Excited for what, you may ask? Well Jenny and Tina are throwing me a baby shower in Greensboro on Friday and I can't wait for it! I'm excited to see what they have been planning all along. I wish more of my friends were confirmed RSVPs but 10 will be a good turn out as well. I'm hoping everybody who said yes is in fact able to make it, so that Jen and Tina don't feel disappointed that more people weren't there. Even it ends up being a small gathering of us, I have no doubt it will be a lot fun. BONUS: Nathan has the day off so he will able to come with me and meet some of my friends from school! :) I'm looking forward to that b/c now when I talk about them he will be able to put a name to a face. I also am glad he's able to come b/c I like that he's able to share the experience with me. It's nice to have him around as much as possible so I don't feel like he's being left out.
On that note: We have been looking at apartments again and I think we might have found a couple that seem okay. We decided, at first, that it's probably better to start off in an apartment vs. a house right away. It will be cheaper, and just seems more practical right now. We have been looking in the Rock Hill area b/c that's a heck of a lot closer to Nathan's work and he wouldn't have to drive as far to get there. We found a couple online that look promising, so maybe sometime in the future we will go down and look at them and see what the deal is. I wouldn't mind relocating down that way, so long as it's to a safe area, which I'm sure it will be, b/c I don't think Nathan would want to live any place sketchy, so I'm not worried about it. I know when the timing is right and we will be able to make the move without drowning we most certainly will jump on the chance. Ideally we would love to be settled in before Jayden arrives, but if we aren't able to we will make it work to the best of our abilities. :) If there is one thing I'm good at, it's compromise. I've always been able to find a way to make things work.
Oh man! So I have become more and more forgetful every day. I have constant reminders going off on my phone to make sure I don't forget to buy this, don't forget to email back (insert name here), or don't forget to bring this with you, I swear some days I feel like a walking post-it note, haha! But no really, without all my constant reminders and little side messages to myself about various things, I'm pretty sure I would forget to get dressed in the morning. LOL! I should invest in a mini notebook and carry it with me whenever I go somewhere, that way when I think about something I need to do, or have an idea hit me, I can write it down and then I will know where to go to find it later. :) (better write that down so I remember to do it..hahaha!)
Aside from being scatterbrained these days, life is going well. Things with Nathan and I are great as always, and I'm finding things to do to cure my boredom, so all has been going well. My mom works tonight so she put me in charge of my brother and his friend Caleb, who's spending the night. When she told my brother she said "Sarah's in charge and you have to do whatever she says." My immediate thought was "How can use this power I have just been granted to my advantage?!" lol! But I think I don't have anything to worry about. Afterall my brother is 15 and can pretty much take care of himself. At some point I'll have to make them food, but otherwise I don't have to worry about them to much. :)
Tomorrow Nathan is coming over and I'm looking forward to that. It's been awhile since he's come up to visit and I decided that since he was going to drive up I would make a delicious dinner. I was thinking about cooking meatloaf, since I believe he said he liked it at one point, and my mom has a delicious recipe for it, so I thought I would try it out and see what he thinks. *fingers crossed* It'll be a success and maybe he won't think I'm such a horrible cook after all! LOL! :) I'm not really that bad when it comes to cooking, I just need a recipe and to plan ahead and then all usually goes well! So tomorrow I will look up the recipe and head over the new earth fare and pick up the ingredients we will be needing to make the meatloaf! :) I assume when he arrives (since he's coming from work) he won't feel like doing a whole lot, so we will probably watch all the recorded episodes of trueblood I have been saving...or maybe he will want to do something and we will come up with some other great idea! :) Maybe if the weather is nice and he feels up to it, we could go play mini golf after dinner, I still have a free game coupon to cash in. This could be my comeback from when we played glo-golf and he beat me by 2 points!
Well, I think that's about it for now...until later, peace out peeps!

I know it sounds lame(on my part) but I love reading your post! I have an obsession with following other peoples lives because mine is so bland. ANY WHO, about the memory thing, yeah...nip that in the bud. I lost mine at about the same time. I started spacing out and just thinking about whats to come, or not thinking about anything at all really. But somehow thinking about nothing has taken over. Now that Brody is here the ONLY thing I think about or am concerned about it him, what we should do as far as interacting, changing, bathing, eating, sleeping, etc. HAHA Its exciting. But the moment Jess starts to chat about something I feel so bad when (after 30 min) she says don't ya agree...Im like..with what haha. Anyway...just be prepared and prepare Nathan and let him know to start writing you instead of talking and when you have the chance you'll get back to him bahah Being a mommy is the best, but it just takes a while to get your mind back!!
