Day 19-Something you miss
Hmm... I'm trying to think of something non pregnancy related, because no one wants to hear me complain about that anymore. haha
I really can't think of anything. I am one of those people who enjoy and embrace change.

Day 18-Something you regret
Ooh another easy one!
The thing I regret most in life is being a beauty school dropout. :(
Beauty school is actually pretty grueling. I mean, it's easy and fun and all, but it's so time consuming. Part time hours consist of Monday through Friday evenings 5-10pm. And it'll take you almost 2 years to complete (they go by hours. I believe you need 1600 hours total to graduate). When you work full time this is not an easy task. So my day basically started at 6:30AM, I'd get to work at 8AM, only a half hour lunch break so I can leave by 4:30 to get to school by 5:00. I got burnt out quick. And not only that, but at the time (this was like 5 or 6 years ago) I had a really bad roomate situation. So not only was i tired because of my schedule, but i wasn't getting any sleep at night because of the roommate situation. I mean, real school isn't even that bad! You go a few days a week and have options on doing it online. Beauty school is either full time (8-5 mon-fri) or part time, which i mentioned above.
I know, I'm making excuses... I should've just delt with it. What I did, was take a break. I swore to all that's holy I was returning in 2 months.... yeah. It's been like i said 5 or 6 years. I don't see myself returning at this point unless I don't have to work full time (especially after making babies), and i'll never be able to not work or only work part time, because we can't afford it. I should've gone back like I planned way back when. Oh wellsies!

Day 17-Something you're looking forward to
Well this is a big fat DUH! The only thing I'm looking forward to right now is having a sweet baby girl! I'm super anxious for that day to get here. I'm READY! I'm ready to never sleep again, or leave the house without getting a kid ready. I'm ready to change diapers, get spit up on, and just everything else that comes with being a mom. :)

33 Weeks
How you're feeling: Miserable. PUPPP rash is getting worse. It's now covering my whole body. The only way I can sleep is with ice packs. It's so frustrating.
How far along? 33 wks
Total Weight Gain? It's starting to slow down! only 1 pound the past two weeks! So i'm up total of 33lbs now. :/
Maternity Clothes? yep
Stretch Marks? my belleh is MESSED up. especially since the rash makes them look 10 times worse.
Sleep? here's my sleep schedule:
9PM: scrub the body down with Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap, get a couple bags of ice, place on itchiest parts of body and go to bed.
11PM: Wake up to pee. Itch itch itch... scratch scratch scratch. Rub myself down with cortisone cream.
1AM: wake up to pee. Let Lily out to pee. itch itch itch... scratch scratch scratch. apply more cream, get new ice packs. Oh great. Now I'm so fucking itchy that I can't stop scratching and I can't go back to sleep. Aaaah!!
2:30AM: still awake because of the itching. Seriously going crazy. Go wash myself with Gpa's Pine Tar Soap again, and lay back down. Turn on the TV to distract me from thinking about how bad I itch.
3AM: finally fall back asleep.
6AM: wake up to pee. Itch itch itch... scratch scratch scratch. Apply cream and change ice packs.
7:45: Alarm goes off, push snooze, but I start itching so I give up and get out of bed for the day.
Best Moment This Week?can't say anything that great has happened.
Movement? Less kicks, more rolling and wiggling. She's actually pretty chill. Hope she stays that way!
Food Cravings? nothing in paticular, I just can't seem to ever get full.
Gender? GIRL!!!!
Labor signs? Nada
Belly Button? half in half out. Top is out, bottom is in.
What I Miss? Not itching non stop.
What I Am Looking Forward To? Getting this baby out so I can stop itching.
Milestones? Can't say that there's been any lately.

Day 15-Bible verse
Uh... I've never read the bible.... skip!
Day 16-Dream house
Reality: I'm a very simple person. I love the older homes here in AZ. I don't like the new "cookie cutter" houses. They're too close together, no yard, and all look the same. I/WE would love an older home on some land. Ok, so HUSBAND would like an older home on land. I actually really love our house and our neighborhood. If we only had the money to finish remodeling. A new kitchen is a must have. Mine is a super small, fugly, outdated galley and I HATE it. Also, our master bathroom needs to be gutted as well as the backyard, complete with a new pool deck, landscape the front yard, paint the exterior... okay so if we could win the lottery and do everything we needed to do to our house it'd be perfect for us.
Fantasy:
A beach house. It's my unrealistic dream of living RIGHT on the boardwalk. Somewhere like San Diego. Keep dreaming.

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 12
Day 12-What you believe
Hmmm... this is a hard one. Are we talking about religion? Just in general?
* I believe in God.
* I do NOT believe in organized religion.
* I believe in soul mates. That there is one person on this earth that was put there just for you. Weather or not you find that person is a different thing. I believe I found my soul mate. <3 awww.
* I believe that pets are indeed family.
* I believe money buys happiness, MOST of the time anyway. Because seriously, if we were rich I'd be a MUCH happier person. Money makes the world go round. It sucks, but that's how it is.
* I believe sex is important in a relationship/marriage.
That's all I can think of...
