kick kick kick

this little dude kicks a lot. i love it. But of course he stops

the moment I tell someone to feel. (especially Collin, 

though he has felt it just a few times.)

And today is the start of my 26th week! Wowie!

Oh, so people always told me before how

everyone touches your belly when you're 

pregnant and how weird it is. 

I totally imagined as much.

but thus far not many have reached for a feel, and
honestly i really like it when they do for some reason.

So if you got the urge, I'm cool with it. :)

i subscribed to fit pregnancy a while ago, and it

still hasn't come.  Hurry! I'm more than half-way done!

I am very excited to try out some Aveda samples I got.

Man, I LOVE Aveda, and I'm so glad there is one close

with some gals i really love working there. 

My hair is completely different out west and has been

so incredibly dry. I could never use the Dry Remedy 

before, but I'm about to try, wahoo.

I think i want to start nesting now. 

But i need a nest first!!!!

My mom and I stopped by Goodwill today to 

check out the baby stuff sitch. (Katie Nelson says 

"sitch" a lot (as in situation) and I love it and I'm 

copying her because I want to be cool, too.)

But Goodwill. baby stuff. CS and I decided that rather than 

spend $400-500 on a crib, dresser, changing table EACH, 

we'd like to find our baby furniture and  fix it up.  I know a 

couple of gals who are really good at that and I'm going to 

be asking for help for sure. (Cat/Ashley/who else?).

I totally am getting good ideas for babe's room. 

i picture simple, soothing colors, a few art pieces 

on the wall, a few books, small basket with just

a few toys. I do not want a room full of gadgets and

gizmos all playing different sounds and flashing lights,

if possible. 

I know what I'm doing for a mobile. I'm making it 

and I'm so excited. I have just a few things, which 

I love so much, but half of them are in a box in storage

and I just really want to put them in my babe drawer 

with the rest. 

Collin is going to be home soon! and then

I'll kiss him and hug him and lure him to the

bedroom.
