BABY NAMES!!!

I have spent hours going through baby name websites and books to come up with a list of baby names I like. I know I am pregnant and hormonal so some of the names may be kinda out there. I am leaning towards James as a middle name since we used Timothy with Jacob, but sometimes it just doesn't fit so those names have no middle name yet. This list may change so check up on it from time to time. I welcome all comments and votes on the names. Here it goes!...
Anderson James Gaddie -- Ander
Aric James Gaddie
Bryson James Gaddie
Dominic Gaddie -- Dom or Nic
Drake Gaddie
Freedom James Gaddie
Myles Gaddie
Orion Robert Gaddie
Ryder James Gaddie
Ryley James Gaddie
Samuel James Gaddie -- Sam
Zade Gaddie
Zebadiah James Gaddie -- Zeb
Zeus Gaddie

I got to get something done around here.

My body is ready for this baby to be born but we are far from actually being ready. The baby still needs a name. We still have to get all the baby stuff we have put away. We still need to buy bottles, socks, and a diaper bag. I also want to do some major cleaning and organizing, this house is a disaster. I have a doctor appointment today, maybe he will let me know about how much time I have to get all that stuff done. I think I have come up with a pretty good list of baby names, now I just hope David can find one he likes off that list. I wouldn't even mind it if he came up with an awesome one on his own. I will be updating the baby name post today with another name I thought of. Yeah, I should be narrowing down the list not adding to it. Never know maybe I will decide I really hate one of the names and delete it too.
I am trying to get the living room somewhat organized today so I better get back to that and off of this addicting computer.

I had time to think and complaining isn't good.

I've been thinking and I have come to the conclussion that I can not force David to change but I can change the way I behave and that should have some effect on David's behavior. I think I need to stop and take a moment to think about why I am upset before I start yelling at David. I realize after I have blown up at him that I had no right to do it and it's much harder to take something back then to just have not done it in the first place. I also realize I am home a lot more and I could do a greater share of the cleaning. A clean house makes everyone feel better. I think if I express how excited I am for the baby maybe that will help David to be a little more excited. I really haven't come up with a solution for the working thing. I am fine with him getting a second job I just prefer it be in the evening not over night and that way I can work my schedule around it and I will be able to continue working. The amount of time he is spending away from home with Brandon isn't really something I can change. I guess the only thing I can do is make sure and have some me time. David doesn't care if I go out with friends, so I just need to put more effort into that. I think if I had a little bit of my own life I wouldn't be so jealous of David having his own. I have also realized that this makes no sense but it is making me feel better.
Be Proactive!...

Just some complaining...

I have one month to go until my due date... I really want to be excited but I guess I am not.
David has been so distant lately. I am trying to understand why but still haven't figured it out. I know this baby wasn't expected and we were planning on waiting, but he has had 9 months to get over it and accept it. He never wants to feel the baby move and I had to drag him to the labor and delivery floor tour yesterday. At first he was all into finding a name for the baby but now that I don't have a baby name book sitting on the coffee table he doesn't want to even think about it. I think he's the only one who doesn't understand that pregnancy makes me hormonal and it causes great discomfort. I sometimes feel like I am the one who has to watch what I say around him. I think he has gotten more back rubs during this pregnancy than I have... Actually, I know he has.
Maybe it's not the pregnancy that is bothering him, but I really don't want to believe it is Jacob and me. Every chance he gets he leaves the house to go hang out with his friend, Brandon. When he does come home he sits in front of the computer and doesn't want to talk to me. I tried to make some nicer meals but he doesn't seem to care. He acts as if my working is a burden because I don't make enough money and he has to watch Jacob. The days I don't work or get done early he has to go do something without us so he can "get away". I take care of Jacob all day by myself and that is just supposed to be over looked. I agree it's nice to go out with just a friend and relax for a little bit but not 3+ days a week for hours on end. I wish he enjoyed spending that much time with me. He's been mentioning wanting to get another overnight job. I really don't want him working overnights because he will want to sleep the few hours he is home and I know that won't happen with Jacob. If David doesn't get his sleep he is very cranky. I wouldn't mind him working part time evenings and I could just work my work schedule around his. I like making my own money though and it is my time to get out of the house. I guess after reading through this I realize I am jealous of Brandon. Pretty bad when I am jealous over the time my husband is spending with his friend. Back when we were in Texas he seemed to enjoy spending time with me and Jacob, he never even wanted to hang out with the guys that much. What's changed since Texas? The only thing I can think of is that I am making less money now. I don't know I guess I am just complaining.
I shouldn't complain so much I know. He does let me pick out the movies when we go rent movies. He bought me beautiful diamond earrings for our anniversary, and all I got him was a cd. He makes more money than I do and I never feel like I am going without. He does take excellent care of Jacob when I am at work. He comes home to me every night even though I know he could be in bed with pretty much any other girl. I love him very much. I just... I want him to want to be with me as much as I want to be with him.

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.
