New Adventure of Life

Well I am finally pregnant. I know a lot of people were praying for me since all I wrote about at the beginning of the year was about how much I wanted to be pregnant and to start a family with James. I found out that I was pregnant at the beginning of June. Right around the time I stop writing my blogs. It was hard to blog without talking about the baby. Now that we told family and made it "facebook official" I can write about it here. I lost weight at the beginning because I could hardly eat. I was always sick to my stomach. I couldn't eat meat or stand the smell of it cooking. Poor James had to stop eating bacon for breakfast because it would make me sick. With me barely eating, I would become shaky. I had to miss a few Sundays at church because I didn't feel good or because I was to shaky to go. I went to my first prenatal appointment when I was 15 weeks. Yes I know that is a little late for the first appointment, but we tried going sooner. We went to the fami...

People have asked me different questions about my internet. Yes i know that is a strange thing to ask, but when I tell them I can't do something because we don't have much usage left they are like what? Today is the day that starts a new month which is why there is very little shown. When I skype with my best friend CiJi, we normally talk for about 3 hours since we only skype once a month it takes about 1.5 bars just for the 3 hours. Sometimes we do great and have 3 bars left at the end of the month other times we are cutting it close. If we go over it cost us more money. We are already paying a big chunk of money just for this amount of usage. When we signed up for it there was a cheaper plan but you get hardly enough internet. I was talking to my sister about how I was watching Gilmore Girls through netflixs, but I had to get them in the mail. She was like you can't get it through your Wii? I told her that if we do streaming it would you a pretty big section of internet...

So it's been awhile... I have been going to church on Sundays which is nice. Slowly meeting new people there. The pastor told me this past Sunday that people will start coming back and everything will pick up so James and I can find some ministry to be involved in.  It's still a little hard going to church without James, but I'm making it. I found out that there was a men's Bible study on Wednesday nights and I found out the time and came home and told James about it. We emailed are pastor to see if it went on during the summer since everything else was done. Found out it does go on during the summer. James went there tonight. Hopefully he can start meeting people also that are not coworkers. It will be great for him to be around other believers.  So last week James and I went grocery shopping and I decided that I needed to go get some birthday cards for my mom and my nephew whose birthdays are next week. Well I saw some post cards write next to the card, so I started ...

Sorry that I haven't blogged recently. I didn't know what to really write about. The last couple weeks have been long. I wasn't feeling well so nothing got done around the house. Thankfully my husband understood and helped clean and cook.  I  have missed the last two Sundays from church. The first one I wasn't feeling well and it was raining so I told James to go ahead and take the truck. Yesterday I ended up getting up and took James to work so I could have the truck. But when I got up my legs felt really shaky. This was the second time it had happen to me in the last couple day. I think I need to get up early to eat breakfast so I don't feel like this anymore.  Hopefully I can make it next week.  Well I have come to realize that  James and I have now been in Alaska for a year now. Can't believe that it's been that long. I still have a year to go until I can go home and visit my family. For my sake and the sake of my family I hope it's not as hot as it...

So the other day James and I were doing laundry and we opened our window downstairs to help dry the clothes faster since it was about 70 degrees outside. Well that was a mistake. We don't have a screen in that window and so the mosquitoes decided to come in and make themselves at home. My right arm feels like it is covered with bites. I have probably at least 8 on that arm alone. I also have some everywhere else, but my right arm is the one with the most. The night that we had all these mosquitoes we were up until 2am killing as many as we can. We would be almost asleep and then we would hear them fly around our head. It's been about 2 days and we almost got them all. there maybe be about 2 or 3 left. We can't open our downstairs window anymore which is kinda sad because it's gets so hot when I cook our meals. It's also has been so nice lately that we want to open the window to the fresh air, but we don't since we don't want to get any more mosquitoes bites ...

Well last Friday, June 1st, James went and looked at a truck and decided to buy it. Yes we did discussed it, but he wasn't sure if he was going to buy it or not when he went to look at it. Well this past Thursday we got the title and all that fun stuff switched over in to James' name and now I can drive it legally. Which mean I can go to church for the first time in about a month and a half. I'm looking for to be getting out of the house and around other people. Here is a picture of the truck

I'm always so bored when James is at work. I was talking to James about cleaning the apartment while he is at work. I was telling him that maybe if I broke the rooms in sections and do one room a day while he is at work. He was okay with that idea. It only takes me maybe 2 hours to clean the whole downstairs. (kitchen, living room, and bathroom) And then up stairs which is our bedroom always gets clean if I can find room for stuff.  Well last week James and I ordered a shelving thing that is suppose to be like a closest outside of the closet. This thing came in the mail earlier this week and I decided that I would go set it up.  As I was putting it together it was get taller then I expected it to be. We had to move our dresser down a little bit and put this shelf in it's spot.  I'm glad we got this shelf unit. I can actually take care of our clothes and we won't have to live out of totes anymore.
