david spoils me. i got what i wanted for christmas/birthday and some. tons of camera gear (yet somehow i could still use more lol). i also got a new camera bag that rocks the socks off anything i have ever seen. i almost paid $40 to have my new camera gear get here by christmas eve (tomorrow) since i am impatient and all, but i felt really guilty and ended up getting the cheaper $15 shipping that would get my package here the day after christmas. i received an email yesterday letting me know they upgraded my shipping for free and i will be getting it tomorrow on christmas eve. i checked the ups tracking site and it's already here in DFW. ack. so excited.
i am so ready to have ashton. i want him now. last night i had a rough night. i kept having "painful" braxton hicks (painful=extreme gassy pain). i don't want to say they were real contractions but they were frequent for five hours. not in any type of pattern though. just all over the place. (10 min here, 13mins there, 7mins, 20 mins etc) i am hoping there will be some major progress at my 39 week appointment tomorrow. so far i have only been effaced (60-70% as of last week) and no dilation. my mom is flying in on new years and it would be nice if ashton arrived by then. david deserves the tax break.
everyone (strangers) asks about my belly now. i have gone almost 8 months without anyone ever asking when i am due etc. and now EVERYONE asks. david loves the attention i have been getting! i think i will finally pack my hospital bag today. i didn't want to tell david about my contractions this morning. i don't want him getting all excited and have him worry about me at work. but i told him later this afternoon once they finally stopped and he is making me walk tonight at the mall LMAO. david is more eager to get him out than i am. david's brother is also in town and i STILL have to bake christmas cookies. it's so busy around here. i'm glad i have something keeping me busy though. i still have a few more items to sew but i am not really worried about it. oh and i finally retired my pre-pregnancy jeans this last weekend. they fit okay while standing up but sitting down is a completely different and uncomfortable experience. i only bought THREE maternity items my entire pregnancy. two maternity shirts and my bella band (best purchase ever!). i feel like i really got lucky and david should appreciate i saved him major bucks on maternity clothing lol! i do feel a bit sloppy walking around in yoga lounge pants all the time but i figure it would be a big waste of money to get maternity pants at this point.
i am so freaking excited about ashton. i just can't believe how fast it has gone. he is ALMOST HERE!!!! so many girls who were due the same time i am, have had their (healthy) babies already. i find myself overcome with envy lol..
