Third Trimester here we come!!!!

Okay so today is the first day of my third trimester!!!!
Not really sure if I should be celebrating or crying with what everyone, including all the books, are telling me to expect.... What with all the increased uncomfortableness, more peeing, more nosebleeds, etc etc...

But I am going in with a positive attitude...Yesterday and today is the first time I can feel little Sam actually moving not just punching or kicking me...It is a very odd sensation but one that I am enjoying...

We ordered a rocking chair for the nursery over the weekend... We actually purchased the floor model but they didn't have the ottoman I wanted so they are holding onto it and waiting to deliver it with the ottoman when it comes in..yeah!!! At first Dan was a little nervous about getting the floor model but since we have basically stalked (visited several times) this store for a few months we knew it had only been out there for less than 2 months..Then I made the mistake of joking and saying it is not like someone would be sitting on there in the middle of the store in their bare butt...He laughed but then was so not sure about it...I was like hello it is in the middle of a baby store silly..Finally talked him into it and it saved us $$$ to take the floor model off their hands...Can not wait to get it..It is a dark chocolate brown...With a way fun pattern on it... I can just see myself spending lots and lots of time in this chair...

We also over the past week tried to put the car seat my wonderful parents bought us as a gift into both our cars..It fit just perfect in my 4 door car but not so much in my husbands 2 door basically 2 seater sports car...So needless to say much to his chagrin we are thinking it will be time to change out cars within the next 6 months... We went test driving some SUV's this weekend. I had a thought lets discuss what are our musts before we ever get to the first dealership...My list was small 1) leather seats, as we all know how much stuff gets spilled on them with kids and much easier to wipe off then cloth and 2) automatic... My hubby loves 5 speed cars but that is the last thing I feel like I need right now...So off we go..First SUV we drive we both love..Dan was very leary at first as this was not his choice just from looking at body style but after we both drove it and checked out all the features we both agreed it would work. Then on to the next dealership to check out car #2..Well not a good sign when Dan gets in the backseat and realizes his head hits the ceiling...And not much better in the front seat either...heheh Poor salesguy really working on it but that car has been marked off our list, for obvious reasons..We have one more car to check out this coming weekend and then hopefully will be on the hunt for a good deal for whichever car we decide over the next 6 months....

So another very productive week at our house...yeah!!!
