It's been
forever since I played in
Carissa's MM post, and I'm feeling very random today, so it's the perfect day to link up!
{1} So, I woke up this morning, looked out the window, and it was snowing. SNOWING! I mean, I know it's November already, and it's not that uncommon to have snow this time of the year...but, I was just so caught off guard. Usually the news/weather people will talk for days about the snow we're going to be getting, or the big Noreaster that's coming our way, and then we wind up getting nothing. Nada. And then there are days like today, when I have NO clue that snow's on the way, and I end up having to scrape ice/slush off my car. Good times on a Monday morning, let me tell ya!
{2} Um, did you guys know that Cadbury Mini Eggs are now out for Christmas?! Seriously...I think I might have peed a little when I was in CVS today and saw them staring back at me in the holiday candy aisle. (What? I love my candy! And I'm preggo. Nuff said.) Every year I look forward to Easter because I know that I'll be able to stock up on some Mini Eggs....Mmmm. And, now I get to buy them twice a year! I'm pretty psyched...if ya couldn't tell. ;)
{3} Speaking of being preggo....Baby Girl (yep, still no name. Grrrr.) seems to think my bladder is her own personal bongo set today. Oh MAN, it's the craziest feeling. Besides the fact that I feel like I have to pee all. day. long., it literally feels like she's knocking on my bladder/va-jay-jay simultaneously. Fun stuff, huh?
{4} We finally bought our first big nursery purchase tonight!! I'm SO excited. Jessica over at
http://www.thesouthernbellebaby.com/ posted a link to this awesome sale website (How the heck did I not know about this site?! I'm usually alllll about sale websites.) and they were featuring Ragazzi gliders (retail price $650!!), and we ended up purchasing a glider AND ottoman, with shipping, for only $185!! Pretty sweet deal if you ask me. I couldn't pass it up! You should definitely check out the website, and sign up if you haven't already. Just click
this link! :)
{5} Oh yeah, and while we're on the subject of Baby B's nursery, can we talk about how we have absolutely nothing done with it yet! *insert scared/crying/freak out face here* We still have SO much to do in the house/room before she gets here, it's not even funny. A few of the major things....re-finish all the hardwood floors in the living room, hallway, and nursery, paint the entire house (living room, kitchen, hallway, nursery), buy a crib/dresser...and the list goes on and on! Seriously, I'm really starting to freak out here. We only have 3 more months until Lil Miss makes her grand appearance!! If we don't get our butts in gear soon, she'll have a closet full of clothes and a glider/ottoman for me to nurse her on....and that's it. Granted, we still have a baby shower look forward to, and hopefully we'll get some of the big stuff that we need then...but we also need floors and a painted room before we start putting anything in there! *deep breaths, deep breaths* Am I just being crazy/hormonal for feeling so overwhelmed and freaked out lately?? Or are we cutting it just a liiiittle close with getting everything ready?? I feel like people that I know that are due after me already have their nurseries almost completely set and ready to go! That's what's scaring me.
{6} Another thing that's scaring me? I've been having a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions today. Like, more than I've ever had in a 12 hour period before. They don't hurt or anything...they're just much more frequent today and I'm really noticing them. Is this normal? I really hope it's just a fluke and tomorrow they stop.
{7} Only 6 more days until I can finally get my new cell phone!! (Stupid Verizon wouldn't let me upgrade 2 weeks early...boooo!) I absolutely HATE my Blackberry now...I honestly can't believe I've been paying an extra $30 a month for online access when it doesn't even work 75% of the time. I cannot wait to kick it to the curb! So, hopefully in about a week or so, I will be the proud owner of a brand new Samsung Fascinate!
