Seriously, I can't even lean over the slightest bit to type on the computer right now or I good ole kick in the belly button. I really don't think my tummy can take much more growth! This little Hadj II is very active. He/She dislikes anything around my waste, well the part under the huge ball in my tummy. I either have to hike it up like Erkle or tear it so it's hanging like the boyz from d'hood. If only I had funky skull boxers or something. Anyway I had a little freak out moment yesterday after I typed 11 weeks left! Holy smokes!!!!!!! The mind went crazy of all the things I want to get done. Instead we're heading out for some camping. Labor Day we're camping with our God Family at Quail Creek. I love it because Jack's Music Show is Amelia's favorite and her "God Cousin" is named Jack. It's a little confusing when I say we're seeing Jack and she runs to the living room. After Labor Day weekend, Straty was able to find a place to camp in Napa!!!! I'm soooo excited. I have been envisioning Napa and couldn't imagine going anywhere else. Now that our Dog sitters are married:) We have to keep the dogs in mind when traveling. This is perfect, because we can take the dogs, go on small hikes and they don't mind the trailer while we partake in some artsie cool stuff. Plus my favorite store, NapaStyle, well the owner's store and restaurant is up there. He's Micheal on the reality show Master Chef's or something like that. Anyway, I'm excited. Today we went to Auntie Missy's new pad. Amelia was throwing back the shots in her Auntie's Vegas Themed house. She loved all the Vegas decor:) Tonight after our very own Master Chef Straty prepared another wonderful dinner, we went to the park to use our new bubble maker. We bought it last night at the downtown street fair on Main St. It was really windy, but fun! Amelia had a blast. I'll post photos tomorrow. G'nite.
I passed an EKG I took yesterday. Nothing abnormal with the heart. They did order some blood work. If things look "off" then they're going to order a manual EKG. Doc says being prego wacks your entire system up! Wow, who knew:) Anyway, I also passed my Glucose test. Prego Doc was amazed how it shot up the first hour as high as it did and then went to complete normal. He's says I'm normal, if that's really possible. I love him....he put the baby heart thing on yesterday to hear the heart beat and get the rate. It was 140 at first, then he poked the belly and we watched the heart rate go up and up! 152, 157 ....... He said that's what happens when you scare the poor baby. They live in a dark bubble and have no idea what's poking them. I laughed because I do the same at home and Straty scolds me. So, all is good. Baby is great, I'm as good as it gets and now the countdown continues. 11 weeks!!!!!! I have till end of September to go anywhere. 6 weeks prior to due date, 11/4, I have to stay within one hour of home. We're trying to plan a short Babymoon, before Baby Hadj II arrives. I'm really shooting for Napa or something of the sort, where as Straty is looking at Colorado. Colorado of course is amazing, but doc says I could be sleepy the entire time, due to altitude. Wait and see where we'll be in September! xoxox
Saturday we chilled at home. We walked to the park, picked up some Pumpkin Bread muffins!!! Fed the ducks and came home and relaxed. Straty made an incredible dinner!!!! That night Grandma and Grandpa came over to watch Ame as mommy and daddy went to see Trace Adkins and Tobby Keith. I LOVE Trace!!!!!! He's a pretty sexy dancer:) I love how my husband takes me to see my men, knowing he's the one I come home to at night! xoxox Mike Ness and now Trace. Thanks Babe, even the the traffic sucked the evening was wonderful! Love you. Speaking of LOVE, the look on my husbands face is a man who truly loves his girl. I've seen that look at time or two:) xoxoxox
Friday night we made our way to BabeTown for a fabulous BBQ from Mr. R and yummy homemade fries by the Mrs. R. It was cool to sit in the living room, eating dinner and looking around realizing our family was complete. Meaning, the girls were all married. Not complete by chitlins! Ame needs cousins:) No rush though!!!!!! That night we also placed our bets on Baby Hadj II. Hands down Boy, except for myself and Auntie Krista! We have to keep the faith:) We have to find a girl name too:) I know I've already lost! Dr. told me yesterday that I could induce day of due date if I wanted to, this being my second baby, the rules change. He's the one that told me I'd most likely be late and bet November 8th. He can't seem to make up his mind. He also informed me Baby Hadj II is weighing about 3.5 pounds and will start to increase .5 plus per week. WHAT!!! I'm 75% done, 29 weeks into prego and 11 more to go...WHAT!!!! Oh dear, it freaks me out when it's on paper! Babe, we need to get organized. Oh Amelia picked girl too!!!!
Straty found out that Panda Kung Fu movie was playing downtown Main Street. We packed up the SAAB, stopped by KFC, picked up Grandma and headed to the beach. Grandpa was there and later Auntie Sarah and Uncle Dean joined us. They even had a band playing music beforehand. Ame was all over that! How amazing it was to watch a movie at the beach! Amelia brought her Panda and had fun cuddling up with him during the movie.....
and then some! Thanks Grandma!!!!!
We started off with a lovely walk in the park. We met a lovely lady from France. After a nap and lunch we headed to Fashion Island for some fun. Daddy met us there!
