Week 29 Day 6 - Hooters and Hairbows

3:47pm

Picked up some paint today for our bathroom. I think my wife is planning on starting it today, or tomorrow. Not too sure. I'm stuck at work until 8pm. We got Dutch Boy Refresh paint from Menards. Supposed to be safe for pregnant people. 

My parents took us to Hooters for dinner last night. Hooters is delicious! I used to go all the time when I was younger. Their buffalo shrimp are addicting. Of course, my body doesn't quite agree with them as much anymore..... Guess I'm getting old. 

Of course it could have been the hot dogs loaded with jalepenos that I had for lunch. 

You live and you learn, right?

We stopped after Hooters, to see her aunt from out of town. I know my wife was excited because she always says that she misses her, and talks to her through Facebook. She gave us some good parenting lessons while we were there. One of the kids thought that I was Rob Dyrdek, from the MTV show "Fantasy Factory". I went along with it. Turns out he loves my show. 

I found this picture of some hair bows my wife made last year. We were making them to sell them, but I think we will be able to use them for our daughter now. 

Week 29 Day 5 - 29 Week Ultrasound Picture - Titus Basketball

11:26am



My wife left me a "to-do" list of chores this morning. It only makes sense, considering I left her one yesterday, and she went above and beyond and basically cleaned the whole house. She also reorganized, and de-cluttered the baby's room. It needed to be done badly. Now just paint, and set up the crib left to do for that room. I think we are going to paint the bathroom as well.

Anyways I already have my list finished for the day. Boom!


Are you ready for a new ultrasound picture? This one is from our regular doctor, that we seen on Tuesday. We are going to a 3d ultrasound place later today, for better pictures. I will post those too, hopefully. Probably tomorrow or the day after.

There she is!

Also a few photos that I edited. I think they are pretty cool looking!

Our baby shower invites!

If you aren't one of the millions of people who have already viewed this YouTube video of Titus, the baby basketball trick shooter, then you are missing out! Have a look and enjoy!

Week 29 Day 4 - Happy 4th Of July

11:55am 

About to start work until 9pm. Kind of stinks but hey, it's double time and a half pay. I guess it's worth it!

Happy 4th of July to everyone and be safe!

10:16pm

A picture of the fireworks last year in Panama City Beach, Florida. Too bad we can't be there this year! 

Time to relax and have a drink or two! Hey, I'm off tomorrow! My wife is so good, she is inside making burgers while I sit on the deck and watch the neighborhood fireworks. 

Week 29 Day 3 - Week 28 Bump Photos

1:38pm

Went golfing yesterday with my dad and uncles. I have only golfed a couple times in my life(usually with alcohol involved). So I'm not very good. My dad got me a set of clubs this last Christmas so I was finally able to try them out. Went to the driving range for a quick bucket of balls just to get a feel for the new set. 

I think I did pretty well. I was able to hit the ball pretty solid with the drivers and the wedges. But, I'm far from "good". 

We then went to a small 9-hole range where I did the worst of the bunch, but not by much. They all have a lot more experience than I do. I still had a a lot of fun. 

We finally took some 28-week photos yesterday. Even though we are technically a little late. People are also telling us that they have received our baby shower invites! So that's exciting. 

I have a lot more I will be putting up. Check my Facebook page for more!

Week 29 Day 2 - Ultrasound

12:56pm



Just got back from an ultrasound. My wife left work early and is already back there. Luckily I am off today and was able to go with. The coolest part that we got to see today was HAIR! She already has some hair starting to grow. That's so crazy, I think! I didn't expect to see that. But she is otherwise normal and healthy! My wife keeps telling me how much she looks like me already. She even has my big, ugly nose. Poor girl.

3d/4d ultrasounds are not included in our insurance, or at our OB/GYN office. My wife called today and set up an appointment on Friday for a special office that does them. For relatively cheap, we are going to get 15-20 pictures saved onto a flash drive in 3d. Those pictures are really cool, I highly recommend getting some taken. 28-34 weeks is the best time they told us. You can see tons of detail. So that's exciting.

My dad and stepmom are in town today so I am leaving here shortly to go get a round of golf in with them. Like I said before, I have a brand new set of clubs that I haven't even taken out of the box yet. I should probably do that instead of writing the day away!

Week 29 Day 1 - Baby Girl Clothes

3:15pm

Another day in paradise here at work. At least I'm off in a couple hours. 

Yesterday we did some grocery shopping, maybe a little too much, considering that my ice pack for my lunches is so buried in the freezer now that I wasn't able to find it this morning. At least we won't be hungry for the next couple months. Eating a nice, fresh nectarine right now. One of my favorites. 

We stopped at Target and Kohls as well. Like we always do, we ended up in all of the baby aisles. My wife and I like to look at all of the clothes. Sometimes she gets a little carried away there, but it's ok. I know how excited she is, well, how excited we BOTH are. 

We also found out today that one of my friend's girlfriend is pregnant. So that's pretty cool. We know a lot of people that are pregnant. Either we are just at that age, or there is something in the water. 

Week 28 Day 7 - Happy Sunday

12:20pm

Was up late last night putting the baby shower invitations together. Actually I fell asleep, and my wife finished them. They were actually quite a project, glad they are finished. Just have to get them in the mail. 

I worked 11 hours straight yesterday. I'm a little worn out today, but back at work. I don't pass up overtime. 

I am off work Tuesday. We have an ultrasound in the morning, which is always exciting to see! My dad will be in town also so maybe if the weather holds up we can get a round of golf in. Got a brand new set of clubs for Xmas that I haven't even taken out of the box yet. 

I thought I was finally going to be off of work this year for the 4th of July but it turns out I am working. 12-9pm actually. Pretty bad hours for that holiday but it should be pretty easy later in the day. Everyone will be out enjoying their fireworks. I'm off Friday so that's not so bad. My wife was a little upset that we can't spend the 4th together. But on the positive side, it's double time and a half pay. Nice. 

Little baby has been kicking a lot lately. It's almost scary now how hard she kicks. Especially when your not thinking about it. Like last night I was sorta laying on my wife on the couch. Next thing you know my head is being kicked off of her lap. I guess I was hogging her space!
