Party at YOUR house

I'm very stressed about baby affordability. Condoms are so much cheaper than babies.... But! This baby is our blessing. You know that thing with the string and the needle...where you find out if it's a boy or a girl? Where is Aunt Joan when I need her? I hesitate to rush the pregnancy (although getting me past the next two weeks would be fine with me) but I am looking forward to finding out the sex of the baby. I accidentally bought "girl" baby stickers. I will use them anyway. I'm sure most of them can be used for both sexes. I will just have to write "Not-a-" on the stickers that say "girl." I crack myself up.

Ugh! I have a cold. Let me tell you, non-pregnant Amanda is a BABY when she gets a cold. I used to just live off Day/Nyquil. Pregnant Amanda is doing remarkably well for not being able to down the meds! Tired, emotional, and unable to breathe...but coping just fine.

Everybody take out your calendars! I am hosting a party on Thursday, March 11th. How about, 4:15pm. Yup, and it's at YOUR house! Whatever you are doing at 4:15pm on Thursday, March 11th...you should stop and do a quiet dance. Heck, what am I saying? Do a loud, celebratory dance because on that very day there will be only 200 days left until my due date. I will have been pregnant for 80 days...EIGHTY. That's pretty crazy. Maybe, on Wednesday, March 31st, we should have a 100th day party like they do in Kindergarten...
