This has nothing to do with baby

But I just LOVE my bookshelf! I have been wanting it forever and it really puts my house together. Well, I guess it has to do with baby in the sense that I no longer have furniture in the baby room :)

Baby Kicking Video

This is my very first video I ever made/edited. It looks ghetto, I am aware. But, like I always say, this blog is more for me to look back on. Also, it is just different clips instead of me boring you with my belly going up and down from breathing with a few kicks ;)

Beware, my belly is up close and it looks a bit freaky!

Blub blub blub blub

My thighs are fat.

Umm...?

I went to makemebabies.com and this is what it came up with, using two different pictures.

First of all, I don't know where this blonde hair is coming from, both the pictures I used I have dark hair and OBVIOUSLY so does Mike. I don't think the babies are that cute, lets hope ours is ;)

Pregnancy has its perks.

People are so nice to you when you are pregnant! At the erykah badu concert these ladies in the back of the line (where I was standing) MADE me go to the front and said to people "SCUZE ME! SHES PREGNANT CAN SHE GET IT FRONT?!" It was embarrassing but fun :)

On the way there however, we had to park very far and I stopped at Thats Amore and politely said to the hostess "I'm sorry, can I just use the restroom" and this BITCH said "no, i'm sorry we're not supposed to unless you're eating here...like, I'll get in trouble," I was like "CLREALY, I'm pregnant...I mean..." and she said no. I wish wish wish I just walked and found the freaking bathroom. I was sooo pissed I almost cried. I don't know why I didn't just grow balls and go find it. If that EVER happens again, I will just say "ok then, you won't get in trouble because I'm finding the bathroom regardless." grrrr.

Doctors appointment today- 23w5d

I am sad about my appt today because....I have gained too much weight! It's hard telling people that because EVERYONE says "you are pregnant!" but no, it's not ok. I was only supposed to gain a pound a week at this point (30 total for the pregnancy) and I'm at 134, last month I was at 123, so I gained a little too much. BUT, the doctor said I wasn't really gaining in the beginning and now its caught up a little so I might be ok. I just can't stop eating sweet shit! I always have to have a dessert! I give in too much. I need to try a tiny bit harder. I mean, I'm not that worried but I will try a little big harder. Maybe it was just a spurt and it will slow down again. We'll see September 1st (my next appt).

Other than that, work is stressing me the fuck out, which can't be good for the baby either. Everyday we have patients either someone is screaming at me, cussing at me, or even better, THROWING something at me (be it paper work, or money). After a while, that shit just wears on you.

Anyway, I can't believe it's August now, and the baby is due in November!! I gotta start the nursery asap, and start counting kicks! I am so excited, but I will miss pregnancy itself, I wish I appreciated it more in the beginning.

And now for kicks and giggles, here is a ghetto picture...mostly for my own references ;)

Exercise Schmexercize

I looked at how many babies I had left on my ticker and said fuck, I really need to start exercising. I ran half a mile in 6 minutes, I used to run a whole one in 8. I was def out of breath, but I didn't want to overdo it.

Today I did two comcast 10 min baby jaunts. I feel like I didn't do shit, so I will increase my running game soon. My only problem is I do not wash my hair everyday and what will I do when I sweat like a dog after a run?? So I guess I'll just run on days I will wash my hair.

The whole reason I want to is because (duh) I want to be in shape but even more importantly, it is proven to make labor easier.

To do list:
- sign up for a birthing class
- make a list for baby shower invites
- put more things on target registry/find another place (?)
- sell stuff to make money/space for baby room
