HosTAGE

So this is for Pamela who threatened to hold our friendship hostage untill I posted again.  (and is probably bugged that I put 2 "l"s in until).  I am typing on my dad's old MAC which is my new MAC and it's fascinating bc it spells check on all programs automatically - it's great for me!  

Pregnancy I have decided, after being done with the horrible sickness, has been pretty easy for me.  I mean obviously this is minus the first 4 months, but besides that I am grateful for how easy it has been.  I mean don't take me wrong - not being able to bend in half is annoying, your baby kicking you as you are trying to fall asleep can get old and not sleeping for more than 3 hours because you have to have a potty break is frustrating - but I guess that's just how it is.  Plus, soon i'll be up every 3 hours to feed my baby, so oh well.  

I am currently organizing all baby clothes/hand-me-downs/gifts.  It's fun to see all the baby stuff out and excited to realize it's only 6 weeks away, which is not that long when you consider we will be waiting a total of 40 weeks.  AND when you consider I know more than one person who delivered 4 weeks early with their first baby - and that is in 2 weeks!!!  I am having cleaning ladies come to my house (which is a first since I lived at home) to do a deep cleaning.  I want a 'fresh' start of sorts for the baby.  

Josh is graduating in 5 weeks - and THAT is out of this world exciting!!!   He has had a few interviews and we are waiting to hear back from those people.  We are also sending out more and more resumes.  

I am always hungry it seems.  In the last 3 weeks I have eaten an entire rack of ribs on 2 different occasions.  SO YUMMY.  probably not so healthy.  My doc also has informed me that as long as I get sushi from a reputable restaurant I am ok eating it - so Sushi it is on Monday, and I am BEYOND excited because I have been craving it for months.  I do miss horseback riding, alot.  I daydream about it all the time.  I am excited to cuddle a lil tiny baby (think about that in baby talk - like wiw tiwy bawby).  I am excited to be a mom - which surprises me but excites me.  I am not stressed about delivery, so we will see when/if that kicks in.....
