I just read Stacy's blog and decided to copy her too :) Amy, Currently... Current Book: I am currently trying to get into the Lost Symbol by Dan Brown (and struggling). I need a good day of solid reading to get into this book I think because one or two chapters before bed is not enough to get into it since it's a pretty deep book... Current Playlist: I am really into just tuning into the country station when I'm in the car because it soothes the baby. Don't really turn on my ipod or itunes on my ipad anymore unless I'm trying to drown people out on the bus or sounds at home. Current Colors: Loving dark grey, plums, brown, light pink right now.. Current Food/Drink: I could drink milk all day and all night right now. I can't seem to get enough!! mmm...Food--I would say anything salty--crackers, chips, certain soups..which for those who know me know that's my total opposite--I usually can't get enough sweets! lol Current Favorite Show: Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, Sons of Anarchy, Grey's Anatomy. Other shows that aren't on anymore that are still a favourite of mine: Lost, Sex and the City, One Tree Hill. Current Needs: I need more winter clothes--specifically a new jacket and some boots and new matching mitts and stuff :)..Also needing to finish our registries, get my Charger decals put on my car before the winter, winter tires/rims...and lots of other stuff regarding cleaning and prepping for the baby! lolol Current Banes of my Existence: Bad drivers, loud chewers, how out of breath I get now walking small distances! lol Current Celebrity Crush: No one currently lol..haven't been watching many shows where any of the cast is very good looking! Current #1 Blessing: Everything in life--good job/benefits, nice cars to get us around places, good doctors, healthy baby on the way, happy marriage, nice house to call our own, loving,healthy and supportive families, food on the table, money in the bank...life is good Current Indulgence: Reality tv--it's getting out of hand. I start just by randomly watching, then next thing I know it takes over my PVR! lol Teen mom, 16 and pregnant, Breaking Amish, Keeping up with the Kardashians, Mob Wives, Jerseylicious, Jersey Shore, etc, etc--such trash!!! lol Current Outfit: black wedge heels, black dress pants, black tank top with a plum purple oversized pull over open front cardigan..very comfy Current Excitement: the 27th when we go to Cornwall for our maternity pictures :) Christmas shopping, Christmas baking, baby showers and finishing getting the house ready! Current Mood: bored, comfy (I know it's not a mood but it's how I feel lol), nostalgic, happy Current Favorite Quote or Verse: "How do you live when no one is watching?" "Do onto others as you would have them do onto you" and "Life isn't measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away" Current Wishlist Item: Stand up deep freezer (it's so hard to bend over into ours with the belly in the way now :( ), Winter Tires/Rims, Winter clothes, Baby stuff Current Favorite Products: Any of my moisturizing creams/bath products! And my Calgon body exfoliant..especially getting into the dryer months!! Anyways, that was fun :) Yesterday, I decided to stay home--I had already booked off the afternoon for a medical appointment and since I was still kind of cold-y, I decided to just sleep in. Turns out, didn't get much sleeping in done but that extra hour or so of sleep really did wonders! I got up and did some stuff around the house and got ready to head out. I stopped at the post office to pick up my invites for my cornwall baby shower--pics to follow after it happens :), then went to the bank and stopped for gas (at $1.19 may I add!!) and headed into Ottawa. I went right to Thyme and bought a few sweaters and a white tshirt that I need for the maternity pics. Once I was done there, I met Tyler at a Shawarma restaurant for a quick lunch--mmm garlic right before an appointment LOL. Then we headed out to Orleans for my doctors appointment. I've gained a few pounds finally--which seems to be baby/placenta weight only apparently, which is good news for me! Then did the blood pressure, pee test, etc. We did the dopplar like usual and got a good listen to the heart (he's usually moving around too much and doesn't want us to get a good listen in lol). Then she wrote me up my paperwork for the Oral Glucose screening test :( I am NOT looking forward to this. I have heard how yucky the stuff you drink is, plus 2 blood works in one day, plus 9 hours without food...*sigh*..oh well..so I found a place at st.laurent/brittany that does the test so I will call today and book an appointment :(. Luckily, it's close to alot of restaurants so I can binge eat after LOL. Then November 15 is my actual last appointment with Grainger--I thought yesterday was but then she sprung this test at me and I said yes, so I have to meet with her for the results before Dr.McCarthy now...this part just seems like it's taking SO long...I'm too impatient for this LOL After the docs, I headed straight home and put all my shower invites in the envelopes with the return address stickers I ordered onto the envelope--now just need to bring them to the post office to weigh and get the postage. Then, I laid down to relax a bit with Ty--watched some tv and we started dinner--we cooked tacos together and he did some dishes while I chopped everything up. After dinner, I baked some soft chewy chocolate chip cookies (mmmm) to eat while we watched "Act of Valor"....what an amazing movie! One of the best I've seen in a long time. I think this is the movie they used real Marines to film and they did an incredible job..it's made our "to-buy" list! Shortly after the movie ended it was off to sleepy-land for us :) So far today's been nice and calm! (and not to jinx it, but going by fairly quickly too!). Anyways, that's it for me for now! Hope you all enjoy your Thursday! It is the eve of the last work day of the week! eeek!!
