The Joys of Sneezing


I can't even believe it...As if sneezing wasn't enough oh it's own. Add in pregnancy and small bladder and you have got it all. 
I mean besides feeling like my hips are going to explode off my body I now have the added pleasure of wetting myself as well. 
Embarrassing.
Luckily I was no where public at the time of this incident. 
But still....

15 weeks.

Alright, 
I am 15 weeks today based on the whole due date and this app we have on Daniel's phone. :) Exciting!
I can definately tell that I have a belly. Others may not see it but I do (and I can feel it too.)
It's a different perspective looking down and seeing my belly pop out. Not used to that. Well kinda... but before I could just stand up straight and WALA it was gone. 
Anyway, 
some people wanna see this belly picture and what not and hey it may be little but i'm excited!
Not quite feeling the baby move around yet... sometimes I think I might... but I could be over excited too.

13 weeks just barely something there


15 weeks now it's see-able. 
It's amazing how much changes in 2 weeks. 
:)



Southern Alberta :)

So this last weekend we went on an impromptu road trip down south. Okay... we had kinda planned it a week before we went down.
My sister Becky had her kid's baby blessing on the 11th and we didn't want to miss that.
Daniel reffed the Saturday night however and didn't get home till.... 1:20. (I was asleep) Well considering he was wide awake and had woken me up and we were planning on leaving around 3:30 AM anyway... we jumped in the car while it was still warm and away we went. :)
It was 2:00 by the time we got out of Lloyd. :) awesome.
Well by about 3:00 I decided to cave and sleep. But oh yeah... being pregnant my body craves sleep yet detests it at the same time. Sleeping in a car... not the best idea. But I managed to curl up in the back seat and mummify myself so I wouldn't hear the radio and got oh 1 1/2- 2 hours of sleep.
By the time I got to drive it was 5am. Best shift ever! I got to watch the sun come up and the fog disappear! it was cool. though all the Fog was reminding me of the movie Brigadoon (anyone?) I got to find it and watch it again.
Well we made it to my parentals house at 8:30. Impressive hey? They were a little shocked they were expecting us to just walk into church right before the baby blessing. SURPRISE! haha
Well we made it to the baby blessing and it was wonderful! I got to hold that cute little niece for the first time! :) LOVE IT! Becky makes thee cutest babies. just saying. :)

Another reason for us going down south was so that Daniel could go hunting and be a man and bring home meat for our deep freeze.
So they (Daniel, Greg, and Bryan) set off Monday 10:00 and were gone till 4:45. it was a very unsuccessful day.
Tuesday (Daniel, Bryan) left around 6 AM. were gone till noonish. Successful for Bryan but no luck for Dan.
Wednesday (the day we had to leave we had decided to leave by 2:30) Daniel went out around 7:30 with Greg for a little bit out around my g-ma's. .... Nothing. I went out with him for a little before lunch.. bad idea. I got super hungry and had to pee (that equals a grumpy wife. mixed with a hubby who hasn't shot anything grumpy truck) So my grandma fed us and you could tell Daniel was ready to give up. Then my sister came in saying she saw a buck running through the trees. Wow did Daniel move fast.

****According to some hunting stipulations he can only shoot a buck in the Magrath zone. Which is a bummer cause there are millions of Doe's around. But you have to put in a draw for that****

So he ran around again (it's about one o clock he told me he'd be back by 2:30. At about 3 I started to wonder where he was. He wouldn't answer his phone so I was a little worried but I figured I'd freak out around 4 if I hadn't heard from him. Cause lets face it Magrath area is a dead zone.. especially when it comes to reception service! Well shortly after I decided this I got a call from him saying that he'd shot a buck! Wow was he excited! like I could feel him jumping out of his pants over the phone!
So I came out to my grandma's and found this:

I have a very Happy Husband! :)
And a lot of meat for our freezer! :) :)

The Secret is Out!

