Gross....

So I am grateful to have a job BUT... our housekeeping lady is gone the entire month. Since myself and another girl, (Amanda) are pregnant, they have given us the job to do HER job while she is gone. I was assigned the sweeper scrubber which is something you just sit on and drive around.
(To replace this machine... it's $65,000) SOOOO easy enough... well Amanda's baby has shifted and is putting A LOT of pressure on her back and hip. She can barely walk. I felt SOOOO bad so I kindly offered to trade with her. I hope that since I am being nice, when I get to that stage of pregnancy someone will be there to save me! My reward for my kindness, since Monday, I have now been pushing this:

All the while cleaning these:
and these:
(And believe you me, they are NOT this pretty... only after I clean them)

Not to mention the following: Tables, making coffee, sweep and mop floors, windows, offices, vacuuming, making coffee, re-stocking the lunch room, making coffee, dusting.... etc.

Let me just say, after working with the 100+ people for the last three years, cleaning up after them sucks. I can't believe how GROSS grown ups can be. I thought that children were the only ones who accidently peed on the seat... or couldn't tell the difference between toilet paper and the TOILET SEAT. And if you think I am kidding, I'm totally not. Let's just say I have been pratically been wiping these peoples butts. G-R-O-S-S. (I don't really enjoy cleaning my OWN toilets!)

The reason for this post is to vent my frustrations but also be grateful at the same time that I do indeed have a job. (It's not easy to clean up after grown up CHILDREN when you are pregnant.) I just am not loving it as of now. So next time you use the bathroom in a public place, or eat, or anything... think of the people that have to clean up after you. And use the toliet paper to wipe your bum!

Magic? Maybe...

Here I am. 22 weeks pregnant. (Picture above taken at 21 weeks) Not only is baby Colston kicking my butt from the inside out, but he has now taken up aerobics and gymnatics. It's fun getting to feel him move around and see how excited Brandon gets to finally be able to feel him too. Though it makes for a rough day not getting any sleep at night!

And here is what I can STILL do, but probably not for much longer. (Laura this is for you) Don't mind the belly... couldn't really hide it with my cool magic trick!
Pregnant people CAN do handstands!

Holiday Spirit

I have been very busy this weekend trying to get all ready for Christmas! Almost have ALL my shopping done too! I wrapped all the presents we have so far and baked sugar cookies from scratch for the FIRST TIME! I will let you know... it was a chaotic experience. Maybe because I am pregnant and get irritated really easy but I just about threw all the dough away and gave up. BUT with help from my mom via the phone, I defeated and WON. Here is the outcome! It was fun. AND right now in the fridge, the holiday jello jigglers are molding and I can't wait to eat them! hahahahaha! Hope you all are enjoying this Christmas season! It really is the best time of the year. NOT TO MENTION TODAY I AM 20 WEEKS! HALF WAY!

PS... I LOVE my new Christmas candles!

A little bit of Christmas spirit!

A few weeks ago we went on an adventure to get our FIRST Christmas tree together! Ü It was a lot of fun and we found the perfect tree for our little apartment. I love having it here and smelling it and seeing it's beautiful little decorations! Here are some pictures for you to enjoy. I will post SOOON about our Dr. appt. and our little baby! I just need to get the pictures on my computer first!
Then we took our cute little tree home and made this....
We have since made a little tree topper so it's complete! I love it. And I love my Brandon! Not too much longer til CHRISTMAS! I can't believe it!

PS: LAURA HATES MY COLORED LIGHTS. KINDA RUDE DONT YOU THINK?
