6 Month Appointment

Today I went in for my 6 month appointment. I started the rotation of seeing each doctor in the office and today I met with Dr. Hutton. We've met before, months ago, but it was still nice to sit down and chat with him. My blood pressure was good, the belly measured good, but that pesky weight thing came up again. Yep, did it again. Gained another 7lbs in one month! He wasn't mad, but did tell me all the things that I shouldn't be eating: carbs, bread, sweets---those are all the GOOD things I told him! LOL! What he may not realize is that I didn't gain any weight until my 5th month, that's when it all started. So, really my gain isn't all that bad. Right? RIGHT? Don't argue with the pregnant girl! Ha!

We got the crib on Friday and the changing table came today. Beautiful, just beautiful. I like the color and the design. I can't wait to get the crib together (nope, as of today, still not together), but that's ok. The daybed that I had hoped to keep in the room just isn't going to work out, so it looks like it will be heading north to the Higgins Lake house for a while. And once that happens I will probably order the matching chest of drawers and look for a rocker with ottoman and the room will be complete. I ordered the cutest tree wall sticker mural thingy yesterday. It stands about 5.5' tall and about 4' wide. It will have a brown trunk with rust and olive colored polka dots as the leaves. It's just the cutest. So excited to get it! The room is a neutral beige color (pecan to be exact), the bedding is orange spice, so it will be very gender friendly. We'll acccent with color once the baby comes and we know if it's a boy or girl.

Planning on registering soon, getting the shower invites out and then nesting! John doesn't understand nesting. Can someone explain it to him please...and also tell him that it's not the best time for him to pick on me or cop an attitude with me? It's just the way I am right now and it's mostly my hormones talking????

  1. you are so cute!!! (I found your blog through Lilah's, hope you don't mind?) My husband can explain nesting... I cried like a crazy person when he wouldn't move the couch so I could vacuum under it when I was super-cleaning weeks before Emily came. :)
