I had my thirty one week checkup today and things are looking good. I took my mom with me because she wanted to hear the babies heart beat. She was so amazed!! We also went shopping for the rest of the "necessities" that I thought I needed! Mom was overwhelmed with the way things have changed since she had all of us kids! The babe's heartbeat was 154 and I was measuring right at thirty one weeks so that's all looking good. I was relieved to know that even though I am on my two week check ups, they don't start checking me until thirty six weeks. Well, unless I start to have contractions, but like I'm going to know what in the hell they feel like & as much as I'm dreading being "checked" like hell that I'm going to tell them early that I'm having any! Anyways, I asked today how long past my due date they would let me go without inducing me and the doctor told me no longer than a week and actually if the baby is ready and so am I they will let me go a week early. Mom said my face lit up like "oh thank heaven." I must say that was music to my ears!!! The anticipation has definately set in. I can't wait to meet our new little one. I am so sick of everyone calling the baby "junior" so I have started calling it "princess." I think junior sounds very boyish and I guess princess sounds a little girly, but hey if I call it princess and Jeff calls it junior...what the heck! I also must say...this little baby, whether it be a junior or princess, was definately spoiled for christmas. The little turd isn't even here yet and we don't even know what in the hell it is, well a baby of course, but he/she received so many gifts...pathetic!!! I think Jeff and I need to talk to grandmas and aunties and inform them that this needs to come to a hault! A) We don't have room for all these extras and B) we don't want a spoiled brat on our hands!!! Just kidding...we appreciated everything from everyone and we know they are all as excited as we are for this little arrival. It's great to say only 9 more weeks to go...versus 9 more months! Oh what a relief!
The baby room is all complete, but our camera decided to conveniently take a poop on us! I decided to get it sent in and get it fixed before we really need it for all those priceless moments with the baby. When it returns, hopefully fixed, I will get some pictures up of the baby room.
Until next time, I hope everyone had a great christmas with family and friends and celebrates ringing in the new year safely. Oh and by the way...this will be the first new years in a few that I will actually be able to ring in the new years sober and Jeff won't have to drag my butt in the house and chuck me in bed....wait I will probably be sleeping by nine! (Oh the joys of being pregnant!)
Happy New Year!!!!
