Stuff!

My Freshmen Volleyball team's season has come to an end! Last night was our last game. At the begining of the season I wasn't sure how their win/loss record would turn out but they did great!! They had 4 wins and only 2 losses in league! I was very proud of them. The Varsity team goes to State playoffs next week so I'll give updates on that later. I'm glad that my life will be slowing down. This time of year is my favorite so it will be nice to have this time at home.

I am going to be looking for another part time job. I've got my feelers out there so hopefully something will work out. I'm only looking to work close to home so I won't have to include a couple hours drive time to my work day.

Sunday is November 1st!!! I can officially be excited for Thanksgiving and Christmas! Is it to early to decorate the house :)

Pregnancy this far...not bad. I had several (about 5) weeks of all day nauseausness. That is gone!!! So I'm feeling really good. I'm already showing. I feel like I look like I was with Nathan at 17 weeks and I'm only 13!! It's crazy. I'm also doing about 45 minutes of cardio about 5 days a week to try and control the weight gain. Those who know me well know that I gained A LOT of weight with Nathan and I refuse to let that happen again.

Cass had surgery to laser out two kidney stones. His recovery is uncomfortable and sometimes quite painful. He did great though and will feel better in the next few days. We hope he doesn't have to go through this again any time soon.

APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY.....

...

...
BABY!!!
That's right, the Beaver family is adding one more!!! I'm currently almost 12 weeks along and we couldn't be more thrilled!
I had my first appointment today and got to hear that sweet little heartbeat. Makes it so REAL!! I'm also so excited to FINALLY let the cat out of the bag too:)

In other news:

Nathan and I have both been vaccinated for the H1N1. Some girls on the volleyball team came down with it last week and that was kind of scary. Pregnant women are high risk group for this virus...bad and dangerous for us to get it! So I called my doctor and had to take Tamiflu...it made me feel so yucky so I'm glad to be vaccinated!

Speaking of Volleyball, my team is making me so proud! They started out really raw but have come together as a team and we are 3 wins and only 1 loss in league!!! We only have two games left and I'm hoping we can finish strong. My morning sickness made most of the season kind of rough on me...early morning/all day tournaments, long bus rides, etc. I'm starting to feel so much better and want to give the last two weeks 100%!

Cass is still battling his kidney stone. He had to go the ER about a month and a half ago and they tinkered with the idea of surgery to remove it. Well, they decided he could probably pass it on its own but after several weeks and no stone...he is scheduled for surgery on the 28th. It doesn't sound like it will be a very pleasant experience.

IT'S OCTOBER!!!! I love it! We have been to two different pumpkin patches...Nathan has painted FOUR pumpkins and Cass has carved one. I wait for Fall every year as soon as it's gone so I'm glad it's finally here!

I really do have updates and lots to say...I have just been crazy busy with Volleyball, motherhood, and being a good wife, that I haven't found a good time to sit down and write about it all. Stay tuned. I promise a good update in the next few days!
