- nurse: "I'd never guess you were eight months pregnant! Maybe six." nice of her.
- another nurse: "Wow, that first baby sure did a number on your poor skin, didn't he?" Lady, I'm quite aware of the completely disgusting appearance of the skin on my stomach- not a lot I'm going to do about it at this point considering I've reached 'stretched-to-the max capacity again. not so nice of her.
- I am not dialated yet, despite strengthing contractions.
- The little guy's head, however, is about as low as it can be without popping into daylight- really, it's right there. Hmm.. that explains the exorbant amount of pressure down there. I'm sure you all wanted to know that.
- I need to be taking iron or a transfusion may be necessary. Seems an easy enough fix to prevent a potential complication. Picked up some yesterday.
2. while I'm ready to have this baby, I have come to the harsh realization that my home is not ready for someone else to come in and take over. The cleaning/project list has been made and we're making our way through it slowly. leaning over scrubbing bathtubs just may induce labor, but at least grandma can come and not have to clean my house from top to bottom before she feels comfortable staying here!
3. completely simple valence design, but that means it was done quickly, hung and the mess put away. and I don't feel like the window is naked anymore. thanks again to shellie for climbing on my counters!
4. happy belated birthday to Taisey whose entrance into this world a few decades ago gave us reason for a great lunch trip to the farm today. it was such a beautiful day.. sunny and 60 degrees and no jackets necessary! these days are the ones that make living in phoenix totally worth it.
5. there is a slight possibility that denten will be home from work tonight before 10 pm! yes, reason to celebrate as that hasn't happened in a while... and I'm dying to finish the second disc of the Godfather II... I just can't watch it without him! We learned recenly that the Godfather is on the top 10 movies of all time list and while I have had zero interest previous to now, I decided to give it a shot. I watched the first one while he was hunting last weekend and was quite surprised at how much I liked it. Judge if you will, but there is a reason it is on the top 10!

The Godfather, eh? I haven't ever watched it, although I did watch "The Goodfellas" on tv and that was a fun one to see...old school R is kinda like present day PG 13, right?
Your curtains look great!
I want to see pics of your belly though! and more of Seneca please!!!
Ideas for your nursery? Are you doing okay with your day to day tasks with a baby and belly???
Nevermind that it's rated R, huh? Ha! We stop and watch any of the movies whenever they're on TV. Stupid things done in Nick's family result in getting called "Fredo".
the valance looks cute. 60 degrees? wow, that would be nice. can't freakin wait.
I am with you on The Godfather. I hadn't seen it until this past year, either. Turns out it's a good movie.
The valence turned out really well.
Hope all of your tasks get done before the baby comes, but don't feel bad if they don't!
Forget cleaning and sleep. With three it only gets harder to try and squeeze in a short nap.
You should hear the things the nurses say in Spain. They tell you everything that is out of place or not quite perfect with your body. Like we need a reminder. I'm sure you look great!
Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
I just think nurses shouldn't comment unless they have something lovely to say like the first one. Oh my!
Your valance looks fabulous! And 60 and sun is sounding mighty good.
I adore your valance. I wish I had your skills. I'm sure my used-to-be- stretched-out belly skin is MUCH worse than yours.
Yea on the valance and I wish I could scrub your tubs for you, that is nearly impossible at this point.
And, don't feel too bad, my dear sister, who I love, still is in amazement at the state of my skin/belly area. It doesn't help that her stomach was back to flat as a board six months after Ivory. I'm wondering if #2 will help her understand my "issues" better.
Oh well, she makes me laugh!
