serious withdrawals.

please allow me to apologize dear classybroad_spaz.blogspot I have been neglecting you like crazy lately, not for a lack of things to talk about but for the lack of getting my lazy butt on the computer & chit-chatting with you. so updates! first we are now into our fourth month, second trimester with baby peanut (no new pictures yet) but we do have an appointment on Monday to see the doctor & find out exactly who this baby will begin to be (the sex) and get all of the results back from the bloodwork & other tests. so that is an exciting, scarey appointment. my dear beloved* had an accident at work about 10 days ago & crushsed three of his fingers in a machine & of course the night i decide "hey don't drive all the way home just stay at your parents tonight & rest" i get the call & he is on his way to the ER up at home, which is 30-40 minutes away! fabulous. so after a long night in the ER & lots of pain & blood my beloved* is sent home with serious bandages, stitches & meds. since then we have been enjoying his extra time off, we had a long weekend together over the holiday we did have lil snugglebutt aidan for a good portion of it; we hung out at my parents for a big bbq (which isn't normal for us we usually go to someone else's house chew & screw); went to my beloveds* family one night for a bbq & we took aidan to the zoo for the first time! which i personally absolutely love the zoo & i think aidan did as well, it was a gorgeous day too, not too hot or cold there was a nice breeze ah! it was just fabulous. and now i am back to work! working all weekend so my fellas will probably hang home & just hang, i hear it's suppose to be kind of icky out anyways so that works well & monday is the big appointment with the doctor. oh!! we did go on a tour as well of the maternity ward at the hospital where i will have this little peanut. i absolutely love the place! everything is private, secure, and just calming! there is a big tub i can get in & hang loose if i am stressed & need to relax during labor ( and when i say if i am stressed i really mean when i am stressed) my beloved* or "my coach" can come with me & play the soothing music we are working on for the labor & baby and rub my belly, i love when he rubs my belly! but i believe that is all to catch everyone up on this crazy life we are leading. but the purpose of the blog today, i do apologize wasn't just to chit-chat & catch up but for a purpose! for the past four years i have done a walk that a lot of people in boston somehow get involved with, it is called the "nstar's walk for the children's hospital of boston" it's either a 2 or 7 mile walk along the charles river (gorgeous setting) and we raise money & walk for the children's hospital. unfortunately, many of the walkers have been personally touched by the children's hospital & their fabulous staff & that is what gets a certain "click" to walk. i unfortunately had a sick cousin four years ago that spent a lot of time there & the staff that surronded my family was just absolutely amazing & even after the stay in the hospital they were & still are involved in our lives. so i walk every year now for my cousin & the other children, family members, friends that are in need to the services there. so i am hoping to get others to join me & walk (for those of you that know me know that the heat wave we have where it was hazy, hot & humid kicked my butt so i need lots of eyes on me & want more people to walk & raise money) so below is the website to donate right to me (thank you!) also on that same page on the right is a "REGISTER NOW" link to join me!

sunday.

so here in boston sunday means a rainy gloomy morning which if it does for others as it does for me it does not help me motivate myself in any way, i would just rather hang in my PJs all day watching DVR'd shows or movies but i now am waiting for my beloved* to get his ace out of the shower & ready to go, he always takes longer! it also means everything that needs to be done needs to be done before 7.30p that way we can all hurry home get comfortable and watch game 7 for the celtics! we need this to stay alive! so as i sit here waiting to being/end the day i came across just a few post secrets i enjoyed today, i am not sure if my sense of humor is changing since pregnancy but i am finding it harder & harder to pick post secrets i enjoy. well anyway here are the few i enjoyed.

apparently my beloved* feared for this his first time around but i am terrified i will have an ugly baby, i understand all babies are icky looking when they first are welcomed to the world but seriously what if my baby is "big-boned" or ugly? = (

i honestly did this in college, haha! good times.

while i do not have a husband overseas i have dear friends, actually someone i consider the best male guy friend i've ever had & i miss him dearly & worry for him everyday.

but that is all for today i guess fellow  bloggers. the shower has just stopped running so i can now finish getting myself ready & begin my day! happy sunday.

pictures, pictures, pictures

okay, so i am up way past my liking tonight. these 4p-12a shifts are kicking my butt. but being at my parents house for the night i couldn't just head to bed & pay no mind to the little green camera with tons of pictures on them i have been dying for since last year! so my fabulous father loaded them up on the laptop & i selected a few of the tons i have. there are the weezer concert pictures missing, i know ryan tomorrow i promise! but other than that i have all my pictures completely updated. LoL from last year until today. so here are some pictures of fun stuff we did/have been up to good night fellow bloggers.

these few are from the tree lighting/christmas lights 2008.

my favorite guys. my beloved* & aidan

my dad loves aidan & now we have our own on the way the fun will only grow.
after the tree lighting we went to the stone zoo, i love the lights they have there around xmas.

