Well here we are at 33 weeks, its getting so close and we're getting so excited {and I'm ready to be done being prego!} I was sick for almost the entire month of February which raised my blood pressure and put my Dr into a panic and now I'm going on my 3rd week of bed rest :( its awful, I've never sat around so much in my entire life! I know I said this already but seriously I work for the most amazing company and I'm working from home until baby's here. The most frustrating part is that I feel great and I go to the Dr every week and my blood pressure is normal as well as everything else but yet here I am on bed rest... We still have to paint the grey walls in the nursery, paint the trim white, poly the closet insert, put the crib together, find a dresser, and a bunch of the little cute details to decorate, being that I'm supposed to be laying on my couch all day and Kasey's at school full time and work part time, its proving to be a little difficult to get that done on top of the daily things we have to do, but we'll get it!
Spring is getting close and I'm so excited! Our apple tree is budding up and so is our cherry willow, now if some one wants to come and pull up the weeds from my garden and figure out a way to get rid of the snakes we'll be great! I'm more worried about the snakes then the weeds though! The main goal this year is to get sprinklers laid out back and get grass! I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am to have grass in my back yard! I also want to try and save up for a extra large kennel for Sophie or maybe just work on some how getting a fence so she can go out side all day instead of being trapped in the house covering everything in her fur! I think it would be best for both our sanity's!

Labor signs: No labor signs still just a few braxton hicks, maybe one or two a day? I haven't been keeping track.
Belly button in or out: still in for now, my old belly button ring scar is poking out though so it kind of looks like its popped out through a t-shirt.
Happy or moody most of the time: Mostly happy, just more easily irritated lol
What are you looking forward to this week: hopefully Kasey will get the nursery painted and put up the crib! I'll of course be there for moral support :)
