I don't want to go to work

I want to be a stay at home mommy at the moment. I know most of the time I want to go to work and have something to do but I feel like that is boring and takes a lot out of me. Guess I get to wait for that till I move up to OR. Or we win the lotto and then Hubby gets some time off as well. I probably would start viewing homes and doing as little work as possible. Now going to play some wii.

If ya didn't know



MERRY CHRISTMAS! Hope the holiday brings great cheer and smiles to ya all.

Bump is doing great. Not much to report as I gifted myself the Pregnancy Pampering kit and Belly Bars. A whole box of them so I can snack on them when I am waiting for hubby to come home and if I need some energy.

What did Santa bring you all? Please do tell.

Happy Winter!

Well its winter officially and exactly three presents are wrapped and no decorations in the house. I don't think we are going to have a Christmas like last year. But there is the new year and another Christmas with a new addition and hopefully a new place to live, new city and state. Its raining now and we are "on a break from cleaning". We are also relaxing with a big two day work week coming up. I have to get the energy to do my work rather than putting it off till the next week. Hopefully I can take some time on Wednesday to post the 12 week Bump Picture and on Jan. 2nd I go to an ultra sound that will show Bump more in detail.

I have been trying to hear its heartbeat through the baby monitor but its too faint to pick up the swoosh swoosh. And that is worrying me a little because I have not yet heard it from a Doppler or any other device. I keep pestering Hubby for the one on Amazon that yes it is expensive ($115) but I still would like a little swoosh swoosh when I feel down or just when I think that nothing has changed from the out side of my belly.

I have felt twinges of pain which I think are the baby's elbows, legs and feet. And some growing of the Home of Bump.

Getting away for a Stay-cation

Its a fancy term for a vacation that you stay with in the area of your home but go to a hotel instead of in your bed. Hubby is taking me out to SF and staying in Japantown for 2 nights 3 days. SOAK TUB! Its not going to be very hot but for my poor aching back its a blessing. Lately my lower back/hips are giving me very bad muscle spasms. I am taking something for the pain but its probably the lack of exercise and gaining weight (good thing for Bump) bad thing for the lower back. I have tried to use a back rest at work and change my positions but it doesn't seem to help :(

I had an ok day at work. My behind the back neighbor got the best of me at work today by asking me phone numbers. Its been like this for weeks though. He'd write it down and tell me that was the last time and then go and ask me the same phone number again the next day. Then he would ask me questions he knew the answers to. I told him I was cutting him off today and it just got the best of me and I told the AM and she was like they would talk with him and give him the phone sheet. Turns out that they are going to move him to a different local in the office. I think its for the best but its hard when it has been 7 months he's been behind me and I have talked out a lot of issues with him. And then he stated to me that I should have spoken to him first and stated that I was "dead serious" instead of going to the AM's. I stated that I was telling him that I was serious when I spoke to him about the issue and I sometimes have a hard time with other people's jokes. URGG its frustrating. And especially now that I am preggies.

I feel very disappointed

Its hard to put in to words but ever since not taking a honeymoon, I really wanted to go somewhere during the little vacation I had during Xmas. We are finally getting back on our feet because of hubby's 6 month job gap and I really wanted to see Disneyland in the winter. Because I always go in summer and wanted to see the additions to the rides in the holiday season. Now I'll have to wait for a few more years. We can't go to Portland either because the lateness of the planing has made every thing go up. I feel that there is no escape from my apartment right now.

Bump is doing fine. Growing and I am expecting any day to feel a kick or an elbow jab for the first time. I think I have felt some random movement but its only Bump who knows. I also placed the 12w ultra sound of Bump in the Winnie the Pooh picture frame I bought at Disneyland last year (Picture soon). Its nice to have something in that picture frame and remind me that there is some one in there.

I got the paperwork to look at for maternity leave yesterday. I can't fill it out for another 5 months but its good to plan a head for these things. I told my bosses that I am going to have a baby and they were like WOW. Well at least one of them was surprised. I had told the other two before because I needed to talk with someone. Now I need to get an official MD note to state that I am pregnant.

Baby food maker that I want

So Me and hubby went out for breakfast and brought the williams-sonoma catalogue with us to read and to and to look at the new and exciting. While Hubby was looking at the items he saw this a babycooker
for fresh baby food. I was also surprised that they offered a cook book too. Oh it also defrost stuff and it can pure meat as well.

We went to Target and got some x-mas items and a prenatal listening device though I don't know if it will pick up anything just yet but for 20 bucks its pretty desent. It comes with two ear buds and an audio out for the recording of the HB to share with friends. And this blog!

cough, cold and happy birthday's

Me and Hubby have been sick combined for 7 days now. I started to get a tickle in my throat Saturday and didn't feel the actual symptoms until Sunday then was coughing, sneezing congested stuffy couldn't take NyQuil the yummy good stuff medicine. Then Wednesday hubby got started with the flu because he started to have a migraine and it all went down hill. He was told to stay home and he did for two days. I went to work all week because I was stupid but I at least got one hour of OT. I also went straight home after work and jumped in to bed and always kept a scarf on when I was out side.

A Birthday Shout out for Hubbies' Mom "Grandma". Today is her birthday and Me, Hubby and the little one wish you all the best! We are going to call you later today.