baby peanut*

so i haven't really said much in a bit about baby peanut* so two weeks ago i had all that first trimester blood-work done as well as the CVS testing (half blood-work, half ultrasound) no results! My doctor told me that if there was anything we needed to go over sooner rather than later she would call me & we would meet, if not then things are looking just as good as they have been & see will see me June 1st for another appt & another ultrasound! yay* this is the highly anticipated ultrasound where my wishes & dreams are confirmed that i will be having my blonde hair, blue eyed baby girl LoL yes, i have this baby girls' life completely planned out already & being that she is not living where i did younger; somerville, dorchester, even everett is going down hill i have high hopes she will be able to focus on the important things in her younger years. but! my beloved* & i have names picked out, we only have one for a lil baby boy, girls we have our middle name a definite but first names we have a list LoL i have in my blackberry a special note that says "keepers" so where-ever we are i jot it down & there we go the list is that much longer LoL we did decide on his favorite persons' name for the boys' middle name & my favorite lil lost gorgeous lady for a girls' middle name and the boys' first name i won't say just not to jinx it ( i really want my girl ) and i don't want anyone stealing it if we don't have our boy just yet. LoL but we have decided to tell the snugglebutt aidan after we find out what it is & after i have a calendar my mom suggested to help him count down the babies arrival so he is not asking "will the baby be here in 2 miminutes" LoL love him to death but that can drive anyone insane especially over 6 months! but baby peanut* is now 13 weeks & 1 day along, pretty much everyone we want to know around us knows, minus a few of my beloveds* people he wants to tell certain people face to face so he is making his way down to them & telling them very soon! so things are going very well with us. hopefully things continue this way & the things we are trying to get in order get in order for us & cause us lil stress, anxiety & just fall into place for us. my brother took a picture of one of the sonogram pictures i gave my mom & i wanted to post it so people can see, if anyone if paying attention LoL but this is my baby peanut* in all her glory. i love her to death already.

happy tuesday fellow bloggers*

big, relaxing weekend

so it was a long week, even though I did only work three days LoL. Guess 12 tubes of blood, sonograms, the news being completely public, tummy rubs & work can do that to a girl. but this weekend is all about me & what I would like (so my beloved* says) for it is my beeday & mother's day & apparently expecting mothers can celebrate & get presents too! yay. I honestly am looking forward to this weekend so much, relaxation baby! that is all I would like. My weekend actually began today; mani/pedi with Kaiti & Ryan (thank you for my expecting mom card & rose Kaiti) lunch & hanging with my beloved* tonight. We were suppose to be at the Red Sox game but long story short StubHub "doesn't guarantee" tickets, so we will be hanging out & going to see wolverine, nice toss up relaxing night! Then tomorrow is my actual beeday! yay. I have already received two presents; my beloved* got me tickets to see my most favorite band since forever The Offspring & Kolleen, Aidan, & Jeff gave me the cutest cupcake card (thank you guys)! I heart cupcakes & she knows it = ) tomorrow will be filled with sleeping in, cake, Margaritas (the restaurant not the drink LoL) and not sure after that but my beloved* says I get to pick what we do! I am stoked about Margaritas because up until now my first trimester has been kind of tough, nothing to complain about but I wasn't able to eat my usual favorite foods & I am now able to eat them & I get my Margaritas! Yay. Also, my dearest Val will be coming up too for cake, or to my moms location has yet to be decided. And then Sunday is Mother's Day, I believe we will venture down to Boston tomorrow & pass out mother's day presents then so me, expecting mom & our moms can just hang at home with our feet up & relax. Sounds good to me, a phone with loves should be good enough, we did see them the day before LoL we will see. But I am off for now, time to re-start the rest of my relaxation weekend. ciao* fellow bloggers. 

happy mother's day !! 

happy beeday to the many i share this weekend with.

LoL celebrations from beeday's past . . this year will def be me on the couch with my feet up. oh yeah! i can live with that one.

happy weekend everyone. boston weather should be mostly fabulous enjoy it, get out !

Manic Monday

So this morning I had yet another doctor's appointment; honestly all of these doctors appointments for me at least are crazy, I am rarely sick, rarely go to the doctors, and just hate the whole waiting in the waiting room, waiting in the actual exam room, and then waiting for lab people. blah! Lots of waiting & I am not very patient. But! in good news it is for good reasons, I am pregnant! 12 weeks today. Very exciting, my beloved* & I are stoked, we have yet to tell the snugglebutt Aidan for the whole waiting the 3 month period and know how do we word it, how will he react & when will the "is the baby coming in 2 miminutes" LoL will drive us insane. Altho my mom did mention making him his own calendar to countdown the babies' arrival, which I feel will work but I am not sure how long. LoL so there is the big news! We find out June 1st if we will be a mommy of a baby girl or boy of course I want a girl and he wants a boy! Altho I feel he already has a boy so we could do a girl now & a boy later? He isn't feeling that, LoL he needs another boy asap with me! LoL we'll see what happens. We have seen & heard the heartbeat already, heartbeat was at 170 which my great nursing staff at the doctor office said was perfect & everything seems to be right on track, we our first baby peanut picture, my "What to Expect when Expecting" book & journal so we are doing fabulously. But after 12 tubes of blood, finger prick, and a short nap I am exhausted & don't have much else to write about. Here are just a few of the Post Secrets I liked, I personally felt this week was tough. But this is what I got for ya.

i can not wait until i can say this, i drive about 45 minutes to work everyday. boo!

in the hotel where i work there is a japanese steakhouse & i love messing around with the old guys that work in there, HaHa they are awesome.

this is def how i feel about my beloved* & i know he feels about me.

well it has been a busy Monday & tomorrow will be just as busy; I have an ultra sound & an 8 hour shift to stand on my feet & deal with these nervous flyers (swine flu!) so good day fellow bloggers

pictures of Julie's mock wedding reception, or 2nd wedding reception to come. my baby brother took the camera & posted only the pictures he was in LoL
