Well, yesterday I finally found *the* outfit for bringing her home! It is absolutely adorable!!! It is a one-piece outfit with a white background, red ladybug pattern, and pink (!) and coral flowers on it. I know, I know, after I went on and on about how much I hate pink! But this isn’t *so* pink…of course, I did buy two other pink jumpers at the same time! Oh, well, I am blaming it on late-pregnancy psychosis, no doubt the precursor of what Craig “lovingly” refers to as MBD (maternal brain damage; I’ll let him explain more about this concept later). Did I mention the adorable matching hat and blanket?
Yesterday I was also sick for the first time in months – *not* fun! I have been on iron supplements, since I was anemic for a while, and was still low in iron last week. For some reason, the last few days the iron has been making me feel a little queasy when I take it at breakfast. But I hadn’t actually gotten sick until yesterday. I guess my tummy is just getting more fragile. I usually have a pretty small breakfast, so our hypothesis is that there isn’t enough in my stomach to absorb all the iron. I took the supplement with lunch today and it was fine.
Last night we rented the video “Coyote Ugly” – soft core porn masquerading as feminist empowerment flick. Actually, it was pretty entertaining. But it started me on an existential crisis – I’m never going to move to New York and dance on a bar! I’m about to be a MOM!!! I can’t just do whatever I want whenever I want to anymore. I’m getting old… 
This morning I went in for my now-weekly checkup. I have started effacing a *little* bit, and the baby has *started* to drop, but not much progress yet. But, the doctor says I could still go into labor at any time – first babies are pretty unpredictable I guess. She did say the baby’s head is down, which is good. I am also supposedly doing something called “nesting” – I truly have no grasp of what this is, but it seems to involve the fact that I lost a pound this week (and I had last week, too – I am now only 11 pounds over where I started!).
Okay, time for our Wednesday night shows…has anyone else been sucked in by this “Temptation Island” show? I am ashamed to say we’re hooked – we might even *tape* West Wing so we can watch Temptation Island live! And you wonder why I’m having an existential crisis…. %-)
