A Work In Progress

This weekend we went to The Baby Show. It was a tad overwhelming. However we did find an awesome baby monitor - which has a video camera!  And the video has night vision!!!!! OMG!!! We had a look at a few prams and I was asked if I was planning on jogging with the baby. Oh did I laugh. While I do expect I will go through changes in becoming a Mum, I seriously doubt that those changes will result in me suddenly being inspired to move at anything other than a walk. But God bless the lady for being optimistic.

......who think the world will continue to revolve around them once baby comes.

Today I found out the flavour of my baby. I also found out that baby is growing well and I am so relieved that things are progressing the way they should. I can't reveal the sex just yet, need to tell the father first! But the biggest emotion I am feeling right now, is not related to whether baby is a boy or a girl, and is totally centred on the fact that we are approaching 20 weeks and things are going well. I'm going to finally give myself permission to start decorating baby's room and start getting excited about what lies ahead. I am so happy.

From this moment forward, I plan on blaming all incidents of forgetfulness and/or general stupidity on "baby brain". You have been warned.

I've just eaten about 20 pickles. Fortunately not with ice cream.

Need to go shopping for maternity clothes.

Some days, like yesterday, things are stressful. You get all wound up and end up giving yourself a headache. On those days I need to remember what is important. So this is what I have in my room to remind me.
