I was going to blog but we’re headed out to the door to Randy’s parent’s house for the day so I’ll leave you with 2 pictures.

As the title says, Gracie Lynn Beverly Rumble was born at 9:10pm on 9/28/2009. We’ll see how typing this up goes. Pic heavy.

So over this. 40 weeks

So over this. 40 weeks

Sep 20

I look like crap and feel like it too. Today marks 40 weeks and little Miss. Gracie is showing no signs of appearing. She’s still quite high up it feels and there have been no changes in the TMI department. I’ve been having mild cramping but that is nothing new. Tomorrow I have a doc appointment at 1:45 where he’ll do my first cervical check at 40w1d. He hasn’t mentioned anything about inductions which I’m glad b/c I don’t want a doc pressuring me into anything. I’m just hoping that there has been SOME progress.

I’m sick of not being able to lay down without pain. I’m sick of my legs going numb in bed. I’m sick of not being able to sleep for an hour even without being uncomfortable. I’m sick of refusing my husband’s sexual advances because it’s not enjoyable for me but most of all?

I’M SICK OF THE FUCKING TEXT MESSAGES OF PEOPLE ASKING IF I’M IN LABOR YET. I swear I get like 5 a day. It’s SO FUCKING ANNOYING. You will KNOW when I am in labor because I will tell you. Until then, back.the.fuck.off. I’d probably be more patient if I wasn’t getting hassled every single day about it. I’m ready to throw my phone out the window or leave it off but then knowing my luck someone would show up at my door because my phone went to voicemail. Oh the horror. My MIL accused me of being moody earlier. I told her no I’m just fucking cranky outright. There’s no mood swing about it.

Surprisingly, I haven’t taken my rage out on anybody and now I’m going to go work on ChaCha for a bit and then maybe consider attempting a nap. We’ll see.

Who is cuter?

Both my boys appear to be quite tired tonight. I can’t determine which one I find cuter. Pardon the cell phone pics, I’m too lazy to get the camera out of my hospital bag.

Baby shower turnout

Baby shower turnout

Sep 14

Well today was the baby shower and it went very well. Randy’s mom did the organizing along with his sister Heather. The food was good, family on both sides were there, and it was overall a great time. Both of our families have been so supportive and helpful with everything related to Gracie and I appreciate it more than any of them know I think. I got a ton of clothes, bath items, a bath tub, a bassinet, a boppy pillow, a crib (have to pick up from my aunt), a scrapbook, a dresser from my mom, and a personalized changing table from Randy’s dad that has Gracie’s name carved into it and the wood re-finished. It was my big surprise gift that I wasn’t allowed to know about or see until I got home because Randy and his dad dropped it off for me. I was so surprised and I LOVE it. I apologize for the poor quality pictures but I took them with my phone and am too lazy to get my camera and then upload/resize blah blah. So here is the bassinet and changing table.

I may be forgetting a few gifts since I’m so tired and overwhelmed by all the stuff I have to organize/put away but everything will get put to use. We also got an antennae because Randy and I are too cheap to pay for satellite/cable and I like my locals. (Football anyone?) Right now I’m doing some ChaCha while curled up with Colby trying to earn the last few dollars before the payoff cutoff at midnight tomorrow. We use that for rent and make up the difference with Randy’s income. This month I slacked due to the wedding and overall feeling like poo but I’ve made about 70% which is a lot better than 0 we both agree.

Home tour – picture heavy

Home tour – picture heavy

Sep 04

I was going to blog about annoying adult things like cars breaking and financial annoyances but I figured I’d do something else. I decided to take y’all on a tour of my apartment. Be warned that I suck at decorating and do not do it and this is probably as clean as it gets. Colby also demanded that he be a part of the tour so he pops in every now and then to give us notice that he’s alive.
