Random

So, this is just a random blog -- just some things that have humored me lately. First, I want to share two things I have seen lately while coming home. One was just down our road -- a huge cardboard sign that read "Lost Sick Yorkie -- Needs Meds -- Please call ###". I found that really funny, not to be mean or anything :) The other I saw today. Some "homeless" people were on the side of the road with a sign that read "Looking for God's people. Will you help us without lying?" I'm not sure exactly what they meant by the second part. What exactly would I lie about?

Anyways, I went to Walmart today to find my nephew a birthday gift for his second birthday. While looking around -- I noticed something so cute, I couldn't pass it up. Not for my nephew, but for Tristan. Now, understand this -- I have been so good about not buying anything for Tristan (we got so much at showers!) except some necessary items and a few clothing items at consignment stores (for about $2 each -- yes, I'm cheap). But, anyways, I saw this and just had to get it -- my little treat for my little boy :)










His own sock monkey! It was only $5, so I thought "Why not?!" Everybody needs to have a sock monkey growing up! It just makes me smile :)

Had my 38 week appointment yesterday. No change since last week, so just waiting. I did have "higher" blood pressure last week, but thankfully, that was back to normal this week. Strange though, I actually lost 1.5 lbs! Definitely not trying to -- I feel like I eat more than normal. Who knows... So, Nate and I decided to have a Sonic date last night and get some ice cream -- it was so good as always! Definitely feeling more contractions -- most are painless, but every once in a while, it will be a little achy. Nate thinks Tristan will come March 4 -- but I'm thinking either March 8 or 12. He also thinks Tristan will be 7 lbs 8 oz, but I think the opposite -- 8 lbs 7 oz. Guess we will see soon enough!

  1. Well, I just hope the owners of the Yorkie doesn't read your blog. :) But, on a happy note -- I LOVE the sock monkey and I know Tristan will enjoy it one day, too. And I'm saying that Tristan will be born either March 6 or 7 and he'll weigh 7 lbs. 13 oz. (one pound less than you weighed when you were born). :)

  3. I bet Erika wishes that Tristan would make a quick appearance and come on her birthday (March 3rd), but I have to say I think a week from today - March 5th! =) and I say 7 pounds 10 ounces.
