Realization

Webster's Dictionary definition:

Realization-to be aware of, to understand..

Well this week I have come to several realization's. Not to sound corny, but some of these have been a long time coming.

Things I realized this week, in no particular order.

1. I LOVE being pregnant(yes even with all the heartburn and sickness).

2. I hate that this could be my last pregnancy.

3. The nursery still isn't totally finished.

4. I haven't packed my hospital bag yet.

5. I really BELIEVE I am going to deliver this baby on Valentine's Day.

6. I LOVE my Church and especially my Sunday School Class.

7. I have the best friends a girl could ask for, I can be a total witch and they tell me, yet they still
love me.

8. I want a new house (okay this insn't really new, but more reasons have come into play lately).

9. I enjoy spending a quiet night at home playing a board game with my family without the t.v.
on.

10. I spend too much time on the internet, especially late at night.

11. We really need to get a new bed, because our mattress is uncomfortable.

This post is really random, but just a few things weighing on my pregnant mind this week. Many of these things made me really reflect and think, while others gave me that Oh No moment of panic..Here's hoping that all goes well with everyone this week. Take it easy and enjoy it.

31 weeks...Already...

That's right Im already at 31 weeks. This pregnancy is flying by. I went to see Dr B. today and all is well. I didn't gain any weight again, but that's nothing new. Baby is growing great. I am still measuring ahead but only by a week and a half(despite everyone telling me I am huge)..not three and a half weeks ahead like last time. My blood pressure and everything look great(Docs exact words) and I only have to check my sugars whenever I feel like they may be out of range...WOOHOO... The baby is definitely head down, but still floating(fine by me, I don't want her anywhere near the exit...LOL)..I go back on the 14th and the 29th, then I will be going every week..Dr B. says she wants to see me huge and pregnant, with lots of complaints. LOL.. As of this week at work, I am only working 4 days a week and one of those is a half work/half paperwork day, so hopefully that will help with me staying preggers longer this time around.

Family Update: All is well with everyone, Little K has cut another set of molars and 1 other tooth in the past 2 weeks, Big K is finally getting his canine teeth back in( they fell out like 6 months ago) and R is still working and his grad. classes start back up next week. Gotta love going to school where they cancel an entire week of classes due to our football team going to the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! Roll Tide!!!

Final Score: Santa 0 - Karli 1..

This year we decided to take the kids to the BassPro Shops to have their picture made with Santa. Korey being almost 12 didn't want to go. So Randall, myself and Karli loaded up. We got there a little after noon, and waited for just over 30 minutes. The entire time we were in line Karli kept pointing at Santa and saying "Sa"(we are guessing this is her way of saying Santa Claus). Finally, it was our turn. Our sweet little Karli in Santa's lap for her second year. Sorry for the small picture, but I couldn't get the zoomed version to add. Enjoy.
