Bed Rest Day 1, Hour 3


It's been ordered. And not just a light order of, "lay down when you can," the exact words were, STRICT BED REST. I laughed. I seriously laughed at the nurse and said, "now that's a little dramatic don't you think?" Apparently she didn't think so. To make it even better, not only is this day 1 of bed rest, but I am also confined to my house. Every time I have to pee, I have to go in a bowl and dump it in a jug for the next 24 hours. They said to make sure that EVERY drop I have within the next 24 hours, goes in this jug. And since it didn't come with a cute carrying case, I am assuming they want to me stay home and do it in my own bathroom.
So now, I am in bed and I am bored out of my mind!! Obviously since I have little boy and he can't even wipe his own butt yet, I don't plan on staying in bed all day every day, it just sucks for today since I can't really leave the house.
And I need a manicure.

8 Months


Man O Man I can't wait to be done!! I know I hardly blog anymore but my fingers are so swollen that it takes an hour just to type. These little sausages never hit the right keys, jerks.
As I am typing this, I am 34 weeks, what's that, 8.5 months? I would give anything to be 37 weeks. As soon as I hit the big 37, I plan on pulling out all the labor inducing tricks. So if you have any amazing ideas on how to get the contractions going or my water to break, I'd love to hear them. :)

Little Boy, Party Of 1, You're Toilet Is Ready

Oh yes, we are potty training. Today was our 2nd full day. It's going amazing. Ok I am lying. The pee part is going amazing. He took right to it and loves to go and have me do the "Little Boy Is Awesome" dance after he goes. Today he even started to recognize when he had to go and he would come tell me. I can say, we have not had a single pee accident. Score right?
WRONG!!!
We have had 3 poop accidents. Seriously. It's annoying. Why can you come to me and say you have to pee, but when you have to poop, you run behind the couch, do your business, then come tell me, "oh yeah mommy by the way, I pooped." Thanks buddy.
How the heck can I get him to go on the toilet? I know it's not going to happen over night and that the poop part takes forever, but MAN!! He mastered the pee with no problem. So now I am determined to get him to master the poop part.
(Do you think I can set a record for how many times I say poop in this post?)
Seriously though, I just want him to get it down. I am not doing diapers anymore so I am hoping he just gets sick of going in his underwear. Fingers Crossed.

Goodies For Little Girl

So I am loving that Little Girl's nursery is almost done. But now I am getting so anxious because I am ready to put her in there.

This is her bedding that we picked out. I also got the matching curtains to go with it, I couldn't resist. Here is one of her diaper bags. Yes, I said one of. Most women have a purse problem, I have a diaper bag problem. With Little Boy, I think we had 4 diaper bags. And I say we because the Hubster had to have a manly one for him. Cute isn't he?
These are the letters I ordered to go over her crib. I didn't do dream though, I did Isabella, duh. But I loved the plain, lowercase look. Her bedding and curtains are so busy so I wanted the letters to be calm.

Also, I can't stop shopping here for Little Girl. There is the cutest stuff in this store and I am addicted!!

Well once I get the Hubster to put up her letters and get her shelves done, I will post pictures of the room all put together!!
