Conversation

Cody and I eating dinner. I am sitting and my boobs are resting on my stomach and my stomach is also forcing me to sit with my legs spread due to the fact that it is large and in charge.

Caitlin: Ugh this is getting ridiculous. Why is this happening.
Cody: Umm..babe, its what happens when you are growing a child inside you.
Caitlin: Well why can't I sit on an egg like a bird or something.
Cody: Would you really enjoy sitting on an egg day in and day out?
Caitlin: If it would mean not tossing and turning at night, not farting every two seconds, vein filled boobs and inability to shave myself then it would honestly be a toss up.

Rando's

Well, I have a couple of things that I wanted to share, but they all have nothing to do with each other. So that's why I named this one rando, cuz its very random stuff. First off I would just like to say that I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE my new apartment. Today is one week since we have moved in and oh my gosh, I love it. It is so nice to have my own place again. Cody and I agreed that he could decorate our room, and the bathroom upstairs (which is right next to our room which is a loft). I get to decorate everything else. Our kitchen, bathroom downstairs, living room etc all look so nice and then you go upstairs and all you see is....posters. Skating posters. Beer posters. Black light posters. The bathroom...filled with posters. I have no problem with this, because we had an agreement. However, it is a tad overwhelming. I've never lived with a gentleman before, so I guess its a bit different then living with a girl/girls. The thing about Cody is that he is very anal about things, which means he is a neat freak. I like neat freaks, because then I'm a neat freak. Every single poster is perfectly straight and all of them are perfectly placed. We soon get to start decorating Axton's room and we are getting so excited for this! I absolutely HATE hanging up clothes. I have so many clothes, and they were all in garbage bags. Heck if I'm going to bend over time and time again to grab an item of clothing and then hang it up. Its called, mad heartburn, backache like heck which equals cranky Caitlin. Cody said he would hang my clothes up for me, but he's a guy. I'm not sure if there is a WRONG way to hang up clothes, but I'm sure a guy could probably manage finding one. My mom and sister came over the other night to help hang up pictures (something else I HATE doing) and help unpack the last of the stuff. I basically sat back and watched my sister organize all my stuff, and hang up all my clothing. I'm not sure if she enjoyed doing this because she actually does like unpacking, or if she just liked gandering at all my clothes she knows I can't wear so she can jack them for the time being. Regardless, she brought along chunky monkey (Luca). I was afraid that Luca would pee all over my nice tan carpet so I made him wear a diaper. Not joking. It was very entertaining.

Now, let me please note that Luca will only lay like this for Jessie, not anyone else. When I try to pick him up he wiggles in every which direction and goes nuts! I wish he would cuddle with me like he does with her :(
I think thats it. This weekend is opening hunting and Cody will be gone :( Well I'll still see him, but weekends are the only time we get to spend the day together because I work during the day Monday through Friday and he works 1st or 2nd so it always varies. His family holds a pancake feed Saturday night of opening weekend. A huge breakfast at 7 at night? Count me in!!!!!!!!!

Dear Heartburn,
I'm not joking when I say that I really dislike you. You can't just show up whenever you want, I absolutely do not approve of that. Since there is no way to get around this, I just ask that maybe you decide to sprout while I'm sleeping and I don't have to feel you.

Thank you kindly,
Caitlin & Axton

Yay!

So many exciting things are coming up in the next couple months I can't stinking wait! Let me elaborate, I'll even go in order!

Tomorrow/Friday:Cody and I FINALLY move into our new apartment!!!!!!!! For one, I very weirdly really really love unpacking. I HATE packing, but LOVE unpacking. Finding a place for everything, and getting settled in a new place is the BEST feeling! For two, I can't WAIT to get started on Axton's room! CLICK HERE to see the crib bedding and all the decorations with it that I have to make Axton's room JUST PERFECT!
Saturday: I am venturing to Waukesha for my baby shower that my best friend Amber is throwing me! It will be sooooo much fun to see all of my friends that I never get to see anymore!!!! It will probably be the last time I make the trip there for a while, at least until Axton is a couple months old. Then we'll make the trip so everyone can meet him :) The car ride will probably be a tad rough, but it will be worth it!!
Sunday: Will consist of unpacking only...which is so amazingly fun!

November 26th: Thanksgiving! I really really love food a lot, and this holiday seems to have the best of it! Turkey? Wow. Mashed Potatoes? Wow. The Gravy? My absolute FAVORITE! My Grandma Carolyn makes the BEST turkey gravey!!!!! Buns? WOW! Not only will I be loving every second of this feast, Axton will be too :)

November 27th,28th,29th: My brother TJ and his girlfriend Catherine are coming to visit! They live in South Dakota and I don't get to see them nearly enough!

November 29th: This day is my baby shower that my sister and mom are throwing me! It will be so exciting to see how much everyone already loves Axton by all the gifts and love all around! That will be so fun, but not as great as seeing everyone! I really love living at home and being close to family, but it seems like I am such a bum that I never can make time to see them :( I mean, I get EXHAUSTED trying to tie my shoes, so after work, all I want to do is relax and enjoy a good movie. Thats why I am looking forward to my shower so I can see everybody I love all at once! (Minus the gentlemen because they aren't cool enough to attend these sort of events!)

December 24th, 25th: Christmas Eve and Christmas!!! I looooove Christmas spirit! I love driving around and seeing everyone's lights on their houses and Christmas trees lit in the front windows! Stores decorated for Christmas, the whole shabang!

December 31st/January 1st: New Years! Granted, I will mostly likely fail at staying up until midnight to welcome the new year, but I am going to try really hard! This upcoming year for me is going to be MUCH different than all the rest. I will be a mother, and will strive to be a great one at that! The new year brings a new chapter in my life, and I can't wait for it to all begin!

Mid January/Beginning of Feb/Unknown date and time exactly: AXTON COMES INTO THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think of this daily, and CAN NOT WAIT! Oh my goodness, gives me goosebumps just thinking about it! Everyone is really excited to meet this little guy, but Cody and I are especially excited to meet him, and to start our little family :)

February 15th: MY BIRTHDAY!!!!! I think at this point all I will really want is some sleep, but who knows ;)

Axton in the Making

28 weeks along! Yowza! Time is sure going by fast. Sometimes not fast enough, but I have a lot to do still so I guess the time left is much needed. I loved seeing my little buddy during my 3D and 4D ultrasound session. It made me feel that much more attached to him. I love him sooo much already, and can't wait to give him kisses :) You can click on the picture to make it bigger to take a closer gander if you wish.
