Very Odd...

So, I finally broke down and went to Babies R Us for the first time recently since I actually got pregnant. I have been there many times before, but never for myself. It was tiring, fun and odd all at the same time. I registered for a pack of ten bibs (very practical, I know). Next to the practical bibs, are the ones with all the cute little blurbs on them. The one that caught my eye was the one that said "100% boy". I thought that was odd. Why? Because, unless your child is a hermaphrodite, it will be 100% boy or 100% girl. Furthermore, if you have a hermaphroditic child, I seriously doubt you will brand him/her. The other item I discovered and found to be absolutely unnecessary was this little sock thing that you apparently put over a little boy's penis so he doesn't pee on you. It had a dog or something like that on it as a decoration. Even my friend, who has a little boy, thought it to be completely dumb. There are several more items like these two throughout the store. Too many to even mention.

Urg...

Now that I am officially in my third trimester, I am starting to do two things:
1. Get really excited about everything
2. Get really annoyed at everything else

Although I feel great, I have insomnia and acid reflux. At least, I think it is acid reflux. Whatever it is, it sucks! I have a lot of trouble sleeping during the night which makes it easy to sleep during the day which makes a really bad habit to get into. Pilsner, one of our dogs, gets into the neighbors yard if I take my eyes off of him for 2 seconds. And not only does he go into the neighbor's yard, he goes one yard further. It is quite difficult to maneuver around the woods to get him back.

I commented on Facebook a few days ago about the whole bathroom situation I continue to run into. I think I'm almost there and then I have to walk another 50 ft in discomfort because apparently men have smaller bladders than women. As my lovely husband likes to tell me, "Angry".

I made comments to a women at Wal-Mart the other day because she obviously had more than 20 items in her cart and was in the express line. On top of that, she had government assistance and no ID so the cashier had to go through this whole ordeal to get her rung up. I'm not going to get into the whole government assistance argument with someone but I just don't see how that makes the express line go any faster. It is just contradictory.

Oh yeah, and I have a lot of trouble breathing. Its like there is something squeezing my diaphragm. Oh wait, there is!

Baby Belly...

Sorry for the delay. I've been busy since we got back from vacation. I officially turned 28 weeks while on vacation so I thought I would delight everyone with a belly pic in my bikini. I took a tankini with me to wear but the weather was so hot and humid, I couldn't bare to have on anymore clothes than necessary. Just about every other day I was asked if I was having 2 babies. I guess I'm even huge in other countries.

Peter and I were able to relax. We spent time at the beach and time at the pool. On the last day of the trip, we rented a car and drove into town. We had such a great time. The driving is absolutely the craziest of anywhere I've been. There were families of 4-5 (mom, dad, 2-3 kids) on a bike similar to a dirt bike. They obviously do not have car seat or any sort of safety laws in that country.

All my hockey glory..

Here I am with all my Thrasher shirt/belly glory at 26 weeks and 4 days.

Peter and I went to a pre-season meet and greet at Phillips Arena for the Thrashers last night. Below is a picture of me with Zach Bogosian (#4). He is the absolute cutest hockey player. He is only 19 (which is why he is still cute, nothing is broken, yet). He, along with all the other Thrashers, signed memorabilia for a few hours. While standing in line waiting for them to sign our things, I noticed a girl standing in front me. I looked at Peter and said, "I can't believe flannel is back in style!" I couldn't believe the words were coming out of my mouth as I was saying them. Does that make me old? That a style has gone out of fashion and back in. I always knew this day would come, but I hoped to at least have a kid by that time. ( I know I have one on the way, but...)
