Love to Shop Here...Love To Save Here

So i have been getting grief because i haven't written at all this week! Thanks for staying on top of me ladies :)

I titled this blog Love to shop here...Love to save here because there should DEFINITELY be a disclaimer that says in small lettering of course UNLESS YOUR PREGNANT AND HUNGRY while shopping here.





I said this on Facebook after shopping last night that Brock and I will not have enough money when baby comes if i keep shopping while hungry. OK so that might be a little bit of an exaggeration, because we have money saved for baby lol ;)




So i have added some pictures so you can see for yourself what $240 from Publix looks like. Keep in mind that I took pictures of easy items. I did buy some real food as in meat for dinner, lunch meat for work, and some fruits and veggies.



Also, we did just move into a new house...and I'm one of those go down EVERY isle kind of shoppers....so if i saw something we needed i grabbed it. Grant it i probably would have saved some money if I had shopped at WalMart but i just cant seem to buy their meat. I dont know what it is about it. I have never been sick off of it, and I'm sure their are plenty of people that buy their food there, but its just not for me.



As i sit here and type this Brock looks to to me and says "Babe we arent quite Publix shoppers yet" My response is " I am" he then replies " We're going to have to fix that." Letme defend myself by saying i only work about 10 minutes from our new house, and i pass 2 not just 1 but 2 Publix's on the way home.

Ok here are some pics :) Enjoy!


  


And for those of you that are interested here is a picture of my belly at 17 weeks! Went to the doctor on Monday and i have only gained a pound. Which i dont understand because my belly is HUGE. But i LOVE it<3

Fur Babies

So I wasn't sure what to write about today. But i dont want to stop now, because im just getting started.

Even though i names the blog "Then There Were Three" the Hubs and i already have two babies(they're just covered with fur). Anyway this blog will be full of pictures :)

Our first fur baby was Booboo. She was suppose to be my our first anniversary present(dating anniversary), but Brock picked her out. I couldnt imagine my life without her, but i had wanted a smaller dog. The first dog we looked at was a chiuaua(yes i googled this to make sure i spelled it right haha) and a dash hound mix...so cute! But in the end brock one and BooBoo came home with us.

Here is a picture from when we first brought her home....

She was so little! She is the most amazing dog...she loves you unconditionally<3 She for sure a daddy's girl, but im pretty sure she knows im pregnant(or at least something is different with mommy) because lately she hasnt left my side.

Everyone always asks me what she is and to be honest im not sure. We rescuded her from Pet Rescue Judy, but if i had to guess I would say she is a lab/pitbull mix. She loves everyone, and when we come home she is wiggling her butt so much she can barely walk.




So next up and the most recent addition to our family is Walker! I had just moved in with Brock after our wedding and we noticed that Boo was kind of lonely all by herself. But as great as adopting is we werent sure that we wanted to spend the $150 to adopt another dog. Well i work at a bank and a co-worker and I went to a vet to see if they were happy with their banking situation.

The vet has a sign for $15 to adopt a cat and I said "to bad its not for dogs cause im looking for one." The vet tech said that they actually had found a dog that had been thrown out of a car :( Broke my heart and the moment i saw him i feel in love.

Walker is a Momma's boy...and i love it! haha

Since he was abused before we got him he is a little more skeptical of some people. But sweet ones he warms up to you. He is way more hyper than Boo EVER was which was an adjustment for us lol. He loves hunting for lizards, frogs, and pretty much anything that crawls.

Again im not sure what he kind of mix he is since we found him at the vet....but he is so FASTTTTTT, and he only runs circles(except when im trying to show someone) haha Crazy boy



And, for the most part our sweet babies get along! I cant wait to see how they react to the newest addition to our family :) I know Boo will be very protective cause when i babysat a friends baby she never left his side<3 Walker i think will be a little more timid at first but will love to have someone to play around with :)

Girls....Ladies night!!

So I had a few girlfriends over last night. Why is it I wanna say girls night when we are all grown adults so it should be ladies night? Right?!?







Anyway, that's not really the point is it? Haha

Most of us use to work together at a daycare so we were together all the time! Then some of us got other jobs, and we still saw each other just not as often. Then we became "adults" we weren't in college anymore! It was time for the real world and REAL jobs(dare I say it). Some of them still work at the daycare, and believe me that is a real job...100 screaming kids all day!


Anyway the point of this post is that when the Hubs and I were ready to tell close friends we were expecting I messaged all the girls on Facebook that I thought we should all get together for dinner. Everyone was down because it had probably been over a month since we had all been together.  




So we met at Tijuana Flats for Taco Tuesday(cheap and delicious!) Once we had all sat down with our food my friend Val said " So Sara why did you call us all together...are you pregnant?" I calmly answered " Actually Yes" well no one believed me and they just kept talking. I looked at my friend Allie because she was the only one that already knew my secret. Then, a little more loudly I said " No really I'm pregnant!!!" Everyone just stopped and looked at me for a second. Then Courtney decided she needed to scream so loud that the whole restaurant turned and looked at us. She the preceded to get out of the booth and come sit on my lap still cracking up! It was a dinner I don't think any of us will ever forget!!

We now get together every month for dinner. It's always a great night where we talk about well just about anything! And if your a lady( I did it..I used lady) you know what that is ;-) What makes me wonder is why did it take me being pregnant for us to realize that we need this time once a month? We are all adults and should have realized it does our mind, soul, and....well I would say body but all the calories we ate last night probably wasn't good for the body :-)




My girls mean the world to me and I would be lost without them! They know who they are because not all of them were at dinner, but I know they will be amazing Aunts to little BB when it gets here!

I love all of you

Worried!

So I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now! I just wasn't sure what to write about, or if people would actually read it :-) the answers to these questions have finally been answered(in my head) 1. I'm about to embark on this amazing new adventure called motherhood  so why wouldn't I write about that(not to mention one day I can look back and remember how it was in the beginning) 2. I'm pretty sure I have a few friends that will read what I have to say...and if I don't who cares because it's an outlet for me to get things I think about off my chest! 

Since I'm not too sure what writing a blog is all about I'm not sure where to begin?!? Does my first entry tell you about me and my hubby and the new adventure that's gonna arrive in our lives in about 5 months? Do I tell our love story(or is that done too much?) I have all these questions and no answers! 

So I decided to just share what's on my mind which is....

How can I possibly love this baby that's growing inside of me so much already? I don't know if it's a boy or a girl. I haven't even felt it move yet! Everyone tells you that there's nothing in the world that compares to a mothers love...well I'd have to agree now!!! 

When I heard BB's heart beat for the first time it brought tears to my eyes! Not just because it one of the most amazing things I have ever heard , but because the look on my husbands face was the most beautiful thing I have seen! He just sat there and smiled...and I know he was thinking " Holy crap we're having a baby" but at the same time you can see all over his face that it's also the most amazing thing he has ever heard! And, maybe a little relief their was only one baby in there (yes there's a chance it could have been twins lol)

With all that gooey stuff out of the way here's what really on my mind. I worry so much about this baby already, AND IT'S IN MY BELLY! What am I gonna do when it's out in the world lol?!?!

Here's why I worry about so far 

1. Is BB still in there? Not that i have any reason to think otherwise because I haven't cramped, or bled, or any of the symptoms to indicate that BB is gone. But I hate going so long in between doctors visit to hear BB's heart beat! I'm sure this will change once I can feel the kicks and punches! 

I made it seem like I have more than one worry, but really the above is all I think about! 

Anyway, I hope I didn't scare anyone that's not a mom yet...and I'm sure all my mommy friends are reading this and laughing at me :-) If anyone is reading this at all
