valentines day 2011

so many things happen all the time. i thought i would be more inclined to write about it. i guess the hardest part is finding the time and energy (baby jackie sucks the life out of me these days). things that happened:

moniques birthday
paige came to visit
slumber party with pb and rena boo
prepping and painting the nursery (at one point mom, hubs, paige and i all painting one small room)
free handed waves
baby shower (im guessing we had 50+ guests??) =amazing amount of love for baby jackson and us.
visiting g'ma in the hospital instead of going to work (she's out now, thankfully)
labor and delivery tour of hayward kaiser
hitting 8 months
our last prepared child birth class
building a 'shed' ie workshop for meee in 2 weeks almost complete
assembling the first piece of baby furniture
emilys birthday
monique taking me to vals, the marina and lake chabot before i leave
making valentines and cupcakes before making thank you cards
heart shaped chocolate chip cookies
having a hard time digesting food with the stomach the size of a yogurt container
looking forward to march and not work for 2 weeks before jack arrives (hopefully)
counting down days rather than months and weeks
getting bigger everyday and feeling it
backaches, rolling to get off the bed
taking a lot of baths, with oils or bubbles or salts
feeling his bones hardening, pressing against my side, or ribs, which ever way he feels like rolling that day
pregnant.
