Trinkets To Treasures

Whew! I just spent the whole day setting up for the largest rummage sale of the year! The annual Trinket To Treasures hosted by The Junior League of Plano. The sale is tomorrow from 8-2 at the Plano Centre. Stop by for some GREAT deals!!!

The worst might be over!

I woke up the morning of the day I turned 12 weeks and as if someone had flicked a switch....I felt 100% better. Crazy!!! I am starting to feel like a human again....now if I could just do something about this pregnancy brain!!

Also, my new favorite TV show is Castle! Love it!!!!

Things they don't tell you about the first trimester of pregnancy:

1) You will have gas...lots of gas!
2) Lifetime Movie Network is your new favorite channel.
3) The acceptance speeches at the Oscars will make your cry.
4) If you accomplish one thing a day, you are doing good!
5) Garlic smells like poop.
6) "Pregnancy glow" really means awkward teenage zits.
7) Everything makes your stomach hurt.
8) Pregnancy brain is REAL! (I decorated for Valentines day in March...not joking)
9) Your husband will become a housekeeping superhero while you sit on the couch.

The Sweetest Sound We've Ever Heard!

This morning Vince and I went to the Birth and Women's Center for our 10 week appointment. We heard the baby's strong heartbeat and are ready to go public with our big news!! I even added a little ticker on the side of our blog. WE ARE PREGNANT! The baby is due on October 7th and we are obviously very excited about this little bundle of joy in my belly!

Would you like some rust with that salad?

On Friday my team ordered Jason's Deli for lunch! We were proud of ourselves for making a healthy choice on a day we usually indulge in Wendy's or McDonald's or Chick-Fil-A. I ordered the nutty, mixed up salad and as I was enjoying my delicious, healthy choice I glanced upon A LARGE, RUSTY PIECE OF METAL. No joke.



I flipped out and called them. They sent me another salad right away which I inspected very carefully before enjoying. Moral of the story: rust is not a good topping for salads.

Clarification

For those to need to know....It was I (Holly) who ran into the glass revolving door in Vegas. And, Rhonda, even though it wasn't Vince it was still funny and sh*t....pee your pants in the hotel lobby funny...I am laughing pretty hard thinking about it now! Ahhhh, good times! When can I go back?

And we're back....

OK, that was a long hiatus from the blog. I think I lost some fans (Rhonda)! Here are some things we have been busy doing:

1) Most of my family came and celebrated Christmas and New Years with us (including Vince's parents!!!) Highlights include: swimming, Medieval Times with a bonus trip to the ER where we learned that Creigh is allergic to horses, talent show, stocking gift exchange, and laughing a lot.

2) Vince and I just got back from Vegas! I learned how to play blackjack and gave all my money to Wheel of Fortune. Vince went for a Chiropractic conference...I have to tag along because it's too sad to stay home and miss the fun! Highlights include: running into glass doors and being nicknamed Berti, Buffet breakfast, dancing to Earl and his band, sleeping in and finishing the 3rd book in the Twilight series (yes, I am totally addicted!!...yes, I know it's for teenagers...I don't care and you wouldn't either if you read the first one).

3) We recently got a surprise garage makeover courtesy of my mom and dad (aka the garage angels). It's pretty much amazing!! I am sure we will be motivated to keep it clean for quite some time! Thanks mom and dad!!!

4) I had a birthday!!! I am 28...I think...yup...28! Vince got me the entire Sex and the City series and I can't wait till summer when I can watch it non-stop!!! I also ate the BEST CAKE EVER!! It's from The Cake Stand in McKinney. Holy COW!!

5) We celebrated our anniversary. We have been married for 3 years now. Time flies when you are having fun!! We went to a cool little sushi restaurant and discovered bubbly Saki!!

That is all I can think of right now...stay tuned for more. Rhonda, I promise I won't keep you waiting that long again.

Oh...P.S. We are down to 3 cats again!! Let's see how long that lasts!!
