Its Thursday but feels like Monday

I have been out of work all week with this terrible "sinisitus" or whatever you wanna call it. Today I actually feel human though. The pressure in my face is still very strong and I can like hear it crackle and it "moves" which Im GUESSING is a good sign and means the pressure is trying to get out... but I dont really know haha. I also was able to TASTE my food today which was a huge triumph because I havent tasted what I have been eating in like 2 weeks... thus I have lost 2lbs haha. So Im back at -16lbs for this pregnancy. I wasnt trying to lose weight... I just genuinely was not interested in eating because I felt so crummy and when I mustered enough motivation to eat it was stuff like soup which is low in cal (usually) anyways. Im sure I will recover those 2lbs before my next OB appt lol...especially now that I can taste.

My grandpa leaves tomorrow for to visit my mom and siblings and his son (who is in prison in lompoc) until Monday. That gives David and I the house... running around naked much? jk. (kinda.) We didnt make any plans for the weekend because we werent sure how we were going to really feel given that we have both been under the weather but since things are looking up maybe we will get some deep cleaning done on Saturday, set up some dressers and clean out our bedroom. Turn the music up and get to it ya know? Take breaks to watch general conference and relax as well.

Sunday is Easter and we are having our family friends over... it will be a "Clausons" easters haha. David & I dont go to his parents house very often because its....um, less then cleanly lol. So Im sure we will drop off something on Saturday for the family in lue of having to spend all of Sunday over there. I am leary just dropping something off with our immune systems still being compromised... but its our family after all lol. My family is all out of town. The Matsons are not wanting to spend Easter with Megans family and Im assuming Nancy and Jen will have their own little pow-wow so the Matsons are gonna come over. Megan cooks a lot so it will balance out between the 2 families. Maybe I will go buy some easter eggs and stuff to hide for Makalah. Grandpa used to hide them in the front yard when I was a little girl, so if the Matsons are down for that then I will do something fun like that. It will make for cute pictures and a happy cub. Ill try to find little toys she would like though, rather then candy. I know Megan isnt super stoked about her kids eating candy (which makes total sense). Maybe the Johnsons will swing by if they arent in labor? Im not sure, they have CRAZY family obligations. Unlike the Matsons and Clausis... the Johnsons have like huge family gatherins and stuff. Very family oriented, which is cool.

Today is April fools day and it also happens to be the 2 year birthday of Davids oldest brothers daughter Catherine. She was born very premature and only weight like 1.5lbs. Her diaper was the size of a razor phone. It was INSANE!! So here is a little shout out to her, Happy Birthday little niecy!

I am feeling pretty well prepped for everything concerning Adellas birth. We just have cleaning and organizing to do. Between being tired and huge, and sick... the whole nesting thing just isnt kicking in for me lol. Im at the point where I will PAY someone to come and organize Adellas clothes and closet and stuff. Everything is "put away" but not like I want it to be. Just away. I was to tired to actually deeply organize it lol.

The Matsons are going to disneyworld soon. We were all going to go in September after la bebe was born but when we got down to planning it and buying tickets the Matsons realized that September might not work because Kalen is applying for EMT positions which might require Megan to quit and be with the girls full time because of Kalens hours. Well, David and I didnt want to risk them getting screwed out of a vacation or forcing Megan to work in a stressful situation with Kalens potential new job so we encouraged them to go asap. I could tell they were relieved that we werent upset lol. It would have been SO MUCH FUN but really, I was nervous about taking a 4-5month old baby to Florida in september anyways so this just sealed the deal on what decision to make. INSTEAD!!! We are going to plan a May 2011 Hawaiian vacation. Adella will be a year old, Brooklyn will be almost 2 years old, Makalah will be 3 1/2 years old and we will be able to just have fun and take the kids on the beach and do fun things. Maybe we will discuss splitting the airfare for a sitter to go with us to watch the kids on any nights we wanna go OUT or something ya know? Im stoked. I love Hawaii and want to take David to Maui (he has only been to Kauaii when we were on our honeymoon) and I think it will help all of us to work hard to look good on the beach. haha. Megan can sport her new hot pink and zebra tankini. lol. There are some good packages. Who knows, maybe we can get more couples to go to!

I am really sick of work, not gonna lie. I wish I had the option to cut down to part time but alas... Im stuck. If I leave early thats less time I get to spend with the baby afterwards. So I am trying to keep it together and get thru these next 4(ish) weeks until she is born. I got approved for my 12 weeks of leave. WOO HOO!
