More from the preggo front!

I don't post much b/c there just isn't much to tell...but this is how it is going so far:

We're 19 weeks and two days into this fun! In 10 days we will find out for sure that it's a boy. ha!

Things have actually been pretty good lately. I have a bit more energy...I am not wanting just grease and salt and nausea is almost completely gone. I can actually cook at home now, wereas before I couldn't handle the food smell in the house. So I'm eating healthier...lots of milk!

Working out a bit here and there, which is better than nothing! Still tired frequently.

The ice storm last week scared the crap out of me. I really hate other drivers! Carrying someone else with you really changes your perspectives.

Showing a lot, in both front AND BACK. Ha. I know everything is growing to accomodate Cletus, but having a huge rear sucks!

Buying more clothes and getting excited about buying Spring clothes. They are SO much cheaper than preggo Winter wear. I'm glad this happened when it did...that way the BIG clothes I have to buy won't be so expensive. Motherhood has some ultra cute tops.

I've been reading to Cletus lately. Usually just the Bible and "You Are Special" by Max Lucado. I really want this baby to know how much God loves him and how important He thinks this baby is. If you've not read "You Are Special" you're missing out. You ARE special to your Maker.

On a side note, we're about to buy a portable DVD player. I'm so excited about this for three reasons, one of which isn't pregnancy related:
1. We can watch movies and DVD's while in the OB waiting room. She is usually behind schedule and we normally wait 2 to 3 hours. So, now it will not be so boring!
2. We'll have some in-hospital entertainment while I'm in labor (if necessary)...and after the birth. I'm sure there will be some down-time...of which I'll probably be sleeping. :)
and 3. We can watch Monster Squad! For some reason, it won't play in our normal DVD players!

Anyway....a long blog about nothing. But at least it's something, right?

Starting to think about birthing classes and registering. Getting more excited with each day. Also, starting to feel less silly about talking to my stomach. It's actually the part of the day I look most forward to.

Love to all,
Kimmer & Cletus

P.S. Just a side-note...it's funny how much this whole event has made me to become insanely introspective...I really want to know myself now: my faith, my views, myself. Because for once, I really, really have to let someone in. Billy got in by mistake. (hee hee) Now I have to open my entire self up to another being by my choice. So, I need to know myself...and love myself. Which is the hardest thing of all. KK
