Stream of Consciousness

None of the hats I have made for Annie fit very well and I think that its the yarn I was using. I have a bag of stuff that Joe's mom let me use and I just think its not stretchy enough because the hat looks like it could fit me and then it barely stays on her head!

I have felt very unhealthy throughout this pregnancy and can't wait till I can get back into shape and loose tons of weight. However I am not helping myself at all with all of the crap that I have been eating lately. Yesterday I made chocolate chip cookie dough with the excuse that I have people coming over...friday :o) I really just wanted the dough and I have been snacking on it for two days now. I don't plan on baking the cookies anytime soon either so we will see if there are any cookies to be had on friday :o)
To contradict the beginning of the last thought, I have felt really good the past few days! Although I am still uncomfortable in the evening after I have been doing things all day long I feel a big relief from her turning to head down and I have another AFI on friday when I go to my OB and will not be surprised to find if my fluid levels have dropped. I just don't feel like my belly begins at my chin anymore.

However much I have been saying that I am ready to be done with this pregnancy that feeling has changed in the past week and it might have something to do with the fact that her room is still a mess of boxes and that is 100 times better than it looked 2 days ago. I realized that if I go into labor now that not only do I not have a bag packed but I don't even know which box those important things are that I am going to need like my nursing bras etc... So maybe reality has changed my mind or maybe its that I feel a little better either way I am cautiously thinking that its not going to happen any time soon.
In preparation I got out all of my premie and 0-3 month clothes from Annie and realized that you all will have to put up with my child only wearing onesies this summer because all of Annies stuff is Flannel and Fleece! I dont really have any summer stuff!

I am starting to desire to hang things on the walls now that I have been in the house for a few weeks, unfortunately I have to wait for my husband to do those things. The nice part about my hubby is that he likes to have things to keep him busy although I don't know that he wants to have a power tool in his hand 24/7 but who knows maybe he does.
Yesterday our new mini blinds arrived and I didn't call him at work to let him know, thinking that because he had softball he wouldn't want to hang them after he played anyway. When he got home he decided to hang one in our room pre-drilling and screwing them in by hand "just to see if it fit"! He ended up doing 4 more by hand and this was after his softball game in which his arm and hand always hurt after because he plays too hard. The man is a freak... but I love him :o)

Oh, Katie! I read this post after I saw on Facebook that you've gone into LABOR!! When I read it, I realized you totally sounded like someone about to go into labor any minute with your here-and-there thoughts, your desire to stay pregnant but also to not be pregnant anymore. I am so happy for you!!! Can't wait to hear all about your adventures.
