So I quit my job at Walmart yesterday. I took a job as a Floral Designer at a local floral shop and am going to work part time. I cannot to describe to you how ecstatic I am about this change in our lives!!! Not only do I get to do what I love, but I can work part time and be with Eloise more often. I have been so miserable at Walmart and have wanted to get out for so long but never knew how I could. The Lord finally brought along the solution and I am so grateful.
I have developed gestational diabetes and am now on the special diet that is CRAZY. BUT, if it keeps Eloise safe, healthy, and happy, I am trying my best to make it work. It is crazy hard though. I NEVER KNEW how many carbs I ingest. It is unreal. So, my doctor told me yesterday that because of the diabetes, she won't let me go past 39 weeks. So let's all pray that I go into labor on my own and that she won't have to induce me early. Eloise is at 3lb 10 oz and I'm 30 weeks. She's kind of a big girl, so I need to keep the diabetes under control so she maintains a healthy weight.
I am started getting more into my couponing today. I never really wanted to try to make time for it before but now I can :) I'm heading out tomorrow to take advantage of my deals and can't wait to see how much money I can save! My friend, Jamie, is an extreme couponer and she's so amazing at it. I figure if I can do half as well as she does I'm ok with that :)
Our 5 year wedding anniversary is this Friday!!!! I can't believe it! He's still my favorite person in the whole world, my best friend. People act like 5 years is a long time to still love and get along with your spouse, but for crying out loud. I think if you don't feel the same way we do, you probably married the wrong person. Not to say our feelings for one another haven't changed in any way, because they have. Our feelings have grown deeper, matured. We know each other so much better now, yet there's still so much to know :) We are about to become parents together, that'll really open up a can of worms ;) I can't WAIT!!!!!
