Baby Showers!

So I went down to Florida this past weekend where I had two baby showers thrown for me. One was for my friends and thrown by my best friend, and the second was for family thrown by my mom. They were both really amazing, and we got some really great stuff. Some of the stuff I was worried Donald wouldn't like very much, he ended up liking a lot. He helped me go through it and put it up in the babies room. I got to see family I hadn't seen since November so that was a lot of fun. I really miss being able to hang out with my cousins. We only got about 2 hours together, but a few of them said they were going to try and make the trip up to see me. So I'm excited for that! One of the ladies my mom works with made me this amazing diaper cake with all kinds of thing's hidden in it. I let Donald take it apart when I got back to Georgia since he didn't get to open up any of the other presents. I think he got a kick out of some of the stuff in it. I still haven't taken it fully apart. (do you know how long it takes to unroll 2 diaper cakes!?!?lol) One of my friends also made me a diaper cake and it turned out really cool too. She put thing's on it that had to do with the ocean and thing's "daddy might see". Which I thought was adorable! I will post pics as soon as I get them. I didn't have my camera so I'm trying to figure out who all had theirs..(I know there were a couple of people with them). But overall it was a pretty great weekend. I even got to spend some actual girl time with my 2 best friends...which never happens..every time I go down they are working. So it was nice to just be able to relax and hang out a little bit. I'm hoping to be able to go back to visit one more time before DJ is here, but I'm not sure if that is possible..I only have 8 weeks left before he is due..and I don't think I want to drive by myself the last month..Going into labor on the interstate is not in my birth plan..lol. So if I go it will have to be in the next few weeks..and as it is..my "schedule" is full for the next 2 weeks. But hey maybe some people will surprise me and come see me..(hint hint)

Well now that I have done a quick jumbled update..I am off to bed. I have a doctors appointment bright and early in the morning so I need to go to bed. It's actually been a long day..OH and I will post pics of the babyshowers ASAP!..I also have another one this weekend, and along with that my birthday is on Sunday!..22..I'm starting to feel old..lol. where did 21 go? I feel like I just turned 21 like a couple of months ago...hmm..who know's. hopefully 22 doesn't pass by as quickly though!

Goodnight...and I will try and update a little more often.

A little bit of a vent..

I'm kind of bummed right now, but I guess I should be used to changes...every time we seem to set a plan so that Donald can participate thing's get changed. I think I may just give up ever having him around to celebrate anything.

So he calls me tonight before he goes to bed (he's on duty)..and tells me that he was told they are starting shift work...so I asked when...his reply "next week". Well the baby shower's are next weekend and they were planned next weekend so he could go to the friends one and just be apart of it...but now he can't. He's not allowed to take leave during shift work...which I do understand..it's just not possible and if he were able to, it would be screwing some people pretty badly, which I'm not at all for. I'm just a little aggravated with it. And yes I know..I'm overreacting..but I just wanted him to be able to be there and be apart of it all. I should be used to schedule changes by now..It's been almost 3 years. I guess I just needed to vent a little. I know his job can't help what need's to be done, and they can't cater to every want of every person...but it's just a little aggravating sometimes I guess. Can I just blame this reaction on my hormones and be done with it?..

My name is Robyn and I'm addicted to Victoria Secret...and buying baby clothes!

I'm tired, hungry, soar, and emotional.
That about sums up the past week for me.


I don't think I've ever been so hungry or tired..
That is all it seems I've been doing lately eating something or taking a "short" nap. Oh and I can not seem to remember the simplest things..weird..is that part of pregnancy..I sure hope so.

I'm going down to Florida this weekend since we are not going to Sub-Ball..I get to pick up a bunch of stuff my mom and Grandma bought..[i'm excited!]..so next week I will get to keep myself occupied on washing baby clothes, etc...I did cheat however last week and I bought a newborn outfit...I know I said I wouldn't buy anymore baby clothes because I was getting so many as it was..but I couldn't resist..it was the cutest little outfit..and..and...and...ugh...I have no excuse for it...waiting is soooo hard! (does that count as an excuse?!?..a good one?) But..I will not buy anymore..(I mean it this time!)..unless I end up not getting enough of a certain size.(how do you measure enough?..)

I've also went a little overboard on the VS credit card..haha..c'mon..they were having a sale..bra's $15..nice one's..and I needed some new one's..But now I have cut off my spending there until I can get the card back down to where it was..It shouldn't take to long(2months), but Victoria Secret is my ADDICTION so it might be a little harder then I am thinking..I just have to stay off of their website and out of their stores...it's the sales..I tell ya...they get me every time. :)

Okay..well I am going to attempt to be productive today..but this cold weather is not helping..it's making me want to curl up in bed even more then I already want to. Maybe a trip to the bookstore is in order..get myself a new book..it's been a little while since I've bought a new one...besides it will get me out of the house..and off of the computer..
