what just happened??

You know when you have one of those days and you're like...um....what just happened here?

ya

today was like that

So I woke up and put this shirt on...one I wear about every other day. Its a L T-shirt...you know, perfect for pregnancy lounging. And low and behold...it doesnt fit.

um...this shirt fit 2 days ago, what happened? well, its probably the baby growing, right?

haha, or maybe the fact that I've gained 10 lbs in the last few weeks. That's probably it. 

<<I should probably harness my milk shake cravings!>>

Anyway, then, knowing that I have a dentist appt to make it to at 10:30, and I have to drop Eli off at the babysitters at 10, meaning I have to leave here at 9:45,....I still decide I want to go to the gym and work out. 

You know, because all pregnant women, who feel like a whale, and waddle like a duck, and can't put their workout shoes on, just love to workout. So, I head out to workout at 9.

I do my wonderful stationary bike 30 min workout...but since it takes me 3x as long to walk to and from the gym as a normal person, I get back at 9:45. All sweaty, no make-up, and diaper bag not ready.

Oh ya, I realize that I had just hit a button on my phone for a "system update." As I walk home I realize that it flashed something about taking 15 mins to update....wait. I don't know how to get to my friend's house without my phone! Seriously, no guessing here. So after I change clothes, wrangle my sweaty hair, wrangle eli from climbing on the counter and eating my retainers, put on make-up, accidentally get mascara on my eyelids, wrangle eli again for sticking his hands in the toilet...I realize that I have to print directions to her house and its already 9:55

I then realize that Eli has turned off the printer. So I turn it on....another system cleaning, this always takes for. ev. er.!!!   So, now its 10 and I'm waiting for the printer to clean the print heads and Eli is trying to unplug the printer. 

as I waddle around trying to catch him...I check my phone and...hooray, the system update is done. And I finally can get in my car and go to the babysitters....

wow! that was stressful. Why do things like that have to happen?

I feel like I have this mom thing under control most times, and I am rarely late because I prepare ahead of time and leave with lots of time to spare for Eli to stop and tell me about the rocks 5 times, and then stop and eat cheerios off the car floor before we can buckle him in. #hesseriouslyissocutethough

But today...i was a mess

and now my phone is all updated and all my settings are off, and I can't remember how to change them, like it showing me who texted me or how to turn off the dinging sounds....lol

good news. after i made it to the dentist appt, they cleaned my teeth and I wait for like 20 mins for the dentist to come in. You know, I walked past all the empty chairs, so I know no one else is in the office...but whatever. Doctors do what they want because they went to school for a long time. She blows air on my teeth and looks in with a light for 15 seconds and...

#ohyeahbacktothegoodnews

...declares me cavity free!

um....k. I have never had a dentist do that. Usually they have to poke your teeth and such...but whatever. If you don't want money from my insurance for fake cavities, I'm fine with that.

Then she left without me being able to ask her if its better to brush Eli's teeth every few days at night, or every morning (because, he basically hates it. Anyone who knows Eli knows that he is the happiest little boy....he is, except when i brush his teeth, haha. And I always forget at night...so I wanted her opinion, but I guess she had "other patients" to do a 15 second check up on. )

Anyway, enough of that stuff....

I am super excited to not be pregnant anymore. My friend posted about being able to bend down to put her clothes on, now that she's had her baby. It might have made me cry thinking about how hard it is for me to even turn over in bed, but alone put pants on. But our sweet little one is almost here. #bepositive #bepositive #bepositive

But I will miss all the awkward conversations I get to have because of being prego.

Just a few weeks ago, people have started to outwardly guess that I am pregnant. You know, just bring it up without asking, but it is still sooooo funny!

The hygenist today said "so...um...anything new since we last saw you?"

I almost responded "nope, except that i've gained 30 lbs in just my belly area....I know you're in the  teeth business, but you know of any good diets for big bellies??"

haha, but I didn't 

or I hear things like "whoa, you've got that little one and are ready to have another?"

"no ma'am, I'm not ready. Do you know how to prolong pregnancy for a few more months until I am ready?"

or how about this one:

"you're already 7.5 months pregnant? that went by fast!"

"I know, it was like I fell asleep and then bam. I woke up two seconds later and had to use the bathroom, and that has happened all....night....every...night...for the last 7 months. Yeah, time sure flies when you can't sleep at night!"

Ok, I should stop this sarcastic post.