Baby Fyfe is on it's way!!!!


I figured something was up September 1st. But wasn't late or anything. So we waited. and waited. I started work on the 4th and we waited.  September 5th I couldn't take it any more. I was a whole 2 days late and couldn't stand it! I've never been late so I kinda knew already. So, we got me a pee stick. And the result was there 2 minutes later.
Just a little excited
But we decided to keep it on the D.L. :)
Weeks passed pretty quickly thank goodness and the only problem I had was I was tired all the time! Well until week 5 came. Then food tasted kinda like sand. Yuck. Didn't get to much worse then that. Except for maybe the 3 week period I ate like nothing and lost about 10lbs. (awesome) How you can lose weight when you stomach and boobs are growing is beyond me. (TMI sorry).
I haven't been too sick and I'm counting my blessings that I have still been able to work! Morning sickness. BAH! Evening sickness is where it's at! Don't know how many times Daniel came home to me asleep on the couch. But he survived without me cooking dinner so... we know he can do it! :)

I had my first appointment with Dr. Naude on the 22nd. It was... exciting? Well okay, I got to hear my baby's heartbeat. Then they move on to other things. Not so exciting! But it was awesome to hear that heartbeat and to hear the doctor say everything looks really good!
Then a week and a bit later we get to Today!!!
I got to see my beautiful little baby!
I am 13 weeks!
And Loving life right now!
Sickness is going away and food is becoming awesome once again! (especially fruit!)

Our ultrasound tech was awesome! She was talking and laughing with us about how stubborn this kid is already. Didn't want to show off his profile. Only his back and butt. (takes after Daniel.) We "woke" him up at one point and watched him do some summersalts. Never showing his face! haha talent I know!

*** When we say "him" it's generic. We don't know the gender. We'll find out just before Christmas! What better gift can ya get???***
Look at that cute little butt! :)

Love the feet! they are crossed at the ankles. :) Just chillaxin in my uterus!

and the cute little profile shot we finally got! just before baby rolled back over!
Amazing. Weird to think Baby is really only around the size of a peach but so formed!

Well I'm sure i'll have more posts soon! Yes we'll put up pics of the belly as I get one. :P
And Baby is due
May 11, 2013! :)

Thanksgiving

What a weekend! Sad and glad it's over all at the same time.
My weekend started Friday at 3:15 :) I got home and just vegged (like normal) until the hubby came home.
Saturday I got to sleep in and watch me some conference. Daniel had to go to work (sucker) just for the morning. Daniel got home and shortly after his parents arrived for the weekend. And then Daniel abandoned us yet again to Ref a hockey game. So we put in a movie and chillaxed and then I went to bed. :)
Sunday we lounged for a bit then I went to the church for the morning session of conference and Daniel went to another Hockey game of his. (poop head) So My inlaws and I went to Rommel's house (Daniel's cousin) and visited for a while. And then even longer while my FIL and I waited for the MIL to stop talking. :P no worries. After about 45 mins after we said goodbye we got out. :) oh family.
Then we played some serious gamage and went to bed. :) (so much sleeping. LOVE IT)
Monday we lounged in bed until 9. AMAZING. and then went to Smitty's for breakfast. Delicious! Best Waffles ever! Then lounged around all day while the turkey cooked.
The Low's came over around 4:30 and we put together the rest of the meal and ATE! it was delicious!

****My computer is retarted and didn't straighten the pictures. Tilt your heads. :P****
Daniel eager to eat

Gerald working on the Turkey! So glad I didn't have to make it! Though he makes it look easy! another year perhaps

Delicious food! but I forgot the stuffing in the microwave the whole time. FAIL

Look at all those happy people!

look even I'm there!
Afterwords we played some intense games! Awesome! So glad everyone could come and have a good time!
Next year. . .  I'm all for my Mom making my turkey dinner. . . . hopefully. :)  (though it wasn't as bad as people make it sound!)
