Dreams…

These last few weeks I’ve been having the weirdest dreams EVER! To make matters worse they are so vivid and seem so real and when I wake up I remember every little detail. Sometimes it’s funny, other times it’s very disturbing.

One funny dream consisted of a friend I had in elementary school now more like an acquaintance. You know those friends that at the time was your bff but now you only read their updates on facebook and if you passed them in the grocery store you would either dodge an aisle or casually say hi and keep walking? Yeah that girl and I were once again besties (I still hate that word, even though I use it) in search of tampons, we were searching every where in my house for them behind/under/around couches, in kitchen cabinets, washer, dryer, back yard, garage. Seriously what the crap? When I woke up in the middle of the night to make my routinely 3rd potty break I had to look under the sink in my bathroom just to make sure I had tampons just in case someone needed one, maybe.

One disturbing dream was I caught David cheating on me, well kind of he was with a bunch of half naked women (all missing some body part- eye, leg, arm, nose, hand etc) in a picture with a few of his other friends. It was his friends wife that knocked on my door and asked if I realized where my husband was and how I could be so accepting to him leaving the state for a night out with the guys, when I told her he was just working security at a mexi club (which he occasionally does) with her husband and that’s when she showed me the picture… ugh! I woke up mad at David, really mad he asked me if I would start his truck the following morning and I said no then thought how dare he ask after last night when I instantly remembered that was a freaking dream… nightmare really.

One more I was trying to breast feed our baby, she wasn’t cooperating and it was the middle of the night when all the sudden I heard a knock on the door. It didn’t scare me I just walked topless to the front door carrying my child that was wearing snow boots when I realized it was my little brother I grabbed the rug off the floor and wrapped it around me, opened the door to see my brother standing there with a huge smile when I asked why he was so happy he showed me his new tattoo (he is only 16, and was in my dream too) I asked him why the crap he got one and he said because it meant a lot to him and his dream job. The tat was a picture of the Eddy’s logo where my dad used to work ha, proudly inked on his upper arm, seriously?

Not to mention all the ex boyfriends I dream about. Some I only went on 1 date with and others I literally forgot about. That’s when I wake up feeling like I’m cheating on my husband and feel guilty that I’m having these messed up dreams I can’t control.

I’m going to go ahead and blame yet another odd pregnancy moment on crazy prego hormones!

Innappopriate …

There is a reason I entitled this the way I did (so stop reading now if you are easily offended)… I really want a ‘pregnant’ t-shirt. There are so many ways to say it prego, expecting,

bump

baby bump…

bun

bun in the oven…

But my favorite is…

knocked

that’s right, I want a shirt that says “knocked up”… even before I got pregnant I knew when that time in my life came I wanted one and if it weren’t for my mom I would probably have one already. She told me that it was inappropriate and something to the idea of it making her sick. Look mom the next one is worse.

hump

now that’s bad! And maybe we could get David in on the new t-shirt scam.

Yeah, I Knocked Her Up Shirt

I know it’s horrible, but in a gross way I find much humor out of it. I think I’ve said enough for one day.

p.s. sorry if I offended you, you can’t say I didn’t warn ya Smile

No shave November…

Why didn’t I know about this sooner? I saw a few comments on Facebook about this glorious idea and wondered why I had never heard such thing. Are you familiar with it? Naturally, I googled it…to (somehow) support prostate cancer, men are going the month of November without shaving ANY part of their body hair. Apparently women felt left out (hey we support prostate issues too) so we decided join in and now it’s all in the fun of the sport. Only a week into it and people are already saying they don’t know how much longer they can stand it or if they can do it at all. I, for one could easily win this contest because it’s been months… or so since these legs have seen a razor. Anyone up for the challenge?

There is a few things I dread doing in life ex: getting the oil in my car changed, cutting my nails, and shaving my legs happens to be one of them as well- plus hubs always complains after I shave because my legs feel like a “cactus.” Easy does it, I don’t shave for a while… long while and he never says a word bonus I have soft, blond leg hair ha!

