he's figured out doors. as in opening and shutting. it's just a matter of time before his poor little fingers get smooshed. =( though, it was kinda cute just watching him open and close the bathroom door while Daddy was in the shower this morning. cool breeze in... cool breeze out. cool breeze in... cool breeze out.
the doors in the office are too heavy right now, but he's getting there. i half shut the conference door this afternoon and he completely bulldozed it with his walker. "nobody keeps Baby out of the conference room!".
in other news, Daddy called this morning to tell me our kid is a klingon. yes, i had to verify whether he meant super clingy or Star Trek ugly thing. one i can handle but if that kid starts leeching onto me it's a whole other story! KIDDING!!

BC: yeah! who are they?
GC: J, M, .....
BC: ...T and V?

hi ho, hi ho
i'm going back to work next week. i start back on wednesday, with baby in tow. I KNOW!! my company is totally awesome! when i told them i was looking for daycare near the office, they asked, "why not just bring him in with you"? can you say, "huh"??? i was floored. they've asked me to let them know what i need in regards to changing tables, etc. how amazingly awesome is that??? please cross your fingers for me in hopes that it all actually works out.
in other news, we're going to see all the cousins for Easter, this weekend. Monkey Boy's going to meet all his second cousins for the first time. and of course, get to see all his first cousins, too. this will be his first long trip. let's hope we can make the 2.5 hour drive without any baby catastrophes. we're planning on getting up, feeding him, then taking off. hopefully, we can make it there before his next feeding or before he completely spazzes out on us.
he really has been a great baby. spazzing is not a common thing for him. thank gawd! he's not a big cryer...yet. he's still in the cycle of eat, sleep and poop. that's about it. and i'm totally okay with it!
ah crap! i just turned off my pump and woke him up. gotta go. until next time.

in baby news: we're still baby-less. no baby yet. he ain't comin'. i have another appt on Monday.
in other news: SBW came over to snap a few pics of my pregger belly. some of them came out really nice. good silhouettes in black & white.
in rodeo news: my husband is mean. he won't take me to the cook-off to see Cowboy Mouth, even though he can get free tickets. i already missed their show on Tuesday. he doesn't understand that all the movement will probably help the baby come out! maybe he'll be a nice husband and make it up to me with crawfish.
in shower news: all showers are over and done with and thank-you's have been sent out. all except for the ones i don't have addresses for and am waiting on S1 for those!!!!! but it feels good to have the other ones mailed out already. whew!
for now, we're still in "wait" mode. i'll let 'cha know as soon as something happens.

no sleep
we're running on zero sleep these days. i'm not sleeping because the unborn child pushing down on my utero is causing me to wake up every 5 minutes! and HM's not getting any sleep cuz our mattress is so squeaky, he hears me every time i get up. that, or one of us is snoring keeping the other one up.
so here are some things that are going on:
in office news: i think it's really sweet that every morning my boss asks me how i'm feeling. and he actually waits for me to answer. like he's really interested.
in other news: my arms look like the michelin man's. all fat and rolly. ew.
in better news: the frendz shower is this weekend. Addie and Woz are coming in tonite and they're setting everything up and cooking tomorrow. Woz is making a king cake. BA is making crawfish etouffee, shrimp etouffee and crawfish pie. Addie and Frisky are decorating. well, they're following Woz's orders on how/where to decorate. i'm so excited!! it's gonna be really cool.
in baby news: the dresser came in. i'll be picking that up today. everything is falling into place. his room is coming together nicely. i wish we could get a day bed for his room, tho. cuz if i know Mamalane (and i think i do), she won't care if there's a bed or not. the woman will sleep on the floor just to be near that baby! we'll see what the budget can handle. it may be just a queen blow up for a while.
in completely totally unrelated news: my internetz frendz got their own show on MTV! set your dvr's for the College Humor Show, Sunday nite, 8:30pm Central. MTV is touting it as a reality show but i assure you, it's all scripted. the New York Times even gave it a good read! Sam Reich, director of original content, came from Vimeo. a user with a comedy troupe of three, called Dutch West. since CH and Vimeo are in the same offices, he got noticed. and now look what he's doing. how cool is that? these guys are really funny! you should check it out.

