So..... it is officially my 32nd week of pregnancy, my 23rd Birthday, and Kenny proposed!!!!!!!!!!!!

We went to the food store to pick up some things, the major necessities (milk, chocolate cake, brownies.. lol) and then we decided to take a drive to our "spot" in Babylon, by the water. So we were sitting by the water and he said how this seems like a nice spot to get married... and I was like, "to get married?" and he said "to get engaged" and then a puppy ran up to us and jumped in my lap and started licking my face hahahahaha - i was so confused, i thought he got me a puppy!! lol.. and then the owners came and took the puppy away so i realized the puppy wasn't mine lol... we were both laughing and Kenny began to take out a little black box and handed it to me... I opened it and just hugged and kissed him... there we were, sitting at our spot, me doing my IV, feeling our baby girl move inside me, and Kenny proposing.... it was all happening at the same time and words can't even explain what I felt.... I felt like I was in a dream... it was so surreal.

So we got back into the car because the beach was closing, and I go, "ummm, i did say yes, right?!" hahahaha!

The ring is absolutely GORGEOUS... the most beautiful engagement ring I have ever seen! He did an EXCELLENT job!!!!!!

So, we technically got engaged on April 5th and we both agree that there is no rush to get married right away... we just want to enjoy being engaged, have our little girl and then we will get married. 

This was the perrrrrrrrfect start to my birthday and I just love my FIANCE more than can even be put into words!

today's sonogram was great - Brianna was moving around and we got to see her and got some new sonogram 3D pics! They're in the photo album... i wish they weren't so blurry/dark, and they all have a shadow over the nose so you can't really make out her nose. But they're still super cute!! She now weighs 4lbs 3oz which means she gained 1 pound in 2 weeks. So, when she is born (hopefully around my 37th or 38th week) she should be 6-7 pounds!

I LOVE HER SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO MUCH <3

We go back for more sonograms in 2 weeks, and I'm almost 32 weeks pregnant!!!!

Next week becomes the start of a super busy April for us.. my birthday is on Sunday, and then lamaze classes start on April 10th, every thursday night for 5 weeks.... lots of doctor visits and just preparing for Brianna's arrival!

So.. after 2 doctors appointments today, the verdict is to go back on IV antibiotics. I'll be having my IV (PICC line) put in on Monday and will hopefully only need to be on it for a couple of weeks. I have been off of IV for only 3 weeks and need it again... already. I was hoping my cough would get better, but why would that happen? Not in my life... why the hell would anything be easy for me? I've been doing my meds religiously and taking the best care of myself that I possibly can - but why would that pay off? I guess it's plain and simple: SHIT HAPPENS! I'm not having a pity party for myself, but jesus f*cking christ, can i get a damn break?

Well... the good news is, my doctor said if Brianna were born now she would survive. So, after the IV antibiotics, I should be 34 weeks pregnant, and then 3 weeks after that I can have Brianna. My doc said she wants me to be healthy and feel good (obviously) if labor was to be induced. That would be around Mother's Day weekend. So, in 6 weeks she could be joining us in this world. I'm totally fine with that!!!

Next week is a sonogram, so we'll be seeing our little princess again on the big screen

I am SO TIRED now .. in the 2nd trimester, it was like I had so much more energy - I would just vaccuum and clean and do things all around the apartment, that didn't even really need to be done at that moment .. and now, I am so pooped that all I want to do is sleep. I feel like I have had the energy sucked out of me and I am literally exhausted, physically & mentally. I was making hot dogs the other night and for some reason went to the bathroom to put the hotdogs away in the drawer. I realized what I was doing and we laughed about it - but I'm seriously starting to lose my mind I think. If someone asked me to go to my favorite store and go shopping to pick out anything I wanted, I would say no thanks. I am that tired. It makes sense, being that I don't sleep for more than 2 hours at a time and don't fall asleep until around 4am or later anyways. The everyday body aches and pains are getting stronger too.. and the acne is still bad but I'm pretty used to that by now. Just hoping it goes away soon after I have Brianna so I don't look totally gross for too much longer.

I'm doing all my meds, and still I'm coughing my ass off every day/night - poor Kenny, I don't know how he sleeps next to me while I'm coughing coughing coughing .. thank goodness it doesn't wake him up - I guess he is used to the sound of it, as I'm sure Brianna will be too once she is born.

I see a new diabetes doctor on Wednesday, because I got rid of that other dumb bitch I was dealing with. Then I go see the doctor on Thursday for the usual weight and measurments, and hearing baby Brianna's heart beat .. I fall inlove all over again everytime I hear that.
