It has been an interesting two weeks. First I got really sick with a head cold. Luckily, it only stuck around for a few days. I hardly ever get sick but I swear pregnancy has ruined my immune system. I really think the gym is the place that keeps getting me sick. That place has more germs then a kindergarten class. Along with always getting sick, I'm losing brain cells more and more each day. Sometimes I wonder what happened to my common sense. Here is an example: I have been trying to organize the house since we are getting close to the BIG day. I had this brilliant idea to start moving stuff around in the garage. I never really go into our garage because that's Dana's man cave. I got the itch because our glider was in there along with a lot of my photography props. My plan was to find everything a home that didn't belong in the garage. First of all, why I was trying to move our glider/recliner chair is beyond me but it was really bugging me. I started with my photography props (which also includes a large chair) but Dana's motorcycle was in the way. So I decided to move it out of the way. I had no idea how heavy that thing would be. I mean I've played on motorcycles and even have my motorcycle license! I started to push it forward and the kickstand came up. That was my "oh crap" moment. In slow motion it started to fall on me. My first thought was "Dana is going to kill me!" and my second thought was "This thing is going to snap my ankle!" as I started to fall with the bike. Thank the Lord a gas can caught the bike and and I was able to wiggle my way from underneath it. I was so scared of the damage I did to it. I tried to pick it up like an idiot but it was way too heavy. I immediately called my dear friend Kim to come over and help me. I honestly do not know what I would do without her! She always comes to my rescue when I get into trouble!! :) Next I had to call bossman and tell him the bad news. I felt awful because he had just got a new bike and wanted to sell this one. He really didn't care what happened to the bike he was more concerned about me. When he got home from his trip he took a look and said since the gas can caught the fall, there wasn't any damage. I was so relieved! I was asked to never play around in the garage and I am not allowed to pick up/move heavy objects while pregnant. I think I can follow those rules. :)
In other news, my belly is growing like a weed. I love it. It doubles as a table. I love putting bowls on it or resting my arms on it. Mason started having hiccups. Usually its at night time when I'm laying in bed. He also likes to kick me in my bladder. That's always fun. He is really active in the morning and late at night. He moves a lot when I use my high pitched voice to talk to Winston or him. It's pretty amazing to feel him move around from the sound of my voice. I had to include this ridiculous picture of my friend Wendy and I. It's our belly to belly picture. I have never been a huge fan of bare belly pictures. They're silly and a little weird....lets be honest! The reason I find this picture so funny is because Wendy is around 7 weeks ahead of me. Look how big my belly is compared to hers! Which makes me think her mystery baby is a girl. Whatever the case my be this picture makes me laugh. This is from her baby shower breakfast turned into a girls day. We were enjoying the 80 degree day in March! :)
Scene of the crime!
