Finally Friday

Its my LAST DAY OF WORK until after this baby is here.

I'm soooo excited to have a week home with my girl. Sleeping in, watching cartoons, and having lots of mom and Izze time.

One week from now, I'm headed to surgery. Get this darn child OUT!!!!!

Excited to meet the baby, but also feeling very nostalgic. Not sure I'm ready for Izze to have to share. Im one of those moms, that doesnt feel MUCH of a bond with babys in utero, i'm sure its partly because I hate being pregnant, but to me they arent real until I know them. I dont feel that quite yet. Right now, all I know is Izze.....and she is the CENTER of our universe. I know the minute I meet baby I will love him or her, but until then, the irrational part of me wonders where I will get any more love when its all in Izze's hands.

Sigh......

Progress

I'm officially SICK of being pregnant.

yesterday baby gave me a slight scare by not moving for well over 24 hours. I had to go in and have NST. Baby of course was a little comedian and started to perform. Hasnt stopped moving SINCE.

Heres where we are!!!!

Truckin along

24 weeks down, 14-16 weeks go go......


Funny thing, the doctor (not mine) told me to watch my weight gain.....i happend to gain 7lbs in 5 weeks as opposed to my previous 2-3 in 4 weeks. Well, you know WHAT....I'm freaken pregnant, and telling me to watch my weight, does not make me feel ANY BETTER, i have been watching it....I watch it rise rather steadily, and thats a hard hard thing to do. I also watch it be totally unpredictable. When I eat well I gain more, when i eat junk, I gain less.....so really, the lesser of the evils, which am I to do?!?!?

You know what I think I should do.....just get fat. Cause after all skinny preggo bitches tend to piss people off.

When it rains it pours

Everything always comes in a bundle. We bought a house, dad sold this house, we are having a BABY!!!!!! Yep you heard that right! Its early, but I DID see a heart beat, which makes this little wee one's chances THAT MUCH GREATER of sticking around! YIPPPEEEE!

"Baby star" as we've dubbed him or her, will make thier apperance around October. The nickname is of course after the place the baby was concieved. The norwegian star. And of course, when you wish upon a star.....well you know.

Here is Izze sharing the news.




And a picture of our little shining star. The first shows the tiny heartbeat. The second is of course our bean itself!

Have you ever noticed that.....

Pregnancy is contagious!


LOL, I wonder if you know what i mean?

What I mean is when you REALLY want to be, or in my case, REALLY dont want to be. And everyone one around you is, you start to see signs you hadn't seen before!

After chatting with my friend Sephanie, I'm about to run out and test....


Thinking back to when I went off the pill (not by choice, but for medical reasons) and our back up failing, not once but TWICE.

Dont forget that:

*my boobs hurt

*My dog wont leave my side

*i'm exhausted

*my period finally disappearing after 3 months of visiting!

*three weeks of diet and exercise and a scale that doesnt MOVE

Uggggggggggggggggggggggggg, lol, there is NO WAY....but isnt it funny that it becomes CONTAGIOUS?
