try again...
so im a little distraught today.
we had our second ultrasound to try to see if this baby is a boy or girl! well, this is one stubborn baby! we werent able to see the face last time or get any type of guess as to what it was, but this time we saw the face and got an 80% that its a girl! .... but thats my problem tonight... 80% isnt 100%. i want to go out and buy clothes and get things ready for it, but i dont want to do it based upon an 80% guess... :\ so i got back in a little over a month to try again. anthony is convinced its a girl and that we dont need to go back, but 80 is just not good enough for me. ugh dang you baby!!! its hard to be excited about something your not sure of yet! well, besides the fact that its a baby...

baby bump...
so, a little update...
ive been so sick, ive lost a total of 15 lbs so far. if i lose any more, ill be admitted to the hospital for testing... so fingers crossed my new meds will work and i will gain weight! i dont think i look like it, but im in the same size jeans i wore when i was a junior in high school and had my skiiny phase... im enjoying wearing those pants while it lasts!
i can feel the baby move, not hard, but i i can sure tell thats what it is! we did an at home gender test, and that came out as a girl... we find out for sure next month so im excited to see! it was fun to do either way. as long as this baby is healthy i dont care what it is!!!

keeping up with the Senarys
so, these past few weeks, i have done nothing. when i say nothing, i mean lay on the couch, sleep, eat a little, throw up, back to couch or bed. i have been sick, every single day, and its so hard to get things done. my dr. gave me some meds to help with the nausea, but that gives me a really bad headache! ahh the joys of pregnancy right! im thankful that im almost done with that though, im 11 weeks and 5 days today, sooo.... not too much longer hopefully!
on a good note though, first- harper has been so good about this all. i play with him when i can and then have to lay down. he'll come take a nap with me, or play right by where im laying down. i dont think he quite understands that there will be a new baby here or whats going on, but he has a new fasination with poking my belly button. hes so silly and im so thankful to have him in my life. he's found a new love in life which no matter how i try to break it, i cant. he LOVES kung foo panda! when im throwing up... it has come in handy i will say. keeps him very entertained while hes playing with his toys. am i a bad mom?! agh!
anthony has also been very helpful at this time. i think ive cooked maybe 4 .. maybe meals in the past month and a half or so. he helps me clean, as soon as he gets home, hes on dad duty. hes such a good dad and a wonderful husband. we went to dairy queen one night cause it just opened for the season here, and i just had to have a peanut buster parfit...( bad bad idea...) anthony was looking at what he wanted real quick, and there was a little girl behind us. she was really cute, but just completely staring him down. anthony went back to the car with harper and i head the girl say " Dad, boys arent suppossed to have their ears pierced like that, exxxxxxpesscially not with the big holes. disgusting." then the dad said "yeah only freaks do that". i turned around and told the dad that yes, that freak is my husband, just because he has tattoos and gauged ears... ok he is kinda freaky.. hehe im so proud of my husband. he is such a hard worker, such a great dad and husband, i couldnt ask for anything more. its too bad some people make such bad judgements some times, but ill admit im at fault too. maybe i need to work on that...
ok now to the baby!!! we had an ultrasound today, and it was so much fun!! the dr. told us she hasnt seen a baby move around that much in such a long time, so she was so amazed and so we got to see the baby for a LONG time! baby looked like it was waving to us, and when we said that, harper waved back at the screen! he just watched and loved it! we got about 7 pictures, when with harper we only got 1! babys looking good, im looking good, just have lost a little weight, but doing good so far! im so excited to add another little one to our life. harper brings us such joy, i can only imagine what another one will do.... wait... uh oh... :D

so any of you that know my husband, know that he is a big fan of the UFC, or any type of MMA and would someday (hopefully soon..) like to fight! we love to watch the fights together and we both have our favorite fighters. one person we both like is Ken Shamrock. He fought in the very first UFC, so UFC 1 and was an excellent fighter until he announced his retirement in 2006 .
so... we went to a gas station yesterday, Easter, which i will put up pictures and stuff about later, anyways we went to a gas station, anthony had our friend scott with him in his truck and i followed in the car and we met there. we went in, and who just so happened to be there?....
KEN SHAMROCK!!! and his family... so of course, i had my camera with me and we all got pictures with him! it was a little weird, but exciting too! im sure he's used to fans coming up to him all the time and asking him for pictures, autographs etc. so it probably wasnt a big deal to him, but it sure made anthonys day! he looked skinnier and older... he hasnt been fighting just teaching his own fighting team. he was really nice, and im very excited we got to meet him, and see his family, including his son Ryan Shamrock who is an up and comming fighter!

