I have been really slacking at putting up new pictures. I'm sorry. I am just not at my parents' house long enough to look through all the pictures on the camera and decide which ones to put up. But we did get family pictures recently and we just got the cd back. So those will be coming REALLY SOON! And for all you weirdos who want to see what my pregnant belly looks like, you can see it in the family pictures. haha. I'm not really the type to take a picture of my belly in the bathroom mirror, so that is the best you will get. :)
The last day of school is this Friday and I will be off work for the summer! It will be a nice break for me and for Halle. It is really hard on her to sit at someone else's house all day and be bored. But I still think being a nanny is a better job for me than working in an office somewhere and having her in daycare. I'm thankful that I have the opportunity to do that. I know not everyone does. And I also feel like it is a good service that I'm offering to moms who need to work and don't want to put their kids in a daycare. I'm not sure if I will be working for the same people after the baby is born or not. I probably won't feel up to taking TWO kids over to their house every day. Maybe they will want to bring their little girl to my house. So we will see what happens.
Happy Wreck Day! Today is the 8th anniversary of the really bad car accident I got in. I was driving on the east side of Power Rd on Hampton. Going straight across from the old Costco parking lot, to the parking lot with Target, Michaels, and Wendy's. A blue Ford Focus was coming a lot faster than I thought and hit me right in my door. My car was totalled. My best friend Adree was with me. I couldn't move my left leg and my vision was starting to go black around the edges. I said "Is everything supposed to be going black?" And she said, "No!" And kept me from passing out until the ambulance got there. I remember seeing her dad waiting on the other side of the street watching as they used the jaws of life to cut me out of my car. My pelvis my cracked in 3 places. I got a helicopter ride to the hospital and surprisingly, I was awake and in a pretty good mood most of the time. Until I started feeling the pain, of course.
Luckily, I only needed crutches for 2 weeks. And Adree got away with just a bump on her head. For some reason it was on the LEFT side of her head, so I'm not sure what she could have hit it on. haha.
Anyway, I was only 18 at the time and I remember people in our ward worriedly saying to my mom, "she still has to carry babies." And stuff like that. So I am really thankful that no permanent damage was done. I really feel like it could have been worse. The anniversary of it is always a weird day for me. Usually I feel kinda out of it and don't really want to drive.
Anyway, more posts and pictures will be coming soon. :)
