Family Visit!

The past few days my mom and little brother came out to visit us. It was great! It was nice to see them and it was nice to not be alone in my apartment all day as well. To make it better the past week has not been as bad in the nausea department either. It was fun to go "see the sights" around Albuquerque. We went to this Indian Cultural Center that was really cool as well as the zoo and aquarium and some of the nearby Indian Pueblos. It was kind of like a vacation for me since for a few days I got to have the car and I had company! It was great to have a break from the norm. Now they have gone back home so it is back to the normal routine. It will be pretty lonely after having people here for a few days, but that's life and it goes on.

Surprise! :)

Well, this is a surprise for me, Mr. Muscles, and I am assuming everyone else too, but we are having a baby. Yesterday I took a pregnancy test really just for fun. I figured I would start today or in the next few days because I am not completely regular since stopping b.c. However, pretty soon there was a little line indicating that I was pregnant. This will be quite the challenge, but no matter when we got pregnant there would be challenges so I sure it will be fine. When I looked on the internet the possible due date is March 18-19 so right in between Jakob and Alexa's birthdays. So we will see how it goes. We did not know if we should tell anyone because it is soo early, but o/well now we have. We were planning to get pregnant in a few months, but apparently someone else had other plans. Have a great day!

Knockin' Together

So yesterday everything caught up to both me and Mr. Muscles so we really needed a break. We were going to go out to dinner on my birthday, but then he ended up working late (which was not that big of a deal it had been a fun day) but yesterday morning it seemed everyone had problems they needed solved. It seems like so many people do not know how to solve their own problems. I think I had just gotten sick of hearing how it was so hard and how their area was bad because it seems like that is all we ever hear about so I heard someone say something and I started to cry (it was okay because I was back in our bedroom so no one knew) eventually everyone left and I was talking to Mr. Muscles about what a pain everything was. We decided to go to lunch and went to this place we both love (the Japanese steakhouse place) which was really fun. Then we decided that since I needed to go to Sam's Club (which is out by where he was working) I would go out with him, but I did not want to be at Sam's Club for 5 hours so I went knocking with him. It was really fun because all but 1 person we talked to were interested and the people were all really cool. It was just fun to "see him in action." I was just amazed because he is really good and so calm. He makes it look so easy. He had me try a door approach and it went fine, just about 90 mph too fast :) But at the other houses it was cool to see how he resolved their concerns and the way he talked to people. He is so wonderful and he works soo hard!! Today they started early so I am hoping he will be done early? He wants 4 sales so he said it depends on how quickly he can get done. Hopefully everyone in our office can buck up and realize that different aspects are hard for everyone, but to be successful you look past the hard things and focus on the end result. :)
