Nesting...

I've been bad with updating again. Seems like all I want to do is sleep.

I've been slowly starting to nest. Picked out a color for the nursery, hoping to paint next month.
Now I'm busy deciding on wall decals. The theme is "woodland creatures".

I really like this one. Would get the tree's, squirrels and fawns in a darker brown and make the birds orange.

Word of the Day - Lie

Link: My First Dictionary

Nobody's cry baby..


I saw it and just couldn't resist.

Nobody warns you how shitty pregnancy is. Sure you expect the nausea and the morning sickness. But I guarantee that nothing prepares you for the rest of the agony that comes with it.
Tits so sore that I haven't taken my bra off in weeks. I've been tempted to shower in the damned thing on several occasions. Nipples raw and peeling. Just call me lizard nips.
Pee that smells alarmingly strange. I simply can't flush the toilet fast enough to keep the stank away. Oh and I wake up two times a night to pee. I've read that during your second trimester that it goes away but so far I wake up every single night and trek downstairs to the washroom at least twice a night. All I want to do is enjoy these last 6 months of quiet non-baby nights but nooooo-ooooo, I've got to pee. Adding to my night time misery is not being able to get comfortable now that I can no longer sleep on my tummy. Toss in a little insomnia and I'm miserable from dusk till dawn.
One of the girls at work had the nerve to say to me "Oh I loved being pregnant". I just wanted to punch her in the f*cking face. Smug b!tch. I would rather eat glass once a day for 9 months than be pregnant. It's horrible. Thank god it ends with child birth?
Did I mention that I am incredibly irritable? Because I am. I nearly threatened to punch an old man in the face when he was rude to me in line at Zellers. I haven't been this gnarly and aggressive since I was a misguided teenager. Which brings me to my bacne. Acne on my back. Marvelous. The other day Barry played connect the dots between my spots.

boo-f*cking-hoo.

Bassinet


Bought my first major baby purchase today. A bassinet w/ rocker stand. It'll be nice to have baby sleeping in our room the first few months without having to sleep in our bed with us. I'm starting to get a lil' baby crazy as each day passes.
While I was standing in line at Babies R Us we started talking ultrasound and learning the gender of your baby. Suddenly all the other moms in line started joining the conversation. I've just been initiated into the Mommy Club. Very strange. Strangers asking how far along you are and how your morning sickness is. Very strange indeed.
My ultrasound is February 15th and I'm hoping they'll tell me the babies gender but they might not. If they don't the back up plan is to pay for an ultrasound at BabyMoon and learn the gender there. I'm dying to learn the gender. February seems so far away.

Knocked up...

Big changes are happening. I've just entered my second trimester of pregnancy. It appears as though the hubs and I had a wee bit too much fun whilst in Scotland. We brought a baby back with us.

At my last doctors appointment I heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time and shit got real yo. Since then I've received a few baby gifts and have even started to purchase things for the nursery on my own. Today I bought this piggy art poster by Michael Sowa.

So beware blog readers, those of you who are still around. This blog is about to become my venting place for all things pregnancy. From my sore and peeling nipples, my funny smelling pee, and the loss of my perfect vagina. Get ready for it.

Quotable Hitchens

"[Mother Teresa] was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction."



"Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are God. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realise that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods."



"The four most over-rated things in life are champagne, lobster, anal sex and picnics."

R.I.P. Hitchens

after a long battle with cancer he died. His writing and public speaking is the reason why I was able to let go of my religious conditioning.

Ice candle



First one of the year. The weather has been very cold this last week. Perfect for making ice candles.