look what i can do!
so this morning, i'm on the road and the radio is talking about Peter Cetera coming into town, singing all Chicago songs.
they had a contest. they played parts of four different Chicago songs and you had to name them, in order, to get the tickets. i was caller three. bummed. call back.
dj: hello can you name the songs
me: CAN I?!?!?!?
dj: go ahead
me: shit! ooh, sorry. shoot! i'm going blank. i can't hear them now.
dj: here they are again. (but not really cuz i still couldn't hear them)
me: ACK! uh.. "Feeling something". i wanna say "Feeling That Way" but that's wrong.
dj: it's "Feeling Stronger". i'm gonna go ahead and give that one to you.
me: thanks. okay, next was "Baby, What A Big Surprise". then, "Old Days"
dj: yeah
me: then... OH! i CAN'T hear it.
dj: act surprised when i say it
me: huh?
dj: "Searchin.....
me: "SEARCHING FOR SO LONG"!! "SEARCHING FOR SO LONG"!!
dj: yeah, you got it!
other dj: that was hard.
dj: say a really loud clear thank you... NOW
me: THANK! YOU!
of course the shit got bleeped out but they were laughing at that.. and they left out the "act surprised" portion of it all, but i still got the tickets! i'm going to pick them up at lunch today.
it's Peter Cetera doing all the Chicago songs! yay! i'm so ghey.

random thots
tomorrow was supposed to be a really cool day. we were supposed to be updating the family tree on dad's side. a family member went into the hospital today so the family tree meetup will have to wait until we can get more info. now, instead of updating, i'll be doing laundry and making jewels. actually, i have a lot to do, so i shouldn't be too upset.
i have to get a lot of things done anyway. the artwalk is coming up this month and i think i want to make more bracelets and maybe try to do something with the bike chain i have. ADD go away! i need to do this!! somebody is finally interested in my stuff! i hope i do well. we'll see. if not, guess what everyone's gettin' for Christmas?!?!?

tired of being tired
okay, when am i supposed to get any energy back? i'm being told that the baby is sucking everything out of me right now and i need to get the rest i'm wanting. i am just TIRED! this does get better, right? second trimester, maybe?
yesterday, i stayed home to get our glass repaired. there were so many things i wanted to do... needed to do. what did i do? i slept. i worked my required hours and then i was OUT. i kept saying i would get up and shower at this hour. or maybe this hour. eh, i'll shower at that hour. i finally showered at 5:30, which still gave me time to get dinner on the table. and a good dinner it was! i'm such a good wife. i made pork ribs with a really good rub and pineapple glaze... YUM! HM really liked them. he usually says he likes what i cook the day of and then the next day tells me the truth. but this time, he really did like them. he told me he doesn't say anything because although he doesn't always appreciate the flavors, he always appreciates the effort. i'm not sure how to take that.
in order to get some endorphins moving, i'm attempting to walk the boys after dinner. i don't like going alone. i got HM to walk to the mailbox last nite, but that was it. i've heard walking was the best thing for an easier delivery. is that really true? cuz if it is... we seriously need to be doing some serious walking!!

woo-hoo!
S1 is coming to "do" my pantry next weekend. she's a freak about pantries. i say it all the time, but seriously, she does get all Sleeping With The Enemy on the pantry. everything is lined up, faced front, matching cans together, packet seasonings in a basket. it's downright creepy. but it's clean and neat and you can find EVERYTHING.
i am SO looking forward to this.

wouldn’t it be nice if, for every yellow light you stopped at, the DMV sent you the picture of you being a good citizen… and a coupon for $20 off your next ticket?
