Are we there yet?

Well today The little lady, Brenton and I have survived 20 weeks with each other...everyone should get a gold sticker!



We have survived sickness, cravings, potty emergencies, hot flashes, stretching bodies, crying Jazmine, moody Jazmine, and needing to buy bigger clothes....

Brenton hands down gets an A++. There should be a boyscout badge for husbands when they go through a pregnancy.

Now that we are growing more, I am starting to be really amazed as to how our bodies handle this...and yet I wonder...our hips move so that the baby can get out...so why can't our bladder move so the baby isn't sitting on it??? I mean really, when I have to
really go potty, and then nothing comes out because I am pretty sure she is pinching a tube...I am not a fan!

What a Day!!!

So our Big Dr. appointment was today. I wore a blue shirt to support the boys team and pink eye shadow for the girls team....(no it did not match but that wasn't the point today!)

I have created a little video for you to watch..yes it's 3 min, but at the end you get the answer to your question!

This video is just bits and pieces of the long video the Dr gave us. Sorry if you are bored, but I am pretty dang proud of the little creature I have been growing for the last 19 weeks and 4 days. Most of the body parts shown the technician points out and labels, I think the only one that isn't is the heart, but you get the idea once you see it....I mean it's beating and all!

The film is rated PG due to the shaking of a certain baby near the end of the video...
someone not moving their legs=technician shaking my stomach (and full bladder!!) to get you to move! TWICE!!!

Why Brain Cells are important

I would just like to express my appreciation for brain cells. Apparently, I did something wrong to them, and so I think they went on strike or something.

I have notice that without brain cells I cannot think and speak correctly at the same time. I find that I say things like, "I like your salad" instead of "I like your sweater" (true story I did that to my brother...or it was sandwich, see if I had brain cells I could remember that!)

I can't type a correct sentence the first time round...no no I have to read and reread and reread to make sure that I don't sound like an idiot. I mean really, I am typing what I am thinking..that's easy enough. But when I go reread it, it says something completely different from what I remembered typing. (Just to prove, I will not edit this post, so you can see what I am talking about)

I miss being able to recall things past 7 hrs after it happened.

I miss having a the brain cells filter what I say from the "what I wish I could say, but it's too mean so I am just going to think it" and then I really say it...sorry Brenton for taking that Brunt! You are a trooper!


Brain Cells...WHAT DID I DO WRONG?? Please come back, I miss you so. I fear that I will do sometihng horrible if you don't start working again!

Poor Chloe


Sorry Chloe!!!!! I don't like putting this collar on you, but if we don't get the barking under control then they are going to ask us to get rid of you!!

Hopefully we have made some changes so you aren't barking when we leave (new chew toy, blocking your view out of the window, longer walks...)

One day we will have a house with a big yard where you can run and play and bark all you want and there won't be any LAME neighbors that feel they need to complain!

So please forgive us!!

oH and to the neighbor that complained...

Congratulations on LYING to the office about how bad Chloe is
1) We are home by 7pm on most nights, and we do not allow her to bark late at night like you say
2) I am home until 8:15, and again there is no barking, and the quiet ordinance ends at 6am (or maybe 7) so WHATEVER to your barks early in the morning!!

Jazmine Vs. Her Fellow Students

Well I must start off with sharing that I have failed...I have failed at being the most obnoxious person in my World Religions class...oh no I don't even come in 3rd place....let me introduce you to our top winners!

#3. Girl in the yellow who doesn't know how to whisper, and decided to talk to the guy next to her over and over throughout the lecture...

#2. Scrubs boy..he liked to hear himself talk and so he'd not really answer a question but tangent off ...AWESOME! In case you were interested, he can read Russian...


#1..The winner and I will have a good name for him soon, but for now it's 49er puffy jacket guy...he used my idea of answering all the questions before anyone else has a chance.....Oh and if the teacher would answer it before he was called upon, he would raise his hand to say, "That is what I was going to say"

**Sad thing is this is the 2nd class that The Brenton and I have had with him, I remembered because the first class I saw him at, I thought to myself, "wow a 49er puffy jacket..."


I do have an award for the best dumbest question ever asked tonight in class. This goes to the guy sitting right next to me, who felt he was the first person to figure out that you can text on your phone as long as you just hold it under the table!! GENIUS

Okay so the question:
"Umm..the syllabus says that there are 7 take home essays...what exactly does that mean??

I don't know, now I am not all brainy and all..but I figured that meant that there are going to be take home essays...and we'll have to do I don't know....7 of them!

Okay so taking night classes while hormonal isn't such a good idea, but The Brenton said that it is great entertainment for him...to watch me silently explode at people!

18 Weeks

Tomorrow is the beginning of Spring Term. Which means....18 weeks of FUN!


I think this term, my goal is to be the most annoying person in class.

I have to deal with the big mouths in class every term
Examples:
  • Michael from stats class who was the smart kid who didn't know how to be funny but TRIED anyway!!!
  • Rusty from Accounting, (and Econ) who had to show up 20 min late to every Accounting class and the teacher would restart to catch him up!!!
  • The guy in History class that shared his angry feelings that they don't allow concealed weapons on campus
and last but not least..
  • the girls in my Advertising class that don't freaking know how to turn off their phones..one had her text message sound be the Tinkerbell chime, and was text messaging about 2 dozen times during a test...and the other girl with the phone ring of a horse neighing

Yes I am tired of having to deal with these people, and so
I think I will be the one annoying them.
My annoying checklist:
  1. Be OVERLY peppy the first day of class when we have to introduce ourselves. Maybe tell a joke that no one will understand
  2. Use my loud laugh
  3. Try in anyway to have something in common with my teacher and then bring it up EVERY class
  4. Have a really awesome phone ring of a song that gets stuck in your head easily and have it go off during class, but take about 20 seconds before I turn it off
  5. Answer all questions FIRST without giving anyone the time to think about the answer
By the end of the term, my goal is to have everyone have to look down every time I talk, because they are so annoyed (you know like the awkward testimony meetings)

I am still working on the list, it will grow and grow as I get inspired by my fellow students!
Wish me luck!

Guy: Did anyone tell you that you have the eyes of......(trying to think of the name)

Jazmine: Teri Hatcher???
Guy: Ha, yes that is it, Teri Hatcher, you have eyes like Teri Hatcher
