Boy! At least that's what she told me at my ultrasound today. The picture she gave me wasn't the greatest, but she seemed to have gotten a better look before he started moving and she took the picture, so I guess I'll go with it! :) I was SO sure it was a girl, but I guess that's why you don't make assumptions :) He seems to be healthy, I'll know for sure at my next doctor's appointment after they read the results.

Random Post

I miss my husband. There, I said it. He's been gone for 3 weeks now, and I'm not even sure he'll be home on Wednesday like he's supposed to. :( I can't even talk to him because they don't have a phone up there. Boo. In other news, tomorrow is my doctor's appt to evaluate me for VBAC! I can't wait! I hope they let me do it. I also hope they do an ultrasound or listen to the heartbeat or something. I haven't got to check on my baby for a while :( Although gender/anatomy check is Wenesday, so I CAN wait if I have to. :) I'm so excited!!!!

Moving Sucks!!!

So this is what I did today:

This is my living room before. My husband brought in all of our crap from moving before he left and dumped it in the living room. Scary, right?!

Ok, so I had been working for a few hours now... Getting there!

And... AFTER! It took me forever, and I am pooped, but I got it done! Yay! Now to finish the rest of the house! It'll be far easier than that was though! lol

Old Wives Tales and Gender

So I thought it would be fun to try and determine my baby's gender through old wives tales, since I figure it out through ultrasound soon. Here are the results:

Baking soda test-girl

Ring test-girl

Heartbeat test-girl

Shape of my belly-not sure

Cravings-boy

And lastly, this baby seems to be "stealing my beauty", so-girl

:) It'll be interesting to see if these are right!

If labor is half as bad as the migraine I had today...

Then I am in big freaking trouble! lol My migraine is finally gone, so I can joke about it now. But that was no joke! I have ad migraines forever, but this was the worst I'd ever had! My eyesight was blurry with little squigglies in it, I felt like someone was hacking at my eyeball with an axe :P It was HORRIBLE! Thank god it's gone!
