I'm typing this post as I deal with morning sickness. Yes, morning sickness. You see, I didn't know I could get morning sickness again in the third trimester. It makes sense once you think about it: as the baby grows, your stomach shrinks, making it impossible for you to have full meals anymore. It does make it possible, however, to get rid of the meals you did have like
Today, I officially hit the third trimester according to LMP. Yoda is still measuring ahead in both body and head, though my doctors are confident I will go full-term. Nothing like the thought of giving birth to a big-ass baby to comfort me. :P
Let's check to see how Mr. Yoda is doing now. According to babygaga.com:
Your not-so-tiny-anymore baby (2 pounds and 14.5 inches long!) is slowly rotating in preparation

I've been introducing Yoda to a lot of different genres. I've been on a Public Enemy and Wu-Tang Clan kick as of late, much to the chagrin to M. It's not like he doesn't like both groups, because he does. He just thinks I'm encouraging our son to Fight the Power and he's not outside the womb yet. I have been playing a lot of Michael Jackson and The

We watched this video last night to mixed reaction. For the record, we didn't have a problem with the video itself or the technique. The issue I had mainly, was seeing the newborn. So tiny! So precious! A widdle baybee!

In a few months, I'm going to have one of those. Eek! I don't know how to handle something so small! The smallest thing
I officially hit the uncomfortable sleep stage. It hurts to sleep on my sides, no matter how many times I roll over. And it takes me forever to go to sleep because somebody wants to start playing kick-ball when I'm resting. He particularly likes to punch my bladder. Ugh.boo.hiss.
In other news, I found a onesie that I just adore! I added it to my registry but I might end

I have a love-hate relationship with my in-laws. Come to think of it, I have a love-hate relationship with both families - mine and M's. There are a lot of things that occur with both families I have an issue with that no matter how much I voice my displeasure, it seems: 1) No one cares; or 2) People care but not nearly to the point where they actually

I finally chose my baby shower invite. I had it customized so I'm hoping my hosts have made their final decision because I ain't changin' this.
[caption id="attachment_287" align="aligncenter" width="300"] This is a sample invite, btw.[/caption]
I decided to combine two of my favorite things: purple and leopard print. Those who know me will tell you this invite fits my personality.
I'm a little nervous about sending out the baby shower invites.
This is a picture from last Thursday. I've been doing a lot of sleeping lately so when I feel to take a Week 25 pic, I'll submit here. Probably on Friday.
This kid is all belly. I've only gained one pound within the past two weeks. Yeah, one pound. Blame that on the fact my family history is jacked up (high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attack, stroke, cancer, just

As you may already know, we're having a boy. We nicknamed him Yoda due to the Star Wars theme we're doing for his nursery (which I quickly need to get started on). We have a list of boy names and to be honest, we really don't know which one is the winner. We had a list of names with Ethan (though I was determined to name him Jordan) and
