Randomness

~I think I'm getting a cold.  Nothing bad, but enough to make my head feel stuffy and cause me to sneeze a lot.

~In reference to tonight's episode of "Lost", Ben is much more evil than I realized.  I knew he was evil, I just didn't realize to the extent that it goes.

~Today was a pretty warm day and I did not enjoy it.  It was almost too warm in the house and I cannot tolerate being warm in the slightest when I'm pregnant.  I'm really dreading the next 3 months or so.  I spent Garrett's naptime laying on my bed under the ceiling fan.  I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot more time in that position.

~I broke down and bought a second pair of maternity jeans.  I was really hoping to make it through this pregnancy with one pair, but that's impossible to do when you're a stay at home mom.  Jeans are part of my uniform.  I'm not the type of person that can go out of the house wearing sweatpants.  Thankfully I have several pairs of maternity capris and shorts so I will be wearing those soon as well.

~I think people who design maternity clothes are a little behind the fashion times.  The only pair that I found that fit comfortably through the stomach and thighs are bell bottoms.  Or they have that appearance anyway.  I bought them because pregnant women have limited options when it comes to jeans that fit your stomach comfortably.  But I don't think they're as fashion forward as they could be.  Of course, I'm not as fashion forward as I could be, so maybe they're the perfect pair for me.

~Tonight Garrett went to his room and brought out his pajamas, a pull-up, his lotion, and baby wipes.  Without being asked!  He was ready to get dressed for bed.  (The lotion is for his eczema.)  Keith looked at me and said "We picked the best age difference for our kids.  This is going to come in handy once Cooper's here."  I must say I'm very excited to have a helper in the form of my oldest son.  Now if I could just get him to take over nighttime feedings, we'll be all set.

~Garrett calls pine cones, pineapples.  I find that to be funny.  He would have a collection of them at home if I would let him.  I manage to sneak them into the trash can when he's not looking so he only has one floating around the house at a time.  

~Please pray for my Grandma and her family.  Her younger brother died this week.  He recently found out he had leukemia and went downhill pretty quickly.  It's been hard on my Grandma.  He's the first of her siblings to pass away and I'm sure the fact that he's younger than her makes it harder to comprehend.  Thankfully she and my Grandpa were able to fly out to California and see him before he died, and they were able to attend the funeral as well.
