Update

Gage's birthday party was last weekend. It was a lot of fun and he loved his cake. It was perfect because it was very stress free and they did everything for me. I am so happy I chose that this year.

We are getting Gage's pictures done today at 1. I hope he cooperates. :)

I am 32 weeks today. About 8 weeks left. The shower my sister is throwing me is next Saturday. :) Mostly will be just family because it's a birthday weekend next weekend. We have a birthday party down the street with Gage's friend at daycare. Then my friend's birthday and we're going to dinner for that. A night out!!

Here are some pictures below of Gage's birthday party.

29 weeks 2 days....less than 11 weeks until my EDD

I guess I should update. Haven't done that in a while. A few things have changed. One being my midwife moved practices and I decided to not follow her until after the baby is here. It was a mess, but I'll just stay since I'm already in my 3rd trimester. I have my appt this week too. I will meet the OB/GYN. Then set up my next appt with the new midwife, if she's accepting patients by then. While I'm in the area I will get my pre-registration for the hospital as well. :)

The second being my boss was fired. Ha. It was a matter of WHEN not IF. I like our interm boss we have. She is nice and knows a lot about our system. They said they'll start recruiting new people this week.

Pregnancy wise, I'm a big emotional mess. I'm antsy to get stuff done that I want done. I go on a hunt for things I can't find until I find them. It festers in my head until I find it. I freaked because I couldn't find my sling. I finally remembered it might be in a basket in the garage. I was happy that it was!!

I wanted the shelving unit to be put in the back room before my step mom came. (She gave it to us and it's been sitting in the garage since June.) It helped clean up and store more things in the back room.

I cried last night from built up stuff, but it was a nice release. I sleep like crap, still.

I picked up my FMLA/STD papers today. I am going to get 100% pay while I'm leave which will be SO flipping nice. We are going to maybe visit my dad in Tulsa during my leave.

I'm going to do my belly cast this weekend. :)

We got a new crib too. I got my voucher in the mail. It was quite an ordeal, but I ended up getting a $300 crib for nothing. I only had $275 to spend so not paying the extra was nice, though I had to drive 45 mins to get it. It's also not the color I wanted. I love Cherry Wood but it doesn't match the room, but at that point I didn't care. One thing I like is it's shorter than the other crib, so I can put the baby in with out leaning over too much as I'm only 5'2. Gage slept in it last night and he didn't wake up at all. Nice transition, thankfully!

new crib

His birthday is in less than 2 weeks!! My baby is almost 2!!! AH! He has me sing him "happa birtday" all the time. He loves it.

He also started asking for 'big (long i) hug' all the time too. It's so cute too. He is talking a lot more and saying pretty much everything he can. I still don't always understand but I just kind of go with it. hehe.

Well I better get to work.
