Day 3: Your first Love.

Your First Love

Wow. Way to make me think back.
I honestly have to say my first true love was music.
I have always loved music from day one!
Be it singing, playing the flute, or the radio.
Anything really.
I love music.

But I do have to say that my first love was Nick.
It was a high school love that I definitely learned a lot from and that shaped a lot of my perspective on love.
Though, now I have met my fiance Jake, and I believe that he is definitely my true love.
He is amazing in so many ways.
We are both learning and growing together.
I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with him.

Love is such a strong word, and used so lightly.
I am such a hipocrit in saying that but it is true.
It definitely means something different to everyone, and there are so many different kinds of love!

I do have to say:
I love my family.
I love my fiance.
I love my dogs.
I love my baby.
I love music.
I love food.
I love sleep.

And again, the word used lightly, and so often.
But definitely a different type of love for each!

Mommy to Be! :)

Day 2: Nicknames

Nicknames

I have never really been a big nickname person!
I have the normal nicknames like "Meg" "Hey Dekker"
There is the good ones like "dork" and "love"
And the bad.... Like "b*tch"...

But over all I think the unique ones that I do have are or have been:
"Meggerz" -From highs chool
"Sparx" -old group of friends
"Skittles" -a friend
"Mego-Lego" -my cousin

Not such an exciting topic! lol, but that is all the nicknames that I can think of!

~*~

Other then that, not much is really going on.
I just finished a really nice weekend with Jake.
We got a lot figured out, the house cleaned.
I feel a TON better!

Day 1!

Introduction, Recent Picture of myself, and 15 awesome facts!

Well, I am Megan and I am 24 years. I live with my fiance and 3 dogs!

Strait to the facts!

1. I am currently 18 weeks pregnant! This is my first pregnancy and child, and it is such a learning experience!

2. I am terrified of ink on my skin. Including but not limited to pen marks, tattoos, markers etc. I can handle stamps to get into things like clubs and such. But other then that no ink please!

3. I love musicals! I am a closet Broadway singer, or a professional "in-the-car-belting-your-heart-out" singer! Which ever you prefer! :P My best friend and fiance want to drug me and make me sing for American Idol or something. I think: not gonna happen!

4. I have Adult ADHD. Yup. It's not too bad, some days are better then others. I do have to say though that... squirrel!

5. I am a certified Early Childhood Education teacher. I do love working with kids, even though it is not currently what I am doing.

6. I love country! Line dancing, music, cowboys, horses, the works.

7. I love animals. If I could adopt every animal out there I would. But for now, 3 dogs is plenty!

8. One of my dreams is to travel to Europe and see and experience everything! The major one: Paris Opera House. <3

9. Italian food is my favorite! Especially tortellini. Yummmm!!

10. I am the oldest of 5 kids. Including (youngest to oldest): Jake, Taylor, Grace, Patrick and I. I love them! I am really close with my brother Patrick. He is my best friend.

11. I still have all 4 of my wisdom teeth. Yup, just never had them removed. How weird is that?

12. I was born in Monterey, California. Yup, but I moved to Colorado when I was 3! My dad was in the army, and was stationed out there. My immediate family is mostly from Colorado though.

13. I am not currently allergic to anything, I don't even really have allergies! How lucky is that? Although now that I just jinxed it...

14. I color coordinate everything! (Can ya tell?) I am very color (and label) orientated.

15. I really enjoy sleeping. If I could sleep 24/7 I probably would. Something about a comfortable bed, tons of pillows and a few Zzz's sounds amazing!

In a Funk.

Have totally been in a major rut lately.
In a funk.
No motivation, drive etc.

Kind of embarrasing but it's even to the point I can't even peel myself out of bed to clean the house, walk the dogs, cook or even hang out with friends.
I don't know if it's a pregnancy thing, or something else.
My sleep schedule is off, my appetite is whack.
Any pointers or insight?

~*~


18 weeks!
I haven't felt baby move yet, but I know it's coming.
Excited!!
We find out the sex of the baby on March 5th!

~*~

I am looking for a part time job.
Jake and I have decided I am going to be a stay at home mom.
I am thinking of doing a direct sales type of thing.
Either Scentsy or Heritage Makers.
Haven't devided.

Anyways!

And so it goes.

12 weeks, 4 days.
(Taken in the emergancy room after the accident)

I am officially 13 weeks as of today!
Pretty exciting!
~*~
Oh you didn't hear?
Yup, I was in a car accident Saturday, January 14th.
Let me tell you how much fun that was NOT.
I had just dropped Yvette off at her car (at my moms house in Littleton) and was taking my sister and her 2 friends back to my sisters dads house. (I even had my dogs Abby and Lily in the Honda with us) 
Literally 5 minutes if not less from our moms house.
An elderly lady ran a red light at the Bowles and Simms intersection and I didn't even have time to hit my breaks.
Whamo.
 She was going pretty fast! I had the green light. Insane to say the least.
To make it even better, she denied even being in the accident at first.
My conclusion is:
Old people should not drive!
She almost killed 4 people!
Thank god we all had our seat belts on and everyone is ok! Including BABY!
~*~
The two new wedding venue choices are:

The Pines at Genesee
I visted this one and like it ALOT!

or

The Crystal Rose
Not very set on this one... hmm?

Let me know what you think?!
~*~
Jake comes home this weekend. He has been gone forever it seems like this time!
Can't wait to see him!
<3

Life happens.

Fingers and toes!
Jake and I saw the baby move for the first time today at the Doctor.
I'll admit it, I cried.
It was SO amazing.

To tell you the truth, I started bleeding again last night, and thought I was going to hear bad news at the Dr's office today.
I didn't.
The baby is healthy and everything is fine!
Happy.
Next appointment is at 15 weeks, February 6th...
Possibly find out the sex of the baby!!!
~*~

So, have been keeping up with researching the Wedding Venues.
Narrowed it down to 2 places so far:

1. The Dunafon Castle

OR

2. The Dove House (Not Gate House)

And I still plan on looking up some other places.
Those are the 2 that I liked the best out of all the places my friends recommended.
Thank you guys!!!

Anyways.
I am really conteplating finding another job.
I believe I am just getting bored with the one that I have.
Maybe I will go back to teaching.
I kind of miss working with kids.
I might go back to school to become director certified.
Sounds like a good idea!
Who knows what this year will bring!
:)

 I definitely have my work cut out for me this year between baby, and planning a wedding!
