So I have been in Yuma all weekend. Luckily its been just as hot as Phoenix so I'm not dying.
So yesterday we went floating down the river to have a bbq at the park. It was fun and funny. Billy, Jeramey and their parents went down in inner tubes, while Melissa, Brynn, Kenzy and I went in a little raft boat thing.... I didn't want my hair to get wet haha.... and Skyler just pretty much swam down with a life jacket.It took us a little over 30 mins to get down the river to the park. I was surprised I didn't get burnt. Brynns little cheeks got a little red, but that was about it.
At the park I ate like 3 hot dogs, chips, 4 cups of lemonade, and still wanted more when we got home, then i ate 2 little pizzas! I better watch what I eat or I am going to gain more than just baby weight!
Well I'll write more about the float down another day, I'm hungry for breakfast. :)

Interesting Night
So last night I get a text from Billy like 10 mins after he just dropped me off at my moms house saying, "Somethings not right with KK I think her blood sugar is low Im giving her juice and soda I will let you know." Then he said she was "drowsy and out of it with a cold sweat like when someone is low." So I called him and had my mom speak to him. He then told us we should come over, so we started to get ready and he called again and asked if he should call 911 because she was making a weird face and grabbing her chest (now this is the aunt that went in for back surgery last year and had a heart attack on the table and died so they had to stop the surgery and then she ended up having to have a triple by pass, THEN she finally got her back fixed.... THEN she was passing out at home from the pain and she broke her dang ankle!) and we said yes to call them. I have to say the EMTs are FAST! We left the house before he called them and they STILL beat us there.
When we got there she was completely passed out and slumped over the side of her chair and totally wired up to everything possible, they had the IV going and like 5 billions other things (Oh I think i know the girl who was holding up the IV, she mus be and intern, thats all she did the whole time, but it was that awkward stare where you can help but look to try to figure out who they are, she did the same thing to me)
KK finally started to come around and she had no idea what was going on, she still thought she was on the couch telling billy what she wanted for dinner 2 hours before. Then it started to get funny. One of the EMTs put the oxygen mask on her and didn't warn her and she had the funniest face! "Oh sorry sweet heart! maybe i should warn you next time." Then she was asking whats going on and was all squirmy because they had the wires up her dress and she didn't know they they were EMTs and that it was ok. The main guy who was asking all the questions told her "Its ok, this is what we do, we come in, poke and prod everywhere." It was funny.
After only a few mins of the IV she was totally back as if nothing had happened. It was weird.
But during this whole thing we actually got all 3 of her sons to the house! We were telling her she should have done this earlier so we could all go out to eat after. but it was like almost 10 when the EMTs left.
Billy slept in the living room last night to check on her off and on. She didn't want him to but we told her to get over it.
All in all it was a very interesting night...... and still I am thinking about who that girl was! I SWEAR I must know her! I probably should have just asked. haha.
Oh well, Mike (one of my cousins) told KK that if she does this again dinner is on her. Since this whole thing happened because nothing sounded good to eat to her today even though she needed to eat. AND since she didn't call anyone to say she wasn't feeling right when we were right around the corner at Home Depot. Oh AND because she didn't tell us she felt weird before we left to go get stuff and food, she told just just go to the store first THEN get food. Shame on her. She doesn't like to bother people. Silly woman.
Well that was our night. Sounded fun didn't it?

3 Months
Well I am finally 3 Months along now. It seemed like it took forever. There is always that little fear that it might not make it. But I made it to my second trimester! YAY ME! And i SWEAR like a few days after I realized how far along I was... the puking up everything stopped! YAY again! I can finally start gaining some weight. Before we found out I was pregnant I weighed a good 118, then when I went to see my midwife (I had already started with the morning sickness) I was 115, and it only took me 2 days of puking to get there. Since then I have fluctuated between 110 and 115, but more lately I have been sticking with 115. I am also starting to show. I was showing back around 2 months but it was only enough that I would notice since its my body and all. But now my friends say I always look like i just ate a good amount of burgers. Haha. Soon i can started buying maternity clothes, maybe I'll get some for my birthday.
Like Birds blog I have been super ditsy! My mom and Billy have noticed the most. I don't really notice till I find something I have been looking for hours later in the place where I could swear I looked.
So i chopped off all my hair again, I just got tired of it. Curly hair sucks. If i actually washed it everyday like people with straight hair do I would go through SO MUCH product. And plus your told you should only wash curly hair once every 3 days, otherwise it will get brittle and start to break. So in those 2 days I don't wash it, if i sleep I wake up with a rats nest that is impossible to manage. THEN when I wash my hair I have to take a pick in there with me and pick it all out! And let me tell you.... THAT HURTS! Plus I lose more hair than I should because it gets all tangled and pulled out. Sooooo I had my mom just chop it off. She cut off about 4 or 5 inches. It feels sooooooooo much better, now I can straighten it again! And it wont take me and hour to do it. Also I wont go through shampoo as fast anymore. Woo woo. I know this all seem like a small dilemma but its big to me, I have lived with this crazy hair my whole life and there is still no cure! haha.
Well I got to get my stuff packed and cleaned up so I can finally move into the guest house!

