Bad sense of direction

I must be having a baby girl! Why? Because this baby has about as much sense of direction as I do on a new road. I keep telling baby "J" that "you can't get out that way" but does the baby listen? Nope.
Today has just been crazy with the kicking and pushing. One moment the baby is pushing on one side of my belly, the next second the other. I swear the baby is trying to push it's self out! Either that or the baby is trying to make more room and is stretching out the walls of my insides! AH! One of these days I'm just gonna just explode...you watch:-)

My to do list for Tuesday a.m.:

Wake up and eat lots of food....check

Take a super long shower or bubble bath...check

Stare out the window and look at the pretty snow...check

Talk to my belly in a baby voice and see how the little guy/girl is doin'...check

Sit at my desk and work...oh, riiiggghhhhttt...check

Take a break for workout video...check

Make cookies to snack on later...hmmm, not yet:)

It's so much fun being pregnant!

Thinking outside the bun

Ok, this post calls for a show of hands. How many of you like eating at Taco Bell? Good, me too!

Ok, now how many of you have ever been to the Taco Bell website? I didn't think as many of you had either. Well, today is your lucky day, because I went to the Taco Bell website and was pleased to find it had more then just info on food...it has funny little movie clips from floating packets of sauce. I know, cool right? Check it out! It brought a half smile to my face, and I know it will do the same for you!

With love,
A girl who is really wanting some Taco Bell for lunch

A poem and ramblings

Is that a touch of blue I see?
Up in the sky from God to me?
I can't believe the sun came thru
My sweetest dream is coming true!

I can take the rain when mixed with sun
I'd gather so could any one
But for a Monday, which no one likes
A sunny sky helps bring delights!

I'm such a silly, all I ever seem to talk about any more is how much it rains. Of course it rains, this is Washington! But still, I mean...yeah, so anyway.
I'll take the sunny morning, I'm sure it will turn cloudy later today. Perhaps I should focus on doing my laundry and cleaning my house now while its nice out, and then work later this afternoon when its gloomy and dark. Good idea? I think so
Is everyone ready for Thanksgiving this week? I know I am! I LOVE all the yummy foods and food, and more food. Hmm...yes, food is good. Especially lately, I find even when I'm not really hungry I enjoy a good snack:) Ya gotta love being pregnant:) I think I'll go do my cardio now...bye!

My first fall

Throughout my pregnancy, I have prided myself on my ability to maintain perfect balance, even in awkward positions. Part of me was beginning to think that I'd never have to worry about losing my balance while being pregnant. That was until this morning. *que the sweet movie music*
I got out of bed this morning only to find that my freezing cold feet were in dreadful need of a warm, comfy pair of socks. I waddled over to my dresser, pulled out a comfy pair and bent over to put them on...
Without any warning at all I found myself being pulled down and backwards by the massive weight of my backside and belly!! "AHAHA!" I screamed, grabbing the air with my hands in a desperate attempt to remain upright. No good, *BAM* I hit the ground like a lead weight. Shell shocked I kind of just sat there while my husband quickly turned around and ran over to me freaked out that I had hurt myself. Nope, nothing hurt but my pride. I guess I'm not as well balanced as I thought I was.

Me holding a baby

Nope, this isn't me and my baby...this is me holding precious little Kyrie the day she was born. It's been nearly 7 years since I last held a brand new baby in my arms. The last newborn I held was my baby brother Isaac...who is now not much of a baby any more. Getting to hold Kyrie has made me all the more excited about my new one soon to come. I wonder if my baby will have dark, brown hair like mine...or if I'll get one who is bald like JB was when he was a baby:) Guess we'll find out soon enough!

What do you do when a brother is being bad?

You tie him up with packaging tape, of course!
