Falling For You by Colbie Caillat

Don’t know but I think I maybe
Fallin’ for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe I should
Keep this to myself
Waiting ’til I
Know you better
I am trying
Not to tell you
But I want to
I’m scared of what you’ll say
So I’m hiding what I’m feeling
But I’m tired of
Holding this inside my head
I’ve been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya

I don’t know what to do
I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don’t know what to do
I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you

As I’m standing here
And you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
And we start to dance
All around usI see nobody
Here in silence
It’s just you and me
I’m trying
Not to tell you
But I want to
I’m scared of what you’ll say
So I’m hiding what I’m feeling
But I’m tired of
Holding this inside my head
I’ve been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don’t know what to do

I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don’t know what to do
I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you

Oh I just can’t take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spinning out
I’ve been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don’t know what to do
I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don’t know what to do

I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you
I can’t stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now I just can’t hide it
I think I’m fallin’ for you

Baby Names

One of my friends works in a job where there is constant contact with the public. When you work a job like this you come across interesting names. Before we were even preggers she started making a list of these interesting names for us.

Let's see what she has come up with....

Girl Names:

Curvy
Heavenly
Love(Joy)
Sassalee (“Sassy”)
Tyashia
Jewelia
Shaki
Morticia
Secret
Angelic

Boy Names:

Shadeed
Destin
Caron
Devrea
Edin
Qwamane
Cartrail
Rickquille
Tizaya
Deryq
Oasis
Luckese

So many great options? How will we ever choose? Actually, hubby is much more traditional so there is NO way anything like this would ever fly.

PS I am not even bothering to do spell check on this post.

No Pizza Cheese For You

A few weeks back one of my girlfriends came over for dinner to celebrate my birthday. She was going to pick us up something from Town Spa Pizza and then head to my place. We figured we would eat in and watch a chick flick. I told her I would call it in since she was getting.

Here is how the phone order conversation played out:

Me: Hi I would like to place an order for pick up.

TS: Sure, what would you like.

Me: I would like a BBQ chicken pizza and a garden salad with pizza cheese on it with italian dressing on the side.

TS: Oh, I don't know if we can put pizza cheese on a salad. Please hold.

Me: (I'm thinking seriously? You are a pizza joint and you can't put pizza cheese on a salad)

TS: Oh, I'm sorry we can't do that but we do have feta cheese so you could get a greek salad.

Me: I CANNOT EAT FETA BECAUSE I AM PREGNANT! ROAR!

TS: Umm, well we can give you a greek salad without the feta.

Me: THEN WOULDN'T THAT JUST BE A DAMN GARDEN SALAD IF THERE IS NO FETA.

TS: Umm, yes it would be. Ah, do you still want the garden salad.

Me: YES, ROAR!

I did feel bad for yelling at the girl but seriously come on.

Sensitive Nose

I do not remember the exact week it happened but small little smells turned into horrible smells that made me want to die. It has gotten better but it still bothers me.

- We bought new couches from Jordans, well technically we bought a new couch and the floor model love seat. The love seat I am fine with, its the damn new couch. It has new couch smell and I do not like it. Yuck. Many times I refuse to sit on it because of the smell. Now my husband has assured me there is not smell but he still sits with me on the love seat when we watch TV. Awww.

- The fridge. God, why. We have cleaned out the fridge, put odor absorbers in there and made sure all the food in there is in good condition. With all my tries the fridge still bothers me. Many times I take a big breath, open the door and quickly grab what I need and then slam the door shut. This has been my routine for a while now.

- My hubby's breath. Now before I go on it's not bad .. I'm not talking morning breath. I'm talking about when I am sleeping and he rolls over and starts breathing on me at night. I hate his hot breath on me. I usually help push him over so he rolls to the other side and problem solved. I just don't like being breathed on.

I know, I know I am weird but at least I can admit it.

We Are Pregnant

Oh, I have wanted to write that on this little blog for so long and I finally get too. Woo Hoo.

