10-12-2008 - almost forgot: 18 weeks!

My mood while writing this blog: forgetful ^^

---

well! i nearly missed my 18 weeks blog, lol! opps :)

symptoms:

round ligament pain, mild and not bad at all
heartburn after spicy meals, or eating too much
dizzynes from standing up too fast (low blood pressure does this)

belly:

my bellay is gettin' bigger :D it's definitely more pregnant looking now than a week ago, which is amazing!!! people say im carrying high, and that makes sense (it's a girl!)

life:

lots of energy back, which is totally nice :) i've decided that from now until 28 weeks i would like to keep up a 3 activity-a-day routine :D i mix it up everyday, which is fun :) yesterday i did my cardio work out (20 mins), took the girls on an hour long walk on the beach (AWESOME!) and walked at the end of the day, like we always do.

weather permitting, that is. it's friggin windy and rainy today- so i might only get 2 activities in (the cardio and toning). i just looked out the window and it's raining again. JOY.

i've ben able to cook a lot more now that the first trimester is slowly fading away. yesterday i made fantastic fried chicken and these awesome french onion/ovenbaked/cheesy potatoes. delicious. i made the most BOMB spaghetti before that! tomorrow im trying my hand at apple turnovers :D mmmmm, which cottage cheese in the dough. delicious!

my girls are being socialized more everyday now that they are 1) older 2) have more shots and 3) i have more energy! they bark less at strangers and kids, are getting used to other dogs being around and are little dolls! they are nearly 100% potty trained!! little dogs are hard, but im persisitent :D ive been trying to teach rollover to them all week, but damned if they just don't want to learn. the girls are constantly being pet, asked to have pictures of them taken and i get to talk to a lot more people now :) yay!

the house is christmas-tastic. it's AWESOME! we have had neighbors come to our house just to see, lol.

my parents are buying us a new tv for christmas :D WOO! we were going to use the money on baby stuff, since we are trying to be done by the begining of march... but my mom pushed it :) im happy though!!!

baby stuff... hmmm, we are picking up the graco sweetpeace rocker on saturday, along with a carebear stuffed animal collection (all of them!) and a hippo playmat :) we haven't figured out what else we would like to purchase this paycheck- but i tmight not be toooo much. the girls are getting their hairs cut, shots, i need a mini back pack to take on walks/to the beach with me (to keep my hands free) and a few other misc. things. at any rate, i think im going to try and fit in the breastpump, and get that out of the way. thanks to kaharris, i now know what kind to get myself :D

alrighty mommas, im off. i have to pee like nobodies business and im BORED- so im going to try and find something interesting to cook for dinner :D happy holidays, and we're almost HALF WAY THERE!

I feel so special being mentioned in your blog! You have a good memory! I changed my name a while ago. LOL! So, did those Christmas lights ever make it up?
