Sorry Guys

The last trimester has arrived and with it returned my energy and will to do something so I've been cleaning the house and getting ready for the arrival of the little one.

I had another ultrasound today where I learned that it is definately a boy no doubt about it. He's between 12-13 inches long so far and a little over 3lbs. He has already turned and his head down and ready to come out. The doc says he may come a little early since he seems to be so eager about getting ready. He said he was in the 45th percentile so I have a completely average baby as far as height and weight. Cool. He wasn't concerned at all about me not gaining a lot of weight. I've actually gained 4lbs now which is about how much the kid and fluid weighs. The new ultrasound doc says weight gain is an individual thing and I have the right body type and hip position to support a pregnacy without gaining extra weight. Cool.

The house is starting to look neat. I had originally planned to wallpaper the bottom of the baby's room with fishy wallpaper but then I found these really cool fish wallies where you would paint the wall and then just stick the fish on the wall like wall stickers. Valerie mentioned wanting to throw me a baby shower and possibly doing it at my house since it's big enough to hold everyone and people could stay as long as they wanted so that they could visit too. I thought maybe I could give everyone a page of the fish wallies and they could just have fun sticking them on the wall randomly. I have to run the idea by DH first though. He'll probably go for it though since it will be less work for us. :)

I have started some beading work as well again. I found some awesome beads to make necklace fobs so I'm probably gonna do a few more of those when the beads come in. I've been doing some beaded banners too which are kind of interesting and fun. It's all Melanie's fault, she brought a bunch of books to the Kansas City trip and let us go through and get what we wanted and now I'm beading with Delicas.

Not much else is going on. My life has become preparing for the little one which is normal I suppose. I'm looking forward to tonight. Halloween is Mischief the cat's favorite night of the year because a whole bunch of people ring the doorbell and give her attention. She has a blast every year and we have a blast watching her run to the door and stand up to try to see who is there every time the bell rings. I swear she meows at and tried to play with every kid that comes to the door.
