Happy New Year everyone!!
We had a very laid back new years; dinner with the in-laws and then home to relax and be lazy together, watching movies until midnight when we watched the ball drop and gave each other smooches :)
This is the year Adelynn will be here!!
I went to the doctor last week and they told me I'll be coming every 2 weeks now! So my next appointment is Jan 12th. I passed my glucose test with flying colors (woo hoo!) which was a relief, and Doc said everything else looks great! I haven't gained any weight since my last appointment (11/29) which was SHOCKING, still only 11 Ibs. so far this pregnancy, I'm just waiting to balloon up all of a sudden lol.
I'm starting to get to work on my check list, I'm almost in the third trimester so it's time to kick it in to gear and start getting some stuff done! I signed us up for our hospital tour at the end of February, Mid January is my BFing class, I bought 3 DVDs off Amazon: One for BFing, One birth class, one for baby care basics. I also bought a BFing book! I know nothing will prepare me for parenthood, BUT at least I won't be going in to everything totally blind. I want to prepare as much as I can for BFing and L&D! Can't hurt right? I need to start looking for a pediatrician!
One thing I'm suuuuuper tired of, all the "just wait" comments Joey & I keep getting. "You're tired now? Just wait till the babys here and you get no sleep!" or "Date night? Whats that? Once you have the baby you won't have the time OR money for that!" and on and on.... Joey and I have never had a child, yep thats a true fact. However, if we weren't ready for the change in our lives...we weren't ready for the responsibility, the financial change, etc... we wouldn't have decided to start a family. Yes we know it will have its hard times, we will be tired, things might get hard- but don't you think Adelynn is SO worth it? I'm really sick of hearin it!
I'm also having to be SUPER careful about what I post on FB, cause lord knows I post one tiny comment and people BLOW ME UP with their opinions and advice. it happens in person to-everywhere! I appreciate it, but if I don't ask for it....don't give it to me! I know that probably sounds mean but sometimes it just gets overwhelming.
We're happy about this baby, we want this baby; yes it won't be all good all the time, it'll get hard at times- but we're trying to keep positivity flowing. I don't think theres anything wrong with that!
January is gonna be a crazy busy month at work for me! and February we have so much going on but I'm so excited: Brynn's baptism in Charlotte, our 3 year wedding anniv, Tina's baby shower, 3 of my own baby showers, Valetines Day, etc. INSANE! but will be so much fun. Before I know it, it'll be March and we'll be 4 weeks away from Adelynn being here!! Crazy!
Loving life right now, so excited for the next few months and can't wait to meet our baby girl!
