Crazy, Wonderful Life

OK, we have 102 days to go and let me tell you, I am feeling the need to do everything NOW!
"Nesting" as many people call it is an understatement in the Roach house. No one understands me, and my husband thinks I am crazy. At this point I have had no cravings, no weird things happen, but I have become very demanding. Yes, we all knew the inter Princess would come out. I feel the need to just stay at home, out of view of the public. I am so tired of people touching my belly, especially women who have already been pregnant. My belly is private not a play toy! OK, enough of complaining.

David and I had a wonderful Easter. All of our family came over for a dinner party the Saturday before and we actually got to spend time together. We decided to have everyone over since it would probable be the last time before Daniel arrives. Nashville was cold on Easter Sunday, which I was glad for because I couldn't find any cute Easter clothes.

We are finally on the home stretch with getting the nursery finished. At this point we are waiting for our furniture to be done. Once that has arrived we can finish everything. Much to every ones dismay it looks like we are going to be finished by next weekend!!

At our last doctors appointment Daniel was doing great. He is a little wiggle worm, the doctor was trying to get the heart beat and all you could hear was him moving around. I am doing fine even my weight, which I have not been happy with. At first I wasn't gaining enough now I feel like a whale. Next visit I have to take the glucose test, I pray that everything is OK with that.

Monday we started our Bradley classes. For those of you who don't know I am planning on having Daniel naturally. For those of you shaking your head thinking I am crazy, I probably am, but I will have a drug free child as a result! My life is about my child "period" and whatever I can do to ensure that he is 100% healthy that is what I plan to do. The first class was basically a get to know you class. We went over how the next 8 weeks will go and what to except. We also got to watch a child birth video, which I must say wasn't as bad as I thought. The big thing was nutrition, I have to eat lots of protein!

Well, that's it, I will write again after our next doctors appointment!
