I have been feeling much better lately. Mood wise, that is. Physically I feel like crap, but I will discontinue being a host for this thing in my body in less than a month so that will be good. Then I'll know the true meaning of 'feeling like crap' with the lack of sleep, sore boobs from having the thing in me now OUT of me still sucking the life from me, and the healing stitches in places that should never have scissors used on it. Hm.. So much for that good mood...
Today has been good since I have actually been productive. I change the sheets on my bed, cleaned the kitchen, did some laundry, played with Cody, made lunch, and now Cody is actually taking a nap. I think he is going through a growth spurt. He has been sleeping through the night for about a week straight now AND taking naps! It's so great. I'm actually getting excited to meet this baby and find out the gender. I have bought one girl outfit just in case it's a girl and I need to go through Cody's newborn size bin of clothes to pick out some cute things in case it's a boy. I think I'd better buy another girl outfit or 2 though. I won't feel much like shopping afterwards.
Yesterday Brian and I went to get a carseat at USA Baby but certain days of the week they close at 5:30PM and certain days they close at 8:00PM. Unfortunately we went on a day they closed at 5:30 and got there at 5:34PM. Brian was furious they close at such a ridiculously early time. If they didn't have such a big selection we would have gone somewhere else, but I want one of the snugride Graco ones they have. We are going back tomorrow. Tonight is kereoke for the combined YM/YW. That will be fun to watch. I'd better not try to sing. Last time I tried singing to Cody to try to get him to calm down when he wasn't sleepy (and should have been sleepy) he said "No Mom!" and held his little hand up to my face. When I didn't stop he said it again but this time shaking his hand and head while saying "NO MOM!" When I continued singing he just plugged his ears. I think I should try out for American Idol. Speaking of American Idol, Cody is quite the little singer himself. When we're in the car and the radio is on, he'll add a "YAAaaa" to the end of any song and make his voice try to go wavy. I love it. Or he'll repeat the last word of the song. I'd better be careful with what I listen to.
Freaking cats. I just chased a cat out of the driveway. There are about 6 cats that practically live in our yard. They are in heat right now and SO loud. They wake me up in the middle of the night. It's gross. I can't even let Cody play in the back yard because there is cat poop about every 2 feet.
What was I talking about? Oh well. Doesn't matter. I should get dinner ready if I plan on getting it in the slow cooker and cooking before it's ACTUALLY dinner time, seeing as it will take 3 to 4 hours to cook and it's already 2:00pm. Wish me luck with this chicken and dumplings that I have never tried making before!
