So it was Easter on Sunday. My grandfather went to spend Easter with my mom and siblings and since I cant travel that far this late into pregnant David and I stayed behind and had a "no family" family dinner haha. The Matsons are having some parental drama with Megs parents and Nancy had made other plans not realizing they might want to hang with her so they came with the kiddos to join us. The Johnsons also came and ate dinner with us and then left to tend to their family obligations but were back at our house within 2 hours haha. The food was good, the conversation was fun, and the games were a riot! We even endured a pretty lengthy earthquake that none of "dropped, ducked and covered" for lol. We just sat there commenting on the quake haha.We did a small "Eggy hunt" in our front yard for Makalah to do. My camera died early on so I only got a few pictures, and unfortunately they are ALL of Makalah... SORRY BROOKIE!! haha. Here is a little clump of the pictures I did get of Makalah. Clearly I should have been standing infront of her instead of behind since almost every picture is of the back of her head haha! Oh well. (Megan if you want the originals of these I can email them!! My blog is also private so people wont be able to randomly look at the pictures I post on here.)
Shortly after these pictures were taken Makalah went on a sugar binge and became a basket case haha. I have never seen her so hyper/crazy lol. All I could do was crack up. Im sure I wasnt helping the situation much but seriously? SO FUNNY! haha. We ended up strapping her into the high chair and giving her real food (Strawberries, turkey cold cuts, cucumbers, and tortilla) to try and counter the sugar high and I wish I had gotten a picture of her face lol. She was crashing HARD from the come down and look like she was about to fall face first into her plate at any given moment lol.We played the worlds longest game of PIT with everyone and then called it a night. The Matsons and David & I had work the next day so we figured it was best to call it a night and kick everyone out haha. I had a really restless night last night because I kept getting strong periodic contractions that would wake me up and then freak me out for a while lol. But overall? Im in a pretty good mood today. I am overly "emotional" in a "happy" way though today. Every cute thing makes me saw "awww" way to dramatically and any happy stories or nice gestures make me want to break out crying with "i love you man" mentality haha. Im feeling the love a little to strong today. HAHA!
On a random "Im overly emotionally pregnant today" note:
This song is so beautiful. I seriously am obsessed with it. Im sure that has a lot to do with the fact that I am pregnant and this is about pregnancy but I just love Colbie Caillat in general and this song just made me love her that much more.
From LYRICSMODE.COM lyrics archive
Like I said, I probably wouldnt be as obsessed with this song if I didnt happen to be pregnant lol but its a great song and will sound great at the "background music" to the dvd collage Im making of all my pregnancy photos and stuff to remember Adellas pregnancy by. Im excited. I also picked out a great song for the background music to the dvd collage I will be making of Adellas birth and her first few weeks. "Im a new soul" by Yael Naim.I love that song and its bubbly and will be cute to all her newborn pictures and stuff.
So I am now 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant, I have approximately 26 days to go. I am not fond of peoples remarkable rudeness when speaking about a pregnant womans body and can not wait to have the comments switch over to how cute the baby is rather then how large moms belly is lol. I am technically term on Saturday (April 10th) and will be full term on May 2nd. So that means start walking and everything that is safe and natural to get this baby out. I start my evening primrose oil inserts on Saturday (I bought them this weekend at mothers market), I start drinking my red raspberry leaf teah this weekend (I bought a new box this weekend at motehrs market too!) all which are things that will help my uterus soften and prepare. David and I will be spending a lot more "quality" time starting Saturday and hopefully I will be posting a birth announcement soon haha. Bring on the fresh pineapple, the spicy foods, the eggplant, the speedbumps...WHATEV! Granted, she wont come until she is ready... but no harm in helping if the process is ready to be helped right?? lol. Im excited to meet this little life and see what kind of person she is. I have a feel for her "in utero" attitude, Im curious as to if thats how she will be in real life too haha.
