OK OK here is an update... We are at 37 weeks and counting, we went to the doctor on Monday and I am at 2cm dilated now and the babies head is down and in position. What does this mean? Nothing really except things are progressing well and oh yeah my cervix is soft which is good for pushing baby out. I think she will be early or that could be because walking and moving in general is becoming hell and I am over it. I know that I am over it due to the fact I don't even care anymore when people touch my stomach, I am to tired to give a shit or resist. Any woman who says this is the best time of their lives must not get out much or have a really boring life. 

We purchased a waterproof sheet for the bed so if and when my water breaks it will not ruin our newish mattress. It also will come in handy when one of the dogs (most likely Kevin) pukes on us in the middle of the night. This has already happened, a few months ago I woke up with Kevin barf on me it was great and then Chip rolled over in it.

The baby room now has two closets, we got the freezer out of the house and had someone drywall the hole so now we just need to paint over the obvious patch. The closet is a mini closet b/c we kept the ghetto pantry which eats up some space but she is tiny and so are her clothes for the time being so she can deal...

In other news we got a stroller which i like and the dogs don't like. They keep peeing on it but that may have to do with Chip or I chasing them around the house with it. I would probably try to pee on it too. Oola likes it b/c I have caught her sleeping in it 3 times now. I think that is it for now as our computer is possessed and won't let me post any photos.

Ok the nursery is also done. Thanks to Michael G. for painting Pom Pom Purin on the wall for us. It is adorable including the butt.


The wall of baby animals may or may not freak out the future baby, Erin mentioned that she was freaked out about some mushroom curtains that were in her room as a child and they had to be taken down so we may be in trouble with the creepy bears and lambs.
Now I will be conducting a poll for babies first Halloween costume. I will show you the choices below and then you can vote in the comments. Don't worry I am not going to take a 1 month old Trick or Treating b/c that is dumb but I do love Halloween so I will make her get dressed up for my enjoyment and laughter.
Choice 1
Princess Leia

Choice 2

Chewbacca

Chip wants nothing to do with this, he gave me the look of shame when I mentioned it, I think he is embarrassed.
So what has happened since I last blogged... Well we started attending Prepared Childbirth classes where we learn breathing techniques and all about birth, me no likey. At the end of our first class we all (us and 3 other couples) had to get on the floor to meditate. I don't meditate and neither does Chip so when we are lying on the floor facing each other as the instructor tells us to visualize a mountain or some crap we start laughing. I don't mean someone burped and its funny kind of chuckle, but full on I can't look at the other person crying kind of laughing, it was embarrassing b/c everyone else was into it. Lame.


We also had a baby shower where people came from near and far (CT.) to celebrate Blair,Baby and Blair's 50 chins. Seriously all the photos that were taken I look like a huge blob so they will not be posted... They can't be on the Internet. I made Chip take pictures afterwards that do not feature my chins. Anyway the shower was fun but I was exhausted from preparing for it so I was kind of out of it. My bad. We played games where you smelled poopie diapers but really the poop was chocolate and you had to guess which kind, this was my favorite. We ate lots of food had delicious cake and then opened presents. Thanks to all who came.
