Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Toys, Tickles and Tired

January 15, 2008 — 9:01 pm

I’ve been awake since 6am. It is now closing in on 8pm and I am seriously zonked (yes, in my world that is a word). I am somehow functioning without naps…

And starving. I ate a nice big salad (with chicken and egg) at noon before I went to work, but unfortunately the snacking while at work wasn’t all that plentiful nor healthy. So by the time I got home at 7? Yeah. Starving. I sucked down a large bowl of soup and am now eating an apple. Boy apples are good.

The last couple days I think Devin’s been head-down. Why do I think this? Because first of all, while at work I’m getting this general, constant need to pee. There’s just some weird pressure down there that wasn’t there before. And then there are the little wiggles. It feels like someone is literally tickling my bladder from the inside. Not strong kicks, but little movement really low… I’m thinking hands? I still get some kicks up around my belly button. Hmmmm.

Earlier today my SIL (the one who’s pregnant) forwarded me an email from a friend of hers. Friend is getting rid of some toddler toys, SIL doesn’t have any storage space for things in the future so she wondered if I wanted any of them. One of them was the Drop and Roar Dino! It had already made it’s way onto my “wish list for the future” because it looks so damn cool. I really hope we can get it… how cool!! (It may be one of those toys that I play with more than the kid. I understand this, lol!) Another toy was a little piano. Yay!

On my drive home I was thinking about these toys I hopefully will be getting and thinking about next Christmas. I was tired and my mind was really wandering a lot, but I was just thinking about wish lists and toys and family and next Christmas we will have a son. I almost started crying in the car (not recommended while driving). What an amazing, amazing thought.
