More baby prep

I’ve been sitting here trying to decide what to write about. First off, I’m 25 weeks now! Can you believe it? I can’t. I had started to have mild panic attacks because we’d done nothing towards getting the back room cleared out and ohmygoshwhatifbabycomesearly?!? (That was my typed imitation of one of my little mini [...]

6(!) soon to be 4

I was horrified to realize that the exterminator and the heating air guy are both coming over this afternoon. The house is a mess with dirty dishes all over the kitchen, the laundry room filled to bursting with dirty clothes and towels, the floors unswept and unmopped. Since we have 6(!) cats, the house being [...]

Bills, bills and more bills…

Ugh. I’ve been sitting here since I got home an hour and a half ago going through bills and paying them. We’ll have no late fees this month, by golly. So far so good although the credit cards aren’t getting any money this month (to hell with them all) and after talking with Chris we’ve [...]

Baby news and half a dozen cats

I’ve started feeling Sebastian squiggle around. It is so weird and it isn’t all the time, so sometimes I won’t feel him for a day or two and then blip, there he is. My belly makes me think of a giant gold fish bowl. Speaking of bellies: My poor face is just getting rounder and [...]

Wasps go FWOOP!

My dirty little secret

The back bedroom of doom is going to get tackled this weekend. Husband Chris has spoken, haha. Because if it was left up to me, it probably wouldn’t get done until, well, the baby was here and having to sleep in a drawer in our bedroom or something. People at work hear me talk about [...]

Pregnant at 14 weeks

My first belly pics. Chris snapped them with my camera phone while I was checking my plants on the deck.

Meal plans are good

Mmm the house smells so good right now. Chris got busy and mopped the whole place plus I baked chocolate chip cookies and I have a pot roast in the crock pot for dinner. I had to work a half day yesterday and during the time I planned my meals for the week. Chris does [...]

Surprise!

Yep, we’re expecting a little one! Should be in November. I’m already losing my mind over all the things we need to do between now and then like finish the last bits of wiring, clean out the back bedroom, paint, organize, eek! My job doesn’t offer maternity leave though. Well, let me clarify, they’ll let [...]
