Fun Fact Friday

April 23rd, 2010

* I made it to 34 weeks! Hallelujah! I have an appointment with my OB on Monday and I fully expect to be released from bed rest. I’m already allowed to stop taking the anti-contraction meds on Sunday. I guess this means we’ll officially on baby watch. I’ve already told my dad to be waiting for the call to watch Maddie when I go into labor. My bag is packed and we’re as ready as we’ll get. (Which is to say, not at all.)

* Maddie used the potty last night several times and there was much rejoicing in the land. However, after using it once this morning, she’s firmly back in the pro-diaper camp. I know potty-training is one step forward, two steps back and then a jump to the left, but DAYUM! I really wish she’s stop yanking my chain.

* Gerald’s got a work conference to go to in OKC May 5th – 7th. Not only is that my 36th week pregnancy (which is when Maddie was born) but the 8th is both our anniversary and baby shower. Also? He’s going to OKC with his only female employee. So basically, he’s leaving me heavily pregnant and alone with the toddler in order to spend our anniversary weekend away with another woman. If only I were really jealous or even upset… I bet I could get some mileage out of that.

* I’m sort of hoping The Boy is born on my birthday. Or Gerald’s birthday. That would be kinda cool.

* Operation No Shopping is still going very well. I’m extremely proud of myself. It’s not been easy, but I keep reminding myself of all the good that will come of it.

    I wouldn’t be jealous or upset either. But it might be worth faking it!

    Bad timing on the trip. Sheesh. If you have the baby while he’s gone, I bet he’ll bring you back a REALLY big present.

    May 12 is such a lovely day, too. Us May babies ROCK, don’t we?

    I remember my OB saying that Week 34 was the Magic Week for babies! Yay for Baby Watch!
