and the clock keeps ticking

its been a while since i last wrote. lots of lil updates.

first off, i'm now at 21 weeks. i have a hard poochi belly that contains my unborn, soccer star son. :) he's all about kicking me. really. and i've been informed that heart burn indicates a full head of hair, so our kid should have a freaking afro. hahah.

so i've now talked to even my grandma about the baby. she was actually pissed at me that she wasn't the second person to know! my religious grandmother is thrilled that i'm pregnant and happy. i couldn't have gotten better news :) she was asking me about things i needed. and i realized. i had never thought about stuff like this?!

i was never the little girl to dream of a big house, lots of kids and etc etc... i was more a penthouse apt in the city type of dreamer :) however, did you know there is so much stuff you need?????

a high chair? is that required? and why are mom and grandma both offering to get one?
a carseat, but wait it has to match the car interior and become a carrier when you take it out.
a stroller.. shit i forgot about that one
a theme for the nursery and the baby shower...

now that last one. i actually have under control :) DR Seuss. its perfect. no pastels, totally wicked crazy rhyming, awesome toons and cool options to paint the walls. i'm putting toons on the walls. oh yes i am. :) the one fish,two fish; cat in the hat; green eggs and ham; star belly sneeches; etc... lots of stripes, black and white... red blue and yellow. fits us and a kiddo.

my sister is planning the baby shower. i've been just looking online for sources. like when do you hold a shower? who the hell am i inviting. i don't have a lot of girl friends.. only like 2 locally and 6 i talk to online. and they are spread out! all over the nation.. so uh.... guys don't do this kind of stuff. damn. lol

still every day, the clock keeps ticking and the kid gets bigger in my tummy. i feel him moving, i feel him rolling over at night. its so odd to feel so at peace and yet so freaked out at the same time. i never thot i'd be this person, but now that i am, i can't imagine not taking this jump, feeling these things. the clock keeps ticking and i'm looking forward to what it has in store..
