It's real! I saw it on TV

Well I had my first ultrasound done today! We are 9 weeks along!! My due date is staying at October 27th. It was really cool to see Cletus on the screen. I giggled when I heard the heartbeat. Then they took so much blood I thought they were gonna drain me dry! I really think seeing Cletus on the screen made everything sink in. I guess just missing my period wasn't enough in my mind. But seeing it was like "Oh my God it is real"
Well this has been a nice long weekend for me but I have to go back to work tomorrow...poop! Being on my feet all night long and building trucks is very draining for me now. I don't think I've ever felt so tired! I'm kinda hoping that I don't work too far into the summer because it is going to be so hot in there and carrying around the extra baby weight is going to suck! I talked to the doc today about any weight restrictions. Right now she told me the limit is about 25 pounds, which is what I lift every day at work, but we will have to evaluate how I'm feeling later on in the pregnancy to see if she's gonna restricted me more. Well that's it for now..so meet Cletus!
later!!

Anybody got a boat??

Well I think I've officially have seen enough rain in the last two days to last me a lifetime!! I hate this crappy weather. Nothing like having a pack of wet dogs to have to dry off every time they have to go outside to go potty!! Now that is a chore in itself!
I'm so happy to have a 4 day work week!! We have Friday off for a spring holiday aka Good Friday. I'm also off work on Monday so I have a 4 day weekend..YAY!! I go to my first doctors appointment and ultrasound on Monday. I have got to remember to write down any questions I have for her or any info that I need to give her concerning my job. Part of me would love to get out of that plant until after the baby is born but part of me knows I would be bored to tears sitting at home all the time. I hate being torn..Ahhhh!!!
I was kinda pissed off yesterday because I didn't get to go to a funeral with my hubby. Of course crappy Toyota put a stop to that. They claim to balance family and work time but that is only when the balancing is in their favor..bastards!! I'm so tired of that place I can't wait until some day when I can justify quiting!! Right now just isn't the right time especially with a little one on the way. Well I think I'm done babbling for now.
Later!

Aww...the weekend

I'm so glad it's the weekend!! I've made it through another wonderful week at work. There is a chemical that I use at work that my doctor had some concern about because I'm pregnant. Well earlier this week they hooked a air monitor to me for a couple hours while I worked. Then come to find out that they won't have the results for a couple of weeks...hmmmmm...should I be concerned until the results come in?? I'm trying not to, the specialist who came down to talk to me told me that it was safe for me to be around. You think Toyota being the company it is wouldn't want to risk a law suit because they had me use a chemical that made my baby come out with 3 arms or 1 leg. So I'm going to put faith in the company that I work for and try not to think the worst. Plus since the plant has been around for over 10 years now I'm sure I'm not the first pregnant woman who has had to work around it.
Well I'm really ready for all this snow to be done with. Driving to work Friday really sucked! Thankfully the drive home wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. All I thought of was next year when I have an infant that I have to transport back and forth in the car with the weather like this. I just can't see risking an accident with a baby in the car just to go build trucks that nobody's buying because gas prices are sky high!!!!! I guess my priorities are going to change alot this time next year. Either that or I'll be looking for a new job where I won't have to worry about getting in trouble if I miss work because I don't want to drive my child on the snowy, slick roads.
Well that's all for now
Later....taters!!
