25 weeks!

I'm 25 weeks and 2 days today! Still feeling pretty good. As my mom said I haven't had a bad day yet. Nights on the other hand are a little more uncomfortable. I can't get situated. I'm paranoid about sleeping only on my side (preferably left, of course). I got comfortable last night but then woke up with a cramp in my arm from where I was hugged up on my pillow too hard. TOO HARD! Who grips the crap out of their pillow?? Anyway, I only wake up once a night so that's good. I feel bad for the pregnant mamas that are peeing 2 or 3 times a night. I don't think I could handle it.

I've begun working on the baby's room. I have no idea what to do with extra blankets, linens, pillows, etc. And they're not baby blankets. They're queen/king size comforters, probably 4 regular size pillows and I have no place to put them. Any ideas?

I have been clearing out a lot of acumilated crap that I've collected over the years. I think I've divided it up into a handfull of catagories. Including S and my relationship, BF, high school and college. I feel pretty good about that. I just want to get something to put the stuff in besides shoe boxes. I like the paper storage boxes at Ikea. They look good and would make my collection of junk look more unified.

Back to the baby. We have a name! I love it but kinda scared because I don't want to get too attached. I still feel a little distant from him too. I think once we do the 4d I'll feel different. You know, once I can see his little face. I did think of him yesterday when I was driving home. I was looking in my rearview mirror and imagined what it would be like to have him sitting in his rear facing car seat. It made me feel like I was ready for what's to come. S and I are going to register this weekend since my friends are throwing me a shower next month. I hope the store gives us a list to help newbies out! Since, we have no idea what to register for. I know that we'll register for the travel system and some bottles. But really, what are people going to be willing to buy? Baby stuff is pretty expensive! I also want to register for a breast pump which is also super expensive. I'm hoping DH's aunts will get together and buy a big item. That would be awesome!

We have the glucose test at the end of the month. We ordered the furniture. Yea! Room is coming together. I think we're somewhat on track.. right?

Well, got to get back to work. Blah..
