{1} of the THIRTY

Twenty Randoms:
1. I'm technically an only child but I have 4 siblings.
2. I really want to go to Cosmo school and be a hair/nail stylist
3. I am afraid of suffocating. Sometimes when I'm dozing off to sleep, I convince myself that I'm not breathing, completely panic, and wake myself up...over and over and I keep myself from sleeping.
4. I love that I inherited my mom's artsy-craftsy side. I love doing and I'm not too shabby at it either.
5. I hate being called dramatic. Just because dramatic things happen to me, does not make me a Drama Queen.
6. I have eaten iguana.
7. I was in Honors English in college - had no idea I was even really that good at English in HS, but now consider myself somewhat of a Grammar Nazi. Poor Grammar drives me batty.
8. I LOVE to sing karaoke. I'm a rock star.
9. I am super girly. I love shopping, spa/salon days, high heels, pink, glitter, big sunglasses...all. things. girly.
10. It embarrasses me that I have been married twice. I really dislike that about myself and it makes me feel trashy.
11. I get along better with men than I do women (despite my love of all things girly, girls are too mean)
12. I'm kind of a hot mess but I'm pretty good at hiding it [most days]
13. I'm an accountant but I'm really not that great with money. Go figure.
14. I love yoga. I'm getting pretty good at a few of the semi-advanced poses. If my wrists weren't so weak, I'd be a yoga rock star.
15. Being a mom is the greatest thing I have ever done in my life. I love my son more than anyone or anything in this world. I would do anything for him, sacrifice anything, just to make sure he's happy. I'm one of those mom's who 100% believes my child is perfect, the cutest kid alive, and could easily be super famous and super rich someday. [I don't, however believe my child can do no wrong - he's an ornery little stinker]
16. I am my own biggest critic. I am a very harsh critic but only of myself. For everyone else, I usually only see the good in people, somewhat to a fault.
17. I'm Irish [great grandmother was Irish] and I just found this out like a year ago. I'm extra upset about all the St. Patty's Day celebrating I did not do and the "Kiss My I'm Irish" t-shirts I do not own. This is a big deal to me people, I think its pretty awesome that I'm Irish.
18. I feel completely out of the loop all the time with my family (ie see above) both my mom and most definitely my dad's side [they are a MESS so I can't blame myself too much on that one], and really everything in my life. I don't know if its because I'm a total space cadet and don't pay attention, or I'm just not inquisitive enough, but I am in the dark on a lot and there's a ton of questions I have no clue the answer to. I want to make sure my kids always ask questions and are interested in who they are and what's going on around them.
19. I want to be bilingual  I always wanted to learn French but I think I'm going to learn Spanish instead since it will be so much more useful in my day to day life.
20. When I'm disappointed about something I usually don't have the heart to tell someone because I don't want to hurt their feelings.

[Im]Patiently Waiting for Baby Allen - 4 weeks to go!

I started out this pregnancy looking like this: And here I am at [almost] 36 weeks: Holy crap, I sure hope that tiny tummy comes back to me after this baby is born...and I lose a couple chins...and a couple pounds off the cheeks, both sets. I think I'll leave my hair long though. Not cute in that first picture. Anywhozit - 4 weeks to go!! Yay, I'm so excited. I had my doc appt and BPP yesterday. Baby didn't want to do his breaths at the BPP so we had to do an NST (Non-Stress Test). Basically, I sat in a big comfy recliner while they hooked the monitors up to my belly and recorded his heartbeat/movements and my contractions. I dozed off a couple times while I was sitting there listening to his heartbeat beep...it was rough. He passed the NST with flying colors - Dr even told me they could use my print out for textbooks because my results were EXACTLY what they should look like. (My child's perfect already - jealous?!) Next week is his growth scan [possibly his last one] ...

29 Weeks

Here I am at 29 weeks exactly. I'm at +24 lbs which is a little higher than I would like, but after a week of crappy eating on vacation, I won't complain too much. My blood pressure is good and just got word that I passed my glucose test. Yay! My emotions get the better of me a lot this pregnancy, but I don't know if its all pregnancy related or if some of it is just me trying to work through a lot of emotional issues - either way, trying to hold it together some days has been rough. I just wish I was able to enjoy being pregnant...but alas, its just not meant to be. Trying to enjoy it as much as possible, all the little kicks and wiggles and special time with Beckett. Also, trying very hard to stay focused on eating healthy and walking as much as I can, although, I can't walk far anymore without the belly cramping. Still trying to keep from gaining that 50 lbs like I did last time ;) Beckett is extremely active, and according to the baby center emails I get, he...

Romping In The Bluebonnets

This weekend was our weekend in Texas for J's buddy's wedding. So, J, j, Gemma and myself all loaded up, and we drove down Thursday night (overnight) to BCS to spend some time with J's family too. I, of course, have never been down to Texas in the spring, but the wildflowers are GORGEOUS, especially the bluebonnets. It just looks like they exploded all over the country side! They were everywhere. J's mom wanted us all to take some pictures in the bluebonnets so we drove out to the side of a road in the middle of wherever and took some pics. They turned out great. It was quite entertaining to get the kiddos (J's nieces were there too) to cooperate and the puppy, not to mention J's mom losing her balance to kneel down with her grandbabies . And she had to wrangle all three kids and a puppy to take J & I's pic together...God bless her. It was NOT easy. Ha! The most adorable picture of them all was of my little baby girl: How precious is this picture?...
