Killing time at work

I've had a larger than normal amount of desk/computer work this past week at work which has been a good and a bad thing. It is good because I've been able to relax and stay off my feet for the majority of the day, but bad because I have been staying off of my feet for the majority of day which is spoiling me and making me lazy. My residents are constantly joking about whether or not I'm sure I'm only carrying one baby and my co-workers are making fun of the pregnancy waddle that I'm starting to acquire. Resident families can't keep track of my due date and our continuously asking me if I'm past due, no I'm not that big and I've got three more months left thank you! This pregnancy gig sure attracts a lot of attention.
We've taken a break from the nursery aside from the addition of one other item, the drapes. I love the purple because it fits perfectly with the Disney Princess theme, and also ties along with our castle decal that I'll be putting up over the crib. I'm still on a hunt for a glider off of craigslist. I refuse to spend more than 100 bucks on this chair. We went to babies r us to register, and the chair they had suggested was well over $800 bucks including the ottoman, yikes! I think I'd rather go to Mexico.Jeff and I went into REI the other day to look around and I found this cute little vest for peanut. I think it may be my favorite item of clothing so far mainly because I can't wait to take her out hiking in it!

In other news, Jeff told me today that he is approaching a promotion which means.... he will be working in Colorado in a little while! The reason why I'm so excited about this is because it means when I go into labor, he will only be 3 hours away instead of 8. Phew! I've been really worried about that whole scenario for a while. So unless I have an abnormally fast delivery, he should be able to make it home in time for all the fun stuff!

  1. Yes, your belly is large - but that is normal for your pregnancy! People constantly asked me the same things when I was pregnant with AddyLouHoo. Towards then end, I kept telling Eric, if I get one more comment about twins, being huge, or did they get your due date right, I am going to punch somebody in kisser. But mostly, you just have to grin and bear it.

    EXCELLENT news 'bout Jeff and work. That would stress me out too and stress is bad for the peanut. Hope you are feeling well. xoxo from the stagg clan

  3. Love the purple. What a pretty touch! I agree with Jolene, it stinks people calling you huge all the time and asking if you are past your due date, but you learn to ignore it. At least your residents have an excuse for forgetting the due date :)
