I've Made Progress and Mood Update

The nursery is now painted and Frank hung the new ceiling fan. Which really surprised me, because he usually does not mess with electricity so I was impressed. And I bought bedding that I think is adorable. It's by Kelly Rightsell and is called Fly Fishing. I wasn't really into the themes, but I loved this one. And I thought Frank would appreciate having a really 'boy' nursery, so I secretly picked this out just for him. I was going to do more of the circus animals- elephants and monkeys, but he wasn't really crazy about that. So I sure do hope Tyler likes fishing! And I finally decided on a pale green color called Aloe for the walls. The furniture is being delivered this week. As soon as it is set up, I will post pictures. But for now...here's a look at the bedding.


Now for my "Mood Update." It is still very unpredictable. My house is a complete mess and every time I go home, it makes me ill. And apparently there is some rule that only females can operate a vacuum cleaner. And while we are on that subject, did you know that grocery stores only allow women to do the shopping. I don't know who came up with those rules, but if I knew who it was, I'd do everyone a favor and shoot them! So you can see that the horns are still out and Frank can not win for losing right now. I am going to call someone to clean my house for me as soon as I put it back together. Which still seems silly to me...You have to get your house clean so that someone can come and clean it. Go figure. Momma is coming up this weekend, so I should have everything together by then. And once my house is put back together....I don't plan on doing ANYTHING until the baby gets here. I mean, I am not lifting a finger! No cleaning...no cooking...no nothing. We'll either starve or do take out.

And the baby is getting HUGE, which means I am getting HUGE!!! So that doesn't help either. I have to do a "roll" just to get out of bed in the mornings b/c I can't sit up! I feel like Porky the Pig! I just don't see how my stomach can stretch any further out before it explodes. So I have definitely hit the miserable stage. And I look at my other pregnant friends and they are just so darn cute right now. And I feel like a blimp. And it doesn't help out when Frank points out that I have a new stretch mark!!!!! He finds this very funny and he keeps asking me, "Will they go away after the baby gets here." I want to reply, "Will you go away after the baby gets here." But I don't. So would someone please give him a call and tell what What TO say, and more importantly, What NOT TO say to a very pregnant woman!!!

And just for the record, yes I love Him and no he is not THAT bad, but this is my outlet to vent so that I don't strangle him, Palmetto Alarm, and annoying people that keep calling me on the phone. (Which by the way...the alarm people are SUPPOSED to show up today and god help them if they don't.)

I love the bedding and I am sure Tyler will too. I have been aware for some time about the women only rules and it sucks but I'd rather do it and get it right the first time anyway! :)
Last time I sent Josh to the grocery store, he came back without the milk I needed but he sure remembered beer and reeses peanut butter cups. :)

I should of read this before last night! I could of gotten JV to talk with Frank. Not that he is the best at saying the right thing but seeing that he went through on pregancy he has a little of an advantage! I think you look amazing! I know it's not Frank but hopefully that will put a smile on your face! Love you AmyP
