I have now started to waddle when I walk. My feet and legs are so tried from all the added weight that I literally have started to waddle.. and no its not cute. Today marks 28 weeks! The fact that I have 12 more weeks to go of weight gain and general discomfort is a little discouraging. I wish Eleanor was big and healthy enough to come in a few more weeks but I want her to stay in the oven as long as she needs. I did clean the house this weekend. I had a sudden burst of energy and did laundry, cleaned the bathroom and straightened up the kitchen. It felt so good to clean and get things back to "nice" in the house. My sheets are clean and I have clothes to wear to work. I don’t wake up with crap everywhere in my bedroom. It was so nice!
Matthew got his/our last couples gift...we got surround sound system installed in the living room. Michael & Sara came by and helped install it and its really very cool. Its also baby proofed! yah! All the wires are under the floor boards and covered with tubing up the wall. It looks custom installed so that made me happy. We watched Harry Potter 7.2 in blueray and it was very cool! This weekend we hope to watch the super bowl in surround sound! yah!
Today is my glucose screening at 2:30pm. I am so nervous. I don’t mind having to drink the special drink but the blood drawing always bothers me. I hate needles and I hate that whole process.
Yesterday we toured another daycare... Child Care Network...this one wasn't as great as the Goddard Place. Things we didn't like.. babies were on their belly in their cribs. (Hello SIDS laws) they had 10 cribs vs Goddard had only 8 cribs. There were no Latinos, Indians, Asians or whites in ANY of the age rooms. And there was only 1 staff member who wasn't black. I dont' want my child to be the minority. Goddard had such a great mix of races and genders. Then there was the location issue. Its a really bad left hand turn to get into the parking lot. The only "good" thing was it was 30 bucks cheaper than Goddard. Today we tour another daycare after my glucose testing. "The Chester brook Academy". I'm interested in seeing how they stack up. Goddard called to follow up on how we were doing which I thought was very nice. There is so much left to do.. we also have to start interviewing pediatricians because that is something we will need right away.
Onwards!
