Still cooking the bun

Yep I am still pregnant.  I had a Dr Appt yesterday...had to to the whole Group B Strep thingy.  For those of you who have done it you know what it involves, and for those who don't I am not going to share at this time...its much better to find out once you are pregnant.  Anyway...Isabel is still head down, but hasn't dropped which means I still can walk, but I can only eat like a bird b/c she is literally up in my stomach.  My C-section date has not changed so unless something changes she coming 2 weeks from tomorrow.  The Dr said she figures she is close to 8lbs right now, and she still has 2 weeks left...so I again am looking forward to giving birth to a toddler (Andrew was over 10lbs)...good thing I decided to do a repeat c-section.    She also gave me some Ambien so I can sleep (So Mike you can SNORE AWAY!)  and I did sleep like a baby last night.  I would like to go to sleep right now, but Mike is insisting we wait up to see what the powerball numbers are since he is sure we have picked (or at least the quick-pick machine has given us) the right number so we will be instantly rich.  Oh well....guess I am off to take a relaxing bath...until next time!

The truth about poo

Ok, I am wide awake and it's 12:32 am...why am I awake?  Because my husband snores.  Is this a new thing?  Well yes and no...for the first year we were married I swear he didn't snore...then all of a sudden he started...so finally I talked him into trying those breathe right strips around mid Nov...and he stopped...but now its back..even when he wears them he still snores.  So now I am awake...Yay for me.  Of course if you were to ask him he would deny snoring...he has denied it all along....So the ritual goes if he falls asleep first (which 99 times out of 100 he does b/c I swear he's asleep BEFORE his head hits the pillow) THen I have about a 20 minute window that IF I can fall asleep then we are all clear b/c I am a pretty heavy sleeper and I don't wake up b/c of the snoring....but there are times (which are becoming more and more frequent in my late stage of pregnancy) that I am not asleep by this 20 minute time and he starts snoring....so I first try to poke him and make him shift around to stop the snoring....if this does not work (which it rarely does, so I am thinking of skipping this line of defense from now on) I then wake him up....most of the time he just snorts and rolls into a non snoring position, but there are times (like tonight) that he'll say "I'M NOT SNORING...I'M NOT EVEN ASLEEP YET!  Which to me is very funny (unless it is 12:32 am and I am extremely tired myself) b/c the next day he won't remember a thing from the night before.  Wow I didn't think I could write so much about snoring....anyway...on to the  poo...

I have come to notice that there are a few people out there in the world who think that their poo does not stink.  What they need to realize is that while they have become immune to their poo stank we other citizens have not.  Therefore maybe its time for you to stop and examine your poo ...check your shoes...sometimes you are so full of poo it is running down your leg and into your shoes and you don't even know it.  Oh yeah...if you are wondering who in the world I am talking about then it is probably YOU :)

Just about time

That's right...its just about time for this baby to pop out!  Up until the last week I have felt great, so it only make sense that the last 3 weeks should be filled with misery...right?   I think if it wasn't so hot it wouldn't be so bad, but who knows. 

Mike has duty tonight....so I am stuck here alone...if I wasn't so tired I'd take advantage of the time and finish the laundry, but our neighbors are changing their landscaping and were getting rid of their crepe myrtles so I piped up and said if you are going to just get rid of them we'd love to have them (It'll save us from having to buy some later) so today of all days...lol...they dug them up and brought them over....of course since mike is gone I get to plant them...and now I am exhausted.  I don't think pregnant women are made to do lawn work. 

I'll update more later...I have to get Andrew up from nap...

Enter today....win tomorrow

Ok its a dumb subject, but I couldn't think of anything creative so there is a stupid add above my blog screen that is from the Publishers Clearing House and so I decided to go with it.

For those of you dying for an update....I have 31 days till the c-section...while I'd like for her to get outta there, we really need her to hold off until my parents get out here to stay with Andrew. 

Mike and I planted a garden this year....we have been picking tomatoes like crazy, and have learned to can them and now have 30 cans so far...YAY...and I am now going to hide them somewhere safe so my sister can never find them

Speaking of my sister...she's coming out to stay till Sept 6th to help out around the house after the baby gets here....she'd better be getting lots of rest and sleep now b/c ANdrew is a handful and she will be dog tired before she leaves. 

I finished dinner for tonight at 9am..that's right I actually planned ahead...and thank God for crock pots...no one should be in this world without one!

For father's day I got Mike a box of "retro candy" since he is sooo much older than I am ....in it was a set of wax lips....well one thing led to another and see what happens...
