It's been a while...

So...from the title you can assume this is gonna be a long one. I stopped blogging a while ago, I don't exactly remember why. But with a new baby boy on the way(yep that's right..), I figured now would be a good time to start again.

So, where did I leave off? Right, Steve and I were moving... Well we did move. We found a nice place in Nampa. We had a roommate and things seemed to be going rather smoothly. We had an awesome Christmas and New Years. Although it was my first New Years Eve as a 21 year old Steve and I decided to stay in, I wasn't feeling so well... Well there was a reason or that...SHOCKER...I was pregnant...I couldn't believe it when I saw those two pink lines...Steve and I weren't trying so it came as quite a shock...Well I immediately dismissed the test as a dud and promptly went to the store to purchase another test. That one too? Could it be? Two possible defective pregnancy tests? No no no, I just left the pee on it too long... I was in denial. I took 8 tests all together. 7 were positive and one had an error message(see I told you defective). I went to the Dr and she confirmed my suspicions... I was indeed pregnant. We didn't tell anyone at first. I waited a few weeks and things progressed so we decided to tell our families. They were all so very excited. This being both of our parents first grandchild. Steve and I were getting used to the idea and were pretty confident we could handle the stress of a new baby. When something rather tragic happened...

I got FIRED. Yep. Me. Canned...I was really rather pissed about it. I had worked at an Orthopedic Surgeons office for just over a year, when they decided to cut me loose. The office politics there were absolutely ridiculous. Now I am much happier that I am not there. But when it happened, I was really rather distraught. They gave me a bogus reason when they "let me go" and when I questioned them, they danced around the truth. I filed for unemployment and had to dispute everything. It was quite a headache. They said horrible untrue things about me and my job performance. Which ended up not helping them...I won my case and have been hanging out ever since...I tried to find another job. But no one is really to keen on hiring a pregnant girl. So Steve has been working hard for the two of us. Now with all things considered. New baby, no job...We needed a new living arrangement. Unfortunately we had to move back in with my Mom. It's not ideal but, the help will come in handy soon.

So I guess here we are...I am 33 weeks pregnant. I am due September 19...It seems like I have been pregnant forever. I am sure everyone says that though. We are having a little boy. His name is going to be Judah. No ideas on a middle name yet. We are really excited to see him for the first time. I can't wait to see who he looks like. Well I have rambled on long enough...

Ghetto Shower

Last night I couldn't sleep...Mostly because the last few days my schedule has been way off. I was sick on Tuesday and slept most of the day so I was up all night. Then Wednesday I worked the early shift, if you will, at my work. So I went to sleep at 2am and was up at 5:30am and at work by 6:45am. Not terrible but not ideal. So by the end of the day I was very sleepy and possibly loosing my mind. I came home determined to stay up to get back on my normal schedule. But shortly after dinner I fell asleep on the couch. I woke up around 9pm feeling much better and very awake. Steve and I hung out, watched some movies, you know basic Wednesday night stuff. I finally felt sleepy around 2am again. I went to get into bed, then realized I would be so tired in the morning and I should take my shower that night. So I got out of bed and went to turn the water on so it would be nice a hot for me. We live in a kind of older home. The shower nozzle has been on my list to fix but, with us moving out at the end of the month it has been put on the back burner to everything else. Anyways, I went back in the bathroom and got in the shower. I tried to adjust the shower head, and then it happened. The whole thing came off the wall. With a fairly loud thud I might add. I started panicking, water was shooting out from the wall like Old Faithful. Steve quickly came to the door asking if everything was okay. I quickly responded yes as I frantically tried to piece together the shower head. It was no use. I let him in to see what all the commotion was. He tried to fix it as well, but it was cracked beyond repair. So now we have ghetto shower with water that sprays out of the wall. Tonight we are going to fix it, but last night I had to use the ghetto shower...I felt ridiculous.

Moving

So most of you know, we live in my mom's old place...She decided a year ago to move out with her boyfriend...Which in turn made me responsible for her house?? anyways... Just recently she has decided to move home for myriad of reasons...most of you can probably guess. So Steve and I are getting the boot. We have been looking high and low for a place for us. We haven't had much luck. I did however find an adorable house in Star...yeah that's right Star. It is fairly cheap and super cute. I hope moving will be better for us. It will be a nice change to have a place of our own. But moving is ever so stressful.

New Do

So some of you know. Steve has had very long hair, for a very long time. Ten years plus, I am told. So I have been thinking, the guy needs a change. You can't rock the same style for ever. So last weekend he took the plunge. (I am horrible at this blogging thing...) We were sitting on the couch, I was looking at a magazine and saw some awesome hair styles, then the thought came to me. I asked and he agreed. I was a hair stylist at one time. But I have not done hair in a while, so needless to say I was a bit nervous. And it is my boyfriend, what if I mess him up...Oh goodness, anyways. I got in there and was about half way through and realized that my idea of what I wanted his hair to look like and what it was actually doing were two different things. I started to panic a bit, but I quickly found a solution. His hair turned out better than I had expected. I went with this 50's style greaser look. You know combed back and all debonair like. He looks so different, and so handsome!
