When your unborn baby boy tries to pull a fast one on you...

Last week, I had an appointment with my doctor to see how things were going with the pregnancy (I'm 16 weeks, 3 days as of today) When the doctor tried to get my baby's heartbeat, she couldn't find it. She used two different handheld monitors to find the heartbeat with no such luck. I began to panic, thinking something was wrong with my baby. The doctor decided to bring in the ultrasound to help better measure the heartbeat. Sure enough, my little boy was kicking and moving like crazy on the screen, hence why she couldn't read the heartbeat on her handheld. Little dude was a busy body!). Even my doctor chuckled at the situation. A few seconds later, I had a listen at the heartbeat. I was so relieved that my baby was perfectly fine.
This appointment came a day or so after I first felt the baby move. It was the most magical feeling I've ever experienced.

Now that the appointment has come and gone, this is so typical of the type of child I would bring into the world, LOL! Little dude making you think something is wrong, then psyching you out. I can only imagine the shenanigans my son will involve himself in once he is born.
I have another appointment in a few weeks for the level 2 ultrasound. Seriously looking forward to seeing my little boy again. He better behave this time, LOL!

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.

We as viewers followed Chef Ramsay as he ventured from restaurant to restaurant trying to save the failing businesses and repair broken relationships. The series aired for 7 seasons before ending in 2014. Since Gordon Ramsay ended 'Kitchen Nightmares,' many fans wonder which restaurants have stood the test of time, and which ones did not. As of right now, the restaurant closure rate stands at a shocking 69%. The restaurants that are still in operation stands at 31%. Most of the restaurants featured earlier in the series have since closed.
