nesting and more nesting...


so, this has been a week of intense nesting. on monday we bought a new car. well, new to us. ben and i are proud to introduce to the world our baby mobile, amelia. she is a 2005 jeep liberty renegade, an emerald pearl colour, which means pretty green, has four doors (yea!), and most importantly, four wheel drive. all the better to insure that i can get to the hospital, the doctors, and most importantly, the pain medication when the big day arrives. ironically enough, the day after we bought her it snowed and iced so much that we had to use four wheel drive to get out of the driveway and it hasn't let up yet. so, i guess we got her in the nick of time. tuesday we went and bought a couch. so for all of you that might be visiting us, never fear the futon is going and is being replaced with a nice couch with a hide a bed in it. ben assures me that there is no bar of death. i would have tried it out, but getting in and out of bed are my least graceful moments these days and i had no desire to make weird grunting noises in public. nemo is still doing great, as far as i can tell. nemo definently inherited ben's jungle booty and loves to press as hard as he/she can into my ribs. lots of kicking and elbowing, and squirming around. which is understandable. it's getting a little crowded. on a funny note, ben and i had no problems deciding and agreeing on amelia as the baby mobile's name. apparently it's just naming people that we have issues with. =) nemo it is.

  1. Haha. I was totally thinking about your little silver car the other day and wondering "how the hell are they going to fit a gigundo car seat in that little car?!" Congrats! Now you can officially be teased for converting to a mom-mobile like the rest of us :)

    love you- you look beautiful!
