Ripe with baby fruit, low on lettuce

I am getting bigger by the day it seems. Feeling more and more movement and more and more pregnant.

This weekend was challenging because I had a friend in town. He is kind of a party guy and I was put face to face with my own physical limitations during pregnancy. I felt kind of bad I couldn't show him a better time but a hot snap of 80 degree weather came and we had to walk everywhere. It was brutal. Plus I am tired by 10pm. Somehow I made it to midnight one night. I love him but I am glad he is gone because I really hated pushing myself but wants him to have fun.

My husband is still hard at work on the job trail. He at least got some work att the bike shop this weekend but all of the other work is over with. Done. He has two interviews and we are trying not to put all our eggs in one basket but those are literally the only basked we have right now. Till then the eggs are piling up (see:bills).

I posted my baby registry in hopes that we will get some help there. I imagine my inlaws and my aunt and grandma will help. I just hope we don't only get clothes. They are the most fun thing to buy but they also last te shortest amount of time. Baby will outgrow all these clothes in a year. Maybe I should make it so people can go in in big items together. I wonde if that's possible. Thankfully a friend with a baby is sending us her old carseat as a gift. I beer knew when I bought baby clothes for people but now I know that whilst they are cute and sweet in entire the other stuff is the way to go. Even baby blankets and toys are great cause they last so long.

My sons kicks are so strong now and gettin stronger. We are still going back and fourth between two names.

This is such a magical time, even with all f it's challenges. Thank you universe for bringing us this baby boy! I love him more than anything already.

My Son, OH HOW I LOVE THEE already

everyday since i found out about you has been a remarkable miraculous experience. i wanted you so badly. i dreamed of you day and night. now you are here, you are the size of a mango and just over half a pound. i can feel your sweet little kicks and aerobics. i promise you that i will do everything in my power to be the best mommy i can be. i will never put my needs or my life above yours. you are my sweet little dream come true.

i have started working on a nursery idea already. we have a one bedroom so technically it will be more of a wall and space area in our bedroom that a full on nursery but i still plan to do something special. Since Calvin and Hobbes has been at the forefront of my mind, and i am sure it was one of the many hints from the universe that i had a baby boy coming, not to mention i just ADORE them, i am working with my husband on a mural or wall painting with that theme in mind.  I am so excited. I also want to get him a stuffed tiger too.

Baby Boy

Somehow I just knew it! I am having a baby boy. I am so thrilled. I can't wait to meet my son. What a dream come true.
