Sunday Rainday?

I had a really good day once again today! Lucas and I went to my parents 3 times today to let the dog out and it is quite the hike to get there, I am very glad I am only on morning duty with her for the rest of the week. But we did get a little break in the rain today we were able to take her on a short walk. I feel bad that she is home alone all day! We made an awesome breakfast this morning and went to Target to register! We got a few new adorable outfits for baby Maddox and we also picked up some new beds for the cats so that we can hopefully start controlling the amount of cat hair in our room because it is awful! After our shopping adventure we took a nice long nap until almost eight o'clock then went to let the dog out again and picked up some Mellow Mushroom for dinner. My pizza was sooo good! Now we are just relaxing and Maddox is wide awake kicking away, it is the coolest feeling in the world! I'm super sad that the weekend is already over it went by way to fast as usual! Hopefully it stops raining tomorrow I am ready to be able to be outside again! I'll leave you with this picture of our cat Estabon. He was reading the comics today!

rainy saturday!

It rained ALL day today nonstop! I haven't seen a Florida day like this in a VERY long time but the rain didn't stop me from having a wonderful day! Lucas and I woke up fairly early and went to breakfast with our roomate. When we got home I was already ready for a nap so I took one until my cousin got home from picking her cat up from the vet. (she had to stay overnight because something is wrong with her liver :( ) she looked better today but she still isn't eating. Once she was home I went to pick her up so that we could go to Babies R Us to register for my baby shower!!!! It was awesome, a little overwhelming because they had so much stuff. I think the best thing I found today was baby Maddox's bed set its AWESOME and just to prove it heres a picture.  I don't think I have ever seen a baby's room done in dinosaurs before and I am so excited about decorating!!!

After Babies R Us we went to my parents house to let their dog out because they are out of town for the week, then to Huey Magoos for an afternoon snack. I took a nap with Lucas when I got home since he was already sleeping and then went back over to my cousins house to eat dinner. We made steaks and baked potatoes DELISH! After dinner we went back over to my parents house to let the dog out one last time for the night. I kinda feel bad for her because she is all alone but I honestly think she kind of likes it being the loner dog that she is. Now its bedtime hopefully it does not rain as much tomorrow, I would  like to see the sun a little bit this weekend!

hello!

I have never really been interested in the whole blogging idea until recently when I started following my cousins blog. Its pretty awesome because even if I don't get to talk to her every day I know what is going on in her life through her blog (she posts every single day!). anyhoo latley my life has changed a whole lot and I think its a good time to start putting all of it into words. I have never been the best at this kind of stuff so don't expect too much! I guess im supposed to start with some kind of introduction so here goes nothing.

I am 22 years old (23 in January!) and have lived in Florida my entire life. I have no brothers or sisters and honestly I thought it was the greatest thing until a few years ago when I realized how cool it would be to have someone to share the ups and downs with. My favorite color is green I love to read and am a sucker for any kind of candy that is not chocolate.  I am a server at a restaurant called Tijuana Flats and I have worked there for almost FIVE years now....holy crap that seems awful!! Its a tex mex kinda full service kinda not restaurant it pays well and it honestly isn't that bad of a job at all!!!! I was a manager for a year and stepped down in February because I wanted to pursue a career as a flight attendant that was right around the time that I moved in with my boyfriend, Lucas. Lucas and I met last Thanksgiving at my aunt and uncles house. One of my cousins had invited him over to celebrate with us and I guess we kind of hit if off then :) we played cornhole and washed dishes together (I even cut him with a knife on accident and he is STILL around, although I haven't seen him do any dishes since that day) . If you ask him he will tell you that we me before that Thanksgiving day maybe even more than once but I don't remember so it doesn't count! Anyways he is so wonderful and I am so so so lucky to have him in my life.  Back to the flight attendant thing, it was late April and I had just started at my new job (when I stepped down I moved locations to be closer to my new home) I was starting to get everything together so I could start the application process, I had to get a new birth certificate and social security card because somehow my mom lost it! Yes I know what you're thinking how does her mom loose those 2 important documents ESPECIALLY when she only has one child?!?! I was thinking the same thing but back to the story, once I had everything I needed except for a passport it was the middle of May and I realized that I was late for that thing us girls get once a month. I figured it was because i was in a new environment it had to be a fluke little did I know I was PREGNANT!?!?!?! Me Alicia pregnant? But I never wanted kids I thought they were awful and loud and smelly and life ruiners! I wanted to travel the world and spend all my money on ME!!! Yep I was pregnant and for some reason i wasn't even mad or sad about it (just about how my mom would react) I mean come on I had not even lived with my boyfriend for two months and I was already knocked up! Turns out mom wasn't mad just a little overwelmed and now I am  five months pregnant and I honestly could not be happier. I have the most loving and supportive people around me and I can't imagine life any other way. Lucas and I recently found out that this little bundle of joy of ours is a BOY! and his name is Maddox Harrison! we have the next 4 months to get ready for him to show up and we could not be more excited about meeting our little one. I cannot wait to share the next four months and the beginnings of mommyhood with you!
