First Post


I started this blog to keep family and friends updated on my pregnancy, and then when Ryder is born, on his life.
The picture is me at 22 weeks. People keep telling my I'm so small, I feel huge. The sickness part has finally went away, although it comes back every so often. As much as everyone gives me slack for saying this, I really don't like being pregnant. I can't imagine why people say they love it. It may just be that I was sick so much, and I just feel icky. My back is starting to hurt a lot, due to my ribs being pushed open. He's really high, as you can see.
We are all settled into our new home, and we're happy with it. We do still have some unpacking and organizing to do, but I will be doing that when my extern ends (which is on Feb. 25th).
As of right now, I'm thinking of not driving back home for my shower. The main reason being that I'm going to be 6 months on Saturday, and just keep getting bigger. A 13 hour drive by myself just doesn't sound like a lot of fun. I want to see my family, and my friends, I miss all of you so much!!! But I just don't think I can do it. I will post the links to my registries, at Target and Wal*Mart, and if gifts are purchased, they can be sent to me here in Arizona.
I hope you all understand and accept the decision. It's best for me and my Ryder! This post is done for the night, I'm very tired and hungry, and my back is KILLING me! And I can't even take anything for it! Yay!
I love you all! Hope you are all doing well, and please take advantage of the comment feature on here!!

Jillian and Ryder!

  1. This is a great idea. Everyone can see whats going on and you don't have to repeat it for everyone. Of course we would love to see you but it's much better for you to stay there. You're right, you will be much too big to make that long trip. What fruit or veggie is the little boy now?
    Love, mom

  2. Jill...I figure you probably are very uncomfortable, but hey, you still look wonderful!! There are not many women who can pull off being pregnant and looking good too... :-) You know this is Cam's fault, maybe the next time he should carry the baby to term. I hope you're getting settled in down there...is it very hot? Donnie says hi and that you look wonderful as well. Donnie says he would love to have and raise a child to and is jealous Joe
