Being Pregnant is Amazing!

All throughout my life I have always listened with no real enthusiasm to mothers that talked about being pregnant, now I am experiencing exactly what they have been talking about. It is amazing. I have a little girl growing inside me. I feel her several times during the day. She is poking, kicking and punching my insides and I LOVE IT!! It is really surreal to think about most of the time.

In 3-4 months I will be meeting this little Gracie in person and I can't hardly wait. I wonder what she is going to look like. Will she be a mix of Steve and I or look like Steve's youngest daughter Haley (that is what I have pictured in my head). Will she be a blonde butterball like I was? Or will she have red hair from Steve's side? Oh, the possibilites are endless...

Busy Week!

Steve and I are going our seperate ways, for a few days. Steve is going up to Seattle and possibly California to attend auctions to find cars. Don't feel too bad for him, he may be able to squeeze in a round of golf with some of our car buddies in Seattle.

I am heading to Detroit on Wednesday morning for a business trip. I am not looking forward to it at all. It is to attend a business meeting that could be done on a conference call. I am flying over 7 hours each way to sit in a meeting for one day. Ridiculous!!!! And I have been having problems with my feet and ankles swelling already during my pregnancy. I hope my ankles don't explode when I am mid-flight! I did get a pair of lovely compression stockings that I will be wearing on the flights. Hopefully that will keep the swelling down and minimize any discomfort.

Baby Registry!!

I am overwhelmed to say the least. Trying to figure out what my little bean is going to need when she gets here is incredible. I can't thank my sister enough. She has been pointing me in the direction of some stuff that should be very helpful. I now have successfully finished a Babies r us and Target registry. Any other mothers can put their input in as well if you think I have forgotten anything. I am always up for advice.
