Things to do

53 days left of this pregnancy if I make it that long. As of yesterday at my appt I am up 20lbs and measuring 37.5 weeks. ( I am only 32 weeks!!) My doc said to not be concerned and we will do an u/s in a few weeks to see why I am measuring so big. Easy for him to say since he is not the one carrying around this heavy belly. I will say I def feel like I am 37 weeks vs 32!


I am feeling a bit overwhelmed by the things that still need to be done. I have procrastinated and now I don't want to do any of them LOL! The main thing is the boys room. We still have to paint and I have to finish the bedding I am making for Josiah's crib. I have it pinned, just need to sew it. My SIL is watching the kids overnight in April so P and I can paint their room and then go out on a date for our 7 year anniversary.


Last week we gave our 13 yr old cat some new flea medicine. It took him down. Liver and kidney failure :( We spend 400$ at the vet for meds and a few nights of stay for IV fluids. We picked him up last night and its going to be the next few days will determine whether he will be OK or if we will have to put him to sleep. We got him a few months after we started dating so its been HARD on both of us. He seems to be doing good, eyes are open wide, puring, slept with us last night like usual and had a bit of food and water.


My son is now potty trained! It just clicked one day a few weeks ago and he has been dry ever since. He is waking up from naps and bedtime dry about 3/4 of the time. So I am thinking that in a few weeks we might try to go diaperless all together. So now instead of buying him diapers I am spending the money on diapers for Josiah.


I have about 3 weeks of work left before maternity leave. I CANT wait. I have the 1st week off all to myself, kids will still be in daycare, then the next few weeks they will be there part time and then home with me after I have Josiah. Fortunatly I have a lot of family and friends around to help with them once I go into labor and after I have Josiah if I need a little break!


I am ready to have my little Josi here and ready to get back to losing weight and running!

Josiah Vaughn

30 weeks!

Yawning
and some smiles!

I have my appt tomorrow. Hoping I am measureing more on track and not almost 4 week ahead. If I am still ahead, I am going to beg him for an u/s to see how much this guy is weighing OR to see if just have to much fluid.
I have the day off tomorrow. Going to spend some time with a good friend. She is moving to AZ in a few weeks and I am SO SAD! We plan to go to the Flea Market, have lunch, shop at Joanns for the rest of my fabric so I can get Josiah's bedding done.

Whiney and Witchy!

I feel so crappy ALL the time. I am to the point of being DONE....and to the point of annoying myself with all my whiney and negative words.

My poor husband...poor kids.....poor co-workers....poor friends LOL to you all thanks for putting up with me!

I am getting close...pregnancy #3 has proven to be the most difficult by far. Not sure if its cause I am older (34), heavier, carrying a big kid, body knows what to do so is contracting and spreading faster this time?? WHO KNOWS!

so here's to being 29 weeks and 2 days...and some good points....

1. Having Jesus in my life! :)
2. Only 75 days left till I am due! (10 weeksish)
3. Only 31 days left of actual work! although I am considering staying an extra week
4. My friend Michelle (my long lost sister from across the states) is coming with her family to MEET us in July!
5. We now have a pretty charcoal gray van, 2004 Toyota Sienna to lug my family around in!
6. I haven't gained a ton of weight!
7. My daughter being SO excited to be a big sister she can hardly stand it!
8. Being able to sneak a jeans day in mid week!
9. Having my 4D u/s this sat and seeing my boy again and that Josiah is thriving and doing well!
10. Having a supportive husband who is dealing with my whining!
