Friendships are supposed to be a give and take type of relationship. You will go through some longer periods of time when you will be doing most of the giving, before the tide turns and you become a taker. There are people out there who seem to feel that what they consider to be friendship is purely a “takeing” relationship. These are the people who only call when they want...
It’s time again for what some seem to feel is the soft-porn photo. This is the 41 incher.
Going around where my waist used to be with a tape measure brings up a measurement of (drumroll please!) 41 inches! This means I couldn’t wear Ben’s pants even. And with us only being 29 1/2 weeks. Should be interesting to see where it ends.
I challenge you to find an episode of Martha Stewart Living that does not include a bone folder.
Here I slave away, painting the baby room on my day off work, and Ben screws up all the cool parts. I was going to take before and after photos. No camera. Where, you ask, might the camera be? Someone took it to work to take pictures of “stuff”. That’s right, stuff. When I ask if he had any specific stuff in mind, nope.
The room is now a beautiful calming shade of blue,...
There is hope. Its about noon, the room is empty of everything except the dresser, and I am ready for my Wal-Mart run. I think I can get the walls, the closet and the dresser done today. The trim will have to wait for later anyhow, as it is pulling away from the walls so Ben needs to fix it.
Elmo was just on Martha’s show. I REALLY like Elmo.
You would think being able to lie in bed and surf on the laptop would be nicely convienient,t wouldn’t you? Nope. A couple of reasons. Carpal tunnel being one of the first in the mornings. Were you aware that carpal tunnel is a side-effect of pregnancy? Wasn’t one I was previously aware of. Just the general body swelling concentrates on the nerve and bingo! Makes the typing...
Which Founding Father Are You?
Here she is! Miss America! Ta Da!
Briefly….Rebecca is still a girl. The ultrasound tech was crabby and we only got one picture. I will try to scan it later. She is measuring at 3.2 lbs. That is 90 percentile. The Dr. says that puts her on track for a full-term weight of 9+ lbs. He said if she keeps growing at this rate that we will be talking about an earlier induction. Should be interesting. Next appt isn’t...
Hmmmm. From Leesa’s reactions, should I
A: back off and quit teasing her or
B: go in for some more fun
Popular opinion will rule the day.
ok. So most of you know that Leesa and I are friends (of a sort. hehe). So two of her friends have recently suffered miscarriages/blighted ovums. After the first one, I felt somewhat awkward?(screwed that up) being around that person, with me being pregnant. If I see the second one when shes around next I know I will feel awkward then as well.
The question is, and this isn’t about...
If I were the kind of wife who continually nags her husband, I would have counters all over my blog. Countdown to Two Towers. Countdown to Thanksgiving so I can bring out my tacky xmas decorations. Countdown to Xmas itself. And, I suppose baby could have a countdown as well. The one mention I made to him of a countdown, the silly guy thought it would be for the baby. I mean, really! Two...
you may notice that the top part of the belly is fuller and rounder than the last shot. this just helps to show how Rebecca has learned to push up into my ribs and sit there for hours. not comfy.
