For being (almost) 36 weeks pregnant, I feel really good. I picked up a head cold from my dear mama, but other than that, I'm feeling really good! And if this is the ONLY sickness I've had all pregnancy (aside from morning sickness), I'm doing really well!!
The weather has turned warmer (Thank God!). I never really considered myself to become depressed during different seasons, but I think I was starting to. I hated having to cancel all my fun plans due to snow. I hated having to worry about getting to work because the roads were covered with snow.
But! It's over...for now! YAY!
I'm rejoicing today with the front door open, the heater is off...and I'm considering opening the windows...
On other news...
My grandmother and I went to Target this morning to get my stroller.
They didn't have it in the store. They said they "should" get it in, but are unsure if/when it will come in. They suggested going to Charlottesville......so that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to go to Charlottesville and get the one I really want...from Babies R Us. :o)
What is funny is that this is only the 10th time it has happened...
My crib, maybe twice. My changing table, twice; stroller, twice; carseat, three times; rocking chair, twice!
ish.
The last few months have gone something along those lines.
::sigh::
I can't help BUT laugh every time I hear something I registered for is going to be discontinued or something...
But it's been a good morning despite that! My grandmother and I walked around target while she did her shopping, and she had my niece with her b/c she wasn't feeling well, so I got to see her for a little bit today.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the spring like weather!

Baby Update!
I suppose it's been a while since I posted any updates on baby and our progress....
So:
As of last Friday, I was 34 weeks. The doctor says he's looking a little big and could come early, but at my next appointment we'll do another ultrasound to figure out his size and everything.
The nursery is coming along! My mom and I went to Charlottesville to get a crib from Babies R Us, but they didn't have any in stock that we liked, so we drove to Richmond. On our way to Babies R Us, we stopped at Target thinking they would have more than what we have here. Sure enough, there was a Graco crib that I hadn't seen at the Target in Harrisonburg. We bought it and came home! Later we went to the Target in town to get the mattress, and sure enough, there was the crib!
Jacob and his mom worked hard on cleaning out the nursery and making room for the crib, and it looks amazing! There was so much junk in there that I wasn't sure what it was going to look like, but it looks great!
I'm still working, and will probably work right up until he comes. I'm debating on taking a vacation week the week of my due date, if he hasn't come by then, just to give me some extra time, but I'm not going to be getting paid maternity leave anymore. It's disappointing, because of all the work I did to try to make sure I got it, but it happens, and there's nothing I can do about it now. And I'm not going to wear myself out trying to get my hours up to where they need to be to get maternity pay. I can barely do all the hours I'm doing now, and the housework, so, working 40 hours the next several weeks is out of the question.
At the appointment today, the doctor came in and said everything looks fine!
