April 7, 23 more days to go

Today was another April day. Though I am reminded at the fact that the end of the week and weekend is a bad time for me and my extended family. Then again at the end of the month.

I would like to get pregnancy photos soon. Maybe in the first part of May look for a Studio that can do Bump pictures. They say to do it at the biggest you'd get and I pretty much have been waiting for next month to come so I can look at them when I have a baby on the out side and say wow it was that big! I think I am going to take a picture of me and a tape measure around the belly to note the size of the biggest I will get as well.

I think Bumpy is settling in the Breach position but I can't be too sure. I feel the biggest part of its movements up top and smaller movements near my crotch. But I could be wrong.

I still would like to see if it responds to light. I posted on the Bump Boards about my question and some woman stated that she didn't want to blind her baby. I thought that was stupid because its more of a dull glow when its in the womb then it comes out in the florescent lights that are in the hospital. I would think that would blind a baby more than a warm glow of red.

I got one of the items yesterday on the Feb 18th post that I wanted. The "Our Little Hunny" Memory Book at the Hallmark Store in the mall near my home. I saw the scrapbook and I really want it but hubby wanted me to save my monies for this month. I also got 8 pairs of white socks for baby's hands and feet from Old Navy. I didn't want to get other colors due to the "lost sock" syndrome due to kitties and we may go to a laundry mat to do some blankets and I would take some baby clothes with me.

I stayed home today from work because of head stuff. I think I have sinus thing due to the boxes at home and the dust from the old home. I am going to do some laundry because I found some clothes that were hiding in bags and boxes from the movers. We are almost to the wall of the living room! I can't wait till we get to the dining room and set up the desktop and I can scan pictures!

Today went ok, not too great when Hubby has a migraine. After we went to the Public Storage and got gas for the rental. returned it and went to the mall and ate lunch then we went to see Monster's and Aliens in 3D. It was a fun movie and nice and cool. Bumpy through out the movie was squirming around and wanting some down time. Now I am waiting for dinner and then I am going to sleep.

Thursday I rented a Rav4 to "test" drive this weekend because I wanted some real world experiance with the car that I was thinking about buying. Friday was Hubby's day and today was mine. And tomorrow I return the car at noon.

For me at least it's been a good experiance there were a few bumps though. The day started off good, I drove to SF, picked up my mail, and drove to Yellow Submarine and picked up sandwiches (I paralled parked very good with this car). And went to the beach and had an inprompt to picknick. There I liked that we could sit in the back and eat and still had enought head room for hubby's Mellon head. Then we decided to go to Cost-co and on the way there stupid drivers stopped for some reason for 30 seconds and I grabbed hubby's hand very hard. He didn't like that! After Cost-co we were driving home I crushed his forearm, because I saw a yellow light and I thought I wasn't going to make it. Now hubby's driving to lucky's.

April 3, 27 more days to go

For the most part my day went good. I did go to physical therapy for my shoulder again. The doctor states I need to relax my shoulders more. Maybe have hubby force them down for a few minutes as a way to relax them past the point that I can naturally. During physical therapy Bumpy was like "cool your laying down so I can MOVE!" so it was kicking and punching me while I was getting worked on.

At work I have been struggling to keep my head a float. Hubby talked me down a bit right now though. Enjoying the weekend. I saw my Boss' little baby as well. She was cute! I was told she weights now what I weight at birth. I actually got out of work early and got home to start laundry.

Did I mention 27 more days to go?

April 2, 28 more days to go

In the crazy world that is my work this example is what I mean about April is NOT a good month for me. I get to work feeling very good for once. I think its because I threw up something bad (food/Meds) yesterday night (not fooling) and I actually got to bed before 10pm which is always good!

So I get to work with little time to spare, even living 5 minutes away I still can't catch a break with time. I do my regular routine and getting my self woken up as the day progresses. I read that I am to do a "special project" in which I need to complete by noon. I do my work because I want to verbally confirm what I was told in order for me to complete the project. Turns out its a project that I don't have the tools for. Neither does the person that is above me that I need to work with. As in Worst Case Scenario. Ended up, I hand wrote on each document what was needed (40+ docs) which took up A LOT of time, still trying to meet min.'s set by my management. by the middle of my day (11 am) knee deep in paper work and still having other tasks to do, I take a small lunch enough time to breath and eat (Bumpy kicked me to remind me its there) and got back to my project. by 2pm I was complete with every one on the right page and got three more Benefit verifications done (all a blur to me now) did my small tasks and complained to a co-worker about the day it was 5pm. Two and a half hours after go home time, an hour and a half after my Make-up time was done to get everything that I needed to do completed.

Tomorrow should be fun because I go to work, at 9:30 exit and hopefully return by 11:30 am to have a phone shift and complete the minimum requirements set by the management. (eye twitch) You may say, AP, its going to be Saturday after Friday and you will not have to go to work that day nor the day after till Monday and that starts a whole new week!

I say to that - its April, every day is going to be something difficult till May 3rd. (ONE MONTH MARK TILL BUMP DUE DATE!) Then I will be stress free (or close to it) for the last month.

LOVE THE BUMPY! It was calming me down at each step of the way. I also was told that I am "low" and I might have a Boy at work today. But not going to know till B-Day.

April 1, 29 days more to go

Not a month has started and hopefully it will go with out putting me in a dunce cap and (knocks on wood) nothing happens to LBJ, Bumpy. I escaped not having an April fools joke played on me! I didn't want to fool you all as just this blog has some good mojo and scary stuff on it all ready!

Bumpy has been moving more and more during the day so I hope it will be a sleep most if the night when it's on the out side *crosses fingers*. I will be happy when it's out so I can look at Bumpy and admire the baby that I have waited for and put up with so much for in the time baking this child.
