20 Weeks

Everything is going great. I am not sick anymore; however, I still haven't really gained any weight. At times, I feel the baby move. It feels kinda fluttery. We are impatiently waiting for Sept. 4th. Hopefully, we can still go to the doctor on this day; however, I have to call and see if I can get in somewhat earlier. My Tuesday night class starts at 5:00, and...well...she basically said that tardiness will not be tolerated.

Last weekend, we turned the whole house upside down. Jason rebuilt a frame for our bed because the existing one was crap. We moved a rug and table out of the kitchen, 2 bookcases out of the bedroom, and 1 bookcase and filing cabinet out of the computer room. Of course, all of the books are sitting on the floor in various rooms. The dining room is going to lose a TV stand, a TV, and a CD holder thingy. And the existing furniture in the guest bedroom is ready to go as well. Also, Jason started building a deck in the backyard. And on top of that, the shed needs cleaning out. So pretty much, the entire house is in disarray. And Tuesday and Wednesday night, I have had class until 8:30 pm. And I know ya'll think that taking classes is crazy, but I started this doc program in 1999. Some of those classes will start falling off in 2009 because there is a 10 year limit on them. So....I have to take these classes now!

Just FYI...
I have heard this several times now: Raising your arms above your head will strangle or wrap the baby’s umbilical cord around his or her neck. This is a MYTH! I hate having to nicely fend off this stuff in 2007 :)

With Brandon and Stephanie's 2 testosterone machines on their way, and Amy and Bubba with their 3 t-machines, we need an extra boost of estrogen. So until Sept. 4th, here's to hoping for a girl...but ya'll know I'm not a real pink dress and ruffle freak!