whats your reason?
NORWOOD, Pa. — As the high-speed Acela train came thundering down the rails, a teenage girl screamed at her friends to get off the tracks.
But Gina Gentile and Vanessa Dorwart did not move. They hugged as the train bore down on them at speeds up to 110 mph, carrying out a suicide pact that the witness herself had backed out of only moments before.
The loss has shaken Norwood and its neighboring towns just outside Philadelphia. There were hints the pretty and popular high school sophomores may have been suffering from depression, but experts say such suicide pacts are extremely uncommon — especially among teens.
Pacts are made because suicide is so daunting — and they are broken for the same reason, said Thomas Joiner, a psychology professor at Florida State University.
"This is a deeply fearsome thing," Joiner said. "We're not wired for it; our bodies will recoil from it."
Gee and Ness, or Gee-Gee and Nessa, were funny, outgoing and as close as sisters, said classmates at Interboro High School in Prospect Park.
Dorwart's obituary describes a teen with "a wonderful, caring personality, amazing blue eyes and a pretty smile." The second of five children, she had played youth soccer and softball and was a former Girl Scout. She would have turned 16 on Wednesday.
Gentile (pronounced jen-TILL'-ee), whose father died a few years ago, was one of six children. The 16-year-old didn't judge her friends, always thought of others first and "was never one to worry about herself," said Patricia Roeder, a junior at Interboro.
But Gentile had been hard hit by the sudden death of her boyfriend, who was killed by a car just weeks ago while riding his bike. And Dorwart's parents say their daughter seemed withdrawn from family events and had talked of seeing a school counselor, even as she planned her upcoming Sweet 16.
On the snowy morning of Feb. 25, police say Gentile and a friend cut class with the intention of killing themselves. They walked the two blocks to the Norwood regional rail station, where Dorwart — who had stayed home that day — met up with them.
As the train barreled its way south from Boston to Washington, Gentile heard the whistle and stepped on the tracks. Dorwart ran to join her, even as the third girl reneged and implored them to stop.
Text messages between Dorwart and the witness seem to confirm this was no accident, police said. The Delaware County medical examiner agreed, ruling the deaths suicides.
But Kimberly Dorwart, Vanessa's mother, finds that hard to accept.
"I know she wanted to live," Dorwart told the Delaware County Daily Times. "I know my daughter did not leave here with the intention of being hit by a train."
The Associated Press was unable to contact the Dorwarts; Gentile's relatives have requested privacy.
About 1 percent of suicides result from pacts, most of which are between older, partnered adults who have endured a recent hardship, said Brian Daly, an assistant professor of public health at Temple University.
Experts say suicide clusters — single occurrences that happen closely together — are more common in adolescents. Last year, the city of Palo Alto, Calif., was sent reeling by four teen suicides-by-train in less than six months. Two suicidal students from Manasquan High School in New Jersey were fatally hit by trains within two months in 2008.
Media reports that romanticize or sensationalize suicide can encourage copycats, said Dr. Paula Clayton, medical director of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. At the same time, she said, suicides should not be covered up.
"It's a fine line," Clayton said.
She noted nearly all suicides stem from underlying psychological problems such as depression. Nationwide, about 4,400 people between the ages of 10 and 24 kill themselves annually, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Pat Carr, who sells train tickets at the Norwood station, is grateful she wasn't working the day of the suicides. The grandmother of two Interboro students, Carr was taken aback at the loss.
"It just breaks your heart, my God," Carr said Monday. "They're so young."
Later that day, teens gathered to grieve outside the ticket office at an impromptu shrine of candles, balloons, stuffed animals and flowers. Some brought homemade posters of Dorwart and Gentile, covered with photos and messages.
A few feet away, Roeder sat next to a pair of crosses overlooking the tracks. She said no one will ever understand what took place that morning.
"What happened here is going to stay here," Roeder said. "You're never going to know."
As she spoke, Roeder slowly became surrounded by a group of students who began to share their feelings as well.
Then a train hammered by — WHOOSHWHOOSHWHOOSHWHOOSH! — and the teens fell into an uncomfortable silence.
That was like a slap in the face, said one.
No, said Roeder, that's just life moving on.
