patiently waiting.....

I have never had much patience throughout my life, so you can about imagine how I am doing counting down the days and waiting PATIENTLY for the baby to arrive. I try to keep myself busy either by cleaning or watching tv or reading. But waiting has to be the hardest part of pregnancy, especially now that we are down to the last few weeks.

Movie Review

So my aunt Penny came down to stay yesterday with us and we decided to take in a show in the afternoon. She chose to go to the movie Nights in Rodanthe. I hadn't heard much about the movie but I did know that Richard Gere was in it. I figured why not....for a pregnant lady who cries too much to begin with this was not a good movie to go to. The whole story line was very good and the acting was good and the scenery was beautiful. I just wasn't impressed with how it ended. Did I mention I cried throughout the whole movie! So if you have seen it already let me know your thoughts...if you haven't...Unless you need a good cry and are in that kind of mood...I don't recommend it.

Blogger fun!

Swollen Feet!

When I signed up for the pregnancy thing no one ever told me about the swollen feet! They are huge and it doesn't matter what I do they just don't seem to get back to their normal size? I drink water all day long and of course we all know what happens when you drink water....

So my question is for all of those ladies who have been through this before....Will my feet ever look normal again? Or as close to normal as a foot is supposed to look?

bad day?

I was having a bad day on Tuesday until Dustin showed me this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg

It made me feel so much better and i laughed until I had tears.

What's in a name?

We finally set up the crib yesterday for the baby! I can't believe that in like 6 weeks he will be here! He meaning we have no official name picked out yet!

I never realized how hard it would be to pick out a name! Everytime I think of a name and decide it's a good one we change our minds. People have told me that you really won't know until he comes and then it will just come to you! I'm praying that's the case. We do have a few names to choose from but we'll just have to wait and see.

Another thing that I was not aware of is that I never thought in a million years I would be so anxcious to get this baby here! These last few weeks have seemed to take forever! Just hurry up and get here already!

Proud!

It was this day 7 years ago. It started out as a normal day, I was getting ready for school and I heard the news. The twin towers had been hit. My heart has never ached so much for so many people I did not even know. It is this day every year for the rest of my life that I will remember what happened. God Bless everyone who lost their lives or a loved one that day 7 years ago. You will always be remember and you will all be missed. Thank you to all of those who are or who have fought for our country. It is because of you we are FREE. And it is because of you I am proud to be an American!
