Is your house a wreck???

Mine is! Oh my word, is it a mess. And yes, I do care. Ok, not really. I am way too pre-occupied trying to force liquids down my throat in attempt to waylay any trip I might have to take to the hospital to have an IV shoved into my hand.

My bathrooms.... ew gross! My kitchen... can't even walk into it without immediately running into the said icky bathroom and puking my guys out. DH does a good job trying to maintain the kitchen staying clean, but let's face it, he's a guy. He just doesn't understand that the sight of last nights dirty dishes are vomit inducing.

The bedrooms... look like a tornado has passed through. For some reason I can not stand the smell of freshly laundered clothing. So, all of my clothes are literally airing out in front of the window in my bedroom. They have been doing this for about two weeks now. They still smell sickingly clean. I hate them.

DS's room is equally as messy. But with toys. I clean it, I really do. Toys don't smell or look like icky food. But wouldn't you know, that the one room I clean everyday is the one that gets wrecked again 5 seconds later.

The good thing in all this is that I really don't have to make any excuses for the state of affairs in my household. Everyone who comes over knows I am sicker than a dog. Or they will if they stick around long enough to see me run faster than a jet plane to the bathroom if they merely mention the thought of getting something to eat. It's nice not having that pressure of having an immaculate house.

Hi! My name is Onica. I am an untidy woman. And I don't care.

Home show addiction...

So, is anyone else as addicted to home improvement shows as I am? It's not like I even own a house. I live in an apartment and I'm pretty sure that Lanscapers Challenge isn't going to help me any. I mean really, come on. By the time I could actually afford a house with a yard I will be too old to remotely enjoy planting a kitchen herb garden or making a water feature out of an old sink.

But, oh it is so interesting to see what other creative souls can come up with! The color combinations, the themes, the demolition! I want to buy a house just so I can tear down a wall ala Ty Pennington. (Or in my wildest dreams actually get someone to nominate me for Extreme Makeover Home Eddition and the hottie can come do it himself).

I wonder if I could get away with a New England Nautical bathroom here in So. Cal?

Well, that was weird.

Today I watched one of my good friends son Asher who just turned one. It was so weird! I seriously haven't watched a "baby" since mine was that little. I felt like I was new at it or something. I forgot to put on his bib. Oh, the joys of a one year old with a banana! I had a heck of a time remembering that he probably didn't understand a tenth of what I was saying to him. He was very cute though and a very good baby. I might be tempted to watch him again.

The great thing was that even though he is 2 years younger than my crazy 3 year old they still had a blast playing together. It was great not having to entertain my kid 24/7. DH works evenings so he spent the morning/early afternoon with us. He is such a baby man. I am so excited to be having another one...

Things I havn't had to do for awhile that I did today....

1. Change diapers... ds has been potty trained for a few months now.
2. Bibs. Seriously, the kid was a mess! I should have taken a pic.
3. Formula and bottles.
4. Cutting things up into a million bazillion pieces.
5. Hiding all the little toys so he wouldn't swallow them.
6. Babyproofing the house.
7. Rocking a baby to sleep.
8. Not having a kid talk back to me. Oh, now that was nice!

Must have nourishment...

For flips sake! My dh has the car today and there is absolutely NOTHING in the house that I want to eat. What I really want is a fresh bagel from Bagelicious but that could be hours from now.... oh my bubbling tummy. How dare you get a craving when I don't have a car! How dare you decide that something actually sounds good and you can't even get yourself to the establishment that sells it! Your evil, very evil. You can't do this to a girl on Valentine's day. It's just not right.

Reasons why Valentines Day sucks when you are sicker than a dog.

1. Can't go out to eat, all the different smells make you nautious.
2. Can't order in. Food in general makes you puke. Unless your a bagel from Bagelicious.
3. Don't even dare bring flowers into this house. The sight of the smelly things that will start decaying in 4 days is vomit inducing.
4. You have NO energy to "let's get it on" with your dh.
5. Your three year old has demolished your house and you in no way want to make it pretty for dh as that will inevitably cause you to throw up.
6. Just sitting up to write in you blog is making you dizzy.

A Picture Says A Thousand Words....

As you can see that is a positive pee on a stick test. The result of which has had me sicker than a dog the last three weeks. Needless to say I am on medical leave. I'm already down 8 pounds. I'm almost (like two days away) 11 weeks.

We told our families on Tuesday. Everyone is very excited. My SIL Sara just had a baby end of January and my sister Leslie is having a baby end of July. So there will be a few cousins close in age. Just wish WE lived closer to them.

As for the due date... it's September 4th.

Well, that's my news!

Sorry for the long wait...

But I'm on a bit of a blogging hiatus.

Just know this....


I will be back w/ a vengeance later this week!
