Long night!

We had a very interesting and long night last night....  Our cat Tuffy started throwing up from 7pm last night to 7am this morning, about 30-40 times!!  We didn't want to take any chances in case he may have gotten into something, or if he had swallowed a string or anything at all!!  He's my little man and it kills me when he's sick!  So we rushed him to the vet this morning and he's there now getting tests done to see what's wrong.  My hormones must be through the roof today because as soon as we walked into the vets office I start crying! And I couldn't stop no matter how hard I tried! Scott kept telling me, "It will be ok!! He's going to be fine!" but all I could respond with is, "I know... I just can't help it! I'm pregnant!"

That's about the most exciting thing (although not exciting, just sad) that's happened in the last week.

I guess a few other things are going on with us.... Last week, I drove the Bronco down to get the mail and once I got to the mail box, it died on me!  Luckily it wasn't too cold out and just as I was walking back with the mail, your neighbor Jackie pulled in and rescued me!!  We tried getting it started several times with no luck.  They are so awesome! She took me back to her house (because Scott had to go to Billings that day/night for a training at work, so I was home alone) and insisted I stay with them for dinner.  Then when her husband and son got home from work/school they literally towed the Bronco back to our house for us!!  Although it wasn't the most fun evening because of the Bronco dying, I really had a great time hanging out with them! 

Unfortunately, the Bronco is still not working.  Scott's going to call my dad this weekend and bounce ideas off him to see if something clicks for him that may be the problem.  He thought, after all his research, that it may be some thermometer sensor thing.  He replaced that with no luck.  So back to the drawing board!

Well, Christmas is my favorite time of the year, and yes, I still have all my Christmas stuff up including our tree! Mostly because out cats have quit drinking out of their water bowls and now all they want to do is drink out of the Christmas tree water.  Crazy cats! :)  But we expected the thing to start dying, but it's not!!  It's actually sprouting new stuff all over it!  I'll try to take a picture before we take it down....  hoping it comes down this weekend.

On the baby front:  I think we've finally picked names!!!  I'm only 10 weeks 2 days along (I thought I was only 9 weeks, but the Dr's office said I'm 10 weeks! I think I lost count!!), so we still have several weeks to go till we find out for sure, but to know that we finally have both a boy name and a girl name (still deciding on the girl's middle name) picked out is kind of exciting!!  For those of you anxious to find out, you all are just going to have to wait!  I do have my first doctor's appointment next week and I'll update you all about that when that time comes.  I'm anxious but very excited!! 
And I have to say that I'm really starting to show.  I've gained between 7.5-9" around my waist line already, yet have managed to lose 10 lbs because I don't have much of an appetite at all.  Luckily I'm not getting real morning sickness, but I'm feeling nauseous throughout part of the day.  What seems to bug me the most is toothpaste, the smell of the litter box/toilet, and cold air! Every time I go out in the cold air I start gagging. 

My appetite is finally starting to come back a little and I am having cravings - Sutton's potato wedges and El Toro Mexican food! Both are in OH.  But when Scott and I had to drop off our rental truck (when we moved all out stuff out here), we dropped it off in Utah (7 hrs away) and found another El Toro that had AMAZING Mexican food!  I told Scott a couple days ago to expect that at some time during this pregnancy we are going to take a weekend trip to Utah just to get Mexican food! haha

I don't think, or I can't think of anything at the moment, that there is any other fun news to share, but I'll keep you all updated when things do come up!! 

Have a great rest of the week!
