Pre Baby Bucket List

Number Ten- CHECK!!!

Almost two months ago, Aaron and I started a Pre-Baby Bucket List. We have now crossed off number ten on our list- have a spiritual reading. It was my appointment, Aaron did not attend, but she told me a few interesting things about him as well.

I guess I'll start with the basics. I made an appointment with Kelly Muise at the Whole You (which is on Water St.). I didn't know really what to expect, I had a short reading with her once at a wedding exhibition and became very intrigued by it.

The reading started off with her explaining her gift and a little of her own history. She also told me that the session will be recorded and I will get a copy of the CD! I really liked that idea- it made it very easy to go back and take notes for the blog.

*I am going to say now that I am not putting everything she told me on here. Before she starts the reading, she asks if there is anything I DON"T want to know. If you know me, you know I told her I want to know everything. So, instead of telling the "bad stuff" I'll feel you in on the good!

So the reading began with a little about myself:

She told me that I was in the process of a growth in my life. Last year was a little hard on me but I came through it. She told me that I am a strong woman, to never doubt it and that I have come along way. She also said that I was a people person. I am meant to work in the helping profession because I give off alot of positive energy. I also "feel deep", which means when I love, I love with all my heart and when I'm hurt it's hurts right down to my toes.
I do not like conflict! I will try to avoid it when I can. I also have a hermit side, where I need to have my own space from people. She said this means that I am comfortable in my own skin.

Work:

A big change is coming! "What once was will be different". This change will not in any way disturb me too much. She also reassured me that my job is still "there" because sometimes I do get a little anxious and think it will not be.
She told me though that I will not be there until I retire. In the next seven years (starting May 1st) a job opportunity will come. It will be in the hospital/clinical field.
Aaron will be leaving his job in the next three years. Something will come up for him and it will be a job where he works with his hands (she kept indicating a key board when she told me this).

Relationship:

She told me that the man I am with loves me unconditionally and she doesn't get to say that often. He is where he wants to be. He has made a life time commitment to me and it is the "real deal".
She said I will live to be an "old bag"! She also said Aaron and I will live a lifetime together but he will pass on first. She reassured me that this will not happen for a long, long time and we will live a happy life together. I will not marry again.
Now some happy news: we will have two children!!! A boy and a girl!!!! :) :) Within the next 18 months I'll be pregnant. She knew about my fear of infertility and she told me not to be afraid- that I will have two children in the seven year cycle.
One child will cause Aaron and I a few gray hairs BUT we will never have to bury them and they will make us proud!

Random things:

She asked me if my car was making a noise- it is. She told me to check it out but it is nothing serious.
We will be going to two gatherings (ex: wedding) by the end of September and we will both really enjoy them.
We will go on a trip in the next 18 months.
We will be attending something musical this summer.
We will have an amazing summer this year.
Christmas will be very special.

Health:

I'll have a little bit of eye trouble in my left eye coming soon. I thought this was pretty neat because I was wearing my contacts at the time.
During pregnancy, I might have gestational diabetes. She say this could be prevented by changing eating habits early. Good thing I plan to!!
I will have a little bit of arthritis when I'm older.
She said she did not see cancer- but she said she would not be surprised later on in my life I might have to have a hysterectomy. It will not interfere with my life, and even says that I will say something like "I should have done this years ago!"
She knew I had a little issue with my knee. I have never told anyone that before.
My sleep pattern is not the greatest.  I do not get enough rest. She said it is like I am drained and running on empty.
She asked if I went for my blood test- I said no. She told me to GO! There is an unbalance that can be fixed and I will feel much better for it.

"Company":

She told me that I have alot of company following me. They give off energy and worry about me because I am stressed out alot.
My grandfather was there, he had his hand on my shoulder. She knew he died when I was little and has been watching me ever since. Gram was also there. She said gram died very quickly and it had to do with something in her head- like an aneurysm. She said that there was an object of hers that I have and she wanted me to keep it.
Anita was there too. Kelly knew that she died when she was young and her cause of death was she couldn't breathe. She asked if I ever feel a presence, like someone is there or get random thoughts of these three. I said yes. She told me this is there way of trying to communicate and they watch over me. She told me one of the best things you can do for a spirit (mind you, you shouldn't do this in a public place) is to say their name. It means so much to them to feel remembered.
She said she actually got goosebumps because she could sense how much they loved me.
Now this is a question for my high school friends: There was a presence of a girl who committed suicide and another girl who died in an accident. For the life of me I can't figure those two out!

Phew!! That was a lot of typing!

I highly recommend making an appointment with Kelly. She is very friendly and down to earth. I think anyone who has ever lost someone should go see her. It was an amazing and awarding experience and would go again in a minute!

Pre- Baby Bucket List- Update!

Aaron and I spoke with a travel agent on Friday.

We will be going to Orlando Universal Studios at the end of October!! We're pretty excited!!

We are staying at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel.
I wanted to post some pictures of where we will be staying on the resort. I can't WAIT!!!

I made an appointment for my spiritual reading on May 26th at The Whole You.


Looking foreword to that as well!

The "Pre-Baby" Bucket List

I have to be honest, I've been having a slight case of  "baby fever" recently (I blame all my friends who've had babies lately)! So when I stumbled upon the "pre-baby" bucket list on-line, I knew we had to come up with our own. Aaron thought it was brilliant!!

Now, as much as I would love to have a cute little bundle of joy RIGHT NOW I always come back to this- I am not ready to not be selfish yet! There are certain things I am not willing to give up just yet- like sleeping in or buying books by the dozen! I want to spend as much time as I possibly can with Aaron before we make this duo into a trio!

Note:

If little baby Fleming decides to show up before we can complete this list- it is OK!!! Just thought I would mention this before I get alot of comments that I over-plan my life and to let nature take it's course, yada, yada, yada....
