Confessions

These are my confessions:

1. I am tired of being pregnant
2. I would love to take afternoon naps like I used to, but then I can't sleep at night!
3. I am obsessed with having stretch marks forming on my belly
4. I'm disgusted with the stretch marks on my belly
5. I have gained waaaay too much weight and it makes me mad
6. I am NOT breastfeeding just so I can have a beer as soon as this kid pops out
7. When I went to the beach this past weekend I felt like a "beached whale"
8. I would love for this baby to be born tomorrow but I don't want him to be dumb later in life!
9. I think I'm starting to get PUPPP in my stretch marks and wow it itches
10. I am freaking out about the delivery of this baby
11. I'm praying that he has a small head....but not a small brain!
12. I have THE worst back pain I have ever had and it's lasted all 9 months
13. If one more person says "it'll all be over before you know it" I am going to scream!
14. I'm not as strong as I thought I was
15. Did I mention I am tired being pregnant?!
16. I use pregnancy as an excuse to not do ANYTHING!
17. I play Justin Timberlake really loud so the baby will move around during the day
18. When he is moving and shaking at night I get up and rock back and forth to get him to sleep!
19. I crave cran-grape juice like there is no tomorrow!
20. I can't wait until May 10th

Baby Nicolas Update

We finally decided on a middle name, it's going to be Alexander, and the first name will not have the traditional "h" in it. So Nicolas instead of Nicholas.

I had a Non-Stress test last week on Wednesday at Winnie Palmer because I felt like the fetal movements should be more frequent, and then wouldn't ya know...as soon as I was strapped down, he was moving up a storm! Nice work baby! He's already being defiant!! Everything is good though, he has been moving pretty actively.

The baby room is painted!! I love it! Gilbert is finishing the touch ups this weekend to the baseboards, but otherwise it looks awesome! We are going with the Winnie the Pooh theme, and I know it's a common theme, but I loved it when I saw it at Target, and had to have it, so the room matches perfectly!

We had the baby shower this past Saturday...I didn't get all the stuff on the list that I NEEDED, but that's okay, we are going to buy it sometime soon.

I can't wait for all this to be O-V-E-R!!!
