My child's laugh and smile...

This is what makes my life wonderful... To hear my child's laugh and to see his smiling face is all I need to know life is good.

“This is the day which the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it”

Jacob's getting shots today :(

I have already watched "Baby Einstein" two times today. I am thinking it's time for a little ER. I am not sure if I mentioned this before or not but David bought me like 13 seasons of ER for Christmas. I am now on season 2. I just hope we get tv before the new season starts this fall.

Jacob has to get his shots today. I am going to make David take him this time. I have had to do the dirty work all the other times he has had shots, so it's David's turn. I am guessing Jacob is going to get some type of reward after he is all done.

I have 9 1/2 weeks to go! I am barely sleeping at night because I can't get comfortable. I don't really enjoy being pregnant this time around, not sure why. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning, fun fun.

This weekend I am going to my cousin Chad's wedding. It feels like he is too young to be getting married. I still picture him 12 years old not 20. I am happy for him though.

The hours at JCPenney still suck but the work is so easy. I am going to need Altru to be hiring after this baby is born though, because David is going to have to start working weekends. I also don't think David could handle an infant and Jacob all by himself. He has never had to do the baby thing before so it's going to be hard on him at first. What am I saying, I don't even know if I can handle the two kids by myself! Jacob is a demanding little boy, he is used to having all our undivided attention.

I did take advantage of my JCPenney employee discount yesterday and got myself a pair of $20 sunglasses for only $4!

I really should be doing something productive instead of this. Maybe I will get dressed and Jacob and I will work on the yard. Either work on the yard or clean the kitchen. Neither of them sound very fun.

Motherhood is not about winning; it's about making it across the finish line intact!...

Still no name for baby #2...

I am getting uncomfortable and I still have 10 weeks to go! I can't lay down comfortably or sit up comfortable, and if I walk around too much I get tired. I am not a person, I am a walking hotel. I love the feeling of carrying my child but I am getting annoyed at the same time.... The joys of being pregnant.
Lincare found a way out of hiring me, I know I should be able to lift 120 pounds (my prepregnancy body weight) but I just can't. I am not upset though, JCPenney was nice enough to give me a job. I may make less and I have to work evenings but at least I get a 20% discount and Jacob doesn't have to go to daycare. I am planning on working here until Altru is hiring again but I am not going to worry about that until the baby is born.
We still have no baby names picked out yet. We haven't come up with a single name that we both like. I can't even really think of a name that I like yet. I am sure we will think of something. I did mention to David last night that we needed to think about godparents. His response was a sleepy "yeah". I think in the past few days I have thought of every little thing we still need to decide on and do before this baby is born. I will procrastinate on accomplishing any of it until October though.
Jacob is a little poop head but I still love him. He loves to shake his head no and stomp his feet. He is trying to put words into sentences. Yesterday's favorite phrase was, "I poop". He hit his head on his bed frame yesterday so he has a nice black eye today. It's not as bad as I thought it would be when it happened though. His new obsession is "Baby Einstein" videos. He will watch the one we have over and over. I checked some out from the library last week for my own sanity and he loved those ones too.
I think it's about time to wake up my napping family. They are so cute when they are asleep but if I let the 1 year old and 25 year old nap too long they won't want to go to bed tonight.
..."I poop"...
