Pregnancy Brain and Fall Favorites...

Today is Week 30!  OH MY - 9-10 weeks left?  EEEIIIIKKKKKK...  It is starting to set in that we are definitely having a baby.  

 Especially when I look in the mirror.  (What was I thinking with the horizontal stripes? - Good Lord.)  Yep, it's real.  No turning back now!

And I am pretty much SCARED.TO.DEATH.  I am.  My minds wonders all the time and I find myself thinking about these questions:
  • What am I to do with this baby named Ledger?  What/who will he look like?  Please Lord let him have Brad's patience and NOT mine......
  • Will I do everything wrong?
  • How much do I need to feed him?  
  • What schedule do I put him on since every baby book author pushes a different schedule and thinks theirs is PERFECT?
  • Spit up, throw up, poopy diapers?  Gag me....  (Everyone says it is different when it is your child.....  Well, we are about to see if that is true or not.)
  • Will I realize what a contraction is when the time comes?
  • Will I make it to the hospital in time for the MOST IMPORTANT epidural and much needed drugs?  Not ashamed....  Bring them on.
  • Oh MY - Our lives are about to change!  Am I being selfish to think that?  
I know, I will figure it all out.  It's just so darn overwhelming!  And like my mom tells me, "Heather, you are not the first girl to ever get pregnant!"  Thanks Sharon....:)

And I am so so clumsy these days.  Tripping over 1 cm cracks on pretty much any sidewalk, stumbling down some stairs, dropping everything that my hands touch, etc... It's like nothing I have ever seen.  (Thank the Lord I am a teacher and kids love picking up things for me off the floor, running errands, and I can pretty much boss them around to get things for me at any time of the day and they don't think I am being bossy.  Awesome.) And trying to form a sentence sometimes, is like writing a 25 page term paper.  The words are just not there.  I couldn't find my cell phone last week.  Looked for over an hour.  In the fridge, by the milk.  Really?  What has happened to me?  

And my eating is pretty much out of control.  It's unreal...

Cannot put enough of these in my mouth.  It has become a sickness.   I am on White Chocolate Kit Kat overload. 

My dinner tonight.  I love some breakfast for dinner.  Brad doesn't get it nor understand.  His loss...:)

Since my free time is about to become NON-existent, I have been loving some TV lately.  My new favorite show has to be:

 WOWIE!   This show will keep you on your toes at all times.  And talk about scandalous.  Love, love love it!  It would be hard to understand if you haven't watched from Episode One, so Netflix this ASAP!  Amazing.

Chrisley Knows Best:
AND this is one that I am quite obsessed with.  Embarrassing maybe to admit, but this show CRACKS me up like none other.  Brad and I will lay in bed and laugh so hard our sides are killing us during each weekly episode.  (I am sure he loves me sharing this...) I love me some Todd Chrisley!   Such a HOOT.  I would kill to meet this Dad of five.  


Favorite letter I have received lately....  Just a 3rd grader's spelling homework.  I about died when I came across this.   (Instructions:  Write a short letter to me using 5-7 spelling words.)
#Priceless....





My favorite Halloween costumes ever... Well Marlowe (aka "Melmo" was having a rough night last Friday.  Poor sweet girl!  Maybe she can don her costume for Thanksgiving?)  But the lil Army guy and piece of pizza had a ball from the stories I heard.  
Miss these three so so much.... 

Off  to find a snack.  The pancakes and bacon didn't suffice.  Maybe I should just go to bed instead?

Happy Weekend (nearly!) - Love these 4 day weeks....  Makes all the difference in the world.  I love Louisiana Election Day.

Love,


~H
