What else can I expect??


Dear lady friends who've had a kid or two (or however many), and enjoyed being pregnant - with all due respect - you.are.crazy.

To the rest of you, who like me, do not think it's super cool to be pregnant, please share (or maybe don't) - what other super u
ncomfortable things can I expect? (and I'm not talking about labor yet...please spare me those details...I'm living in fantasy world where my birthing experience won't be completely disgusting) So far my face feels and
looks like it's falling off b/c of the lovely acne, I've been sick for pretty much the entire pregnancy, and now something called "round ligament pain"....I'm sure I'm forgetting a few, but I think this is a good starting point :)

OH...and apparently I'm signed up for a breast feeding class - that also makes me super uncomfortable!!

At least I'm still smiling...



Above is a perfect example of what I feel I look like everyday - and not just when I wake up :) Seriously though, if you have a mac, have you ever played with the photo booth? I laughed until I was crying last night, and it was the best therapy ever on earth. I'm perfectly aware that these picture are generally only funny to the people taking them - like a funny story you can't tell because "you'd have to be there" But if you need some cheap therapy, take some goofy pictures!



Thank you Dustin, for being dumb with me...I love you!

this is a NEED, i NEED this

What I've learned since becoming a housewife...



Now I can wake up every morning knowing I have a purpose to my day ;) With one simple change - I prefer to be called "Domestic Goddess"

Oh yes...how could I forget?!



We had another ultrasound on Thursday, Sept 2...it's official...IT'S A GIRL!!


I imagine that was what was really going on in there when the picture below was taken, because she is BEE-U-TEE-FUL!!



Summer is done?



How am I ever supposed to know what time of year it is if I'm living in a place where it's almost constantly in the 80s? Especially now that I'm not working...I can't even tell the seasons based on tourist flow/convention flow.
However, after practically being siamese twins the past 7 or so weeks, the D man is heading back to work in the morning. :( So what am I supposed to do in an empty house with no tv, no internet, no furniture, no car, no books??
I can't even sleep in - between the sun beaming through the windows and baby stomping on my bladder I'm screwed! Oh - and there's that little thing about no furniture - that means no bed. We've been air mattressing it for almost a week now - and I literally have to ROLL OVER like a giant WALRUS to get off the air mattress...which is even harder to do if Dustin is already up. His weight provides that extra air on my side to m
ore effectively roll...think of it as rolling downhill vs up hill :) Seriously - I made him get back in bed so I could get out...
Praying our things arrive this week...
