I hit 25 weeks today. Why do I feel like it’s “crunch time”? Maybe because: 1. Things I have for the baby = one onesie that may or may not fit when Gummy is born, depending on her weight. And a stuffed carrot sporting a mustache that I bought months ago. 2. I am still … Continue reading »

Like Riding a Bike
I had recently made reference to the fact that I might be a little frightened that I don’t know how to care for a baby anymore, since my youngest is 9 and I have hardly even been in the room with an infant since she was little. All my worries are now over. And if … Continue reading »
Wordless Wednesday: Pregnant Women Love Candy
Regular candy AND eye candy. Thanks to the pregnant chicken for coming up with these arousing, yet hilarious pictures, which she refers to as “pregnant porn”. If you haven’t been on her site, you should visit.
A Ride on the Emotional Roller Coaster
I had my first pang of anxiety today over the baby. I have spent the last 23 weeks as a solid rock of courage and nonchalance. Mike would ask me if I was nervous or scared about any of it, even the littlest bit. I was dead serious when I looked him in the eye … Continue reading »
Yes, I Have to Pee. Again.
22 weeks, 3 days…and counting. ”Honeymoon” trimester? I don’t know about all that. It’s better than the first and not as bad as the third. As Mike so kindly pointed out last night (thanks baby), it’s pretty much all downhill from here. I don’t know what it is about this pregnancy, but I’ve been completely … Continue reading »
The Headless Chicken
So, I keep coming back here to blog…I had planned on writing a funny blog on a few things I learned during my week-long vacation, but I just haven’t gotten to it this week. Running around like a chicken with my head cut off, making sure everything is set for the wedding tomorrow, has taken … Continue reading »
The Rage Within
Vacation: Day 3 I forgot how boring days at home can be sometimes…and how fast they go. I filled my morning with trying to find shoes that will go with my wedding dress that are NOT high heels, because let’s face it…I am no Beyoncé or Jessica Simpson. I don’t see how the hell those girls … Continue reading »
We’re Halfway There!
Yesterday marked the halfway point in my pregnancy – 20 weeks! It’s incredibly exciting. The baby is now a banana. I still haven’t quite figured out how the baby went from being a mango to a banana, but I also saw something on a site other than What to Expect that compared it to a small … Continue reading »
I’ll Take Some Exercise, With a Side of STFU
I don’t like to talk a lot. I especially don’t like to talk to people while I am working out. I go to the gym to put my headphones in, listen to some music, be one with my thoughts, get some endorphins, and feel better – physically and mentally. It’s my quiet time. I loooooved … Continue reading »
Baby, It’s Cold Outside
Winter is here! It’s even snowing on my blog…did you notice that? Monday, we were at a blissful 72 degrees and now it’s dropped by 20. That’s cold by Las Vegas standards. Luckily, I don’t feel like I’m freezing to death 24/7 like I was my first trimester, so I’m taking it in stride. I’ve … Continue reading »
And So Begins the Honeymoon…
I am 13 weeks and 1 day pregnant today, which means that in just under a week I’ll be entering my second trimester. In the baby world, this is referred to as “The Honeymoon Trimester”, because I’ll finally start to feel like a normal human being again. I already feel mostly normal. (Keyword: mostly) I … Continue reading »
