As many of you already know (& have seen!) Anthon has a fetish with making up dances to songs that he likes, and his newest fad is to have me record these dances & post them on YouTube. This is only the 2nd time I've done it (cause it's too embarrassing to post A LOT of the dances he comes up with), but this one made me laugh! I love that he's such a goof & doesn't care what people think... it keeps me laughing!! I hope you all enjoy Anthon "Shakin' it" :)
There's not a whole lot of new or exciting things going on with us, but I had a fun/interesting day so I figured "why not write about it?" My day started out by going to a Dr. appointment-She told me (AGAIN) to gain some weight, & I had to explain (AGAIN) that I'm NOT trying to not gain weight, if that makes any sense. I've gained a whopping 3 lbs in my 5 1/2 months of pregnancy, & apparently that's not good enough... I'll just have to eat more ice cream & see if that makes her happy :). She made me happy though because she helped me recognize my baby moving! She had me turn my phone onto vibrate & press it on my belly while she called it. As soon as it started ringing I could feel the little flutters- It was really neat!! Another fun trick she taught me is to put a medal spoon on my belly & then hit the spoon with another spoon; the "Clanking" noise makes him move around too :)!
My Dr. office is right by a Home Depot so after my appointment I stopped in & picked out the paint for our little guys room... I'm pretty excited about this project so I'll be sure to post pictures once it's complete!!
Last but not least, I learned about Nematodes (parasitic worms) in school today... GLAMOROUS, I know! I was pretty much grossed out the whole time I was learning how these nasty little creatures invade HUMAN bodies, reproduce, & spread! YUCK! & if that wasn't bad enough, I had to spend an hour & a half looking at them in lab... See how DISGUSTING?!?!
Microbiology is SO NOT my field!! All I have to say is I will be washing my hands 10x more frequently than I already do & will NEVER walk bare foot out side again!!
I decided it was time to start documenting the ever-growing mass that use to be my abdomen. I'm really rather enjoying being past the "I wonder if she's pregnant or if she's just put on some weight?" phase & actually looking like I have a baby bump! Isn't pregnancy fun :)?!?
He is SO NOT the breath taking beautiful guy, with perfect features & an intoxicating smile that I'd envisioned while reading!!
And the chick they have playing Alice... I was under the impression that her character was like the most beautiful thing EVER- the actress, um not so much! Maybe I'll feel different once I see the movie, but I'm NOT convinced right now!
This is Anthon's awesome find (one of his customers was trying to get rid of it before a move)! It's only a year old, & it's like brand new- it doesn't squeak at all when you rock in it and the cushions are really fluffy & comfortable!! I looked it up on Babies'R'Us.com to see how much it cost new- $200 for the chair, $100 for the ottoman... we paid $40 for BOTH!! I didn't think I'd like a cherry finish since all the other nursery furniture is white, but this one is too pretty to refinish! I'll see if I still like the color once we have everything put together in the baby's room, if not I'll make it into what I want it :).I was able to go visit Gwen & her family in Lubbock Texas this past week (since it really was my last week of total, absolute, selfish freedom :). It was my last week of vacation for the year, school starts next week, & once this semester is over I'll have a baby)! I had a lot of fun, but being the retard I am, didn't take very many pictures. Our main project was decorating Sydney's room & the room for her new baby- Both turned out DARLING (check out Gwen's blog to see pictures)!! We went shopping one day & got some DANG good deals on baby clothes! We also indulged in the BEST frozen custard I have ever had- It's from a place called Sheridan's that we visited almost daily! It was great just to hang out & spend the days together- Thanks for having me :)!
I had a lot of fun hanging out with my little buddy, Sydney too!! We watched the GAY Wiggles A LOT (she loves Wally) & The Little Mermaid (one of my favorites growing up)! Plus, we just laughed a lot- She discovered what cross-eyes look like, courtesy of me, & was in hysterics for almost 30 minutes!! She's getting so big everyday, so it was nice just to be with her!
The trip home wasn't exactly thrilling- my flight got delayed not 1, not 2, but 4 HOURS & then there was BAD turbulence for most of the flight home. I did make some use of my time at the airport- I bought Twilight & New Moon from the ONLY gift shop in Lubbock airport (basically because they were the ONLY titles I recognized & they were on sale). All I have to say is, so far it's definitely living up to all the hype!
PS: Gwen, it took me 14 minutes to post this ;)

Anthon's company treated us to dinner at the Compass Restaurant tonight. It was a pretty fun night... More about the experience than anything! It's on top of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown Phoenix, the restaurant is 360 degrees of windows, & it rotates as you sit there so you get a total view of the valley. We were there right at sunset, so it was REALLY pretty!! It was definitely a once in a life time experience and the food was really good- We got an appetizer, salad, entree, & dessert. BUT I doubt we'll be going back with the $85 per person price tag - Thanks Preventive Pest Control for footing the bill :)!
Anthon with his shrimp appetizer!
My entree- NY steak & broccoli!I just wanted to write a little bit about my pregnancy(since I've been TERRIBLE about keeping a journal lately) . This is probably going to be one of those random posts, really for my memory than anything, so feel free to skip it if you'd like :).
Can I just say I love, Love, LOVE the widgets I added to my blog! I had a lot of fun picking & choosing through them- I just really like doing things that remind me of the baby! & since I don't know what the sex is, anything I do is gender neutral (BLAH)! I am DYING to know what we're having... it's just about driving me crazy! I'll like try & analyze in my head what it will be and then I realize that there's only 2 choices, & I can't change the outcome. I just want to know like NOW! I'm REALLY getting excited thinking about who this little person will be & what it'll look like! I wonder if it'll be a perfect mix between me & Anthon or it'll be one of those kids, who look nothing like their parents, that you think "Where did that kid come from??" ... Like Sydney :)!
I've felt pretty good lately- haven't thrown up since Mexico, so that's fun :). My only complaint would have to be toothpaste- the texture makes me GAG!! Anthon laughs at me every time I brush my teeth but I can't help it... it's disgusting! I've tried different brands but they're all the same- a necessary evil I guess. Well, that's about all that I've got for now. I have my next Dr. appointment on Aug. 4th so maybe I can do another update then... Thanks for listening :)!
