it's official

I've friggen had it.

I want Baby Boy T out of me
Sooner rather than later

Walking is tiring
Going to the bathroom is tiring
Bending over to pick stuff up
Is tiring
Having a shower
And getting dressed
Is tiring

My belly looks like
I have a soccerball under my shirt
And it feels as though
That soccer ball
Is made of cement

AND that ball of cement
Has powerful legs
That like to hook
Under my ribcage
And stretch
Yes....STILL.

Jeez...hasn't he run out of room
YET??

Surprisingly, though
Sleeping isn't so tiring
Because I'm os friggen tired
But I am able to get comfy
Thanks to my
"4 Pillow Set Up"

2 Under my head
1 between my knees
And hugging my body pillow
That Hub and I have nicknamed
"My Boyfriend"

But, I am sick of stretchy pants
I'm dying to put on my jeans
AND tuck my shirt in

30 days?
Can I do it?
Sure, I can
If I hafta
And I would like to wait for my parents
To return from vacation
In 2 weeks

But something tells me
He WILL be coming
Sooner than later

I dunno
Just a feeling I have

I am, aren't I?

A nerd, I mean.

When I woke up this morning
And looked at the calendar
And saw it was
March 21
The first thing I thought was

"It's Rosie's Birthday today"

K, who would know that?
Without looking at her site today?
Without taking any hints from
Anything she's written?
Without having some direct link
To a Celebrity Birthday Finder site
or something crazy like that?

I would
OH...
And I'm guessing Heidi remembered, too.
(Am I right, Heidi? ;) )

And any other previous
Rosie's Place alumnis
Who breathed, ate and slept Rosie
For those few years

I hate to say it, Heidi
But we may very well be
Rosie Nerds

LMAO

That's ok
I can think of much MUCH
Worse things
To be called

:)

Happy Birthday, Ro!

boobs that don't move

Yeah, that's right
There's nothing wrong with your eyes

That's the title of my blog today

Of course
There is another
Young tart on Survivor
This season
Who's boobs don't move
No matter WHAT crazy task
She's doing

I can't even remember her name
I just remember her boobs
(The ones that don't move)

I'm always saying that
They should do a Survivor season
In the Canadian Rockies
In January
Sure, give them tents
And lots of flint
If you can survive in the winter
In the mountains
Then you ARE a survivior

BUT
They won't
Because the contestants would have
To wear too much clothing to keep warm
And we wouldn't be able to see
Their boobs that don't move

Jeez
What would the camera-people
Focus on
When the tart
With 'said-boobs'
Is hanging upside-down on a
Wilderness trapeze somewhere?

Her really cool touque, probably :)

nesting

It has begun...
Earlier than last time

What am I doing today?

Going through baby bedding
Washing it all
Putting it in the crib
(Not bumper-pads, though
As it's better to keep those out
My visiting nurse said
The last time)
Folding the rest nicely
Placing in baby's closet
Washing the 30 odd
Newborn - 3month sleepers
Folding
Placing in dresser
Stocking my little tabletop baskets
With Pampers Swaddlers
Wipes and Vaseline

Sigghhhhh...

Just setting things up
In case we go early
You never know
Better to be all set

Where am I getting my energy?
Not sure
But I have a ton of it
For some odd reason

This pregnancy has been so different
From my first
Maybe because I'm too busy
With my 2.5 year old to notice

I am carrying differently
With my first I was just big and fat
LOL
With this one
It's as though I have a soccerball
Under my shirt
That's it
Last appointment
I had only gained 15lbs
I gained almost 40 total
The last time

It wasn't pretty
I remember the weirdest feeling
Was after she came out
Your belly is all floppy and flimpsy
And hangs there for a few days

Nice.

So, just a few more weeks
And you won't have to read
Anymore pregnancy blogs from me
You've probably had it, I know

But you have to understand
I'm a pregnant,
Stay-at-home mom
So right now
You're either going to read about
Pregnancy
Or potty-training

Just the facts,
Jack.

:D

just for you, Nance

Yes,
You are correct

I DID have a ticker
but it was like watching
A kettle boil

Now, with a month and a bit left
I can handle a li'l ticker

As for my due date
It changes
With each appointment

Measurements and all
But at this moment
They say April 26

With my very smart 2.5 year old
They changed it 3 times
And the third time
The doc was RIGHT on the date
If you can believe it

So, we're hoping the same thing happens
This time
