Baby Stuff

Today's Cereal: the very last little bits of Cheerios, and the very last little bit of Apple Jacks. Then I dumped the Apple Jacks crumbs into my milk because it made it all sweet and apple-y.
Current Mood: Relaxed

So I am in the office today, but not to work. And I am sans Boy, hence the relaxed mood. Crazy how that is. I am here for a baby shower (Yippee! Presents!) that the gals at the office are throwing for me. As much as I complain about how weird it can be working in an office of ALL WOMEN (stinky bathrooms, hormone-induced catfights, lots of crying), there are also perks. Like baby showers and the occasional potluck lunch. If my boss were a man, you can bet your ass he wouldn't approve holding a baby shower in the conference room on company time.

In other news, I went to an appointment with my midwife on Monday. She checked me, and I am already dialated to almost a 3! This is good and bad... good, because I am already doing half the work of labor and I don't even know it. I won't have to go from 0 to 10 in the hospital; just 3 or 4 to 10. The bad news is, this baby will probably be coming a lot sooner than expected. I say probably because it's very possible that I could walk around dialated to a 3 for several weeks; however, the way I am feeling and the way the baby is positioned and is moving, all signs point to sooner than later. This is bad because #1, she's not done cooking yet. I still have 5 weeks until my due date, and she won't be considered full-term for another 2 weeks. And #2, because my bestest friend is coming in from Georgia to pamper my pregnant ass, but she won't be here until the 3rd of July (See you soon, Sweet Shawna!)

So I am now taking everyone's bets on what day you think Little Robin will be born. I'll send you something cool if you get it right on.

One more thing... I noticed yesterday when I was working in the office that the vending machine guy has put those disgusting red Zingers in our machine. You know, the ones that are all coconut-y? Seriously, who eats those? And wouldn't you know that he put the Hostess Cupcakes right behind them! This guy needs to be shot. And by the way, vending machine guy, stop putting crackers and nuts in the machine. More Skittles! How about some Starbursts? And would it kill you to come and fill it more often? By the end of the month all that is left is SweetTarts, Tootsie Rolls, and nuts. No one is taking that bait.
