25 Days to go....
Yeah..I'm almost there! Thankfully!! The picture above is of me and Denice Barker - Lisa's mom at my baby shower. Denice was literally like a 2nd mother to me while I was growing up. Lisa and I spent A LOT of time together. Denice is an awesome person and I love talking with her. This is a quilt that she made for Zippy - if you click on the picture you can see the quilt a bit better. I love it and I am sure Zippy will too!
So, 25 days left - I am SO ready. Last week was a bit rough - many days of morning sickness. I went to the Doctor last Friday and while I didn't see my regular OB - I saw another Doctor who I have seen a few times and he said that some women just get morning sickness in the last few weeks of pregnancy - lucky us! He said to take it easy - listen to my body,relax, and STAY OUT OF THE HEAT. Now - you all know me and relaxing is not always that easy..well it is after the vacuuming is done, laundry is folded, and my "last" organizational project is complete. I can't help myself. He did tell me that if I ended up in the hospital for dehydration and had to leave the hospital this close to the due date without a baby - I would be really upset. So, I am going to take his advice and take it easy - pamper myself and not stress about the small stuff these last few weeks.
When I got home from work today - I had a package waiting for me from Babies R Us, it was my diaper genie from my Aunt Chris who could not make it to the shower - I was SO excited! Can you imagine getting that excited about a diaper genie? Between that and my changing pad and covers you would think that I had just won an all expenses paid trip to Hawaii! I guess becoming a mom really does change you!
Thanks to Colin and Sharon for inviting us to their Pig Roast party over the weekend. We had a great time - it was nice to get out and socialize with our friends!! We'll look forward to next year!

Hope you are doing better, morning sickness. YUCK!
