Yesterday two of my sweetest & thoughtful friends threw a girlfriend's baby shower for me. The theme was the cutest, a Mommy & Me Tea Party. So not only were my gal pals there but all of #1's girly friends too. We had such a great time. The most memorable part of the afternoon, aside from all the tasty little delectibles, fun games & generous gifts, was the activity they planned for everyone ... each person created a scrapbook page for H.A. #3's baby album. How awesome! The pages everyone made are fantastic, far better than I would ever do. So needless to say #3's album is the best one yet & he/she isn't even born yet.
So after the shower I was looking at the pictures -- OMG I am HUGE! And I still have 9 weeks to go so I'm only going to get bigger?!? Ugh, I hope that this is fat because if this means I'm going to deliver a 9 pound baby you'd better start wishing this woman lots of luck.
And it is official, I am definately nesting. I looked back at my other prego journals & I did start this around 30 weeks the two times before. Not only do I have my hospital bag already packed but I spent over $500 this past week on groceries!! Our extra freezer is stock piled as well as every square inch of the kitchen cabinets. The sad reality is that all this food will more than likely be eaten within the next 9 weeks so what's the point? Why do prego women do crazy things like this anyway? Why the need to disinfect every nook & cranny of our living space before a baby is born, in places where a newborn would never be in the first place, like under the stove & fridge?? It's really insane when you think about it, and the sense that it all has to be done now.
