Baby

Finished the nursery. It took forever, and made me cry like every day, but I think I'm finally satisfied. I'll post pics. Only 5 more weeks!

Sweet Summer

I feel like I might die if Summer doesn't come soon. This is sitting in my garage just waiting for me to get in it....

Those people are not in my garage.

Happy Valentines Day

Yesterday I fell asleep to the sounds of Jeff playing baseball (in his imagination), and talking to himself, and Sadie eating my wedding shoe. And I thought to myself, what a sweet family I have. It's weird what you learn to appreciate when you become a wife, and are getting ready to be a mom. Baby time is getting closer, and we are getting so excited. The nursery is finally coming together after several mind changes on my part. I don't know why the room is so important to me, but I want it to be perfect. Sometimes I take the dog in there, set her on my lap, and rock her while she growls and bites me. It's our special bonding time. Just one more month and a half, and I'll be posting about a real baby instead of the dog. It's something we can all look forward to.

Things that make me want to say a swear

Thing #1- When I lose a solitaire game.

Thing #2- When cold air gets on my ankles.

Thing #3- When Sadie has gas. Actually, when anybody has gas.

Thing #4- When Jeff talks for 5 hours about how mad he is that he lost his solitaire game, and then tries to show me how bad his cards are. P.S. We just discovered solitaire on our ipods.

Thing #5- When blogs I really want to read are made private. Who needs privacy?

Thing #6- When my CD skips in the car. Am I the only one that still listens to CD's?

Thing #7- When people tell me I don't look pregnant. I think they think it's a compliment, but I just think it's annoying.

Thing #8- When I live in a dumb apartment that will never get clean or look cute.

Thing #9- When I let the dog chew on my phone, so that maybe it will break, and I can get a new one, but it doesn't break, because it's so old that it's actually durable.

Thing #10- When I buy new chapstick and then lose it. Like 3 times in a row. Permanent chapped lips.

Thing #11- Stepping in pee when I just put clean socks on.

Thing #12- When the workers at stores say, "I can help whose next."

Things that don't make me want to say a swear:

Smiths doughnuts.

Update

It's Saturday morning, and I'm up with Sadie. Jeff has been getting up with her every day, so I can sleep, and it's been so nice. He deserves a break. I feel like a little kid that can finally do anything I want, because everyone else is asleep. So I'm eating candy corn for breakfast. I eat candy corn for breakfast every day, but today it feels more bad.

Sadie is doing so good with her training. The puppy classes have really helped. So far she can sit, lay down, stay, jump, and be nice (kind of). She's also doing tons better with biting. She still bites, but she'll stop if you tell her to . You can tell it's hard for her, because sometimes she'll still put her mouth on you and growl, or she'll whine when you tell her to stop. It's still an imrovement. We have alot to work on before the baby comes. I still expect her to be a hyper puppy, but I want her to really have not biting and being gentle down. I never thought I'd be one of those people that acts like my dog is my child, but here I am. Jeff talks to her in a baby voice though, so if you want to hate someone hate him.

Gracie is getting bigger and bigger. That's just a more positive way of saying I'm getting bigger and bigger. She's kicking and moving around all the time. Sometimes we just sit and watch my stomach move all over, and try to guess what she's doing in there. I'm finally starting to feel the uncomfortableness of being pregnant. A couple days ago I tried climbing through a fence, and got stuck. My stomach is really starting to get in the way. One of the things I'm looking forward to the most is being able to bend over again. We're getting really excited for baby to come. Only two more months. We've started working on her room, and buying some baby clothes. We really want to go all out, and paint her room, and buy new furniture, but we decided to be more practical and use what we have, so we're borrowing a crib from my sister, and using a small dresser that we've had in our guest room. We did buy a rocking chair, so I'm excited about that. We could still paint, but we're only in our contract here for 9 months, so by the time Grace comes we'll only have 5 months left, and we'd have to paint it all back. We'll still make it cute though. I'll post pictures when we're done. Well that's all for now. Sadie is crying to go see Jeff.

Dress Pics

Sorry to those of you who are interested in my dress, and couldn't receive any of the photo attachments. I'll post some here, so they're easier to view. Let me know if you want to see any of the dress alone. So far all I have are the ones with me wearing it, but I can always pull it out, and take more.

Thanks!

Dumb things

I've been thinking about things to blog about for weeks now. Every time I think of a good joke I plan to save it for my blog, and then I forget it, so eff that. We moved. Our new apartment sucks. I hate it. Today I got yelled at for kicking snow on the sidewalk. Eff the maintenance man. Why am I so immature? We got our puppy. She's so naughty that we have her in puppy training. Right now she's sleeping in Jeff's underpants while he does his business on the toilet. Is that inapporpriate to say in public? I don't know. Anyway, this is the nicest she's been all day. That's all. Bye. P.S. I miss you blogging world. My computer is still in a box somewhere:( Eff moving
