Yay! It's Friday!


Tobin fixed us dinner and then we had our normal date of going to Borders. I was craving a hot cappuccino-type drink, so I got the OK from my nurse. I took my time deciding on what I wanted to drink, asked for caffeine-free, and settled into a comfy chair to peruse the book I had picked up. Ugh, BAD IDEA! I could totally feel my heart racing and couldn't even concentrate on what I was reading, even though I was seated in a comfy chair with my legs propped up! It was a yummy cinnamon latte, so dang it! Surely she must have forgotten about the caffeine-free...

This is the book I decided on tonight. I have never actually bought a book there. I planned on reading just a few sections of different chapters, but it had so much good info! It has many awesome recipes that I can use after pregnancy, meal plans for each trimester, nutritional info, so much good stuff!! The best part is...Tobin decided to buy it for me! I needed some motivation because I know how to eat healthy, but haven't seemed to do it consistently throughout this pregnancy.

We received some disappointing news today. We had been looking forward to learning the sex of the baby on January 29th. I called the doctor today to see how many people could attend the ultrasound, and found out that they hadn't scheduled an ultrasound at all. The doctor decided that it would be a little too early and would rather schedule one closer to Valentine's Day. I knew week 17 was early, but had been told that it was possible. Miscommunication, I guess.

I plan to go to a scrapbooking sketch class tomorrow morning and then Tobin and I are going to clean house and do laundry together tomorrow. Yippee! lol However, it is so much more tolerable when done together as a team effort. Hope everyone has a wonderful and warm weekend!

  1. Trai and I have already planned a date night (as soon as Mom can come stay) to go to Cheddar's and use our gift cards from Christmas and then go to Barnes & Noble. We tried to go there with Emmarie one night...BIG MISTAKE! I never thought that I would want to go to a book store for a date night! I love that you and Tobin do! :) It's amazing what hubbies are willing to buy you when you are pregnant, huh?

  2. Bummer!! Can't believe the u/s is postponed... But also a good thing that you called since waiting till closer would have been even harder to take. Kind of cute that closer to Valentine's Day will be when you find out which sex the new "love of your life" will be!!

  4. Kodi, the date-night-at-the-book-store actually started about three years ago, but I know what you're saying. He has pretty much spoiled me and it will be hard to go back to normal!

    Mel, that is exactly how I have tried to look at it! A Valentine's Day gift!

    Cin, I'm posting on your blog also that we should do lunch today.
