67 days left!!!

This is day number 213
You're 30 weeks pregnant
Your baby's age since conception is 199 days / 28 weeks
There are 67 days until your due date! (23.9% to go)

My goodness the time is flying by!! I am getting a bit nervous now!

We had a few people in lastnight! Probably one of the last times we'll have guests in before the baby comes because I'm getting pretty tired, and lastnight almost killed me! I had a major headache this morning, and had to sleep for two hours this afternoon to take it away! But it was worth it because we had a lot of fun and yummie food!

I'm getting ansy now, work is getting to me and I don't think I'll be working much longer in all honesty. It would be different if I wasn't so uncomfortable and stuff, and if I was sleeping properly each night. Sleeping sitting up and being up a bunch of times throughout the night isnt' nice, and its making me a miserable person the next day at work. I think If I could be home relaxing I would be much happier, and everyone else would be better off.... so we'll see soon enough! I go see my doctor on Friday! YIPPEEE!

I'm going to see if I can find out the size of the baby as well when I'm at my appointment. I'm so big now that I can't imagine getting any bigger. I would kind of like to know how big this boy is!! I still have two months to go!

Well I will talk to you again later, I'm going to post a picture of my belly that was taken this morning! :)

Talk to you again soon!

Another Day... Another Dollar?

Hi everyone! Haven't posted in a while, I'm finding it hard to do anything these days. And I'm just going to warn you right now that this is going to be a big old complaining suckie post!

I have been SO incredably tired! I don't know how I'm ever going to make it another 10 weeks, and yes today it is exactly 10 weeks left!!!!! Here is my information from SheKnows.com for today:

This is day number 210
You're 30 weeks pregnant
Your baby's age since conception is 196 days / 28 weeks
There are 70 days until your due date! (25.0% to go)

WHOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!!

Anywho I got my crib lastnight, and it is soooo nice! Jeff put it together and I got the bedding ready and took lots of pictures! When I get home from work I am going to put a picture up on here for you all to see! :) Its so exciting to get these things off my list! I can't wait to have a baby so we can start using some of these things!!!

WALMART opened on tuesday! And its amazingly HUGE! I couldn't believe the size of it compared to the other ones i've been in. I love it! Jeff and I bought a whole bunch of stuff lastnight, and I can't wait to go back! I've already decided tho that i'm not stepping foot in there again untill i'm done working. I was so tired lastnight after working and then standing onmy feet, and not to mention I was sweating to death because my coat is as heavy as I am almost! Next time i'm going to go when I can take my coat off... relax and be well rested! Then I can enjoy it more!! :)

Anyways going to go now. I have to do some work for a while .. but check out my crib later!!

Nite everyone!

Getting Tired..

Hi guys, tonight was a hard night! I'm getting SO out of breath now. I can't even speak without loosing my wind. Baby must be pushin on my diaphram now or something!!

I'm 29 weeks pregnant as of today! Very exciting! I just can't wait for this little guy to make his entrance into the world! Check out this website to see how big the baby is now:

http://www.umm.edu/pregnancy/9monthmiracle/tools/fetaltool.html

I found this link at Todays Parent.com, its been really nice to have! Of course its just a rough guestimate, but It helps me understand whats really going on in there when I'm getting the aches and pains!

I was off work yesterday (Thursday) and I took today off too. I have been getting bad pains in my chest right under my boobs. The doctor says its something to do with reflux in my stomache and its iritating my esophagous. Needless to say yesterday I was really sore and today I needed the rest because it has been keeping me up at nights. Hopefully by monday i'll be rarin to go! :)

Today is my moms birthday, but we didn't get to town to visit. We are going to have a birthday party on sunday when things are quieted down. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!

We really did have full intentions of going to town tonight, but turned around at the Irving (10minutes from our house) and came back home. Jeff was feeling tired and I am ALWAYS feeling tired, so we decided to rent a movie on our new PPV/Satelight. I ended up talking on the phone for an hour tho, so I missed the first half.... and now its time for bed!

Anyways baby is moving a lot! We've come up with some names. They are
Cody, Cole, Ben, Ty and Carsen. What do you like best? Let me know! Jeff is very passive, so i'm hoping that when the little guy pops out he will look like one of these names!


Heading off to bed now, thats my update for today!! Will post again tomorrow!

81 days left..

This is day number 199
You're 28 weeks pregnant
Your baby's age since conception is 185 days / 26 weeks
There are 81 days until your due date! (28.9% to go)

Your baby's taste buds are forming, and he may respond to a variety of tastes such as bitter, sweet, and sour.

So this is my info for today.. :)

Today we had a busy day! Baby kicked ALLLLL day long! :) I'm starting to be able to read his sleeping patterns. He's awake for 30 minutes sleeps for an hour, and sometimes if he gets a big burst of energy from me drinking OJ or whatever he'll be up for 45 minutes and he'll not just kick, but rolllll all over the place! Its gettin more fun as the days go by!!

well...

The Golden Globe awards are on tonight, I'm excited to see all the pretty dresses! I'll probably be listening for all the names too. Jeff went to the store and got me some brownies!!! I can't wait to sit back with my big glass of milk and eat them!! :D

Anyways I'm going to go watch Desperate Housewives for now untill the GGs start.. its such a fun show! Its my new favorite!!


