Not much news for this week. The baby is pretty active but it is still hard at times for Nick to feel it moving. I am finding it harder and harder to do daily activities. Cleaning the house makes my back hurt very badly. I have started grunting when I bend over. Everyone at work laughs at me. I have been wearing the pair of Crocs that I bought continuously. If I drop something at home and Nick is around I don't even attempt to pick it up. I lay on the couch and think about how I should start doing my pregnancy yoga DVD's so I am a little more limber. I do have more energy than I did at the beginning of the pregnancy so this is a good thing.
I keep having dreams about the baby being here. I am so excited to see what our baby looks like. I am also excited to find out if it is a boy or a girl. I'm so ready to do baths, diaper changing, cuddling, and smelling. I know that sounds weird but babies smell so good.
We are slowly getting ourselves and the house ready for the addition. We have my car, the Grand Prix, up for sale. We have gotten a couple of calls. Hopefully it sells. We are also still trying to find a home for Lexi. Delia and her got into a fight last weekend so they are not allowed to be together period! We had to take Lexi to the vet because Delia bit her ankle and it was bruised and she was limping. She is walking fine on it now. We are also doing some modifications to the nursery/walk-in closet upstairs. Elyse has offered to paint once we have it ready.

Hi guys! Did you see there are different paints out there now that have less of a smell to them? I think from Sherwin Williams, but who knows--maybe other places have them too. Hopefully paint fumes won't get to you much, Abby. I'm sure if you guys keep the windows open while it's being painted you'll be fine, and so will Elyse! :)
What are the themes you guys are going with for the baby nursery and other baby stuff? I hear you're not terribly fond of Winnie the Pooh as a theme...Make sure to let us know so we can get what you will like and not dissappoint! Also, where are you registered again?
Next time I see you I'm hoping to be able to feel a little kick or two as well (from the baby--not you guys!!) :)
I had a really good time with you shopping and am glad you bought things you are happy with. I've been wearing my crocs all the time too--aren't they wonderful?? Now you are officially a CROC WEARER!!! Hah hah!!
