Happy Monday...is anyone around? Whats new with everyone?
I am okay. Feeling LOTS and LOTS of movement lately.
I cant wait till Thurs for the OFFICIAL 32 week mark although I am telling people NOW that I am 32 weeks.

Oh gosh, I hope Neanie is ok...

Ariel was moving a TON last night when I was trying to go to bed. I was having no problem feeling her, but DH said that the best time for him to feel her is when I am sleeping, because then he knows that it's not me talking or laughing or flexing my stomach muscles.

The cousin's shower was fun. I won the "how big is she" game. DUH! She's smaller than me and she's due 10 days BEFORE me! he he I knew she was smaller than me. My sister-in-law is officially an idiot and has no tact. She actually said to me, more than once "I can't believe how FAT you are!" And she even pulled my husband aside to say that and then ask him how he felt about that. She's a complete dolt. She's been pregnant twice and gained a ton of weight and I never once said anything rude like that to her. Stupid girl.

Yesterday, I went to Home Depot for paint and then Michael's for stencils and acrylic paint. I started on the base color for the nursery and once I get that done (and the second coat), I am going to stencil seaweed and fish on the walls. We also picked up some really cute fish curtains at Ikea, along with a shell wall light. And I got a little Ariel table lamp at Home Depot too. It's slowly coming along...

I for sure feel my body spreading. One of them is kicking me in strange places. I go to the doc tomorrow and get to pee in my jug today. I hit 29 weeks yesterday. I didn't do much this weekend hung around the house. Washed blankets for the nursery.

Neanie- Were thinking of you!!!

Suz- what happened with selling your house and moving, I remember that your house was on the market and you had had some bites, did you end up getting it sold.

Sorry your MIL was so rude about the fat comment (unreal what people say)... everyone keeps telling me how small I am.... I guess I should be thankful that i'm not huge and the babies are growing like they should but people should REALLY just keep their mouths shut when it comes to sizes andpregnancy as everyone carries differently... OY

Because of the way the market has turned and because of the interest rates, we decided to just sit it out and wait for a while, so the sign was taken down yesterday. I am sad, but relieved.

It was my sister-in-law who said it and she's just a complete dolt. I don't think people understand what fertility treatments do to a body!

Suz, I think your SIL has some serious jealousy issues...just my couch psychologist opinion. Don't let it get to you!

MC, rounding up to the weeks is not a big deal. People just want to get an idea how far along you are anyway. I've been saying "almost 7 months" all weekend and it's not until Friday. It's so exciting though to be 75% done (I'm 30 weeks today)!

I must be the odd girl out because I have not bought ANYTHING yet! Other than the bedding and curtains, not a single thing. One, I wanted to wait until my shower and two, I think I'm still nervous for some reason.

I have an OB appt. today and I hope they will have the results from my liver blood acid test. I will feel a whole lot better knowing there isn't something big looming out there.

Happy Monday!
Laura