TTUL!

Finally We'll Meet - a poem for baby

I love you, little baby
You're such a part of me.
Can't wait to hold you in my arms,
And hug you tenderly.
No matter what you look like,
You're beautiful, my love,
A precious gift bequeathed to me,
From heaven far above.
Each time I feel you moving,
My heart is filled with joy,
To think that very soon I'll hold
My beautiful little boy,
I'm counting every moment,
Til you're mine at last, my sweet
It won't be long until your birth,
Then finally we'll meet...

This is my room and belly at 28 weeks! We are starting to make progress!!

82 DAYS LEFT!!!

Hello again!
Thanks for stopping by! The weeks are flying by, only 12 weeks left untill our baby joins us!! :)
I have been so busy trying to organize the nursary and get things ready, I know we still have 12 weeks left, but it seems to be going so fast that I can't keep up! I have a lot of stuff now... still no crib tho! Mom and I are planning a trip to Moncton soon so we can pick one up, I think after I have it I'll feel a little bit more organized ( I know thats weird, but I'm such a big planner that when I don't have things organized it drives me crazy! Ask Jeff!). We are going to get a crib to match the furniture in the room. There is a nice one at sears, but I want to make sure I check out all the stores around here first, just so I know we got the best one for us!

Anyways there is no new news this way... but I am checking my daily counter and this is what it says for me today...

This is day number 198!!
You're 28 weeks pregnant
Your baby's age since conception is 184 days / 26 weeks
There are 82 days until your due date! (29.3% to go)

How exciting!!

Chow! TTUsoon!

Tiffany is thinking........"I want to pee in this!"

This is my new wagon!

What is this THING?!

Lots of baby stuff!

Today I picked up a couple more items for our little boy!

A lady was moving out west with her two children and was selling everything. I managed to salvage a stroller, exer-saucer, and a really cute wagon.... all for $80.00!!! The stroller and wagon are like new, however the saucer just needs a little TLC. I am going to post a picture of my new stuff to show ya!

I'm so excited! I know i say that all the time, but I am!!

The OC is on now, so I can't concentrate on typing! i'll TTUL.....
it took me 15 minutes to type the last sentence!!

85 days left!

Hi there, thanks for stoping by! I'm starting this blog spot for our friends and family... so that you can all watch and read our progress. I started one of these blogs a while back, but found it stupid because I was just talking about myself.... and who wants to read that ? So I stopped! LOL This on the other hand is about our little boy! So it should be much more fun and interesting to keep up with!

I'm 27 weeks and 5 days today! I will be having our baby April 8th, 2005... if all goes well! I've been feeling really good lately, except for the usual pregnancy pains here and there and the lack of sleep. I've been finding myself waking up in the nights with my stomache growling so hard it hurts, and besides that I can never get comfy because of this big belly ! I recently bought a wedge pillow that you stick underneath your belly when you sleep. Its supost to keep you level with the bed, but I find it just rolls me over onto my back, because its to big of a slope. :) I supose it doesn't help the fact that I prefer to sleep on my back anyways.....

We have been getting antsy for this baby to come! Just last week we found out we were having a boy! We really suprised all you guys didn't we? EVERYONE seemed to think we were having a girl, you guys almost even had ME convinced and when DR. Harebottle said...

"Its a boy, there is the penis and the testicles."

I didn't believe him!!!!! LOL. I think I was more in shock for the rest of the day, but Jeff was beside himself.... supositly he "KNEW" he we were having a boy. He keeps saying that he was using "reverse psychology" on all of us, and even the baby! (because he kept saying he thought it was a girl).

We are quite excited, and I am accumulating stuff here and there for him (with the help of Sharron, my soon to be mother-in-law). So far I have a chest of drawers, change table, vibrating chair/swing, a glider, all the bedding and curtain decor, stuffed animals, one pair of shoes, some outfits and a little tent like net thing for outside in the summer to keep the bugs away. As soon as we found out it was a boy we went out and purchased three little outfits made especially for a boy! I bought another one lastnight, but thats all we have in male clothing. The rest is unisex! The nursary is all painted and ready to go, and we even purchased new carpet and mouldings for the room (which jeff installed himself!). I also painted a Pooh mural on the wall, and everyone makes fun of it because the eye on piglet is low on his face due to the fact that its a mural of the "classic pooh" characters rather than the NEW pooh. Whatever! I like it and thats all that matters!!!!! :P

I am getting very excited, I can't wait for this little guy to come out so I can hug him and kiss his little cheeks off!!!!!! Jeff thinks that he's going to be taking him hunting, playing hockey and all this other foolish stuff... but you'll see, he's going to be a mummies boy! I'll have him cleaning and shopping and loving to come with mummie!!! (yeah right your all saying... but you'll see!!!!!!!!) LOL. I am already obsessed with him. One sunday about two weeks ago I sat and video taped my belly for the whole day, watching him move around in there.. I can't help myself, he amazes me already and I haven't even met him yet!!!

Well i'm going to go now, and post this message and keep working on the page. There isn't a whole LOT you have to do on these blogger sites, but they are fun and they sure do the job!

I have posted a picture of my belly that Jeff took for me tonight! I'm a BIG momma!!! LOL

Talk to you all soon, i'm going to try to post at least once a week!
