A Long Night and Rainy Day

I had a long day yesterday! After working yesterday I went straight to babysit 3 very cute little kids and left there about 10:30. I called my mom on the way home to say hello and she informed me that my cousin Jennifer was in the hospital and probably going to have the baby pretty soon. My dog had not been let out since 6:30 in the morning so I hurried home and let him out and headed right back to the hospital. Around 1:00 in the morning we got to see the new bundle of joy! He was 8lbs. 6oz and healthy. He was born around 11:30 so no Halloween baby....we were very happy for that. I left the hospital and headed back home after a long night.
Of course the night was not quite over. I got in a road block which might not seem like a big deal but not having your license on you or an insurance card at 2 in the morning made me a little more suspicious to them. After the cop asked where my license and insurance card was and not having it he asked why I was out so late and had I been drinking. I told him about a new baby and he said congrats! I was finally home at 2:30.
So needless to say I woke up at 12 o'clock this afternoon to a rainy day. I went out and ran some errands that needed to get done and had a nice quiet lunch at Panara Bread. I then went to Barnes and Noble and got a vanilla latte. I came home and got in some comfy clothes and ate some leftover cake.... It has been a nice day.

I had a pic to put up today but still having trouble trying to post pictures so hopefully there will be more soon.

This is the best dog in the world with the best toy in the world!!

Nerve Racking Doctor's Appointment

Well today marked our 2nd doctor's appointment. I will start by saying that everything is good but up to the point of finding that out I wanted to cry...along with Matt. After waiting 45minutes to see the doctor we were very excited about hearing the heart beat.
The doctor came in and did the "Doppler" thing where you can hear the heart beat. After 30 seconds of not hearing it he said, "it sometimes takes a few minutes..." After 4 minutes Matt piped in and said "does it normally take this long"... no response from the doctor. A total of 5 awkward minutes later of silence he tells us we need to go to another room. I wanted to ball my eyes out at this point because I knew something was not right.
We get in there and immediately I lay down and he does not even close the door to the room. He does a sonogram and there was our beautiful baby with a strong heart beat of 160 bpm. He said because of my bladder and placenta he could not hear it using the first device.
Matt and I were finally able to take a breath of fresh air and I left there emotionally exhausted!

It's My First!

Hello to the one person that somehow managed to click on a link they had no idea about and happen to find this......
Well my name is Jillian and I have just decided to embark on this new piece of my life. I did not major in English so sorry for any typos or misspellings. So if you happen to be an English major I am not sure if you will be able to follow my blog without cringing at least once during a sit down.
I am 25 years old and have been married to the love of my life for 2 years. Matt and I dated for 7 years before getting married so as he would say when someone ask how long we have been together, 9 years!! We have a Siberian Husky, Bodie and a little one on the way...
I am officially 11 weeks pregnant today. This is something I have wanted my entire life. As a little girl I would carry around a doll that I still have to this day. Matt and I are sooo excited about this new part of our life and we look forward to every appointment that we have. Tomorrow is our 2nd appointment to see how everything is going.
I also have a new joy in my life, my niece Nora Joy! She was born October 5 2009, 8lbs 3oz. She is healthy and happy, just like her gushing parents. My sister lives in North Carolina but is here for a little bit while her husband is in Egypt with the Army.
Although that is a big part of my life I also have an amazing family that is a very important in my life. I have 3 sisters, my youngest, Lauren, with the baby, Megan a flight attendant, and Callie my oldest who is a buyer. My mom is the most amazing woman who I look up to everyday and my dad who always keeps us on our toes.
I love every part of my life and can't wait to let y'all have a peek in!
