Georgia....blah.

You know how JamieFoxx sings that song Georgia, and sounds all depressed singing it....well now I know why! Im going to run thru a series of events that have happened to us for us to not have a good impression of Georgia right now, and yes its considered bitching but hey I know its only family and close friends that read this!

1. Infestation of gnats in all of South Georgia so annoying everytime we go outside
2. Our house not being cleaned prior to us moving in (fail #1 of Anderson rental company)
3. Our house missing outlets, fixtures, broken cabinets, light bulbs, screens, house smelled like paint, air conditioner not working properly (1st wk fail #2 of Anderson)
4. Series of hoops to jump through to get doctors here in Albany for Dreycin and I.
5. Derek not getting time off from his unit to help de-shamble our home of boxes, and furniture. We are hoping that this will start tomorroow....

It seems like we are on the phone everyday with our rental company, yesterday it was for our oven getting too hot on outside, air conditioner leak on the pipe in the unit in the house (previous leak was on the outside unit), front glass door lock is stuck and we cant use front door. I honestly wonder how long it was that someone did not live in the house.

All these things that have continuely happened, has caused alot of stress on me and for that reason I have been in the OB's office weekly due to spotting. I never had any spotting late in my pregnancy with Dreycin, but did early on from implantation and (drumroll please) constipation....which no one tells you that can happen. From what the doctors can tell im not dilating, but my cervix is bleeding, and is irritated. no bedrest at this time, but im told to take it easy, keep feet up. Im still exercising, BP is really good usually about 110/70, keeping my weight at 187....but somedays I retain water and the scale will say 192 or 193 and I freak out! The other stressful factor is that we are waiting on Derek's command to tell us if he will have to start traveling here in the states to inspect vehicles as a mechanical engineer. If he ends up having to travel I am going to file paperwork to have the military move Dreycin and I back home, probably to San Antonio so that my mom can help me after or even before delivery. The military continues to keep us on our toes...

There are a few positives right now, Baby Bronson is healthy and we will have another ultrasound this coming week to see him! We also went consignement store shopping and found Bronson's dresser and nightstand.....we plan on painting them and putting new handles on them....pictures to come when the room is all done! Dreycin went PEE PEE in the potty this morning! We had bought the small toilet training potty a few weeks ago, and when Derek or I go to the bathroom Dreycin will sit on the potty too and usually just make the sound like he is going pee.....but this morning I went pee and he sat on his toilet played around sat down once then sat down again and I heard the potty singing and he was peeing!!!! I was so happy, it was a small unexpected joyful surprise! and he was so happy, smiling, and listening to the song....at the end it says to flush the toilet and dreycin did just that! It was so fun! So if Derek does have the next few weeks off, we will probably go ahead and tackle full on toilet training! This morning we also started summer swimming lessons, and it was so much fun! We actually didnt get attacked by the gnats while in the water.....no wonder EVERYONE in our neighborhood has pools its the only thing to do here! And I saved $45 on my first coupon/ad shopping experience yesterday!
