33 weeks

Donovan's at a golf tournament his job is doing, leaving me home alone :( I did have time to try out a new recipe: Pepperoni Pinwheels. Pretty good, next time I'm adding more cheese, lol. I wanted to make a turkey recipe I found but couldn't find the turkey tenderloin at the store. I went to two different places, so I'll have to keep looking. I guess tonight we're having corn dogs.

*sigh* as the days count down, I'm even more and more ready. We put up curtains in the nursery, and I'm surprised at how much that changes the look of the room. Paint would be wonderful, but it we just haven't had the time, plus I'm not sure exactly what I want to do.

Donovan and I tell Savannah every night that we're ready for her. I want her to be healthy, but my back and sides hurt so much now and it takes a minute when I stand up to stand up straight. I might as well head straight to the bathroom since that's how I feel everytime I stand up, lol. I can't sleep for longer than 2 hours straight because my hip begins to hurt. I have the pillows all piled up but haven't figured out how to put them to keep it from hurting. Anyway, that's why we're ready..well Donovan just because he's impatient, me just because I'm tired of hurting.

I AM excited about fall being here! I have put in my air freshener Cinnamon Vanilla and it smells wonderful when I go upstairs, put out my halloween decorations and picked out some good Fall recipes to try out. I'm so glad I'm having a fall baby :)

Well, technically 6 weeks left. Maybe less! :)

The Countdown

I started this blog, mostly for people who will want updates on Savannah. Also to have a digital form of a baby book. Keeping track of her firsts, milestones and all the wonderful things I might forget to write down.

Moving forward:

So it's 32 weeks today. Well, actually 32 weeks yesterday.

The doctor said that 34 weeks is when he won't stop labor. Scary! I'm not ready yet! I don't have a carseat (thanks to Babies r' us for screwing up the shipping). However, I do have curtains, a crib, changing table and a cute little stuffed animal..essential. I have more clothes than could possibly be needed. I think I've bought about 5 outfits on my own. I got SO many cute outfits from my sister Jamie :)

Anyway, back to what I was saying. I can't believe I'm going to be a mommy so soon. I can't wait to hold her in my arms and see Donovan holding her. He's going to be such a great dad. I already know. I know our life is going to change a lot but I can't wait! I can't wait to take her to Florida and show her off to all our friends and family. Hopefully we can come down close to Thanksgiving to kill two birds with one stone.

Anyway. That's enough for a first entry right?

Going to bed...I'm supposed to sleep when I can now, so I've heard :)
