I consider myself a pretty curious person, I find the weirdest things interesting. So I've decided to answer some of the off the wall questions that I often wonder....
What's the weirdest item in your purse?
Well, I just cleaned out my purse recently so I don't have much junk in there. But I guess I'd consider tampons pretty odd since I haven't seen Aunt Flow in a while and don't expect to anytime soon! One of the perks of being pregnant.
Do you have anything under your bed?
No, I can't stand having things under the bed.
Do you hide anything in your underwear drawer?
No, that's the first place someone would look if they were searching for something!
What is the very first thing you do when you wake up in the morning?
Grab the remote and turn on the news.
What is the very first thing you do when you get home from work?
Take my shoes off. We don't wear our shoes in the house so we always take them off and put them away right when we come in.
Do you collect coupons?
Yes, for items we buy all the time and for fast food. We usually don't get fast food without a coupon... buy one get one free baby :)
Do you have a junk drawer?
If it were up to me the answer would be no, but Isaac HAS to have one. Before, he had one junk drawer in almost every room and I made him consolidate his junk to just one drawer. I am the clutter patrol, I HATE clutter and junk, I think it's a small OCD thing?
Does your partner have an item in your home that you wish you could get rid of?
Yes! Well, he did and you won't believe what it was... a stick of DYNAMITE! I don't know about you but it makes me pretty uneasy to have dynamite in the house, so I told him to get it the hell out of here! Now we are a dynamite free home :)
And there you have it folks, useless information about me that you probably don't give a hoot about! So enough about me, here are some useless facts about other random stuff...
The sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog" uses every letter of the alphabet.
40% of all people who come to a party in your home snoop in your medicine cabinet.
Honey is the only food that doesn't spoil.
It's impossible to lick your own elbow.
75% of people who read the previous fact will try and lick their elbow. (YOU KNOW YOU DID! :D)
The first couple to be shown in bed together on prime time television were Fred and Wilma Flintstone.
Every time you lick a stamp, you're consuming 1/10 of a calorie

Funny sh*t my husband says
"Is it the second trimester yet, I'm horny" -I still laugh out loud when I think about that!
"Fallopian Jelly" -instead of Amniotic Fluid, I almost peed my pants!
"You're getting big in all the right places" -aaw, thanks hunny :D
"If you want hummus, lets go find you some hummus" :)

Fat Tuesday
Today is Mardi Gras or "Fat Tuesday", which is very fitting for me.
My belly is fat, my ass is fat, and my boobs are fat.... and I don't mind at all :) Who doesn't like nice round rump and a pair of jumbo boobies? I do and I know my hubby does too! Anyway, enough about my fatness. Here's how my Fatass Tuesday is going so far.
I was running late for work so I didn't have time to eat breakfast or pack one to eat at the office... bad move. I'm about to eat the next person that walks in. I think I'm gonna have to go pick something up. Plus I've had one of my pregnant headaches since I woke up, so I think I'm gonna grab a small cup of coffee too. Most times a small amount of caffeine will cure a headache these days.
Since I woke up late, I didn't have time to do anything special to my hair... actually I was lucky I remembered to run a brush through it a couple times! I pretty much looked like Medusa when I left the house, with my hair poofing out in every direction. I just put it in a bun and stuck a pen through it, there problem solved.
I was going to write some more but in the time it took to write the 2 small paragraphs above, my hunger has grown into something really serious. I'm starting to feel like I'm going to cry if I don't get some food in front of me in the next couple seconds. Sorry I couldn't finish this post but my baby needs to be fed NOW. There is no such thing as skipping a meal for a pregnant chick!

Choices, choices, choices...
While preparing for this baby to come, I've learned a LOT! I have done a ton of reading and researching. I've talked to so many moms about their birthing experiences and what they liked/disliked about it. One of the most surprising things that I've learned so far is that when it comes to the actual birthing process, you have so many options to choose from. Really? Yes, really. For example, you don't HAVE to have your baby at a hospital... sounds crazy huh! You can opt for a home delivery with the help of a midwife. Another choice is to give birth at a birthing center (which is a hospital-like facility with a home-like feel) with the help of a midwife. Or you can have your little one at a hospital, which of course is the most common. Also, you have choices as to HOW you want to give birth. Really? Yes, really! Would you feel most comfortable laying back on a hospital bed, most women do. Or does a warm birthing pool sound relaxing to help ease through contractions? Does an epidural to dull the pain sound perfect for you? Or perhaps (dare I say) a NATURAL birth sound like its right for you and your little one? This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as options go!
It makes me sad to think that a lot of women out there don't know about all of the options they have. Take a moment to read about them, ask about them, find out what is right for you and your child.
In my recent experiences with moms and women in general, I've found out that there are two types of people....
Some women are going to ask you what choices you've made or what "plan" you are going with. When you start to tell them, if your plans are different in any way from what theirs are, they will immediately take offense and sometimes even try to tell you how wrong you and your choices are. Ladies, just because my plans are different than yours, doesn't mean I am saying that you are wrong, stop being so sensitive! There is no reason to feel the need to defend your choices. We are all entitled to our own opinions. One thing may work great for me, my husband and little one, but that doesn't mean it will work for your family. I understand that, why can't you? Let me choose what makes me feel comfortable and happy and you do the same. Jeez!
Then, there are other women who hear what your plans and choices are and are genuinely happy for you. They don't judge you, even if their plans are completely opposite of yours. They know that you are comfortable and confident with the decisions you are making. These women are few and far between, but they are out there... and we need more like them!
We all need to be open minded, there is no ONE right way to do things, so don't rain on anyone's parade. Your decisions are not better than anyone elses. Listen with an open heart, you just might learn something new.

Pregnancy, it does a body good.
For the first time in my life...
I have big knockers! They're huge! Sometimes I stare at them and wonder, "Who do you guys belong to!?" I'm curious if they're gonna stick around even after the baby is here. I know most women enjoy their jumbo tatas while their pregnant and breast feeding but after that, usually the funbags start to slowly deflate and you get your old boob size back. Never before did I ever have any sort of small boob complex, I actually LOVED my boobs and was very happy with them before I got knocked up... but I have to admit, I'll miss these puppies if they decide to leave me.
