Finally, A New Post!

Wow! Two weeks since my last blog! How does the time get away from me?
Life is crazy and I know in the next few months it will just get crazier! Joe and I were talking the other day how we haven't been home for the weekend or had an event free weekend in the past 4 weeks. The next four are booked too! I think we are way to involved in things for my own liking! The next three weeks are all family events-this weekend going to Mobile for our nieces bday party, next weekend celebrating our other niece's birthday with my side of the family, the weekend after that going to South Carolina for my sister's baby shower, and then finally we will be home the weekend after that, but are having family pictures done that Sat! Not to mention all our apartment life weekend activities! It's nuts!
This girl is ready to take a break!!!
Ok, aside from my complaining, we are doing great! We got cable last week, and that's probably another reason why my blogs are fewand far between! I really don't have a lot of time to watch T.V., while I'm chasing an EXTREMELY active toddler around and being exhausted from being pregnant, but when she goes down for her nap, I veg out in front of some "Lifetime"! It's so nice! And I don't have to hope we have internet connection that day to watch my fav shows on Hulu! I am really enjoying it!
In pregnancy news, I am 28 weeks now! Yeah! And definetly a lot bigger at this point than I was with Maddy. My Dr. had a little talk with me about my weight gain at my appointment yesterday. Somehow I went from great weight gain, to jumping and gaining 12lbs in 8 weeks! I think Gabriel is just going to be a bigger baby and that's fine with me! I took my glucose test yesterday and aced it! I still can't believe it came up on me so fast! I remember feeling like I had been pregnant forever before I took it with Maddy. This time, I was like, "Oh wow, it's here already??"
Next week we go to Kid's Market to shop! I am really excited! I'm hoping to find a few things to finish out his room and then we'll be done! I still have to put curtains up and get his bumper though! I can't wait to see his room all done! I have to confess that I am a litte jealous of my sister-Miss Overachiever, who already has her entire nursery ready for Baby Brie and a closet FULL of clothes for her! I have about 5 outfits, but like, I said, hopefully Kid's Market will fix that!
I am definetly starting to really feel this pregnancy lately. Back aches, leg cramps, heartburn, exhaustion, sore feet, things growing and stretching, being out of breath, ect! It's really getting harder to pick up Maddy, bend down alot, shave my legs, get in and out of bed, ect! However, I really do love being pregnant! It always seems to go by so fast! Pregnancy and the new born faze just seem to fly by for me!
Speaking of the new born faze flying by...Maddy is now 17 months! She has become Miss Independent, which makes me sad! She wants to do everything herself! Forget about holding Mommy's hand when he go somewhere, she is on her own schedule! She says "baby" all the time, and is now saying "juice","wall",her friend's names, "brush", her name, but it sounds like "Maline" and her favorite word and thing "cookie"!
Well, thats about it! Hopefully my next post wont be so long coming!!
