Work went a little better this week, although they aren't getting the idea that I am getting tired [literally] of opening. Luckily, I was able to switch with a co-worker on Wednesday and I went in to work at 11. It was a refresher, for sure, to be able to sleep. The bright side, is that I possibly will be getting more hours. I am trying to save up for this baby, even though we know he's going to be one spoiled baby.
Friday, I met up with a professor I had in college. It was nice to get to see her. When I told her I was having a boy, she was excited... Especially, since she was able to clear out some of her son's things. We met at Babies R Us and she offered me advice on what to have on my registry and what not to. Before that, she unloaded her car into mine... I feel super special and BEYOND blessed. She handed me a nursing pillow, Boppy, a pump, a payard, and 3 boxes full of clothes and sheets! I was a big weight lifted off my shoulder to see that a pump was suppied to me. I need to buy the tubing and the suction part, but that's not a problem to me. I'm gonna be spending, if I don't get it off my registry, at most $50 as opposed to paying $279 for the pump itself. I am forever grateful for this. We walked around the store and she made her suggestions. All of which I will be taking. I added a bit to my registry and think I might actually be done... Until the next cute thing comes along =) But seriously, I think I am done with it.
After Babies R Us we went to lunch to get my Panera Mac N Cheese fix. Had a nice little discussion on delivery and what not. After lunch, I walked over to Kohl's to get an outfit I had scoped out. Gina gave me a coupon for 20% off and a 10% tax free break. Of course me being the person I am, had to get one for Will too:
The "Mommy's Hunk" onesie will be worn on my birthday <3 I was being selfsih and couldn't help it. I figured Will would love the onesie I picked out for him =)
Apparently, I was scheduled to work on Saturday and didn't know. I was told it was ok, but then they called me in to help. I worked from like 11-4. Came home and caught up on recorded TV. It was a pretty lazy night.
Sunday, I went to watch Will bowl, then went to work with him so he could close. I was researching and messing around on Facebook LOL. I needed to do my mom a favor and get some material for a surpise for Will. He knows he's getting something Raiders because he requested it from my mom, but in Tennessee, they don't have Raiders material. So I went to Jo~Ann's to buy the material. I couldn't find one that she wans, but it turns out, the cotton is sold out, even online. So I was talking on the phone with her and then stumbled across this material:
Is this not THE cutest! I love green and Will loves yellow. I saw both of us in this to share with our son. I asked my mom if I bought this, can Mamaw [her mom] finish it? She wanted to see what it looked like, but either way I was determined to get it! It was $16.99 a yard and man is that a lot, but too cute to not get it. Thankfully, a friend of mine told me about this app the iPhone had where I could get coupons... I had a 50% off one so I got it for $8.50 off! Score! I knew it was a cute find because when I got it cut, several women complemented me on it and were asking what I was going to do with it. I actually don't know. I'd like it to be a heavier blanket, since it looks like a quilt. But I am so in love <3
That ends week 20 and now I begin week 21... Below is my pregnancy survey. Sorry this is a long post, but I was excited! Have a good one you guys!
How far along? 21 weeks today!
Total weight gain/loss: Not too sure. I was told to not have a scale while pregnant. I won't know what I weigh until I see the doc on the 30th of this month.
Maternity clothes? Love my shorts... still fit in shirts.
Stretch marks? Just the ones I already had
Sleep: Still can't complain, I wake up to pee, that's it.
Best moment this week: Adding stuff to the registry... But most of all Will talking to his son. I say that because he thinks that just by laying his head on my belly and rubbing it, he's talking to him with his mind.
Movement: Will actually felt it. I guess I was asleep and he put his arm around me and felt it. I guess he thought he felt it in Vegas, but wasn't too sure... this time he felt it. I did feel it straight for a while on Thursday at work. I was giggling. I called Will to tell him and his response was "See, he's gonna be a momma's boy." Love it. But there's no guarantees! His son may envy him...I hope he does, but I don't mind him being a "Momma's Boy" =)
Food cravings: Panera Mac N Cheese!
Gender: Boy! <3
Labor Signs: Absolutely NOT thank you very much
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? No wedding ring, but my Promise Ring still fits.
What I miss: Sweet Tea. I looked for decaffinated tea and that stuff's expensive! I might have to splurge =)
What I am looking forward to: More STRONGER movements =)
Weekly Wisdom: You don't have to take all advice, it's nice to listen. That's how I feel at least. I am open to all suggestions and I will use them as I see fit.
Milestones: Passing the half way mark!
