Hodgepodge

Every now and then on Jeopardy (which is pretty much one of my favorite tv shows) there's a category entitled "hodgepodge." I never really understood what that meant, (heck, I don't even know if it's one word or two) but based on the category, I'm assuming it's just a bit of everything. So, that's what this post will be: a bunch of random things (but mainly about the baby).

Nothing really new to report on the baby situation. there's still 2 weeks to go. The other day my belly turned on the stove by accident. We're starting to get serious about getting everything organized. My wonderful husband caught the "nesting bug" this weekend and willingly cleaned everything out of the crib and set up all the bedding super cute. My friend is helping me get all the clothes organized, which is a big help, and I have almost everything I need for the suitcase to the hospital.

I feel ready to have this kid. It's weird how for 6 months I feel great, and then one day I wake up and decide I'm sick of being pregnant and not being able to move around. However, no signs of labor yet. The baby can't come until next Wednesday when Glenn will be home. He's leaving for a business trip on Monday and then returning on Tuesday.

I'm so glad that I wasn't 9 months pregnant in July or August. It's been beautiful weather here (in the 70's) but I have been burning up. A comfortable temperature for me would be about 62 degrees. Poor Glenn keeps wanting to turn on the heater because he's cold, and I'm sweating. Last night I felt so bad because he was shivering in bed because I didn't want the heater on. After giving him my blanket, and he was still cold, I felt some compassion and turned it on for him. However, if I had my way we'd be sleeping with the windows open. Maybe it's a good thing that I've been so hot, since I don't have any coats that fit around my belly!
