mmmm chex mix!!

So I sit here at work eating a bag of Chex Mix... I believe this is my first craving! I have eaten so much chex mix in the last week its hard to believe, unless your DH who has to go get me a bag on his way home from work! I love it, and cant get enough of it

So I'm trying to eat better with the baby on the way. I'm a junk food junkie and its not good for me or little bean sprout so I'm cutting back. My mom since finding out she is going to be a grandmother has become my food police! But I'm grateful because I know I don't eat well and not its just not about me anymore...

Our first OB appointment is on Tuesday and I can't wait! I want to see if we see the heartbeat and get to see our little sprout! GAHH so excited!

Starting to feel real!

So its been about a week since we found out that we are expecting! It feels real now, I cant wait to go to the Dr. next week to hopefully see the heartbeat of our little one. I know I will break down and cry if we do get to hear it. My family is so thrilled, my mom and I went to BRU over the weekend to price cribs! I wanted to buy the whole store, but I didnt. I just bought a few baby books. I got Frankie one and he has been reading it too....its so cute he calls me to tell me what he read and what the baby is doing now and how its developing!

Cant believe its Aug 17th!

All I can say is wow, this summer is flying! Seems like yesterday it was my wedding day and the begining of summer, and now its almost my birthday. DH and I are enjoying our summer. We went to Hershey Park on Saturday which was awesome. Went on some crazy crazy rides! My aunt was so cute, she turns to my mom as we were waiting for my younger cousins to get off a kiddie ride as says" Hey maybe next year we will be pushing around a stroller!"

Our new apartment is almost in order finally. We have to paint the kitchen and unpack the last of the odds and ends boxes, but other then thats its now our home. Now just working on the baby part. Today is CD29. I go crazy with phantom signs. I have a cramp, I get a headache blah blah..... Its my first cycle off BCP so my body is just adjusting to being off I guess. I did buy a prenatal pill, which BTW are HUGE, a horse pill if I have ever seen it.

Fun weekend

So this weekend was great!

Saturday I spent the day with my mother in the city. We weren't sure what we were going to do but we went anyway. We tried to get tickets to see HAIR again, but we didn't make the lotto. SO we went to see " Julie& Julia" which was amazing! Really go see it if you get the chance. Sunday was DH and I 6 year anniversary together. I cant believe its been that long! I guess time does fly when you having fun.

Yesterday I had a small family reunion in Six Flags which was awesome. It was about 100 degrees about, but we still had a great time on all the ride and food! We are doing it all over again on Saturday as we are going to Hershey park! CANT WAIT...we love amusement parks!

Now on to my TTC journey... I went off the pill and we are not charting right now, kinda taking it as it comes. I have been tracking my CM. I tested on Sunday which is way early. I think it brought me back to reality and made me realize that not everyone gets pregnant right off the pill as my mother would like to think. So I think that AF should be here on the 17 if I am still on a 28 say cycle. Who know since I just went off the pill, so I stocked up on OPKs and HPTs just to be on the safe side

Happy Tuesday....NOT

Well we moved this weekend into our new apartment! Its really nice and big and we can grow into it, which is better then out of an apartment right? At first I broke down when moving out of our old place. It was the first apartment I had with my husband so I felt a loss, plus it took me so long to get used to that one! This one is MUCH bigger and I feel like we are not living there because there are so many empty rooms right now. But I guess I will get used to it like I did the other apartment, just will take time like everything else in life.

Outside my job this morning they were cleaning the side walk and I slipped and fell. Im wearing a skirt today and Im pretty sure all of downtown NYC saw my undies this morning! So today didnt get off to the greatest start, hopefully it will get better!
