I burnt two fingers on my left hand with the iron yesterday. I set it directly on my hand. Pregnancy brain, anyone?
E thinks I've been "nesting", but really, I'm just trying to prepare as much as I can before I get 1.too uncomfortable and 2. before school starts and I have even less time.
Baby girl's nursery is almost finished! My mom is making the crib skirt, and I have plans for a baby blanket/quilt with the scraps. I think it looks fabulous! I promise to share pictures, soon! Here's a teaser.
We've spent very little time at the pool this year with out E. I just don't feel up to handling watching the bigger 2 kids in the deep end, and keeping track of a wild-totally-has-no-fear toddler in the immense heat. I promise to do better next summer. (As long as baby girl is not walking...)
My little brother went and grew up and got engaged! My brother, D, and my future SIL, R are planning a May wedding as of now. Aren't they cute?
We looked, very briefly, into flying all of us out to the wedding (since Mapquest put it at 14 hrs for a drive, with out stops.) Then, we quickly realized that flying 5 people, renting a car, then paying for a hotel, plus 2 dresses and a tux just weren't going to happen. Maybe there's something fun to do between here and Pennsylvania to make the trip more intersting.
My heartburn/acid reflux has gone from controlled to uncontrollable. I started Prevacid when I was 19 weeks and it worked great! Until 2 weeks ago. I've been miserable. I cut out caffeine, pop, and eating big meals. I talked to the pharmacist today, and she pretty much said that there isn't much else I can do. *sigh* Before I complain too much, I would like to say that I am SO grateful that I never had this with my first 3 kids. 1 pregnancy is enough.
No, we don't have a name for the baby, yet. (Although, if it was up to me, we would. ;))
A friend's husband died last night after a freak fall that lead to cardiac arrest. I have never even met him before, but I am so sad and heartbroken for my friend. Her daughter is O's age, and her son is A's age. E is at a conference tonight, and I just want to hug him- for a really long time.
I don't know if it helps for pregnancy heartburn but my mom told me that green olives help, we didn't believe it until we tried it, it worked like a charm! Maybe it's worth to try! Hope it helps!
I can totally relate to the iron thing. Mine was a curling iron. I completely grabbed the hot part without even thinking about it. Just grabbed it!
I LOOOOOVE the nursery teaser picture. The mobile is adorable. I never even thought about making a skirt and finding a bumper to match. I bet her nursery will be absolutely adorable!
I'm sorry to hear about our husband's friend. I will definately keep that family in my prayers. It is never easy to lose a loved one and I can't imagine explaining to my child about her father.
I'm in the same boat with the heartburn. Mine is almost unbearable. I am not on medication though so I shouldn't complain. I just kind of figured it's a part of the pregnancy thing, but recently it's gotten so bad I wake up choking on acid in my throat and I can't sleep any way except on my left side. I hope it goes away soon. I know how uncomfortable it can be at times.

The last one is awful. I can't believe it even happened. :(
The picture of your brother/future sil is great. How cute!

I had heartburn with my pregnancy and it was rough. I'd never had it before but I've had it a few times since.
I love names!! Naming our girl wasn't easy because my husband is TERRIBLE at helping/choosing/compromising.
