34

-thank you notes. my handwriting stinks. And since I’m out of practice/type more than I write, I have plenty of spelling mistakes that look like I failed the 3rd grade. ;)
-In the borrowed maternity clothes pile are some polo shirts. I don’t own any polos, so it’s funny wearing one after avoiding them for so long. Heh. It reminds me too much of retail jobs and other stints in the service industry.
-We spent a lot of the weekend cleaning, organizing, clearing. I’m tired from it :b
-I’ve got a Jekyll and hyde complex where I don’t trust myself. Is it the lack of solid sleep? I dunno. Reasons I get cranky:
% cheerful morning persons. too. early.
% ladies who say they loved being pregnant. The memories they have must be of weeks 16-20.
% getting any more onesies. I counted - we received 60 onesies! And unless you give us a onesie that says “weezer” or “metallica”, I won’t be very excited. The gushing phase is over. I’d gush more over baby wipes or… a bucket.
Ugg. See? And these are all well-meaning people. So if you find that I shoot you a professor snape-like glare, just ignore. hee hee, i think i'll give out buckets for christmas ;)

ramblings at 33

-I could have sworn my inlaws said rob weighed 8 lbs 8 oz because I distinctly remember dorking out and taking his # and my 6 lbs 6 oz and saying the average is 7 lbs, 7 oz. He weighed 8 lbs 9.5 ounces. I stand corrected.
-I had this feeling of…disconnect. To cope with fear, maybe? I think the kid caught on cuz he’s been pretty active. Swimming… kickboxing? As if to say, don’t ignore me, lady. ;) this isn't bally's. this isn't anytime fitness... :b
-even my standby t shirts don’t fit right. These changes are worse than puberty. Except with puberty, at least they quarantined us all into middle school…so everybody was raging. Tho many will go through this again. I don’t need to repeat middle school. ;)
-went to baby showers. How amazing that people will support you like that. To be surrounded by people who love you (you like me, you really like me!). Mad props to my planning friends. If we were having a girl, we could name her Jennifer Jackie Melissa Melanie Charlotte Jeanette Bo Besca the third. If any of you need any baby gift bags, see me. Oh, and we now have onesies to last the next 18 years.

retention

swollen hands! swollen feet. swollen everything :P
fingers might get too tight for the rings. sigh.
anyhoo, people ask how i'm doing, and i say "good" but i think i'm slowly transitioning to "not so good" which means it's not safe for me to blog.

31

it's hard to sleep soundly. i might fall asleep in front of the tv, move upstairs to the couch, and move upstairs to the bed. then i'll wake up, move downstairs to the couch, and go back to the bed after an hour. spawn's been pretty active. <3
society seems to have a soft spot for pregnant ladies. it's nice. i'm kinda the opposite. i'm crabby. :b
