Just another rambling Monday post

I have to admit, I'm struggling a bit with what to say in today's blog.  It's Monday...I'm dragging...and I've got nothing basically.  So bear with me as I type out a rambling blog for you :-)
 
 
I'd like to thank the three special ladies who contributed guest blogs last week while I was away at work conferences:  Amber at Amberlashell.com, Jen at Sweet Pink Ruffles, and lastly, Brynn at Wicked Sweet Tea.    You guys rock, and I loved each of your guest posts!
 
 
I'm dragging this morning because my weekend was kind of short-lived.  I was at a work conference until Saturday morning, not getting home until afternoon.  We did get some relaxing in, but most of yesterday involved work...laundry, T mowing the lawn and sealing the driveway.  I wanted to help, but all I could do was sweep it off.  Baby can't be exposed to chemicals...but it did actually look like fun in a really sick kind of way. 
 
 
We managed to get our registries started for the half-pint.  I still have stuff to add, I know, but at least it's a start.  We're registered at Babies R Us and Target (of course!).  I'm anxious to start working on the nursery.  I can't wait until it's no longer just an empty room where we hang up our laundry.  But that does get me thinking...where are we going to hang up our clothes once she arrives?  Hmmm....
 
 
I promise to give all of you a baby update later this week.  We have a doctor's visit on Wednesday with another ultrasound to monitor her growth.  The unfortunate part of my heart condition is that I have less blood flow going to her, so there is a small risk she will be smaller at birth.  So the doctor is being extra cautious and monitoring how she's doing, as well as how I'm doing.  Next week we have to go to my cardiologist to check on the whole blood pressure thing.  Basically, I'm always going to the doctor, but it's a good thing, I suppose, because that means I'm being monitored and everything is going well!  But it does make it hard to make up the hours that I do miss at work. 
 
 
I should be a little more careful when walking.  We got some rain this morning, and I slipped on a wet spot outside of our building.  I almost ended up doing the splits before catching myself on the door handle.  Scared the crap out of me!  Let's not hurt yourself or the baby, Nain! 
 
 
Oh, and Mary Kay plug!  I do have a Facebook page for my Mary Kay business, so if you can, check it out and become a "fan!"  It'd make my Monday, trust me :-)
 
 
Okay, I promise to be back tomorrow with a more cohesive post.  Happy Monday, everyone!

  1. Yikes! Be extra careful! I remember when I was roughly halfway through pregnancy and I just stepped down a little too hard from a higher than normal step. It felt like my uterus jumped too and scared me. Oy.
