Loo Thats Who

Back in April, I got semi-laid off; I went from 40 to 24 hours. I thought it was temporary, however; note the date.

But as my Husband keeps whispering....maybe it's a good thing. Take time for me, relax, bake the baby. It is a good thing. Over the spring I gardened, met with some Mom groups and planned the nursery (faeries, of course).

My biggest obstacle has been not to over eat, especially since I am coming home at my peak OMG I WANT EAT THIS CAR AND YOU! time. I am absolutely astonished that at SIX months pregnant, I have not once stopped at Mcd's, Wendys or BK (all three are on the way home, taunting me w/their frosty and FF promises of deliciousness). I am up about fifteen pounds.........................and counting.

(Note that I have left out any mention of DD)

Now I have taken up sewing. Enter exhibits A and B. I made these for my 6MO niece Harper.

So, lemme see.

I am seventeen weeks pregnant. What is going on:

Panty dropping, and not the sexy kind, the rolling under the belly kind.
still never had morning, afternoon or night sickness
still am not eating meat (with the exception of dark meat chicken)
I am not tired anymore
my boobs do not hurt anymore
and I still weight less than my husband.
The baby is the size of a baked potato and I have a TINY baby bump.


So, I pretty much feel normal.

Well, that was certainly easy! I did not get sick once, I get a bit nauseous every now and then but nothing that makes me boot.

LubDup. is not a meat eater, I will gag on spot at anything fleshy. *herk* ground meat seems to be okay, especially drowned in tomato sauce, tossed with pasta with a side of texas toast. yesh very okay. I have been living on breakfast foods! Eggs, cereal, yogurt, cottage cheese, and lots o lots of peanut buttah.

Weight. Watch OUT. Because I didn't get morning sickness, I didn't get that "I LOST ten pounds in my first trimester teeheetee" *SMACK*. No, not Loo....I gained seven pounds in two weeks. Then the fabulous metabolism for two kicked in and I dropped it all....so now I am only up four and that isn't so bad!

Tired. I am exhausted. Remember that insomnia problem I had? yeah, no problem! I sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.......

Oct 26th seems so fah away.

Dear Self,

So you know how EVERY morning there is a statey on 495 located at the 93 interchange; again, every morning? Take note, because next time instead of following you for five miles for going 80MPH he is going to stop your azz and smack you with a large and in charge ticket for said stupidity.

Signed,
yo dumb ass self.

I brought her in, she was very afraid and Demi was curious but was a lady, which is rare! So we lucked out w/that.



Then she went under the table to hide. I let her have her space and figured that she was stressed out. About ten minutes passed and I heard her wining, when I went to see what was up she looked at me and started crying and having a full on melt down. I picked her up and put her on her chaise lounge.





She chilled out there till Matt got home where this went on for a FEW HOURS!



This morning I gave her a bath, she was great. Getting blow dried wasn't her favorite thing but she tolerated it!



After I fluffed her all up I put a sweater on her because well, I am a jerk and like to clothe my dogs. She is obviously humoring me (unclear how long this temperament will last):



And one more just because We both fell asleep on the sofa spooning for an hour.
