Funny Memory Story

Yes my memory sucks, and it seems to have gotten even worse.  Listen to my tale and be your own judge.

Sunday morning I have a monthly meeting at 10am that goes until 11am or so.  Well this last Sunday was no different, it got out around 11:15 and I get asked by the clerk, secretary, I don't recall his title...but Bro Mike asked if hubby and I would say the prayers in Sacrement.  I then proceed to say "can't hubby say both of them? I really hate getting in front of people, they scare me too much" and so on.  So after a few moments of banter I accept to have us say the prayers. 

12:00 I go home, eat something cause I'm STARVING, wait for hubby to return from fast offerings proceed to go to church at 12:45.

1:00 I'm in YW, teach class.
2:00 have my YW presidency meeting, meet our new closet (which we've been highly anticipaiting for about 6 months now and start forming plans on when to move closets)
2:45 go to Sacrement, sit down on our bench.  Hear the announcement of my name saying the opening prayer..."Oh Crap" I tell no lie, it was a verbal oh crap moment and the lovely Mrs. B who sits in front of me laughs, as I proceed to inform her I completely forgot we were doing the prayers and I haven't even told hubby.  Mind you, Mrs. B was in the morning meeting with me and heard me get asked to say them.

So, how GREAT is my memory, huh!

Yes, we are still alive & kicking

I've decided I must be horrible at sharing news.  Since I don't see many things changing at our house I don't think there's any news worth sharing.  Granted, my stomach is getting bigger and we're both still avidly working at avoiding the reality that in a month and a half (or so) we'll be parents...at least I am.  yet a part of me still thinks that I'm a child myself...I'm never gonna grow up!!  Yet in the same respect I'm also attempting to slowly get things ready for Little One.  Sadly I think its been too slow as I've had the room "almost" empty for many months now.

BUT...hold your horses and sit back down...we did order our crib and it should be in town in a week or there abouts.  OK, so I truly forgot when we actually ordered it and shipping takes 7-14 days to arrive.  Sooo maybe next week we'll have a crib in the room instead of just a bassinet and an ironing board and a few outfits hanging in the closet.

I arrived yesterday at work with a present on my desk and I believe my reaction was the wrong one.  So sorry guys!  Instead of being excited and jumping for joy I shrugged away from it, pretending it wasn't there.  I'm still in denial with a few things, if you haven't noticed.  So Thank You for the gift!!!  We now have a play pen we can lock little one in.

I also learned what "you're right on track" meant from our Doc.  Apparently when they measure your stomach, the measurement is considered normal if you're within 2 numbers (inches I think it is) either higher or lower than the current week your on.  So yesterday was our 34 week check up (WOW I know) and we measured within the appropriate ranges to be considered normal.  No idea what the measurement was, but we're still normal.  Then we heard the heartbeat and were sent on our way.  Which is about the just of our latest string of appointments.  We'll see what the next one brings.

It's really creapy when you glance down at your stomach and see it moving. Granted I know it's little one just moving around, it's still just wrong. AND nobody told me that your innie becomes an outtie! Not sure if I like having an outtie as a belly button, it's just a tad odd.

Random I know.

I'm normal...so they say

Yesterday was our 28 week check up....I still don't understand the whole week vs month thing, but thats a tangent for another day.

We sat at the doctors office waiting for him to arrive for a good hour or so since he was running late.  Luckily I didn't have to do the sugar test over again as they drew my blood shortly after we arrived.  The rest was just waiting in the room for him.

Once he did arrive it was done in like 5 minutes, 10 if we were lucky but I don't think it went that long.  We heard the heartbeat after some searching to find her, as well as having our first tape measurement.  Why the tape measurement and the significance of it, I have no idea...but she measured 28, which he said was good.  After the measurements, he is great at asking if we have any questions.  Sadly, we have no idea what kind of questions we should be asking!!

If any of you know what type of questions we should ask, please let us know...we're in the dark here!!

Later in the day I did receive a call back regarding the sugar test, they said I'm normal!!  So to all those who think I'm crazy or losing it, doc says I'm normal!

Update

Sorry I'm horrid at updating lately.  First off, things are going okay.  Both of us have been sick and I'm to blame.  Honestly not sure where I got the cold from but its stuck around for the last 2 1/2 weeks then I gave it to hubby last week.  So we're being sickies together at home...lucky for hubby he can take stuff to help with it where I on the other hand tend to overdose with cough drops.

This last week was a hard one for us as our dear beloved Grandpa passed away.  The graveside services were wonderful and simple.  I don't think I was to great at comforting hubby as its the first for his side and he's gone through 4+ with me.  It helps that we know of the eternal plan and that one day we'll be able to see Grandpa again.

Oh, also we're HUGE slackers.  Two Saturday's ago we actually attempted to look at baby furniture but I was so miserably sick that hubby took pity on me and took me home after only an hour being gone.  Since then we both have been sick and have not wanted to leave the house or do anything.  Maybe one of these days/weekends we'll get our act together.

I've had to reschedule my doc appointment to a week later in hopes that I'll at least be over the cold as they want to do a sugar test and forewarned me that if I tried drinking the "stuff" while sick that it'd more than likely make me ralph.  Since I haven't done that yet I really don't want to experience it, so I took their advice and postponed.

Oh, another cool splurge I guess was my cell wouldn't charge anymore because of pins missing or something, so I had to get a new phone...which meant hubby had to get a new phone too.  So we both opted to go for iphones...they're fun!!

Otherwise, I think that is it for new stuff with us.
