We're Not Ready!

Oh my god, I just realized the creepy floating baby to the right is now in double digits, not triple anymore.

And I was reading a story about this lady who developed toxemia and delivered at 33 weeks, and I was saying to Danny: imagine if that was us, that would be 6 weeks from now.

The changing table, crib mattress, and the bassinet are out in the hall. I am only 1/5 of the way done with moving my closet out of the baby's future room and into our room. There are clothes everywhere, most of which I am giving away anyway. There are bills that I haven't filed, a few months worth, in a pile on a desk that is supposed to be gone from the baby's room entirely. Stevie is still too bad to be within 50 yards of a newborn. I need to balance the checkbook. I haven't caught up on all my US Weeklys. I need to paint my toenails. I got two new cds that I haven't even opened yet. I am not ready for this kid to come! I just need eight or nine more trimesters.

On the other hand, I couldn't take any more trimesters. I have felt like crap for weeks and weeks (and weeks) now. I am just now heading into my third trimester and I can't wait for it to be over. I just want to sleep every single minute. I am over being pregnant, the same way I was over being pregnant at about 9 weeks. I feel bad saying that because it is supposed to be such a special time blah blah blah, and it is in a way of course, but in another way, it is such a SUCKY time. This baby better be cute after all this crap!

The Giggler

We got this ball for Stevie that when you roll or shake it, it makes this horrible giggly sound. She loves it and acts like a maniac when she plays with it, as you can see!
