Its been quite a while since I have posted anything of value. Most of you probably already know that I am pregnant with baby #2. I am 12 weeks along and my due date is 5-3-11. Two weeks ago I had my first appointment and ultra sound. It was so fun seeing the baby jump around and to find out that everything is as it should be. We are really excited to have a new baby and feel so blessed that God has allowed us to do this again.
So far this pregnancy has been extremely tough for me. My food allergies have been at an all time high and I have been really sick. Today is one of my first good days I have had but I think it might be because I haven'tt eaten very much. It seems the more I eat the worse off I am. Thankfully like last time my Chiropractor has been able to help me narrow down what foods I can eat. The list is quite short and I get really tired of eating meat but I know it's worth it.
Gianna is now two and she is giving us a run for our money. The past week we have been experiencing a lot of drama from her. Thankfully we have had some good moments that help us remember why we love her so much. It's amazing how angry your own child can make you. I am really working on redirecting her, being consistent with discipline and choosing my battles. Motherhood is so good for me.

What do you want to know about me?
My good friend Corrina Castillo did a fun question and answer blog post and I thought I would play along. I am on hold with Aetna right now so I thought what better time. Plus I am not feeling too teribbly sick so I thought I better get on it and post something on my blog.
1. What is one goal you have in the next 5 years? To get strong enough so I can run without pain
2. If you could purchase an entire outfit--head to toe--what would it be? I have no idea this is a really hard question for me. Okay so it would need to involve some type of jacket because I can never afford the cute one's, some cute shoes, a new purse and jewerly. Outside of that??? Well, I guess a super cute and hot dress that makes me feel increadible. Okay that wasn't that hard:)
3. What country do you want to visit and why? There are so many places I want to travel. I went to Italy on a quick trip after college but my husband has never been and he is full Italian. I would love to go there together, visit family and enjoy the culture.
4. What is your favorite See's Candy?
Scotch Mallow, California Brittle and Almond squares
5. What music are you listening to most frequently right now? A Kids music CD that takes old songs and puts a new spin on them. Gianna is obsessed with most of the songs.
6. What's the last thing you did for yourself? I went and got a pedi/mani
7. What time do you wake up in the morning? 6:54 - it was so great to sleep in
8. What kind of jammies do you wear? Pregnancy bra, and a tank top. I get hot pretty easily so I don't like to wear much.
9. What is your outlet? Right now I don't have much of an outlet because I cancelled my gym membership to save money. I would say swimming laps is a great way for me to unwind, taking a walk or talking to a good friend.
If you want to do this also just let me know by posting a link to you post in the comments. Thanks for playing and for reading my responses.
