purchased. She got a pretty good deal too - under $300 for a round trip (Indiana to Washington and back) on Southwest. So, he doesn't have to pay for baggage either. I'm super excited!

Then later that night, David told my mom that he got an early flight home for leave from Afghanistan. He's currently on his way home, and he should be here in the early afternoon on Sunday! He'll get to stay home for two weeks before going back. The whole family is excited for that! =]

And then, of course, I'm due the 20th this month. So, I've probably got the busiest month of my life ahead of me! So, this should be preeetty interesting.