Maybe i should be a writer.....
Or maybe i shouldn't seeing as i can spell all that well and my grammar is not all that swell. hehe well i guess i can rhyme.
Well the highlight of my last 3 days has been my addiction to those silly Twilight books. I got done with all 3 before Monday was over. See i have this problem with it comes to good books, i just cant seem to put them down, even if that means eating in my room just so i can lay down and read. The last time this happened it was ALL the Harry Potters. I finished 6 books in a span of only 5 days, THAN i anticipated the 7th edition like the big nerd that i am. Any who back to the Twilight saga.....
My super awesome friend Oralia (who i haven't seen since my last day of work by the way! and i miss her like CRAZY) started talking to me about these books she was reading and i realized they were the ones written by the BYU graduate Stephanie Meyers everyone at church has been talking about. When i told her she was Mormon she was all, "NO WAY!!!!!! Mormons and VAMPIRES!!??" Haha. Silly girl, we aren't all that sheltered and reserved, we do read other books you know. She tried talking me into buying just the first one for weeks, and i finally caved while at Target with me mum. Thus beginning my isolation to my room with my nose stuck in a book.
The books were addicting, BUT the writing you could tell was from a beginner, not that I'm an expert or anything. The books starts off with her using allot of "big" words that weren't really needed, but that fades away quickly after the first chapter. Then she foreshadows ALOT, a little too much if you ask me. I mean i figured out 90% of the second book before i even finished the first.
I had to laugh at Oralia when i was done reading them for her not even notice that this was CLEARLY written by someone who was LDS. The first MAJOR clue would have been the VAMPIRE (Vampire in all history and legend = Lust) not wanting to make love until he was married to the girl first. Not once in any book, movie, or storey have i ever heard of a vampire saying no.... All this though makes you love the character, who doesn't want a traditional, loyal, vampire who is willing to wait for you? haha.
(yes i know its two o'clock in the morning, my sleep hours are all messed up from reading)
So Oralia was right and now i cant wait for the next 2 books too come out, I mostly cant wait for the 5th one, it is supposed to be written from Edwards eyes instead of Bellas. And i also cant wait for the stinkin movie too.
This year i plan to see 2 movies in total. (unless i can afford others but these 2 for sure) Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince and now Twilight. During which i will be super fat since HP is in November and Twilight is in December.
Clearly i have ranted long enough. I suppose ill go to sleep now...... or reread the first book again........

What a week
Well right now i am staying with my mom till we get moved into my aunts guest house. There are more reasons for me to get out of bed here and frankly i am sick of our dark apartment. I am finally able to go in the guest house now because all the bug bomb stuff is gone and the paint is dry, so now i am going there everyday when my mom gets home from work to fix the floor that didn't get put down nicely. We were supposed to be out of our apartment on Saturday but no one in my family would help fix up the guest house and billy went to Yuma on Saturday, so now we have to still pay this months rent (when we just don't have the money so i don't know how we are going to do that) and some how make child support, a $600 phone billy because billy insisted on buying and playing games and using the Internet on his phone, AND also feed ourselves. Then i find out today that we are going to have to put down more money for the lawyer because the money that was already there is all spend because of the ridiculous things a certain ex wife is making us do..... like unneeded depos, i mean come on! i worked at a law firm for a year and not once did i come across a depo in family law. I have a feeling she is doing all this just to cause problems and feel in control. And to top all this off, we are STILL waiting for health insurance. I would REALLY like to get in and have a real check up.
All stress aside, no one else can tell except me but i am starting to not fit any of my clothes, BUT i am still too small for maternity stuff.... its annoying. I also STILL have morning, afternoon, and night sickness. But the prenatal stuff is making my hair and nails awesome. lol.
Well hopfully we get moved in by the 15th, then we might not have to pay the full months worth of rent.
