I couldn't think of a title for this entry so... there ya go! LOL My brain is too fried for all that. ;) Plus I've developed a wonderful head cold to help me with the whole "being uncomfortable" package. Thankfully, it's just mild but enough to make you feel miserable all day, ya know?
Dennis took leave all this week so we could manage to get the house in order for our incoming guests (ref. several posts ago that we'll be hosting some Missionaries for Thanksgiving holiday). Also getting the baby's stuff all set up - everything is still in boxes LOL. Unfortunately, so far we've only managed to make it to the commissary. LOL Oh! But I did finally get my hospital bag packed. Gosh! but I cant wait for the day I'll need that. These next 4 (or more *sob*) weeks are going to be torture. (as I glare at the clock, swearing I just saw the hand go backwards)
Of course, I'm conflicted because I don't know why I would want this pregnancy to hurry up and be over. No more just getting in the car and going somewhere... no more sleep (pfft, like I get any now)... no more long showers and silent house... what am I thinking?! LOL BUT then again, once baby is here, it wont take me 5 mins to get from the basement to the top floor of our house... I can sit in a chair for more than 5mins without my right (yes, only my right) foot swelling up like a balloon... and I can reach down and pick up what I've dropped on the floor. Not to mention the sweet baby that will be here to hold! :) Dennis snickered at me the other night because I dropped a notebook on the floor and after attempting and failing miserably at picking it up, I gave up and said "aww forget it, it can stay there!" LOL (yes, he did come and pick it up for me :) of course he did)
I wanted to say thank you to you guys leaving comments. I don't know how to respond to those other than writing it here (or sending personal emails) but please know that I LOVE reading your comments! It's too funny about 140bpm heart rate being the cut off for either boy or girl (>140 a girl, <140 a boy). So typical!! LOL That's ok! I like surprises. I'll just have to listen very closely for the words mädchen (girl) or junge (boy) on delivery day! LOL
Well, there was more I wanted to say but the fried brain attacks again. I'm off to shove the kiddos in bed and search a nice hot cup of apple cider! Good night!

Hi Amy...its Connie, one of Dennis' friends from his football leagues! Bless you for turning your home inside-out and entertaining at Thanksgiving when you are just weeks away from delivery...it will be a holiday you will all remember! Here's hoping that some nice hot showers to clear your sinuses and some tea to help you relax knocks that head cold out before the crowd arrives.
First of all, TAG ( read my blog to find out)
Second of all, at least you don't have to make Thanksgiving dinner days after giving birth ( like I did for Katey and Sophie) Poor Amy , I remember all too well what it is like to not be able to MOVE . Seriously, you look good!! ( you know if you have a boy I am gonna be out a whole lotta money, lol)
Again, I have to say I just love this blog!! You are a great writer and I enjoy all the "news" and stories. Miss you all a lot!! Pamper yourself and get better for your company. It will be a GREAT experience!
