Which has been increasing in size as of late. Maybe it's just back to the normal size and because I lost weight in the beginning, I got used to it being small.
22 weeks now. I get kicked all the time. He stopped waking me up at 5am, which I was grateful for. I have an appointment in a couple of weeks. My controlling nature is starting to rear it's ugly head as I am feeling more and more dissatisfied with my doctor. Not that I don't like him, but he may be a little laid back for my high-maintenance personality. We'll see how the rest goes.
I did get the nursery painted. I won't post pics until I have the border up, because it looks a little silly the way it is right now. But, it's very very cool. I love it. I may try to tackle the border here shortly.
My Christmas present from Jakie was a rocking chair and ottoman from Target! We went around the city looking for a Target that had the one I wanted. We tried ours -- West Allis and then had to run out to West Milwaukee (like, right by Miller Park) to find it. We finally put it together today, as we had the Christmas tree in the way, which is now gone. It is very nice. I'm pretty excited.
We also went over to Babies R Us to register some more. I had started one online, and I wanted to add to it in person, because that's way more fun. And it was. We got a coupon for $5.00 off a $25.00 purchase, so when we were done, I bought a pillow to lay my tummy on when I'm sleeping and two really cute outfits. One is a pair of swim trucks and a t shirt and the other is a onesie with a bib that matches. We now have 4 outfits and a hat hanging in the closet. I have another outfit from Brooke (my SIL) from USC, but I still have to get a dresser to store such a thing.
I also have a small registry on Amazon.com, for my bedding, which they only have a little bit of on BRU. I'm still debating Target. I really, really should do Target, because it's so much more widespread, but I think that would just be really simple stuff -- like bottles, toys and clothes. I will think on it. BRU is just not that widespread around WI. Of course, you can order online, but sometimes, that's just not that fun! :)
Also got some very cool baby stuff from Kristine and Josh for Christmas. A little picture frame, some scrapbooking stuff, etc. So, I bought the book I will use for a baby scrapbook. I bet you anything, I will have a baby scrapbook finished before my wedding one -- mostly because, after 3 years (for my paid for album) and 2 years (for paid for reprints), I still don't have the pictures! Can you believe that?!
Moral of the story there is always have a friend who is an amazing photographer do your wedding pictures. Because it will be a better deal, you will get the proofs on DVD and you won't have some idiot dumping pictures that you might want to keep. As we did. Plus, they were JUST learning to use digital photography on our wedding (which should have been some sort of discount), so a lot of the pictures were TERRIBLE!
Oops! Off on a little rant there.
But, at least it reminds me to go email them again about the stupid pictures. *roll eyes*
I can't wait to get more baby stuff. Actually, what I am really excited to get is my cloth diapers. Kristine found one of the ones that I want at Target in GB, so I actually got to look at them in person. I like them even more now. I can't decide if I want to get 24 of the one size diapers and just use them all the way through or get 12 of the AIO extra small size for when he's little and still has an umbellical cord waiting to fall off. I think it would be prudent to get the 24 one size and maybe 6 of the AIO, just in case. I could always sell them online if I didn't need them. We'll see what Jake sez. That's a lot of money in the short term, but not in the long term.
