13 Weeks and Counting!!

Okay, so I realize that 13 weeks may be a bit of a long time to have begun a countdown, but I am just so very excited about our baby girl Sophia! I wonder if she will have blonde hair, will it be curly or straight, will she have my nose or Aron's eyes?? So curious about this little bundle!

Well, I have been feeling a lot better, after a rough 6 months, I am loving food again and have been getting out of the Foresee home a lot more lately. I have gained some weight back, which I am just loving! Pregnancy maybe my most favorite time ever! Here is the last photo that we have taken, I need a more updated one, maybe Aron can take one when he gets home from work!!

Notice the belly!! It is so fun to watch her kick and move, it almost looks like she is trying to break out of her little home! It has entertained Aron and I for hours!!

I do have a question, over the past few days I have noticed some pressure, I almost feel as if the baby may fall out, is this normal, did you feel this way? I have been referencing many of my books, and of course, nothing is listed. What do you think, what are some crazy things that you experienced during your pregnancy that no one told you about?? Give up the goods ladies!

Have a great evening!

Random Information for my Blogging Buds!

I know that this is so old, everyone on Facebook has already done this, but I never did!! So here it goes! Happy Reading!!

1. I am married to my best friend ever, Aron Foresee. The funny thing is when we were in jr high I wrote in my diary that I loved him forever. ( I know in jr high, you loved a new boy everyday, but whatever I wrote it and I knew then he was the one for me)! I never spoke to him in jr high or high school, so needless to say we never had some wonderful exciting romance, but I went to a friends house in 2005 and he was there, I instantly knew he was the man I was going to marry. It was like an 80s movie, where everything stops and the song from 16 Candles, True by Spandeau Ballet plays. It is so funny how things worked out.

2. I have the most wonderful parents and I talk to them everyday! For some reason, if I do not talk to them the day is not a good.

3. I am one of 4 children. I am the oldest 29 (will so be 30 in July!!), Jason is 28 (one of my very best friends), Richard is 27 (one of my very best friends), and the baby Katie Grace, she is 11!! Yes, there is a wide range in ages!!!

4. Aron and I have a son, a West Highland Terrier, Chip. I gave him to Aron as a wedding gift, the morning before we got married. I bought him in front of the Rogers Barnes and Noble Bookstore, I am such an impulse buy person, all I needed was magazines for the honeymoon!! I put him in a box and Aron came to my parents to open his gift, he was so confused when he opened it, he looked in the box and said,"wow, it is a dog." I think he was hoping for towels or something. Chip is very protective of me, and growls at Aron. He says that he has rabies, whatever. I need to stop treating him like a human, poor dog is going to be so confused when his new brother or sister is brought home from the hospital.

5. Aron and I are going to have a baby in August. We tried for almost 2 years to get pregnant, and the Lord blessed us with this special gift. We cannot wait to be parents!

6. I love to watch the television! My favorites are reality t.v.: The City, The Hills, The Real Housewives (of anywhere), Project Runway, John and Kate Plus 8, The Duggers show, Dancing with the Stars, there are so many more, I am easily sucked in. I am probably the only person in the world that still watches old episodes of 90210, I am not ashamed. I love Dylan, Kelly, Donna, David, Steve, Brandon..... I am also a huge fan of Lost!

7. I like to organize things: bills, closets, cabinets, I just love my label maker!!

8. I enjoy to paint and draw. I am so pumped to work on the babies room!! So many ideas!

9. I love to work in my flower beds and the yard, I am all about getting my hands dirty!

10. I would love to be a writer, it is something that I have toyed with for years. Who knows, maybe one day you will read something by me!!

11. I went to college and graduated from the University of Arkansas. Before deciding to major in History (such a geek), I had 5 previous majors: business (this is usually where most people begin), interior design, law, architecture, education. I was very busy and learned so much in college, my parents were so ready for me to get out, I was on the 5 year plan!

12. My parents bought me my dream car the year that I graduated from high school, a 1997 red Acura Integra. I love that car, loved it so much that I drove it for 11 years! I was so attached! Now some boy drives it around town and has posted stickers all over it, that car was an antique, now it is a bill board on wheels! Geez, no respect!

