How I spent my morning…

Hubby woke up an hour late for work. I may or may not have  secretly let him sleep in because he hasn’t been sleeping well the last few days and I sleep much better when he’s in bed. Oops! I then decided I would wake up at 8:30 and start my day… well kinda when hubs left for work I remembered I had pure deliciousness on my counter and poured a glass of milk and headed back to bed.

brownie

Have you been to Babe’s bakery? The desserts are so good! Their customer service is horrible! Seriously, I’ve NEVER been disappointed by the marshmallow/chocolate brownie and I’ve NEVER been treated kindly there. If any bakery in town was half as tasty as them I would not support them- that’s the honest truth!

Anyway, I laid in bed eating the brownie and no I didn’t share with anyone, the only reason there is 2 forks is because I can’t cross contaminate (yes I’m weird like that). While eating I watched CMT music videos- I love doing this but it’s so time consuming and when I decided it was probably time to get up and moving for the day baby girl decided to start wiggling/kicking/fist pumping/summersaults/ whatever she was doing in there she was going crazy- maybe she got a sugar rush? I took a few minutes to just sit and watch her move around- what a miracle! I feel so lucky to be bringing this precious life into the world and a part of me wonders what I’ve done to deserve this- we are so fortunate! So blessed! And although our lives will never be the same I’m looking forward to all the changes. It’s amazing the amount of love you can feel toward such a little human that you haven’t even met. I can’t wait to be a mommy!

Day so far=success! All before noon. I love days like this and have I mentioned I love vacation, because I definitely do! The plan for the rest of the day is: lunch with hubby, Wal-mart, some baby organizing and maybe rent a movie (or two) and sit on the couch and relax the night away. Be jealous Smile

32 weeks…

This morning we got a 3-D ultrasound. Baby girl didn’t want to show us anything but her backside, after the ultrasound tech beat on my stomach long and hard enough she gave us a sneak peak of her precious little face and side profile- then she was over us invading her privacy. The lady said she looks chunky (oh great!) she has a round little face and loved her hands right up by her mouth (no sucking your thumb kid, I’m serious!). I was relieved to see a perfect little nose in all the pictures, unlike her mommas. But during the ultrasound there was a side view that made her nose look quite pointy… lets hope my eyes were seeing things.

3-d

As for me: I’m doing good. Exceptionally well I feel like. Still working full-time but looking to cut back to 5 days a week and maybe only 6-7 hour days (it’s been a long stretch of 6 days/week and overtime). I’ve had a little bit of swelling and apparently that’s normal and ok I just need to drink more fluids and elevate my feet. My belly is definitely getting big, and the bigger it gets the harder time I have sleeping. Luckily, I fall to sleep easy I just wake up a lot when I can’t get or stay comfortable.

As for David: he is doing good too. Getting excited and anxious for baby to come. He’s too cute when he talks to her. We’re already giving her a heads up on what we expect out of her and how she will and won’t behave. David accidently told her she didn’t have to do anything she doesn’t want to do, I interrupted and said unless your parents ask you to. He went to give my belly a kiss the other morning before he left to work and right as he leaned in she kicked him right in the mouth, I thought it was funny he was a little shocked- haha!

Last weekend while I was at work, David was busy doing this:

room 

it’s just a sneak peek of what’s to come but I love it! I love pink! I hope my little girl isn’t a tomboy, but if she wants her room painted forest blue at the age of 6… well we will cross that bridge if and when it gets to that point.

Lately…

I’ve been thinking, and I think too much. I am aware of this, I worry too much as well. Mostly, I worry and think about things that I can not change- silly I know! As I’ve been cutting entirely too much hair there is one thing I keep thinking/worrying about and that’s baldness. Maybe because I worked with a girl who swears she started loosing hair after having her baby, but also thinks her hair was thicker than ever before while pregnant. So you think I’m worried about losing my hair? Nope, I’m pretty confident in my luxurious locks however in my husbands… not so much. I’ve seen so many men that are loosing their hair at such a young age, younger than my hubs and then I started blog stalking which I also do to much and I’ve came to the realization your husbands are bald! No offense… sorry. In David’s defense he is not even thinning, they have products for that I would get him on right away if I noticed the first bit happening (it’s called Nioxin, and I’m a believer). My father-in-law has a head full of nice silver hair, and although it's been said you get your hair traits from your mother’s side my hubs hair is exactly like his dads- minus the color.

But… what if he starts to thin like this…

or this…

Heaven help us all. I just don’t know if I could love him the same, I’m lying! I swear I love my hubby for all the right reasons! Weird, I used to find bald-ing men more attractive I dated a few and thought it made them more responsible looking… or something. However, I hope my husband NEVER looses his hair!

p.s. My dad has always been bald, I never remember him with hair! It never bothered him and it never bothered me, it also doesn’t bother me when I see other bald dude’s either but the thought of my own David going bald is enough to keep me awake at night… or is that the heartburn?

I told you I think too much about things I can not change!
