It's been a few days
It's been a few days since I've posted. Frankly, it's been a boring week. Really. I've started wearing maternity clothes. I can't even begin to explain how much more comfortable I am. I'm sure Maggie is pretty happy that her circulation isn't being cut off anymore either. This is going to sound bad, but it's so nice to finally stop sucking in! Ahhhhh..... We have another ultrasound on Monday. I'm excited for that. I get another sneek peek at my little girl. Hopefully we can get some more great shots like last time. I'm hoping for one of her doing something cute like sucking her thumb or something. But, I'll certainly post them here once I get them. We haven't really gone on a "little girl stuff" shopping spree. I don't know what we're waiting for. I've never been the kind of person to go out and spend money until I was certain that ALL my bills for that month were paid and the checks had cleared. We got paid today though and I think I may run down to Belk's (they're having a sale) and see if I can pick some cute stuff up. I'm really anxious to register though. That should be fun. There is a member of club who I just adore who is a former gynecologist. He founded (and has since retired from) the practice that I go to. He is the dearest and sweetest man I have ever met. Every time he comes in he gives me a huge hug and asks me how I'm feeling. Poor man, I have 16 different questions for him everytime he comes in. Well, today I asked him about pediatricians. At our first doctor visit they said we should look into getting one now because they come in and check the baby after it's born. I've been kinda stressing about that..I want the best, of course. He gave me a hands down recommendation (which is what I wanted) so I'm anxious to call them and get more information.

I had a wonderful weekend.
I had a wonderful weekend. I proudly showed off Maggie's first pictures to everyone at home. It was the first time I've seen my Dad since we found out I was pregnant. He kept rubbing my belly and saying, "I can't believe your having a baby." Mom took me to Target and bought me 3 pairs of pants and 3 shirts (maternity stuff) and the total bill was only $100. Target is the best. And their cute clothes too. Then I headed down to Richmond to see Tommy's family. His sister gave me a great big huge box of maternity stuff. (She's had 3 babies, 2 of which were born in Feb/March so it's all wintery clothes). THANK YOU SHELLY! I'm set. Just have to buy some un-mentionables and I'll be good. Now to just sit back and wait until Maggie gets bigger. I also went to the Pentagon this weekend with Aunt Wanda. It was so sad. When I lived there, I would drive past it so often and now to see it like that....it's sad.
