Mardi Gras- 33 Weeks

Today is Fat Tuesday, I just made a kick butt Jambalaya. I had a doctors appointment for my 33 week checkup and all is well. I didn't gain, my blood pressure was good, baby HB nice and strong. Overall great.

I have been feeling nauseous lately, the same thing happened with Addie towards the end so I am just going to suffer thru and hope I don't have any crazy vomitting spells that send me to the hospital again.

My house is a disaster area a bit with moving Addies room - but it not being done yet and half moving the office stuff downstairs but not yet found a place for it. I recall my life being somewhat of a disaster when Addie was first born and I assume with yet another small person entering our lives that it will only be that same type of crazy for a little while here again too. Except this time I might get my act together sooner as its not the first time. Who knows. For now this baby is getting big. All signs are healthy and I like to sit on the couch.

Lent starts tomorrow and although I am not super uber religious its crazy to think about because at the end of these 40 days baby is coming. The hospital should be calling here any day now to schedule the C-section. I also spoke with my doctor about being able to watch the surgery. Yes I know some people think I am crazy but when do you ever get to be awake during a major surgery and be able to see your baby enter the world. I am not grossed out at all by medical things so I am looking forward to it.

I am also trying out Plan To Eat, an online menu planning site. I have been menu planning for over a year now and have the paper menus to prove it but I think there has to be a better way. I would like to get it all squared away so if/when I go back to work it will just make my life easier. Plus I know what we like and I don't stray from the menu, we eat relatively clean and it will be nice to just shake up the menu from month to month. I will let you know how I like it in the coming weeks, I get a free month trial.

If you want pics check the instagram - thats the easiest way for me to do it right now. So lazy I know but my energy level is like 50%. sue me.
