3 Weeks Left And It Feels Like An Eternity!

9 months is an extremely long time to be pregnant and the final 3 weeks is just pure torture! Technically at this point any day could be the day...and 15 minutes ago wouldn't have been soon enough! We all know that I am NOT one of those happy go lucky annoying pregnant ladies that just LOVES to be pregnant! Now don't get me wrong, I have been so blessed to be able to get pregnant and to have two healthy pregnancies, but the reality is that pregnancy is just not fun for me...at all! Here is a list of reasons why:

1. I get FAT...REALLY FAT!

2. Morning sickness is just plain awful!

3. The smell of my husband and everything else around me makes me wish I only had 4 senses.

4. The veins in my legs look like I gave Greyson purple and green markers and let him go to town...and those support hose are extremely sexy, especially in the middle of the summer with shorts and flip flops.

5. My chest and butt are the same size as my stomach...GROSS!

6. Hot water on my face annoys the heck out of me. I have to adjust the shower temp if I plan on getting my face wet.

7. I go from angry hormonal woman to an emotional wreck in less time than a Bugatti Veyron goes from 0-60mph (That's less than 2.6 seconds for those of you wondering.)

8. I have nothing to wear because NOTHING looks cute on me!

9. Between the "mask of pregnancy" and the lovely pimples, my skin is disgusting.

10. My hair is greasy and frizzy.

11. I can't breathe, sleep, or bend over past 28 weeks.

12. My feet...just chop them off.

13. Can you say HEARTBURN?!!

14. I have actually resorted to peeing in a cup when I am out and about because I refuse to stop every 15 minutes and get Greyson out of his carseat to do the whole bathroom thing.

I could easily go on and on, but this is more than enough to remind me (and Chad) that 2 kids is just the perfect number for us!

Bor or Girl?!?!

I am 18 weeks pregnant and am anxiously waiting to find out the sex of my second baby! The results are sealed in an envelope which Chad and I will have our waiter open at dinner this evening. Morton's is our favorite restaurant and we always celebrate special occasions there. We did the same thing when we found out Greyson was going to be a boy. It kind of adds a little extra excitement to finding out and also makes it a little more memorable. After dinner we will go out and purchase an outfit for the baby, but not before we have dessert at Coldstone!

My order:
Extra Snickers and Butterfinger mixed into sweet cream ice cream placed inside a waffle cone (the cup kind)... and I wonder why the pounds keep adding on.

Pregnant with Baby #2!!!

Little did I know that what I thought was PMS was actually pregnancy symptoms. Surprise, I'm pregnant! (And I mean SURPRISE!) My pregnancy with Greyson was anything but pleasant and all I have been able to think about for 2 years is, "I can't believe I have to do this again!" Well, the time is here and I currently have 16 weeks under my belt...which means 24 long weeks to go. I can't help but wonder if my pregnancy is harder on me or harder on Chad??? I am happy to say that I am no longer sick and finally have a little energy back. On the flip side, I am extremely irritable, getting fatter by the hour, and looking anything but sexy in my support hose. Despite the blah part, Chad and I can't get over the fact that Greyson is going to be a big brother...crazy! The last week or so when I have gone in to get him out of his crib in the morning, the first thing he says to me is, "Baby in mommy's tummy...I want to see it." Try explaining that whole concept to a 19-month-old!!!
