When I look back on photos of me pregnant I smile. But then I grimace a little too. I really liked being pregnant all three times. Except towards the END. No, I was not a fan of the terrible “morning” sickness I had with B and my “Wall-E” feet that I had with K. And…
Rockin’ the Bump!
I happened upon this link up over at Shell’s blog, Things I Can’t Say, and just had to join in. I really enjoyed being pregnant, except for maybe the last month or so with Baby K* I had Tim take pics of me while about 30 weeks pregnant with The B Man and I kinda…
Baby Pangs
Before the day I found out I was pregnant with K I thought a lot about having another baby. And I mean A LOT. I’ve always pictured myself as a mother of three. I’m not sure why, I just have. But truthfully, about the time that she came to be, I was resigned to being…
WW – My Last Preggo Post
So today is the day before I become the mother to my daughter. The last full day of my pregnancy with the little girl that I am now counting the hours until I meet. Let’s take a little walk down Preggo Lane, shall we? Me at 16 Weeks – a.k.a – the week I “popped!”…
38 Weeks is a LONG Time
I kinda felt like just hiding in the shadows yesterday. The only reasons I left the house was to pick The B Man up from school and return a DVD from the library, all in one trip. I showered late and didn’t eat very much. There’s not that much room left. My body is tired…
Sonograms are Better Nowadays, Right?
I’ve been wrapped up in expecting a girl. The clothes, the bows, the PINK, the polka dots (I love me some polka dots!), the idea of dressing MY child in a DRESS and it being well, APPROPRIATE. I went to our new dentist this morning and the hygienist (who’s probably in her early ’50’s) felt…
What I Will Miss About Being Pregnant
As much as I’ve been complaining about my cankles and tiredness lately, I will miss being pregnant for a few reasons… Eating Whatever I Want Whenever I WantYep, that’s what I do when I’m pregnant. Of course the first trimester was kinda dicey but after that, it’s Katy Bar the Pantry Door! (and the fridge…
Boys ‘N Belly
I’ve had the idea for a while that I wanted some professional ‘belly pics’ during this pregnancy. I’ve never had any done before and this time I wanted to do it, if possible. I had my photographer picked out (because she’s awesome and she’s photographed our family twice in the past) until……We moved. Once we…
Gettin’ Ready – PSF
Above the crib it says “Every child is a story yet to be told” The other day The B Man helped me unpack packages of pink and purple and flowered onesies and hooded towels and sleepers and tiny socks. All the while telling me how much of a help he is going to be when…
Let’s Get Real
My life as a mother is not perfect. Quite far from it actually. As I type this my toddler is having a full on meltdown and at this point, is headed to bed over an hour early. Along with his older brother. I don’t claim to be the perfect parent and I don’t ever think…