Let me start with a little background information for everyone:

1. This was a planned pregnancy.
2. Lucky for us it only took 2 months of trying.
3. We found out on August 22nd and took two pregnancy tests to make sure it was true.
4. We are both so happy and excited as this is our first pregnancy.
5. We wait a few weeks to tell people and told our parents on Labor Day weekend when we had them all together. I had little onsies made up that stated "I love my Papa" and "I love my Grammy" for my parents and "I love my Grandpa" and "I love my Nana" for hubby's parents. We wrapped up the gifts separately and handed them out. It was a very exciting time.
6. The first trimester I have been so sick. I mean I see the toilet more then I see my hubby. It's been pretty bad but I am hoping it will get better.
7. We have had two ultrasounds so far. The first one looked like a spot of dust on the screen and the second one really looked like a baby. Eeekk.
8. We are planning on waiting and being surprised on the gender. I think it will be amazing at the end of all that pushing to hear "It's a Girl" or "It's a Boy".
9. I think its a girl.
10. I could not have gotten through the past few weeks without my hubby. He has truly been my rock.

Friday

Dear Friday,

I have missed you so much! It seems like forever since I have last seen you. Please do not stay away so long .. I just cannot take it. You should really visit more often.

Love you,
Moi

Pumpkin Brownies

I made some easy to cook pumpkin brownies for work yesterday morning and they came out fabulous. I am glad I made a double batch because there are barely any left.

Double batch:
2 boxes of Betty Crocker brownie mix (or whatever is on sale)
1 can pure pumpkin
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
1 1/2 tablespoons of nutmeg
2 eggs

Mix together and then pour into a 8 x 13 glass pan (well that's what I did). First, I sprayed it was a little Pam. I baked them on 350 for about 50 mins.

They came out moist and delicious. It was a nice blend of pumpkin and chocolate.

Just Right

Have you seen these cute little mini cups of ice cream from Haagen-Dazs? They are adorable and actually quite filling. This already predetermined size is super helpful for the ice cream junkie like me. If I buy a gallon of ice cream I would probably inhale 2 or 3 large scoops of ice cream in a matter of minutes; however, with the mini's you know its all you have so you enjoy it and make it last. I am a huge fan .. although how do I keep them a secret from the hubby?

Burning the Calories

So yesterday I sat down at the computer with my breakfast. I splurged and got a yummy cinnamon chip muffin which was about 12 Weight Watcher points but hey you need to live a little and I have been avoiding them for long enough. Yesterday was the day. While checking some emails and catching up on life I look at a link that my girlfriend Kim sent. Check out this awesome video.


This is the jump robe video and all I can say, and all she could say, was Holy Shit. As I watched this video I felt the calories from my muffin just float away. Seriously, I do not think you can watch an energetic video like this and gain weight .. it is just not possible.

In fact, I think I have a new exercise regiment now. Watch this first thing every morning and feel the pounds fall right off. It's a good theory, right?



That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Hello little blog

Dear blog,

I am so sorry for ignoring you lately. Things have been so busy that I have gotten caught up in all the commotion. I know, that't not an excuse but I will try to be better. So how have you been? Hopefully you have been doing well without me for a bit but I will try to be better.

Thanks for your understanding,
Moi

Loving and hating

Love: Watching Football games on Sundays .. like all 3 games.
Hate: The fact that it eats away one whole day on the weekend.

Love: The crisp fall air and needing an extra blanket at night.
Hate: When I get out of a nice hot shower to freeze as I quickly dry off.

Love: Halloween Parties.
Hate: Trying to find a cool costume. So many to choose from its hard to decide.

Love: When my cat runs from the side door to the front door to the couch so she can look out the window when chasing a bird.
Hate: That when I call her she hardly ever comes.

Love: Clean clothes hanging from my closet hangers.
Hate: What usually happens .. clean clothes that are folded but sit in my laundry basket for a week or more.
