Who's gonna fess up?!?

Today I got home from work to find a package sitting on my front porch, addressed to me. I racked my brain for what I bought online lately...I couldn't think of anything. I called the Hubs to see if he was expecting a package and he said no, so I went ahead and opened it. To my surprise, this is what I found:

Absolutely hilarious!!! Look familiar? How about now:

In case you can't tell, or if you haven't seen the movie Baby Mama, its a pregnant belly mug! Inside there was no note, no return info, no packing list, but was indeed addressed to me.

So please, come forward and reveal yourself, random-pregnant-mug-giving-friend :)

PS--Thank you! I love it :)

Meet Peanut's Archenemy...

Peanut haaaaates this hand dryer I have in the bathroom at work. It's one of those super high-powered dryers that is so strong it moves your skin around. The problem is it's so loud that Peanut jumps every time I use it (which is roughly 8-10 times a day) and then moves rapidly, as if s/he is trying move away or cover his/her ears...poor little Peanut!

How much longer?!

I was noticing the ticker to the right on this blog with the countdown: "you are 30 weeks, 2 days pregnant, only 68 days to go!" 68 Days?!? 68 days ago was when we had our last ultrasound. 68 days ago was early February, which was not long ago at all and in (roughly) 68 days our little Peanut will be here! Amazing how time flies!

In other news, the Hubs, Opa & Amma came over on Saturday and did a fantastic job of assembling Peanut's crib and muscling the deceivingly heavy dresser into the house. I would post some pictures of how it looks now, but I'd rather wait until the chair is in and the art is on the wall, etc, etc. So I'll just make you wait!

Not a whole lot will get accomplished this week because the Hubs and I will be going on our 'Babymoon' to Victoria on Friday! Cross your fingers for nice weather!

And on a totally unrelated note, if you are not watching Modern Family, you are majorly missing out! Here is a link with clips of my favorite TV couple. Enjoy!

Much more than I "bargained" for...a little treat for a Friday afternoon :)

This weekend, the Hubs and I are planning on visiting Satan's Dwelling Babies 'r Us to register. I've received a couple recommendations to purchase "the baby bargain book" to help us and since we have *no idea* what we are doing, I decided to take their advise and buy it. I went online to barnesandnoble.com and since I don't know the author or the book's actual name, I simply typed "baby bargains" in the search box. This is the book I was looking for:I noticed that there were many other matches for baby bargains and I thought, Cool, maybe I'll find a consumer reports book or something. Here are the other matches (note: all have different authors...):

See honey? I knew you would want this book! :)

Taco Time: A Love Story

Alright folks...consider this the official start of me losing my mind and blogging about ridiculosity. If you, by some chance in this difficult economy, have some extra dollars laying around, I suggest you buy stock in Taco Time. We have the enormous pleasure misfortune of having my favorite fast food restaurant a mere half mile away from our home. In normal, non-pregnant circumstances, I allow myself to indulge in this fresh, Mexican deliciousness maaaaaybe once a month. Now, best case scenario is once a week. What can I say, I love it sooo much! I think what I like most is their hot sauce. I start by dumping two tubs of it all over my food without thinking twice.

I've had people ask me if I've had any cravings, which I answer: "It's funny, but I really haven't." The shame of saying that I would give anything for Mexi-fries covered in hot sauce and a wee bit of sour cream, it's more than I can bare.

So, to close, yes, I realize I'm crazy and I have accepted that. Gotta go, all this typing has made me hungry ;)
