sara dr. in the house?'s Journal

11:53am: 10 days!
chloe juniper is due to come out in 10 days! i am soooo excited!!!!! i thought i would be more nervous than this, but im not.. maybe it hasnt fully hit me!? i hope she is early, on time or only a few days late.. if i dont have her by the 24th they will induce labor.. i dont want that!

sooo i am eating pineapple and walking and bouncing on the birth ball and doing yoga and meditating!

im not really in any pain, but sleeping has become difficult. i am also sick of my feet looking like the nutty professor's feet. they scare me.

6:04pm: gosh..
i got fat!

10:29am: baby movements!
i love love love love feeling her move in there! she is moving right now!! time is flying!! i cant wait to meet her!!

on my right side i feel something big and round.. so im guessing thats either a butt or a head! i also have been enjoying the sci fi belly movements.. i want to take a video of it soon!

zzzzzzzzzzz.. im tired.

4:45pm: things and stuff!
its been awhile since i wrote to this journal which is live. so right now i am reporting live from my keyboard! as i type this, it is LIVE, but when you read this it will be pre-recorded.. so i feel like saying "live" journal is a lie.. and i apolgize for lying since 2002 about this.

well i have a big belly.. and its getting bigger everyday! just when i think i found clothes that fit, i grow out of them the next week.. i havent really bought maternity clothes yet, but i may have to break down and do it soon.. we'll see!

we have been house hunting since i found out i was knocked up.. we came close.. the house i was talking about in a previous entry ended up coming thru.. and when it came to the day to sign the papers, we changed our minds.. we looked at another house that day and realized we need to keep looking.. well here i am in the 3rd trimester starting this weekend, and still in our 1 bedroom apartment.. in the beginning i was really depressed about being in this small space with joey working from home and me with a new baby here too... but i had to come to peace with it.. somehow it will all work out.

lately i have been wanting to go swimming.. so maybe i will look for something to swim in.. and then find a pool.. we have one in our apartment complex, but im paranoid that there is a lot of pee in there.

well.. i guess thats all for now.. im a glucose addict.


seriously though.. maybe because i fasted so long before, but this drink tasted good to me.

10:17pm: kicks!
i never thought feeling kicks inside of my stomach would be so comforting! i like the bounce bounce kick thomp wooooo waaaaaaaaaaa!!!! i feel it right now!!!

8:21am: houses and babies and dreams.. oh my!
the house i mentioned in the previous entry ( forever ago).. we had a loooong waiting time to get papers from the bank..and then when they finally responded and the house was about to be ours, our realtor said he found a bigger house in a neighborhood we REALLY want to live in that was in better shape.. sooo we went and looked at it THE DAY we were going to sign for the other..

we then decided to cancel our offer on the first house.. and put an offer on this awesome house..we were really getting excited..... until the bank decided to renegotiate with the previous owners of the house... i was selfishly sooo sad to see that house go, buttttttt i am glad to know that at least one family got their forclosed home back.

but tick tock tick tock.. time is flying.. we are getting so close to the time our little baby Chloe Juniper is here. meanwhile we are still in our 1 bedroom apartment, that also functions as joey's office.. so things are about to get pretty tight here..

as much as i feel like im complaining, i know we will be fine.. people raise babies in huts in some places.

last night i had a dream that i was in the hospital and i had chloe! but right after i decided i needed to go to a mall and practice stilt walking.. so i was walking around this mall just after giving birth on stilts.. meanwhile poor chloe was waiting for me in the hospital.. haha when i woke up i was really excited about getting to meet her!

this was a long entry.. i didnt expect to write this much..why do i wake up so early everyday!?

4:19pm: i suck at making decisions!
we looked at MANY houses.. most of them were no good... but there were a few beautiful ones! many of those beautiful homes we JUST missed our chance to put in an offer... ahhh!..

so yesterday we found a BEAUTIFUL home in a BEAUTIFUL neighborhood and the house has an awesome back yard! so whats my problem!? the master bedroom has a bathroom connected to it with one MAJOR design flaw.. the room has a huge vaulted ceiling and so does the bathroom, but there is NO WALL and no door in between.. so pretty much anytime we would have to REALLY go potty we would be going potty in our bedroom..

so yea.. add a wall or door right?! but the way its set up it makes it almost impossible.. sooooo i cant decide, do i want to ignore this and go for it? or keep looking and hope there is another one.. its just this neighborhood is a dream come true and i doubt we will find something like this. but who knows. .its a gamble!

ps.. that would be the view of me on the toilet whil in our bedroom

12:48pm: whats in a name?!

8:46am: horses
last night i was dreaming about horses.. they were running full speed at me and my friend and this woman who was talking to us.. i was peeing on a toilet in the middle of a field.. and the horses were charging at us.. i was freaked out, but everyone else thought it was cute.

on a superficial note, i cant decide if i want to keep growing my hair out or chop it off.. i hate this in between legnth.. blaah its boooring.

yayy girlscout cookies.. it sucks cause joey is watching his weight.. and im knocked up so all i wanna do is eat.. aaaah!

3:35pm: a new fun thing!
i am excited because last night for the first time someone asked me how far along i was.. and it was a total stranger!! woohoo! all this time i thought i just looked like i ate too much...

it happened again today!!! i guess i look knocked up now! joey is like DUHHH .. but i have a distorted view of what i look like always, so to me i just thought i looked fat. so yippy for looking the part now!

12:19pm: 7 tongues.. one mouth
last night i found out i have a rare disease.. i am growing many small tongues on my tongue.. 7 to be exact..here is the worst part, one is growing in my throat.. soon i will not be able to breathe or swallow unless i have the operation to remove them all.. they will eventually grow to full size if i do not take care of them...

other than that today is a happy day!

so a couple hours ago i decided to vacuum.. .it was fun, but as i bent over i felt a wooosh woosh feeling in my head.. like there was fluid or something? and now i feel really off balance.. i have never had this before.. are there goldfish habitats in my skull!?

i have been training hardcore to start a new job in a garden.. i will be tall, clingy and more green than ever..
