The Woes of Pregnancy

1) Our kids are doomed

My friends at work gave me this t-shirt. Needless to say, I LOVE IT!

2) Do I really look like a basketball?

People keep saying, "You look so cute, just like you have a little basketball under there!" Do I really? Is that good? Do I want to look like a basketball? And now I'm wondering, just how big of a basketball do you use?












(30 weeks)



3) What does 'fine' mean?

When I talk to most women, my pregnancy really hasn't been that bad. And I'm not one who likes to complain. But just so you all know the daily complaints that my dear husband gets to listen too.


back aches
inability to get up (after sitting)
NO bladder control... no really, NONE
painful hips
walking funny (and by funny, I mean waddling... UGH!)
inability to lean forward, while sitting, standing, anything
inability to get up
intense emotion
intense need to eat, or lack thereof
tired belly muscles
stressings over the whole labor thing
dry skin / ezcema (then add in the windy weather... oh the joy!)
over heating / freezing (mostly just over heating lately... hahaha)
memory loss and its antithesis (imagining conversations)
tenderness and soreness in lots of special places on my body
feeling like a whale, cuz I can't manuver my body


All in all, pregnancy is great! Our baby's room is coming along, and we are getting more and more excited. Matt is still working on the chair rails and crowning, but its gonna be a gorgeous room! I'm so grateful that Matt wanted to decorate the room. He really deserves all the credit! (he picked everything out!)












As for names, we have the first name narrowed down to 2 names, but still aren't sharing. The middle name is still up in the air. So you'll just have to wait until we meet our little guy and figure it all out!

Do You Think Blogging Counts?... hahaha

"The University of Melbourne study showed that people who use the Internet for personal reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive that those who do not."

Are you A Fool?

I have never been one that is big into April Fool's Day. But I must admit, I enjoy that the geek world definitely participates in this day. It cracks me up how the geek world IMs each other (alll day long... no seriously, allll day) with the one that they think is the funniest. :)
Either way it brightens my day.
