Whats up with the name??

Once i heard 'Upside Down Pickle in a Jar' as a metaphor for a baby in a womb, and thought it was pretty fitting for our blog. This is for all the family and friends that Ben and I unfortunately dont get to speak to often. You can feel like you are here in all the action!

"Ummmmm...A BABY!"

I've heard of pregnancy brain before and didn't really think anything of it. But my goodness, I have it.
Not only do I forget what I'm doing, thinking, supposed to do. But now I'm not ccomprehending and not remembering people.

At my most recent Shaw Center appointment (doctor), the new midwife was feeling my stomach and measuring and stuff and she asked,
"So, do we know what we have in here?"
I was quiet for a few seconds then Ben said, "A baby boy"
In my head I was dying of laughter because I almost said ,
"UMMM, A BABY!"
Like what else is in there? a soccer ball? really....
So I'm not thinking straight.

Then a few nights ago we went to the grocery store, and Ben went one way and I another, and when I met up with him, he was talking to a woman. It's really not unusual for Ben, since he often sees coworkers, and classmates. He's a popular guy. lol
So I walk up and I'm just gonna walk on by and get something off the aisle and he stops me and says something like, oh here's Kim.
Am I supposed to know Kim?
I didn't recognize her from the hospital and I didn't recognize her from school, so I sort of muttered, Hey, nice to meet you...
Turns out, I know Kim. She's Ben's cousin or aunt. I cant even remember right now. She then she Leans in to give me a hug and I just wanted to smack myself 20 times. I felt like such an idiot. So Kim, if your reading this, I am so sorry. This baby is sucking my brain out!
