To learn about SoCoS...
Ice Cream:This might be easy, I absolutely LOVE ice cream. Baskin Robbins to be exact. I worked there during high school. My faves are World Class Chocolate (mostly white) and Jamocha Almond Fydge. My mouth is watering just thinking about a double dip right now. I also love homemade ice cream, but have not yet tried to make it myself. As a child we had an old ice cream maker and I would sit on the patio on hot summer days in California churning that thing. It was always vanilla. Ice cream with cake is a must on a birthday. I will compromise and eat Braum's if I don't have enough money for BR. Hit a road block...TIME! 3:37

Tuesday Truth's... OK Kayla, I'll jump on the bandwagon...
I've read several of Kayla's "Tuesday Truth's", so now I'll give it a go for myself. I may not go as "naked" as Kayla has, but here is a start.
DEPRESSION:
Since taking Prometrium and now taking Progesterone injections, I have had my share of Depression ( a possible side effect). It sure is no fun!!! I have heard the feelings described but could never relate. Well, I can now. It comes in waves, and most of the time I'm feeling pretty good. I have had my share of unexplainable crying, and just feeling down and out, and very irritable; even when I'm alone. Yesterday, I told my mom about it, it was so nice to talk to someone about it. What I've noticed is that I don't feel this way for any specific reason.. such as kids acting up, argument w/ hubby, etc... I just do. This is how I knew. I'm not sure if I'm making much sense at all, but I'm sure you get the idea...
I am still on modified bed rest, and I've been trying to stay as inactive as possible. I am so blessed to have my mom here to help me, and she has gone above and beyond!
So, "depression hurts" rings true... but I know it will get better. I'm glad for now it seems to be more like "bouts" of depression for me. Right now I feel really good. Thanks for listening!

I got these for the baby....
Sophie after returning from outside....
Sophie: "Mom, I got these for the baby!"
Me: "Oh, let me see, what are they?"
Sophie: " A stick, a rock, and an acorn. I'm going to go wash them off right now!"
Me: "I'm sure the baby will love them"

Random Thoughts...
My dog snores VERY loud!
David has been very sick Sun-Wed, only the 3rd time in 16 years of marriage, what a blessing!
My aunt, age 73, left for Cambodia today to teach English using the Bible, this is one more of many mission trips she has made over the years. If you every want to do missions but think you can't consider this... she is a single woman and has been at it for over 30 years, and she has no plans of stopping any time soon.
I've discovered a new blog I love to read, Alamode, check it out on my sidebar, she's great!
I know what we are having, but until March 19th, my next ultrasound and my anniversary of 16 years I am waiting to announce, that is if you don't hear from Sophie before then :)
I am planning to make my own laundry soap and dishwashing soap soon, I'll let you know how that goes!
I am thrilled that I am going to be able to watch Oklahoma Christian's Spring Sing on the internet tomorrow night. I can't wait to see Meagan Branch (our flower girl) perform. By the way, when Sophie first saw our wedding pics (age 2 or so) she thought Meagan was her... she said look at my pretty dress :)
Davis can rest easy, the 5th grade Writing Test is over, gone, done with. He was soooo worried about it, kind of made me happy to see that he was taking it so serious. He surprises me everyday.
Randomness will end now. I promise I can think pretty random thoughts sitting at home for hours :)

You may hear more from me in the days to come... Pregnancy issues
I heart blogging, I really do. I just can't find the time to squeeze it in when I work and carry on with other responsibilities. Oh, and I LOVE to read other blogs too... Somehow I find a little time to do that every few days.
So, this pregnancy has proved to be somewhat eventful. From all the Progesterone deficiencies, and the symptoms that go along with that, to now what I am dealing with. I've had more spotting in the last 2 weeks, so I called the Dr. Tuesday morning. They wanted me in for an ultrasound/exam at noon. A small tear was detected on the placenta. I left thinking that it was no biggie, then got a call a couple of hours later with a little different news. With all the trouble of low progesterone it can affect the development of the lining and placenta. Therefore, I started Prog. injections yesterday and I am on a modified version of bed rest so the tear can heal. I'm pretty much home bound with my feet up until the end of next week when I will have yet another ultrasound. I actually feel pretty good physically speaking. Slight cramping is all. Emotionally I am doing pretty good, especially since the symptoms have subsided some. Please pray. Thank you.
On another note, I hope to blog a little more. On to my next post. Random thoughts Thursday!
