Week 21!

Wow! Hard to believe that I am already so far into the second trimester...

So far I feel pretty good...I get alot of Braxton Hicks which I don't like and need to ask the specialist about, but other then that all is good...

I think I am in trouble. I have a gymnist in there and it never quits moving...

I am however, having a great deal of trouble sleeping...mostly because of the INDIGESTION. Soon I may be sleeping while sitting up....

I also have to get up to use the washroom three times a night...

Oh well....no rest for the wicked I guess.

Your Baby:

Your baby is still pretty active and continues to move all over in the amniotic fluid. However, towards the end of this trimester the baby will begin to settle, usually in a head down position. Your baby is beginning to show evidence of eyebrows and eyelashes and the hair on his scalp is much more visible. He wakes and sleeps in regular intervals, similar to what a newborn would do. This may be apparent to you in his movement patterns. He regularly ingests and absorbs large quantities of the amniotic fluid and excretes urine. Your baby is approximately 27-30 cm (10-10.5 inches) and weighs about three quarters of a pound.

Almost Friday!

Almost Friday.....

I can't wait. 17. Weeks. before mat leave......I was officially 20 weeks as of yesterday...baby is half way cooked!

I am on the countdown...

Maybe then I will get something done around my house....

but I doubt it.

I am complaining miserably this morning about the woes of pregnancy.....I have INDIGESTION. Not indigestion But INDIGESTION....the Raging kind, that wakes you up in the middle of the night, and forces you to get out of bed, and STAY UP HALF OF THE NIGHT. and then get up at 6am for work. I could use a good night sleep...but knowing Krystal, she will choose this week to go into labor.

There, I have felt sorry for me, and now it will be better.

The baby's room is starting to look like a nursery now though.....There is a crib, (donated by Mercy and Brenda), we have a stroller, and yesterday we bought this....

And we like it very much....

Is it Feb 07 yet?

What else?

Well, work is quiet, and so I am glad.

Monday night we had Women's Aglow,

http://www.reginaaglow.com/

and just to show the state of my pregnant and very hormonal mind....

This time, I remembered to plug in my guitar, BUT

I got to the end of the song we were singing AND

I forgot what I was singing, and started to laugh.

These things are starting to become routine....and people are starting to talk.....

However, we did have a very good speaker....

Her name was Kanta Sethi.

She told us how she came to be a Christian after being part of the Hindu religion for 28 years.

It was very interesting., and she also had a translater for the 30 Muslim women we had invited.

We all had a great time, and all the Muslim ladies danced around with flags while we sang, and later showed us some of their dances

Our theme was East Meets West,

and so we had some Samosas, and other foods that I can't remember the names of, but have had before. They came with HOT HOT sauce.....MMMMMMM

and then guess what I had all night....you got it.....

INDIGESTION.

I drove some of the teenage girls home,

and we played some popular Bolywood music (popular with the young girls from India and Africa)

LOUD. VERY LOUD.

We had fun.

Today it is raining. and I am happy because it is not 30 above out.

I am also happy because I will be home for the first night this week, and I can watch the season premiere of CSI.

I will even work on my worship list for ladies ministry Cori....

(and I will write a note, to read the music and plug in my guitar and not laugh in the middle of the songs)

and clean my house.

and we will see what else.!

Love ya!

Just wanted to try this.....is it me?

You're the pirate everyone else wants to throw in the ocean --

not to get rid of you, you understand; just to get rid of the smell.

You tend to blend into the background occaisionally,

but that's okay, because it's much easier

to sneak up on people and disembowel them that way.

Arr!

Does Brandy deserve our Mercy?????

I will be posting the results....(whahahahaha.....ha)

HEY!!!

Well hey there! This is Brandy speaking now and Technically I wasn't tied up; I was wrapped up in saran wrap so I'll tell you the story. It was one cold night ... just kidding it was at youth one Friday and we were playing all these weird games Paul made up, so of course they were weird. But anyways ... I had to be tied up in saran wrap and then roll across the room where a banana was placed and then eat it. The first one to be done won. Well I didn't win, however; I did get second place which was good considering I was the last one to roll across the floor... but our team did happen to nabb first place in the end. We got a Jones soda (my favorite) and we also got a chocolate bar !! It was so awesome. So just a reminder to those who were going to try and keep me tied up? I'm free and not planning to be tied up anytime soon. (lol) I also went to my friends soccer game the other day. He was awesome even though he doesn't like to admit it and I have also managed to get a job at Mc Donalads as well. I really enjoy it alot! The atmosphere there is amazing, but I am a strange one because I love to work. (lol) If you like work I recommend McDonalds guys. I do not have any remorse for quitting at Domino's and I have to admit this job is like heaven compared to my last job In fact I kind of look down with contempt on Domino's shh don't tell anyone ok Well holding school and a job is kinda hard but I have managed so far and I think I am doing pretty good!!! School is actually great. I have met lots of new people and new teachers! My little sister is now in grade 9 to so she is also enjoying high school too! it's awesome!!!!!! I grew my nails out to I am so happy. I have never done that before!! I am so hyped.. and Krystal and my mother are growing very big on their bellies so soon I will be an aunty and a big sister !! I can't wait !!! but I have to go now ok !!! I'll check you guys laters!!

bye bye -Brandy

Fun with Bananas and Saran Wrap.

This is a great picture.....

Not sure who took it.....

but they have Brandy right where she should be....

tied up.

I'm betting she hasn't seen this one yet!

As you can see we have a lot of fun doing terrible thing to our youth group...