13. I love to write letters and send cards, there is nothing nicer than checking your mailbox and just getting a happy note that is not a bill!!

14. I really enjoy sweat pants and knit dresses! I love to be able to breathe in my clothes!

15. I am not sure why this is, but I love to be clean. I love soaps, shampoos, gels, scrubs, bubble baths, and must bathe and wash my hair everyday. If I am sick I will shower more than 2 or 3 times a day. I also love swimming, maybe I was a fish in a previous life??

16. It is hard for me to go throught the WM checkout line and not pick up the latest Star Magazine! Yes, it is my addiction, have you seen the wonderful crossword, cryptograms, and suduko puzzles in back! I love to complete puzzles. It is the first thing I search for in magazines and when I fine a newspaper at work or at my parents (I rip those out and take them home to complete!!)

17. I often have bad dreams about snakes! What does that even mean, it totally freaks me out. I think that I am permanantly scared from the snake incidents that have happened in my life . A 6ft black snake slithered down our dog run on the side of the house and then it went into a hole in the retaining wall. So scared I called my brothers to come and get it! Richard came over, I told him it was in the hole and we could drown it out with the water hose, and that is what we did, put the hose in the hole and turned it on and out creeps the snake! By that time, Aron had gotten home and threw a hoe at it (kind of like a track and field throw) thought he killed it! Why did he not throw it over the fence, I dont know! It stayed there all night pinned in the yard! I went out in the a.m. to dispose of the snake and he was so mad, so I called my other brother and mother to take care of business. Family is so good. That was not the only snake I have had a run in with at our house! There have been 6 others (including one that slithered right inbetween my legs as I sat on our patio swing! I am so Indiana Jones, I hate snakes!!

18. Sonic Commercials make my husband laugh histerically, but get on my nerves so bad! In fact there are so many commercials that get on my nerves and make me completely uncomfortable! If I am with my husband, brothers, or dad, if I see one about any women products or male enhancement things I turn red! Then there is a commercial that I have seen a few times, and it is a banana singing the word nannerpuss (what is that?) I hate it!!

19. Seems odd, but Aron and I each week have spagetti for dinner. Everytime he makes it he says, "honey, I think this is the best spagetti I have ever made!"

20. I like to cook/ try new recipes! It is not always good, but my heart is always in it.

21. I have the most wonderful friends a girl could ever ask for.

22. My family is the most precious thing to me!

23. I love making up songs, and singing them to Aron and the dog! This baby is in so much trouble!!

24. One of my favorite foods is Fly Off the Plate Waffles (thank you Aunt Cathy)!

25. I love my sweet Jesus, and am so thankful for all that he has done for me.

So, do I have anything in common with you? Surely someone out there watches old episodes of 90210!

Do 25 random things about yourself, it was kind of hard to come up with 25!!

Hello Friends, I am Back!!

Well it has been a while since my last update, at the end of December! So much has been going on. Let me fill ya in.

When I last blogged, I sent out an urgent reply for everyone to be on the look out for my brothers precious baby Penny. Well, thank you for searching but our little Penny was found. It is a crazy story about how she came back, lets just say, she is so the Houdini of puppies!!

Everyone knows that we are finally pregnant, and we just could not be happier about the news. We will go to the doctor on the 27th of this month for our first check up and will get to hear the heart beat!! I am at 10 weeks and 4 days. The baby is the size of a plum!!The next photo will be in black, I am not so sure that hot pink sweaters are so slimming. Aron even said when he took the picture he could not even see the bump (this is so why I love that man)! As some of you may know, I have been suffering from morning sickness (I have it all day and all night)! If anyone has any ideas on how to make it go away, I am so open to suggestions. On January 3rd, it was so bad that Aron had to take me to the emergency room. Do not scroll down further for photos, because there are none! That was such a rough day. Momma and Daddy came to sit with us in the ER, they watched football while I slept. I only had to stay for the day, got to go home that evening. I have been put on Zofran and Phinnergin (this sedates me, so farewell morning sickness, but then I have to go to work, so farewell Phinnergin!!!) It had just been a few days with no food and no liquids, so I was very dehydrated. I have been feeling better, and have even had a few meals since then. Everyone is saying after the first trimester the morning sickness will go away, so bring on week 14!!! Just keep us in your thoughts. Aron has really been my rock for the past few weeks, he has really stepped it up. Always making sure the bathrooms are clean (since I am always in the toliet, he just thinks it is best for them to smell like cleaning products), will get me wet wash cloths, hold my hair back, rub my back while I am sick, picking me up off the floor, putting me in the bed, even doing the grocery shopping, and he will still tell me that I am pretty. He will even sit on the couch and mute basketball and football (except for Arkansas games) and listen to me read out of the What to Expect When You are Expecting Book. He is so amazing and I am so glad that God has brought him into my life. He is such a wonderful husband.

