I wouldn’t call it nesting..

but I’m still highly motivated to get things done before this baby is born. We’re about 80% done with Jada’s new room. Today D should be installing the new blinds and painting the door and frame. That will conclude the painting. I still want to paint the inside of the closet, tho, but I could really do that myself in one evening after i get all the junk out of it (which won’t be until after everything else is done)

Today I’m going to try to make it to miami carpet and tile to see about getting carpeting installed in that room this week. After that, then we move all the furniture back in. THAT’S going to be a releif because the house is such a mess right now from all the clutter from that room. I ordered curtains and a rod last night too. I can’t wait for that to arrive. Pretty soon we’ll be done with that room, J will be moved into it, and I’ll be able to start pulling out and washing all of J’s old clothes for the baby. yay! I still want to do things like install a new closet system and install shelving up one wall for toys. she’s got a LOT of toys..

So my 6 week plan is going well. :-D I GOTTA stick to the plan cuz there is just so much on it.

In other news, I went to my OB appt. yesterday and everything is great. Doc said baby was head down but I already knew that. From now on I go every other week for checkups. then soon it will be every week. But the highlight of the visit was finding out my weight. A WHOPPING 192 lbs! When the nurse was done taking my weight and went back to her table to write it down, I just stood there staring at the little weights.. I said “what?! I don’t weight that much!!” She said “you don’t?” I fiddled with the weight a little to see if it was just stuck or something LOL!! but it wasn’t. So I just stepped off and said “well, i guess i do”. the other woman waiting there started laughing .. she tried to give me pep talk that a healthy baby is the only important thing. Yeah. I agree with her but … 192?? CHRIST!

This means I’m definitely going to be hitting and passing the 200 lbs mark before this is all over. With J, I only made it to about 195 and I beleive that was at 37 weeks preggo. she was born only one week later.

But anyways, I’m not REALLY concerned with my weight. Sure I was shocked but don’t really care. I’ll worry about losing it afterwards.. I’ll do what I can after the baby is born but I don’t want to go too agressive because I don’t want to hurt my milk supply. I will only really worry after I’m done breastfeeding because you do tend to gain weight when you’re done with that (body no longer has to burn cals to make milk…)

    Hey Tania, I don’t know whether you saw my post in my journal or not, but I’ve switched over to … I’ve been using that one since mid-december, and I just realized that you hadn’t posted in a long while, and I just realized that it was because you hadn’t friended the new journal! hehe.
