From Unreal to Real

I have I told you lately that I {we} are having a baby??  I think I forgot to tell myself, because until we saw this on Monday, I think I didn't believe it, and it wasn't even close to real.


But now it seems that ever since I saw that cute little profile it's made it more real.  And I guess finding out that we are having a BOY {I still don't think I'm ready for another Battle Boy in my life} makes it that much MORE of a reality.

I have now taken to Google and have been getting ideas to decorate the baby's room -- that once was an office that never got finished.  I like to think that I purposefully didn't finish it, because deep down inside I just KNEW that it was for something bigger and better.  {I love it when I'm right} 

I know Baby Boy Battle doesn't come for another 5 months, but I can't help getting started.  I say that now, but I just know that soon it will be 2 months until the big day and nothing will have been done.  Because let's face it, I still have no energy and somehow fell like I run a marathon EVERYDAY.  When in fact, I sit at my desk all day at work and then go home and sit on my couch all night.  {I'm anxiously waiting for that nesting thing to kick in}

Speaking of kicking...when does that start??  I know I've seen the baby, and heard the heartbeat, and know the sex, but let's feel some action already.  I really just want this to start, especially seeing some kicks on the outside, so that Husbo can share in the fun.  I don't think it's fair that he didn't get to throw up with me for 11 weeks, or feel fat and bloated, or feel like he hasn't slept in weeks {when in fact he got 10 hours of sleep the night before} or had to get up in the middle of the night to pee 5 times...you get the point.  It would just be nice to feel something in there for once.  

I'm sure I'll keep you updated.  And apologize for this turning into a pregnancy blog.  Because that's what it is going to be for the next 5 months.  Because that is the only exciting think going on in my life.  But to be honest, that's about the only excitement I can take. 

I'm off to find a place to sneak off to at work so that I can take a nap. 

Have a happy Thursday.

  2. How fun! It is so exciting to have a little one. I started feeling my babies around week 16, so you should start feeling little bums every now and then. Congrats girl!
