Week 14

I’m now 14 weeks along and the time is not going by nearly fast enough.  This week the baby is supposed to be the size of a lemon, although last week it was the size of a peach and in my mind a peach is bigger than a lemon but okay.  So far so good, still two more weeks until our next appointment.  Hopefully we’ll be able to schedule the big ultrasound at that point. 

This weekend we bought frames for the pictures we had professionally done a few weeks ago.  We bought one for the picture of the whole family and then one for just Casey and I.  Because we bought the frames that already have matting included, I had to find some of my scrapbooking corners so the pictures could slide into those and keep the pictures mounted in place.  While going through my scrapbooking stuff, I decided I hadn’t scrapbooked in over a year so I worked on it this weekend.  I manged to finish 11 pages but still have more to go before the album is finished.  I have the rest of the album planned out there so hopefully next time I sit back down with it, things will move along even faster.  I was sitting on the floor when I was doing this which caused my back to become really sore, couple that with my aching sciatic nerve that’s been bothering me for a couple of weeks now and I’m just a gimp today.  The receptionist (who doesn’t know I’m pregnant) asked if I was limping and I told her I pulled something this weekend.  Which I may have, I didn’t help with the deck for very long but I did help.

I went with my mom and grandma this weekend to several different fabric stores.  We were on the search for the perfect bedding for the nursery.  I had another complete bedding set, but after debating it for two months, Casey and I decided to send it back.  A puppy theme was our first choice anyway, so now that grandma has her fancy new machine, she said she would make the bedding for us!  We did find the material for the bedding and bought all of the fabric that was left.  So hopefully we won’t need more or, we’ll have to hopefully track more down.  We also picked up a couple of pieces of fleece that grandma is going to make baby blankets out of.  I’ll post pics of the nursery and bedding once it’s all set up.  The furniture isn’t even ordered yet, so it won’t be any time soon I don’t think. 

I have Friday off so this week I’m working 10s so I don’t have to take any vacation time.  It sucks so now I’m just looking forward to my 15 minute breaks since there’s no lunch to break the day up.  I’m taking my first break in about 6 minutes and then my other one won’t be until later this afternoon.  I’ve already been here almost 5 hours though.
