JARRED AND I MET IN NOVEMBER 2002 WHEN JARRED JUST MOVED TO OC FROM LA. ONE "GIRLS NIGHT OUT" TURNED INTO “GIRLS NIGHT OUT + JARRED” (lucky for him). UNEXPECTEDLY, WE WERE ATTACHED THE REST OF THE EVENING. I KNEW FROM THAT FIRST NIGHT HE WAS THE ONE! AFTER OUR FIRST DATE 2 WEEKS LATER, WE HAVE BEEN INSEPARABLE. NOW MARRIED WITH 2 BEAUTIFUL KIDS, WE ARE ENJOYING THE NEXT CHAPTER IN OUR LIVES.

7 weeks left!!

3rd Trimester Blues:
I will say that I am finally feeling the 3rd trimester blues!
-bathroom runs 20x a day
-major pressure in my lower muscles. Especially areas I didn't think I had muscles at.
-lost all "finesse" getting up from a bed or couch.
-fatigued all over again.

SO CHECK OUT MY "VERY FIRST" FLAT SHOES! I've never owned a pair of flat shoes unless they were tennis shoes or flip flops! I know it sounds dramatic, but if you know me, I am always in heals!

PREPARATION:
I made a checklist because I can have this baby any day so I want to be prepared.
-I assigned a list of people to call when I'm in labor
-I have all my bags packed in case I need to run to the hospital
-I washed the baby clothes
-I ordered the diaper service and washed bottles
-"and I even" made an appt with the California Highway Patrol to make sure I install my car seat properly.
There are a few things left, but I am almost done! I just want to be able to enjoy the last few weeks of my pregnancy and not feel stressed when the baby comes.

UH OH, the baby:
It dawned on me that I should probably read up on parenting skills. The only books I've read were regarding pregnancy. I bought a book this weekend on "what to expect the first year". This will help me in addition to various classes Jarred and I will be attending the next 3 weeks. Times up with "all about me attitude". I have turned into mama mode and I am sooo excited to meet our little gal/guy.
