Party Planning Committee...

If you ever watched The Office you know about the "Party Planning Committee", which has new leadership this season. :) Anyways, as I plan Elijah's Fouth Birthday Party bash this weekend, I wish I had a party planning commitee. Planning a party at a park location for 12 kids and a handful of parents can be stressful. Why did Phyllis want to take charge again....

Dream a Little Dream....

I have been having the weirdest dreams possible in the last few weeks of my pregnancy. Before I got to be each night I have to brace myself for the night to come and what suprises my dreams hold in store. Never before have I had so many dreams in such a short period of time and so vivid I can recall most of them. The thing that really stinks though is that most of them are stressful or just crazy and I am upset when I wake up... I think it may be the hormones and stress of the economy and life changes lately, but I wish I could avoid these dreams.

Am I the only one to have weird pregnancy dreams? Has anyone else experienced them?...

Aww... Fall.... Okay, Not so much....

I walked out the door yesterday morning to a nice chilly breeze and took in a deep breath. Just to remind myself that the 65 degree coolness I was experiencing may be our only taste of fall. Bummer. It is times like these I wish we were in North Carolina or Virginia or Vermont.... Sigh...Back to 85 degree high reality.

On more exciting and cheerful news... The Tampa Rays are going to the World Series. Not many in this neck of the woods have been Rays fans over the years as they sat at the bottom of the league and lost almost every game, but times have changed and Tampa now has Rays fever. Everyone who never even cared about baseball is watching these games and boy are they exciting. I entered a contest to win WS tickets but likely we will watch the games from home and cheer on our favorite hometown underdogs... GO RAYS!!!!

I was tagged....

By my dear old high school friend Becky, but due to my late sleepiness and lack of motivation, I have not done anything about it yet.

So here it goes:

1. When I am pregnant I hate small talk. really. I know it is weird but I like to retreat into my shell for 9 months and hibernate.

2. I no longer like the smell or taste of coffee. Seeing as I was an advid Starbucks coffee morning person just three weeks ago.

3. I have becoming more of an introvert since I became a mom. I like to keep things within our little family.

4. I fear what is going to become of our economy if Obama becomes president.

5. I act really crazy with my husband. It is really fun having someone you live with understand you so much.

6. I fear parenting and making sure my little boy becomes a man of God. It is such an awesome responsibility God has given us. I will try to make the best of it!

7. I am still not a morning person... and as I get older I am not sure I ever will be. Has anyone ever seen a ninety year old woman who likes to sleep in every day? That will be me, so stayed tuned.

Soooo pregnant....

So.....
I am almost eight weeks pregnant according to my pregnancy countdown clock I got for my myspace page last night! I thought I was only 5 or 6 weeks but no more like 7.75! Wow, I can't believe we are having another baby! I am thrilled but over the last few weeks I have experienced nausea and dizziness at almost any time of day, ranging from 8 in the morning to 7 at night. Blah! On better news, I have quickly broken my long beloved coffee addiction as the first day I realized I was pregnant two weeks ago, coffee sounded like the least thing I wanted to drink. Hurray! No addiction classes for this girl! Now I am strictly a sprite and water gal. Period. The cravings have already begun- one day i crave ham and cheese sandwiches, the next chicken noodle soup, the next Firehouse Subs. I never was one to care what I particularly at times but now I have gotten picky!
The challenge I am facing this week is picking a new doctor. My old doctor who delivered Elijah was horrible and that in itself is a whole blog post. So know I am on the quest for a new doctor, that takes our insurance and delivers at a particular hospital. It is like the quest for the holy grail these days. I am sure God will lead us into the best hands.
Another thing that has been on my mind is my delivery method for this baby, since Elijah was an emergency C-section due to being breech, do I still want a C-section or opt for a riskier V-back. Hmm... all these things run through my head all the time now!
I will keep you updated as my belly grows as do my moods and cravings....
