No turning back

Not that I'd really want to turn back, it's just that there's a weekly revalation that I can't. I suppose if it came down to it I could sell my baby, but that seems like more work than it's worth so I'll just raise it and love it and then kick it out at 18. I guess with current trends it's going to be more like 24. Shit. It's funny though, you always think about how life will change, but until you have one of these little bundles growing inside you...... it's just different. I wish I could slow everything down and be able to record every moment. I love being pregnant so far, even what my boobs have been doing in the last week is pretty freakin amazing. Connor is kicking up a storm and people are finally able to feel him. It was a little freaky the first couple times I could feel him, there is a person inside me and one day he will go forth in the world and do things that I have done. Like eat iced tea mix from the jar and get a job in a crappy restraunt. Will he be great? Will he be healthy? Will he be a jerk and never stop kicking me?
At least you know that for the first 5 years they are all yours, mom and dad are the two coolest people in the universe and there's nothing they can't do! After that we gotta roll with the punches and try to keep up to how cool everyone else's parents are.

There's a boy inside me!

The doctor thinks I'm huge. On Monday I had a check up and a twin scare. Besides being enormous our Doc thought she heard two heartbeats, so off to the ultrasound with all sorts or baby adventure to think about. As it turns out I just have a huge baby, we'll get into that in a moment though. It's a boy! So Connor it is and no need to edit my previous blogs. Load off my mind. Twins would have been fun right up until I had them and then panic would ensue. Mostly I would worry about them being born too early and having sick babies, that and of course the worry that someone would buy us a stroller and it would be the double wide type. God I hate those strollers, your always in the way! But thankfully we have a healthy little man, the pics I added are pictures of the pictures as we haven't had them photocopied yet. The ultrasound itself was a stupid and nasty experience that I won't go into with much detail, I'll just say Ronda sucks. OOOOOHHHHH take that Ronda! I feel better now.

So we have a big baby, the stupid tech figured he was a week further than we thought and Stu was informed that he has a lineage of giant babies in his family. 12lbs, 10lbs, 9lbs..... only sweet dear Chris was smaller so I figure I have a 5% chance of having the dream birth where you sneeze and the baby slips out. That totally happens right? And on the day you want too? And they come out wearing really cute sleepers and say "I love you mom"? That's why I signed up for this in the first place you know. Shit I have a feeling I'm gonna get ripped off.

So househunting is continuing, we've seen a few places that are pretty ideal but it adds so much when you know that your going to have a larvae that grows into a crawling bundle of curiosity. I need outlet covers and baby gates! I find I freak out and need to prepare for events that won't happen for about a year from now. I'm a good little planner.
