Searching For ...

I started to get into a nesting type mode ... possibly because Corey's disorganization and my need to organize work usually so well together and lately he's been winning. Or it could be that I foresee a lack of energy in my latter months of pregnancy ... either way ... as I sort through boxes of things (not sure how I got boxes of things) I realized something. I need somewhere to put these things. I am most definitely not expecting a baby shower or anything of the sorts ... please don't think that way. I do know that a lot of people often have things sitting around at home and they don't know what to do with them! I happen to be a person searching for items sitting in your home collecting dust. Some of my family/friends are either trying to get rid of their baby things as well or might have something that I am contemplating buying that I could try out. So ... because I like lists ... I made a list :) Here ... is the link ! I will send updates as I find things or as I need to add ... if you think you might have something that I might not know I need ... send me an email haha!

Good and Good

Today as we drove home from our prenatal appointment I realized something that I knew all along. A good prenatal appointment and a good prenatal caregiver makes you feel like you can do anything! I am pretty independent and have my own way of doing things and saying things. It's a fact and not a suggestion. I like to be in control of situations as much as possible and someone ... more than one someone told me that I could not control my pregnancy, my labor nor my delivery and I would like to tell you ... that nobody else does either. My body is in complete control of how this will work and the baby growing in my womb will tell my body what it needs to do. It's a miracle how well they will communicate and make things work out. I will eat healthy and exercise. I will stay away from negativity and surround myself with positivity and things that make me happy. I will try and stay as calm and peaceful as possible. And the most important thing I will do for myself is know that I will do what needs to be done to keep us both safe ... and that's that. Point Final. :)

24 weeks!

Only 16 weeks to go! I'm pretty pumped about it. Baby moves a lot more than Amélie did and I sure eat a lot more this time around. On a high note, my boobs are SUPER nice. WELL ... they ARE. I will edit this post after my next appointment next week, but for now here's a pictures of ME!

MORE INFO : Had a great appointment. Love Ros!! I weigh 122 lbs so doing fantastic. My placenta IS low about 2cm from my cervix so I will be going for another ultrasound in 5 weeks to see if it moved up. I'm praying that it does because the higher the better. It's also sitting towards my back. I've also had a lot of hip and pelvic joint pain which will soon be better after a visit with my chiropractor. Although lots of people get it, mine is crazy because I had a back injury a long time ago and my hip likes to do it's own thing. But all is well! I have amazing blood pressure and am measuring 24 cms ... so ... as usual ... perfect ;-) This baby does NOT like people touching it and doesn't really care for the doppler either. Heartrate is about 140's ... so lower than Amelie's and baby is head down ... or was head down at the time :) Any ... questions?

Christmas 2009

Christmas Pictures

There is the link to some cutey pictures of Amélie I think most are Christmas pictures.

This year we hosted Christmas on the Linfitt side. It went great!! OTHER than the stove almost starting on fire ... and ... other than the smoke filling the house ... and ... other than supper taking longer to make than predicted ... oh ... and don't forget the 3 hour nap that I took by accident ... but other than THAT it went pretty good I think :) Amélie had a blast and had a great time with her cousins, especially her buddy Tyler ;-) She was pretty tuckered out by the end lol.

Christmas morning was pretty cool this year too. Amélie went through her gifts that Santa brought her in a big haste! Lol, but quickly found a few of her faves. LUCKILY, Memere Rachelle bought her a storage container for all the blocks we suddenly found ourselves with. PHEW.
Amélie also sat Santa at the mall and ADORED him. I will post a picture once I declog my cluttered office (That Patricia already cleaned once for me) oopsies ... We saw Grandma and Grandpa Gareau a few days after Christmas and had some Lasagne and played a hilarious PS3 game called Fairytale Fights. Seriously ... entertaining for all adults. Luckily the game allows you to have almost unlimited life LOL. PHHEW for that one hey dad??

Corey got a PSP for Christmas and I got 4 new tires! ANd some maternity clothes that I desperately needed, and a bluetooth thingie, and a USB thingie, and a TIM HORTONS card ... and some awesome mittens! ANNNNND the SANTA CLAUSE trilogy. Be jealous. It's okay. Corey also got a few games and accessories for his PSP, this adorable little bow and arrow that shoots these toy deer, A Christmas Story ... and .... I forget. Oh yes ... I also got the game Dark Cloud and some books that I was searching for. YAY Yvonne!!! I'm already addicted to the game again.
