there aren’t many times i wish a had a smart phone to capture and send photos in the moment - driving behind a Yaris with an irish wolfhound stuffed in the back was one of those rare moments

pregnancy colds suck
it’s not that the cold you get is any different when your pregnant, it feels just as crappy as the non-gestating ones
what sucks is that i like to heavily medicate until i pass out and then wake up a few days later when the bug is gone
not so much an option with baby on board. this “lightly” medicating crap is for the birds. i still feel shitty.

week 24
things that hit everyone else earlier (while i was busy trying to live through morning sickness) are just now hitting me. i’m overwhelmed with exhaustion on the daily. i’m ready to nap about an hour after i wake up, and around lunch time, and definitely at dinner, then again just before bed…
it’s official - i can’t stop touching my belly button. the skin is just so...

i'm back
but not really
i guess i’m still on vacation and whittling down my To Do list rather than wasting away my days reading/posting Tumblr as i am wont to do.
i’ve missed too many days of posts to know what’s going on
i have so many photos to download from my trip
plans for today and tomorrow fill up my calendar that only has 2 days left on it
one of those “to do”s is...

i’ve directed people to my Amazon wishlist for me for years and now we have baby registries on top of that
it’s everything i can do NOT to change the settings and see what people have bought! i’m SO CURIOUS! it says “gift has been purchased” all over it but i really don’t want to ruin the surprise!! i mean i do, but i don’t. i want to know. i NEED to...

“oh WOW!
oh… okay… i see… oh, yah, okay, that’s fine”
– it’s slightly alarming when your Dr says this while looking over your records. apparently i put on more weight since the last visit than i have since my first visit in total. but apparently it’s okay because i’m making up for the fact that i actually lost weight until i started...

fear
from the moment we found out we were having a baby i’ve been afraid of every uncontrollable thing that could possibly go wrong that could change our positive outcome. in the early months those fears weighed heavy. as time went on and more and more appointments, tests, and ultrasounds came back “normal” and “looking good” those fears have lighted greatly (although...

i love taking the little one to the groomer - the girls there gush over him and he just looks so damn cute when he is done (and the pleasant smell definitely helps too)
but i hate being home when he’s at the groomer - it’s so quiet, there’s no one to tip toe around in the hopes that i don’t wake him up, it’s just so lonely

sleep is being affected. don’t get me wrong, i’m still sleeping until 8am but it’s not quality solid sleep. it’s very much affected by having a hard time getting comfortable and the pains in my back. ugh.
sometimes when i go to stand up i feel like my hip is out of joint, or there’s a pinched nerve, or something else that feels equally not good. and it hurts a...

lspoon replied to your photo: what am i supposed to do now? no more daily…
You’d be so proud, I ventured into ribbons on my packages this year. I also now have a ‘wrapping’ desk. Even with the addition of these things, my presents don’t look nearly as awesome. Tutorial?
HA! i don’t know that i’m worthy of posting a tutorial, i simply wrap and then tie some ribbon around them....

“You know what? I’m growing a person. If I want to eat this Big Mac and then eat another you will have nothing to say about it. As a matter of fact, if you try and keep and keep me from my Big Mac and his step-brother, the refreshing and delicious fountain Coke, I will turn into the Incredible Hulk except with pregnancy hormones, and I will rip off the arms you used to steal my cheeseburger.”...

sometimes i follow people on tumblr because they post pictures of yummy looking food that inspires me to stop eating the mini hershey bar currently at my lips and get up and make something better for VanDamme

judge not lest ye be judged
(did i get that right? it’s something like that, right??)
one day not too long ago (well before the baby on board) i woke up and realized my undies were too small. they just felt a bit snug in the bum and when i went to the store to try on the next size up i realized the error of my ways, i’d probably been wearing too small undies for a couple of years at least. but i invest alot of...