On January 6th, we lost my sweet MamMaw to pancreatic cancer. Can you believe that she survived for 29 months with this horrible disease. She is so strong, and we will all miss her. She was a Christian, a wife, a sister, a mother, a spectacular grandmother, and a great grandmother, a friend, a listener and a big talker, so funny, just loved by all. I am a better person because of her.Aron celebrated his 29th birthday on the 12th! He is so ancient!! We had a nice romantic dinner at Coltons! Needless to say, I got sick and we had to leave, but it was still so romantic.

I have two friends that this past week had babies! Please keep them all in your prayers. Jenna had a little boy, Brayden and he was taken to the Children's Hospital in Little Rock. On Friday a friend Kelly had a little girl (okay 9 pounds 12 oz) Harper and she had to be taken to Tulsa. I know that God is so good and that he is with them. Just pray that all will be okay and they will all return soon. I met these girls through church and blogging, we all had similar issues on fertility and have now all been blessed with these precious gifts.

Today, the 18th, is my Daddy's birthday!

We are having dinner tonight at my parents house! Aron and I got him a Ball-B-Q Set, everything is golf related!! It will be a great time.

Lost Dog! Please help me find her!!

Hello Friends.

Today my brother Richard, I know that you have seen his photo in previous blog entries, went to Wal-Mart around noon, and came back around an hour later, and his dog, Penny, was not there. Either she ran out when he was leaving or someone came into his home and took her!!

I know you girls are always out on the town (Bentonville), so maybe just keep your eyes peeled for her!

She will answer to the name, Penny. She is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Tan all over except for the white fur under her neck to her belly and on her feet. She also always looks like she is smiling!! You may also notice her purple collar.

All of our hearts are just broken without her!

Thank you.

The Curry Christmas!

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the Curry house,

we were all stirring, and definitely louder than a mouse!

Our stocking were set on the couch with such care in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there!

Aron was nestled all snug in the chair-
While visions of all of the food we would soon eat, danced through his head (o-bellies beware!!)

Momma in her red,

and Daddy in the kitchen, this night has only begun (just thought I should mention!)

When in the living room, brother Richard heard such a clatter,

I ran to the room to see what was a matter!

Away to the entry I flew like a flash (okay a slow flash, but a flash, hello I am pregnant!)-

and it was there that I noticed Katie just had a crash (on her bike in the entry way into the dancing Santa Claus)! This is the before picture!

With Daddy in the kitchen, so lively and quick, I should have known in a few moments that dinner would make me sick!

More rapid than eagles, his courses they came

Dad whistled and shouted and called us by name! (he looks very serious when he shouts for us!)

Now Amy! Caryn! Aron and MamMaw! On PapPaw! Now Jason! On Robert, lil Richard, Richard, and Katie!

To the kitchen we came, and then we said grace, quickly enough we all filled our plates!

As I drew my head and was turning around, u-oh! the morning sickness was soon to go down!

The next little bit, I tried to keep my distance, in hopes that all would still have a nice Christmas!

We later exchanged gifts, and this was so great!

Aron got a little apprehensive when he received a book about Jon and Kate Plus Eight! (thanks mom and dad, just have to get him prepared in case there is more than one Foresee in the belly!)

MamMaw got Pajamas and Kate got a camera!

And we all had stuffed stockings-

and little did we know that we would all soon be going shopping (Wal-Mart gift cards! Woo Hoo!)