I recently sent a picture that looks like the one above to my mom (long story short I was wearing capri’s and sitting in my car with my leg up when I noticed my legs were ridiculous) via text with the text “are you proud?” I thought she would laugh and have a funny comment back to me by all means my mother knows me when I got the reply “ew honey, no! I think it’s time to trim those down.”

Moral of the story: support prostate cancer and hide your razor until December 1st. And I’ll have an excuse to go another month… too bad it’s not summer when I don’t wear pants every day Smile

It’s a…

GIRL!! and I am stoked.

I may or may not have thought secretly we were going to have a little boy, and I may or may not have secretly deep down wanted a little girl (all those nieces of ours and the youngest one will probably not quite be a year old when ours is born, can you say hand me downs? yes please). Either way, it’s clearly a girl not by the cute little picture you see here. She was not wanting to participate in her first photo op, I like to think she’s already like her dad (he hates pictures). Stubborn like him too, the more the ultrasound tech pushed on my stomach the more she rolled the other way. So here is the best profile pic we could get…

She’s beautiful, trust me I know. And she’s perfect, trust me I know. And I love this little thing to pieces already, and unless you’re a mom you don’t understand- because clearly I wouldn’t have just last year. She likes to be down low and turned into my back that was her position of choice, makes since why my back is a jacked up hurting mess… ain’t no thang Smile When I made the comment I was glad she wasn’t sucking on her thumb she almost instantly put her hands up to her mouth, don’t do it child you are not too young for momma to beat you. Do you know I have two 7 year old nieces that still suck their thumb? Makes me angry, annoyed really if they were closer I’d cut those thumbs off… it’s true. (sigh, I wish they were closer) It was so cute when they were in my sis’s belly, and cute as babies too I thought, now whenever I see a kid sucking their thumb I cringe (ok, not really). Anyway… I’m glad we don’t have to paint our adorable pink room, but I would have been happy to if she were a boy just sayin. I am just happy, happy that we are expecting a child, happy that she is looking healthy, happy that I haven’t felt like death, happy that David has put up with my mood swings and cranky self, happy that I have a job where the girls are just as excited for this as I am, and so happy both of our families are close enough to get in on this excitement. This was without a doubt one of the happiest days of our lives!

it’s feeling a lot like Christmas

not because the high was 40 today either.

David spoiled me and bought me:

arm

a new under armour hoodie

&

vac

a new vacuum, that claims to work better than a Dyson for 1/3 of the price, time will tell and I’ll be the judge. Anything has to be better than the one we’ve been using the last few months. We really want a Dyson but it just isn’t in the budget this year… I’m just excited for a new vacuum of any kind.

I also received 3 huge boxes of maternity clothes courtesy of Ebay today, yay! A few doesn’t quite fit very well but for the amount I paid I think was worth it. Bonus, my MIL can hem thank heavens because apparently I am shorter than I thought (?)

Tomorrow is the big day we find out what this little peanut is… I’m stoked! I feel like I’m 8 again and it’s Christmas Eve, lets just hope we can get some sleep tonight.

My hero of the day is…

my mother in law!

She hemmed these amazing maternity pants for me and they fit perfectly! I got them for a measly $10 at Ross (I told you I hate spending $, right?) They were too long but I knew just the person that could fix it, and she didn’t disappoint. In only a few short days they are like brand new! I don’t sew… I wish I did… scratch that I don’t even have the desire to learn so I’m so thankful for my MIL!

a

(yes, my dog thinks I’m nuts… hubby says he’s right. First day wearing maternity clothes and I’m more comfortable already! Full panel is were it’s at!)

p.s. this is not a suck up post. My mother in law already loves me, how could she not I’m married to her favorite child Smile 

Thank you Patty from the bottom of my freaking heart, you made my day… now can you make my bra fit?
