Hey Hey! It's December!

Man, I'm not going to remember a thing with this baby -- I never post!

Dec 1 -- almost done with work! today, tomorrow and then the next week and donzo! until Feb 20th! Woo! Someone at work asked me if I was all ready or if I still needed stuff. So that got me thinking -- I'm ok in the equipment department. We have the crib, the changing table, the rocker, the swing, the bouncer -- all from Ryan still, so that's not a problem. The room is sparsely decorated, but I'm sort of waiting for my week off to do that part -- it's hard to do work in the evenings at this point. I also have a TON of sewing to do that week off too.

But, I went through clothes and you know...I don't really have a lot of newborn/3 month regular clothes for her. Sleepers -- I'm pretty ok on. I could always use more, but I can get by on what I have. It was very weird. Like, I haven't really bought anything, b/c people where telling me that they wanted to shop, which is fine, and I was sort of waiting until she's here to see how big she is. But, frankly, I make small kids. I think it has been forgotten that Ryan was 6 pounds at birth and was in the newborn size FOREVER. Like he followed the size charts straight on. 0-3 months was newborn, 3-6 months was 3 month, etc etc. I'm not expecting anything less from this kiddo. So, basically, I'm worried about having enough clothes for her. But, since family will be in town for the holidays, I'm not super worried about getting more either. It was just sort of weird and people gifted me a lot of bigger sizes. Which is great. But, I won't be using them until March or later. I need some clothes for now, which I didn't realize until I actually went through my stuff.

I'm trying to get my repeat C scheduled for Monday, Dec 19th, which they will hopefully do this upcoming week and tell me at my next appt (which is Dec 8) -- I'm down to the weekly ones now! I'm going to ask that they schedule it this week and let me know at the next appt, so I can get everything with someone to watch Ryan and figure that jazz out with a week's notice, instead of like 3 days. I think that my Mom will probably be watching him that Monday -- if we are following the same schedule we have been this fall/winter, but we shall see.

That's the low down. Ready to be done, but not all at the same time. Very strange. This is in all likelyhood the last time I will ever be pregnant. I feel like I didn't get to enjoy it. Between nausea, dehydration, weird contractions, etc and just being tired ALL THE TIME, I didn't ever have a day where I really liked it. This one was tough. I think that I like being pregnant with the boys better than the girls. Ryan was a breeze. :)