This Christmas was wonderful-

we all have been blessed!

Then we went home to all get some rest!

But as we sprang to our cars-

We all gave a whistle-

and away we drove like the down of a thistle (do not know what that is)

But I heard someone exclaim-

as we all drove out of sight-

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!!!

Hello Friends! I know that I have not written in a while, fear not, I am okay, just been so sleepy with no energy to type!! Well, I am back! I will try to catch you up on the past few days!

This week has just been so wonderful. I just love me some Christmas!

On Tuesday we went to the Parks home for our first Christmas extravaganza! It was a very fun evening of food, family, and fun! (some of my 3 favorite "F's"!) In the below picture (front, niece Annalee, back row left to right, nephew Aidan, sister Katie, and nephew Abram), they are all so cute! Look at how big they are all smiling, they did that every time they were close to the presents!

This is a photo of LeAnne (my sister in law) and myself. She is so wonderful!She was so great and put the whole evening together. She made a great dinner, lasagna, salad, and bread, and then there was some kind of pie that made you call someone sally or slap your aunt sally? I do not remember, but it was very good! I ate so much and never got sick, which was such a blessing, since the morning sickness has been an all day occurrence for me. So I was just in heaven!

Then we opened presents!!! Everyone loves this time of the party!

The boys received gift cards to Wal-Mart, Kate got a gift card to Limited Too (she loves that place) and Annalee was given a bead kit with like 10000 beads, wonder how long it will be until it is all over the floor? Sorry LeAnne and Ryan!


We got Ryan golf balls and LeAnne an assortment of scarves.



The Parks family really went all out on gifts this year, I got a gift card to the Motherhood store (this will come in handy since I am quickly outgrowing my pants)! Aron got a gift card for the man-store, Sportsman's Warehouse. He is so happy, and has not stopped talking about the new camo he will be purchasing! Then we got a group gift (totally unexpected). LeAnne found 3 baby quilts that Aron's late grandmother Bonnie had quilted. This is so very special! Here is a picture of us opening them, I was trying not to cry! The other is a picture of them all laid out at our house!

Baby Foresee will just love these quilts! This is such a wonderful gift.

After all of this excitement there was one last gift, given to all of the kids! Here they are getting ready to open it!

Bingo!!! Could this night get any better! We then played Christmas Bingo for what seemed like hours! Every time someone got a bingo, you got to pick a present from the basket, there were so many different things, candy bars, slime, magic cards, Razorback cups, coloring books, sunflower seeds! We had such a great time! Almost every time someone got a bingo, Ryan and LeAnne, in unison would say, "Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!" Love that! Here is everyone playing! Can't you just feel the excitement! Everyone smiled extra big, since I said this photo was going on the blog!

All in all, this was a wonderful evening with my family! I am so lucky to have them.

Our Journey Begins!

Well, I am at 5 weeks and 4 days!! Only thirty five more weeks, I cannot believe that this feeling, and it will only get better!! Aron and I are still so thrilled. Every morning I wake up still smiling and thanking the Lord for this early Christmas gift. God is so good! I am reading many different books right now, and you may find it interesting to know that little baby Foresee is only 1.25 mm long, and the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and muscle and bone formation are beginning to take shape. Also, the baby's skeleton is starting to form. At this point, there are not supposed to be any big changes with me, even though I am aware that I am pregnant, it will be awhile before others notice my changing figure! Well, please see the attached photo!!

There have not been any tummy enhancements (airbrushing) done to the tummy, it is all real! (ha). Black is even supposed to be slimming! I have never been happier.

Aron and I bought the baby some Razorback booties, they are just the cutest little things ever!

Then my momma has the sweetest friend Kate B (just love her)! She found the most precious ceramic cross that says, For this child, I have prayed. 1 Samuel 1:27

Then last night, my friend Kim, gave us the most precious sleepers and booties! They are yellow, so it would be just fine for a girl or a boy!!

It is all so exciting! I really appreciate all of the prayers from my sweet friends, and I am just so thankful for all of the congrats emails that I was sent last week when we announced our news. Please still keep us in your prayers, and we will be keeping everyone updated through this journey!!
