The Craziness up to Week 24! :)

I see I have missed a few weeks...In these few weeks A LOT has happened. It has been crazy! Let's see...Cody's car broke down...spent $1100 to get it fixed. I had to have a friend bring me to work for a week. It still is not fixed. It overheats in a second and shakes so bad I am afraid it's goin to blow up! So, what do we do? We buy him a jeep! There goes more money! haha :) Then...DFW decides to freeze over. I miss 4 days of work because I can't drive on the ice! The SuperBowl comes to town and was literally right down the street from me! So many stars where there! Then....Cody decides for his anniversary present he wants  lift on the jeep. So it goes in the shop. The guy gives him another jeep to drive while we are waiting on his to be finished...Our lovely apartment complex has him towed...Gotta love it! Then...I get in a car wreck! Everyone (including Sophia) is fine! Just my front drivers side bumper is gone and my insurance had to pay for the other guys drivers side door...yeah fun stuff...That morning I was driving to get my car inspected and oil changed, so I head to do that and they find that my battery is leaking. (unrelated to the wreck) It was probably from being frozen for a week. We spend more money for all of that, and I head to Beamuont. I am off to register for my baby shower!! (more about that later) THEN....I get back from Beaumont to go to work for ONE day and I get "laid off" from my job! The staffing agency calls me at 1 in the afternoon to tell me that they don't need me anymore...What?!?...So now I am jobless and have a new jeep to pay for, and a baby on the way, with no insurance yet...THEN(yeah, my bad luck streak is not over yet)...I get served papers!! I am being sued for a car wreck that happened in 2009! Apparently his back has started hurting and so he decided to hire someone to track me down in Fort Worth and serve me papers! Crazy stuff! So...needless to say, it has been stressful around here! I have applied for unemployment, and think I might actually get accepted! That will help so much! And I didn't even include my washer catching on fire and not being able to wash cloths for 2 weeks, the toilet overflowing all over the hallway, and the kitchen sink backing up for 2 days...Oh and the dogs waking us up all hours of the night barking. Yeah we bought a "play pen" for them and it has been a lifesaver! They sleep to 7am now! yay! :) I can't believe all of that happened in a months time! That is crazy!!!



Cody's new jeep :)
 My car :(


But for now...I am enjoying being a stay at home wife! I have enjoyed cooking dinners, cleaning, doing projects for Sophie's room, and just resting!

I kept having cramps while at work and I think I was on my feet to much! I still get them at home, but they have significantly decreased! 

btw...
Her official name is Sophia Grace Wells!
We will be calling her Sophie!
I love her name! :)
These letters will go over her crib! :)
I painted them myself! And glued the bows on :)

I had my next doctors appointment on February 22nd with Dr. Krombach. He was a very nice guy! I was supposed to go on Feb. 4th, but DFW closed down because of all the ice! Sophia measured normal and I have only gained 7lbs! yay! :) My next appointment in March will be my glucose testing. My mom had gestational diabetes, so I am worried I will have it to. I know this is sad, but I can't afford to have it! Not without insurance! So I am praying for the best! :) 

I finally got to register for the baby shower! I headed to Beaumont on February 11th to spend the weekend with my parents! It was so good to see them! And I got to hang out with Crissy! We worked on the Shower invitations! They are soooo cute! I enjoyed the whole weekend! :) She will have so much pink stuff! haha :)

On Feb 19th Cody finally got to see Sophia kick!
It was the coolest thing! It's crazy thinking she's really in there! haha :)

I have a lot of pictures I would like to share :)

 I gave the Grandma figurine to my mom for Christmas to tell her I was pregnant.
She made a frame to match and to sit the figurine on!
It turned out so cute! :)

 This is her bow holder! I bought the Smile from Hobby Lobby and glued the ribbons on :)
The bows on there are from my friend Leigh Gilbert! :)
She's so talented :)
I made the flower clips :)

 And this is the Bright Starts bouncer I won off of the Bright Starts Facebook page! I won this the day i got served with the papers, so it was a very nice and needed surprise! :)

 These are my completed burp cloths!
She will be burping in style! :)

 Here is her carseat! Cody's grandparents bought it for us! :)

 My jogging stroller! The only pink one I could find, and I love it! :)

 Here is the boppy my friend Mindy Frankland got me! I love it and can't wait to use it! :)

 Here are 3 of the flowers I made her! I was so proud! haha :)

 I absolutely LOVE this dress! I bought it at the Carter's store in Southlake for $5!
It was originally $40! I was proud of myself! I hope she can wear it for Christmas! :)

 I painted this with chalkboard paint! I just thought it would be a good idea to have a 
chalkboard in her room (Maybe for breastfeeding!) :)

 This is the top shelf of her shelves. 
Notice the Sophia Grace in blocks! :)
I love it! :)

And here are her shelves now...
They will of course be re-arranged multiple times, 
but this is all I have for now :)
Thanks to Jackie for the help on the pink and green drawers! :)

Well I think I have updated everything now! I have a lot of things written down in my Belly Book 2. I am trying to keep up with it all! Especially since I have time for it right now! :)
