A great appointment

So this week I started a new position in a different sales territory. Instead of the customers I've been working with for close to 4 years I have a completely new set of accounts. A bit of a challenge, but I've been keeping myself busy getting to know all of them. I started to get a cold/sinus infection Monday after dreaming of a green garden snake caught in my left nostril. It's been really annoying to be sick again since I just got over a 2 week sinus infection.

My doctor's appointment went great today & I'm just waiting for the glucose test results. Surprisingly the drink wasn't as bad as some have said. I was so happy to hear that I'm measuring in line with where I need to be & my weight gain is exactly where we want it. Thankfully not adding extra weight should help me to have less to lose after the baby. I'm pretty darn happy!

I just wish ppl at work would stop telling me pregnancy horror stories about crap like their teeth falling out & cracking during pregnancy because of lack of calcium. Sometimes it's best not to share those stories.

Reality

Ken & I just watched a labor & delivery video online including a video on the epidural process. All I have to say is good thing I won't be watching. Nothing seems to bother him & visuals can be a bit much for me at times. Makes me a little nervous for the big day!

Daddy's a painting fool!



Tonight we got the paint to do the stripes in Landon's room. We think it's looking really good! Leave us a comment & let us know what you think. We've gotten so much done already- now I'm on a mission to find a dresser.

Rude ppl

I cannot believe the amount of rude people I have come into contact with this week! Everyone please have a beverage on my behalf for "stress relief purposes". I will be soaking my feet, getting a foot rub from the hubs, & maybe sipping on a mocktail. I wish people would learn some manners- I pray that Landon doesn't grow up to be like some of the people I've been in contact with lately.

Progress in Landon's room!




Last night we brought the crib home & Kenny assembled it. It looks so great! It was just the finish we were hoping for. We've still got to paint the toy chest, set of drawers, & purchase a dresser. We will be using the rocking chair my mom had for my brother & I as babies & I think it will match the pecan color perfectly. I've included a few photos of his bedding which was only quickly put on the bed for looks & an idea of what his letters will look like hung above the bed. We are doing a music them for Landon so the letters are backed with albums & we'll be adding music notes & guitars to his bedding & mobile. Hope you enjoy seeing the progress!

My New Year's Resolution

This year I'm going to work on becoming a better version of me. I'm going to invest more time in things that I enjoy like finding new hobbies or practicing old ones. This will hopefully also include better choices about my health & well being. I want to become more involved in the Unitarian Church that we attend because I truly feel it is the right place for us. I want to be become an even better partner to Kenny. I want to support his dreams, goals, aspirations, & hobbies and show him more love and passion than ever before. With a balance of all these things I want to be a non-spazzy mom. I want to be able to look at situations without stress and anxiety and build a loving & supportive foundation for our son to grow & flourish. These are my resolutions- what are yours?
