6 months and drama

Here I am at 25 weeks pregnant. Whew and a lot has been going on since I've last written. Which I'm going to try to do better with. My pregnancy has been great for the last month, up until last week. Last Saturday I was in the bed most of the day with tremendous back pain. Everytime I would stand up and put pressure on my left foot a shooting pain would race up my back. So I debated on going to the ER, but instead called the on-call nurse. She told me to rest and take a warm bath. That I did, and it helped. The very next day I was back to being a busy bee. I can't keep still I know.

On the home front, we're in the middle of packing up our apartment to move into our new home. There has been so much drama between our lender and the owner it's been ridiculous! I will save that drama for another entry. Right now we're on track to go to settlement this upcoming week and be moved in by the 22nd. I just want all of this to be over with so I can focus on DJ's arrival. Other than that I'm blessed. Today is Valentines Day and I've had a great day so far. Derrick suprised me yesterday with roses, card and candy last night. Then today he took me and Asia out to lunch. His two Valentines :-)

Here I am now updating my negelecting blog which Derrick is at bowling.

Until next time, be blessed.

5 Months!!

I am now 21 weeks pregnant( 5 months and 1 week). Life is good, even with the heartburn, back pains and constant movement. The holidays were great and so was the New Year.

On Jan 7th I had a follow up doctors appointment with the office that did my 1st Trimester Screening for Down Syndrome. We would also find out the sex of the baby at this time. I was nervous and excited at the same time. I was nervous because I didn't want to hear that my risks of the baby having DS had increased. Well I'm glad to not only report that the baby is perfectly fine, but it is also A BOY!! Yup we're having a precious boy. Derrick Lamont Jr.(DJ for short).

Another blessing to add is that in one week the Massie family will offically be homeowners! We're so excited to have our first home. See ya later apartment!

Well until next time, be blessed.
