Boredom!

Pregnancy is boring in the last trimester. I have nothing to say. Nothing to update. I get movement frequently and that's pretty awesome but other than that its just boring. I want to see my son NOW! I guess the fun stuff is supposed to be me picking out all the baby stuff but that stuff stresses me out. I feel like I have to pick the best of everything, but how do you know the best? there's no guide that tells you...any every baby and parent are different so how do I know what the best is for me? Ahhhh! Hopefully this baby will have a place to lay his head when he gets here. :(

People are Buttheads!

You'd think people on a bus would get up for the pregnant lady but apparently not. I'm realizing the jerks on my bus are just that, JERKS! I'm 33 weeks pregnant and I definitely look it! Why does no one offer me their seat? Yesterday an old lady got mad at everyone for not getting up and she made me take her seat, she was sweat kinda. Though she was yelling at the other bus riders she was trying to do the right thing, why weren't they!!???

I'm getting no perks at all from this pregnancy.

Decisions Decisions

Soooo, I know I know, I suck. But I've been busy and stressed! I have only 2 months left until baby Harry is born and I'm so unprepared. I don't have the nursery even close to done and I haven't started my childbirth classes yet! No worries though, I've signed up for classes and Brian is supposedly starting on operation nursery today. We have paint and a crib and some bedding...that's good start. We also just bought a stroller and infant carseat! Super excited! Feels so much more real to have all of these things!
So anything else exciting happening in babyland? Well I'm having a dilemma. I'm due mid November, which is obviously winter. I live in Minneapolis now so its going to get really cold but coming from Oregon I don't really have cold weather gear. What do I do? Do I buy heavy winter coats in my current size or do i try to make it with a lighter cheaper jacket. Once I deliver I will be doing little traveling and I should be able to fit a much smaller size. The problem is for the next 2 months I have to go to work and I take the bus so there's the whole standing outside in the cold bit to deal with. UGH! What do I do? So far I've purchased maternity tights to help keep me warm and a man's light jacket from target, its the shell style jacket, very popular right now. Too many decisions! I need help!?

1st scare!

Today I had my first scare with the baby.  I want to start by saying the baby is fine and there was never anything wrong but I was totally freaked.  By the time I went to my 11am appointment I realized I hadn't noticed any baby movement for the day.  I told the doctor this and she seemed concerned.  This of course made me concerned.  So she straps me into this contraption to monitor fetal movement.  Well the contraption was malfunctioning and they couldn't get anything.  I was so freaked!  Eventually they found the baby in there.  I guess he was switching sides like crazy and still I couldn't feel him.  So weird.  I've felt him tons tonight but not this morning.  I felt like a bad mommy.  The doctor didn't help by saying I should be "connecting with my baby!"  Blah blah blah, seriously.  I'm busy.  I listen for him but I can't listen for him constantly all day.  GRRRR!

Thank goodness the baby is healthy and it was only a scare!

I didn't style myself!

Here's me in the fashion show.  keep in mind I DID NOT choose this outfit.  However I did do my own hair and makeup.

It was a fun time but I really wish I had regular pants on and not leggings, i mean seriously  What pregnant lady wants to wear such tight clothing!?

Also, baby is about the size of a squash right now....and since you're al wondering what the heck that means, he is about 15.5 to 17 inches long right now and 2.5 to 4 lbs!  So excited!

Pregnancy Perks

Is it possible for your tummy to harden in one day?" I swear on Tuesday my tummy got much harder while I was at work. Its weird! Feels like I have a real pregnant belly now! I wonder how much weight I gained, ugh!

On an unrelated note I was in a fashion show for Target Employees on Wednesday! It was super fun and I got to show off Liz Lange Maternity wear.  The best part is that I got to see some celebrities backstage and watch some awesome performances!  This was definitely the best perk of being pregnant so far!  I got to meet Renee Zelwegger!  I met Bridget Jones!  Way cool right!  And we actually had a brief conversation!  We should be getting pictures next week and I'll see if I'm allowed to post some.

All moved in, kinda!

YAY, I'm finally moved into my new house. Not unpacked yet but moved in with TV and internet! So excited about that. I've noticed its super hard to unpack while you're pregnant with no television. It was so boring and I swear it made me feel even more tired! Probably the most exciting thing is that I can finally see the baby in this house! I want him here NOW! Well not now, maybe after I get the nursery set up, yeah that's a good idea, but I want him soon! It feels so good to know that this is his home and its a pretty good home if you ask me!
