Stacie feels like a “Weeble”

I feel like I have a watermellon sitting in my stomach! I feel like a Weeble when I walk around (Weebles wobble but they won’t fall down). I’m really full right now too, there is no treat like fresh strawberries and sweet cherries dipped in fruit dip! YUM!
Okay, I should be working on my research paper, but I just don’t feel like it! I wish I could get in the mood to just whip the rest of it out, but I just can’t! I have it about half done, but I need to share some statistics in it. So, I have been working on the research portion to add some statistics to support my theories. Make sense? I have a few websites saved for that already. But right now I can hear my husband snoring away right now, and I really want to join him for a nice NAP!
Earlier this week we had “carseat” class to learn about carseats and how to install them in our cars. It was interesting. David said he almost fell asleep during the first 5 minutes, but then he started to get interested in it. I said, “Well, next month’s class should be a real eye opener then! Labor and Delivery! Go ahead, take you bottom lip and pull it over your head!” That is what Bill Cosby said one of his female relatives told him about how childbirth feels. I figure it is only temporary, once it is over you’ll have this exciting little bundle of joy to behold. (he’ll probably pee on me the first time I hold him hunh?) Plus, there is my friend Barb’s motto too, “Drugs in, Baby OUT!” I may be a bad mother, but I am not one of those people who is freaked out about taking medicine. I don’t smoke, I don’t drink, and I don’t do any street drugs, but I will take my prescription medications. I worked with my physicians before I got pregnant to decide which medicines were best to control the 3 or 4 ailments that I suffer from during pregnancy. I have Allergies, GERD, and depression with anxiety. I know there are people out there that are freaked out about every little thing. I wash the fruit and veggies, but I still drink a couple caffeinated beverages per day. Soda pop is my biggest downfall. I LOVE the stuff! I am probably going to die with a Dr. Pepper in my hand! But from what I have seen on the ultrasound “Kendall” is perfect! He’s a beautiful little boy! Can’t wait to finally meet him! When my doctor said, “16 more weeks!” the other day, I just about freaked Only sixteen? How can that be? Well dork, you are 24 weeks pregnant now, sometime I was going to end up on the other side of the halfway mark, duh! I just looked at my little pregnancy wheel thing, next week, it says I will be in my third trimester! Wow, that is weird. Most people still can’t tell I am pregnant, I just look chubbier. In fact, when we went to carseat class, I was almost waiting for someone to ask us if we were adopting! Just about every woman in the room was sporting a basketball! I did feel a little better when I saw one woman sitting near me though, she looked the same way I do, just chunky. I have gained 16.5 lbs, which they tell me is totally normal, and actually good for me being 24 weeks.
Well folks, I do feel that new bed calling my name right now….I’m feeling like I need about an hour, then I can get back to the homework!
So goodbye for now!
