13 weeks, I'm Slacking!!

Well, I was supposed to be on here once a week to do my journal, but I lost my password and then couldn't find the damn site. Now I have everything saved and automatic, we should be good!
Anyway, today I am 13 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I have gained a total of 6 pounds so far and my belly is 37 inches around so far, which is about5 inches more than before. SO, all in all, we're doing well. My next ultrasound is on the 15th and I am super excited! I am going to ask my gyno if and when I can get one of those 3D ones because I really really want one for this baby bean. This is our last child so I want to make sure I do things differently and try to enjoy everything as much as possible, since I didn't before with my princess Dannika.

Dannika is doing well with the baby talk. Every time she sees anything baby related she says "Is that for our baby?" while she pats my tummy. She no longer says "mommy's baby" but "our baby" so I think she will do ok once the baby gets here in june. I am hoping that I can get everything collected before the last few months so I can just work on organizing and getting everything set up for the new babys arrival.

Here's everything we still need:


bassinet and bedding to go with
crib bedding set (we have dannika old crib)
infant carseat
space saver high chair
newborn clothes
binkies
bottles
bibs and burp cloths
lotions and shampoos
gas drops and teething gels
bumbo seat
baby cradle swing
moby wrap
nursery decor
baby bath system
teether toys
moses basket
sleep positioner
monitors
crib toy and mobile
nursery organizers and storage bins
extra sheets and mattress protectors
crib mattress
tummy time mat
slumber bear
diapers
wipes
gripe water
baby gates

well, you get the idea! LOL There's still sooo much to get and we have been collecting stuff slowly but surely as we can. Hopefully I can buy some stuff used, like the swing, moses basket even room decor. But there are some things I would rather have new for the new baby like the bedding or car seat (just to be safe ya know)

I have a few boxes of stuff already, and we have Danni's old crib along with a changing table, jumparoo and a carrier. I really want to get a Moby wrap or sling though. The normal carrier killed my shoulders when I used it for dannika, but then again she was a big baby after she started growing. My little chubawubbas.

Anyway...

I've been off work for almost two weeks now thanks to a muscle strain. Round ligament pain doesn't help either with healing, that's for sure. I am trying to talk my work into finding something for me that's easier on my body but they haven't found anything for me in the last two weeks so I will prolly be replaced if they can't accommodate my weight restrictions. But I'm going to keep looking for a new job and just cross my fingers that Chris can get one soon.

well, I'mma wrap this up with a poem for my lil baby bean:

Hello, sweet little baby growing inside

I guess we're both along for the ride.

I'm excited...I'm nervous...I'm filled with joy!

I can't help but wonder if you're a girl or a boy.

It's too soon to tell, which is just as well

It doesn't matter to me whatever you'll be.

Still, I catch myself... wishing I knew

what will you wear, pink or blue?

I am ready for you, either way

I find myself dreaming what we will play.

Tea parties for a girl, Sailboats for a boy 

as soon as I know, I'll buy you a toy.  

I can't wait to tell, everyone I know

the wonderful news... should I wait 'til I show?

Soon you'll see how much I care

there's so much to do, so much to share

But first I must thank God above

for sending you, for me...to love!
