Moving right along :)

Boy, Girl, Boy, Girl- what will baby be?  Only a few more days before we can give our little baby a first name!  Who's excited?  This mommie to be!  I can't hardly wait for Monday morning or Monday evening...we are debating on having a gender reveal cake and finding out with our family at dinner that night.  Question is if either one of us can wait until that night.  I have only had three people predict it is a boy and everyone else believes it is a girl.  I am going with boy! Either way I don't care, I just want a HAPPY baby.  Johnathon on the other hand is probably going to have a mini break down if they tell us it is going to be a girl, haha.  Good thing for him if it is a girl, I told him we could discuss having another child one day but if it is a boy this is it.  I don't care what we have but he really wants to have a boy, so if we don't manage to get our way first time around I may reconsider having another baby one of these days.

The weeks are flying by, I feel like I just found out I was pregnant.  The bloating is almost completely gone.  Still can't eat too much at one time but I have learned to just eat little amounts throughout the day.  I eat Mexican food like it is my job.  No joke, I have eaten Mexican 3 times in the last 7 days.  I could just drink the queso dip and salsa.  Speaking of drink, if you could get drunk off of gatorade, I would be drunk all day, everyday.  I love gatorade and keep a bottle in my hand most of the day.  Pickles...no one ever lied when they said you will crave pickles while pregnant.  Problem is, I only like my papa's homemade pickles and we are out :( I have been wanting one so bad.  Last night I made a trip to the grocery store to buy pickles but they did nothing for me.  I guess I will have to wait on papa to make me some more.

Sleeping is going well, too well.  All I want to do is sleep, still.  I haven't mentioned this before but ever since I became pregnant I have been having CRAZY dreams.  It was actually one of the first signs that I was pregnant.  Before, I rarely dreamed.  Now, I have 3 or 4 crazy dreams a night.  I am not complaining though, they are really good, like a good movie.  It makes me so mad when I wake up and didn't find out what happened.

I went to get my blood work done yesterday, which I completely forgot about until the other day.  It didn't go so well...after giving 6 vials I fainted.  But I expected it, anytime I have to give more than one or two vials I always pass out.  I don't know why.  I don't have a problem with needles or blood.  I have stuck many, many people so that isn't an issue.  I am going to ask my doctor about it Monday.

The only other issue I have been having is pressure on my bladder.  I can only imagine how it is going to be when I get further along because right now it is terrible.  Other than that, physically I am doing great!

The last week being around some of my friends with their kids and keeping my nephew I have observed a few things that I am not sure that I am looking forward to.  I feel like I will never be able to eat a meal in peace again, whether is be in a restaurant or at home.  You can't eat anything without my nephew, Auden, in my face going mmmm mmmm and then demanding some of what you are eating.  And one bite is never enough, as soon as he swallows the cycle repeats.  When I am keeping him and no one is home with me, I never get a break.  I even have to take him to the bathroom with me to take a bath and he stands at the side of the tub wanting to get in.  Once he gets older I won't do this anymore but right now he doesn't understand.  I will never have a conversation without having to get up and do something for my child or to get on to them for eating out the dog bowl or pulling on the blinds.  I can tell I am not a parent yet because my friends and sister can tune their children out if they just keep on and on, me?  it drives me insane.  However, everyone tells me that being a parent is worth all this.  We will see.  Right now, I am thanking God for grandparents and date nights!

I am so excited to see our baby again, Monday!

Next week by this time we will hopefully know whether we are having a boy or girl and we can start spending lots of money on cute little baby things!  What's your predication?
