Well, we are officially in the second half of the pregnancy :)
I am making moves with the nursery...and by moves, I mean I bought a lampshade... big plans for this lamp shade though...lol
Saturday Ben and I ran errands and then that night we hung out with Jonny. We actually went to target so I could get a few more shirts and we started Christmas shopping.
Let me just take a moment to give a shout out to the two guys. I personally don't know of any guys who would be okay with going maternity shopping. I mean, I understand Ben going. He is actually really interested in maternity clothes, and I think it's cute. But given the opportunity to stay and hang out with his friend or taking his friend with us....I just don't get it. And Jonny... this guy's not even in this pregnancy with us, and he was totally fine with it. On the way into the store he said, "Man, a Saturday night and we're going shopping..that's when you know you are friends." Anyway, it got hot in the store and the guys got the tail end of a hormone rage in the men's department and I sent them away and found them looking at toys in the baby department when I calmed down. So my point is, Ben and I have some pretty chill people in our life. My other point is, the Bradfordville Target gets kinda stuffy.
Then, Ben and I introduced Jonny to the AMC series "The Walking Dead"
We are addicted to this show, which is weird for me, as I don't like suspense or gore. But its so good that I dream about it at least once a week. Mom records it for us on Sunday night and then we watch it on Tuesday night after Ben's done with clinicals and class for the week. We've discussed the fact that we want Finn to watch the episodes when he's older, but there's bound to be way cooler shows out by then.
One thing that I've been wanting to blog about was how frustrating it is sometimes when my hormones get going and I have alot of anger. I wouldn't call it anger, I would call it frustration. I tend to even get frustrated at myself. I've never really wanted to hit anyone in my life, but sometimes when I get frustrated, I just wanna punch someone in the face. Usually I go to my anger bank.
The anger bank is where I store things. Say, you told me something that rubbed me the wrong way..I deposit it in my anger bank. Then you do something nice, I withdraw it from the anger bank and it usually never comes back. But, if you never give me the chance to withdraw from your account at my anger bank, your account keeps growing and growing. Unlike a real bank, that's not a great thing. SOOO, when I get frustrated, I take a look in the bank and usually the person with the highest amount is my mental punching target. Even if that person wasn't what made me mad. I hope this makes sense. and I hope it also amuses you. because to me, it is kind of entertaining.
Another thing Ive been contemplating is making this blog private. I'm not exactly sure how it works, but I know there's a way to add only the emails of the people I'm ok with reading it. and If anyone I personally know, wants to be added to this list, then they just need ask. I just want to put more personal information on here and more pictures without worrying about who I don't know reading it. I'm not sure this is going to happen though.
