Wishful Wednesday and Bumpdates!

Time for ...


And miss darling Kelsey has a WONDERFUL wish for us ...

 'I Wish' .... I could come home to THIS bedroom each and every night!!

{Now we ALL know I can't choose just ONE.  And also, I have the most random taste ever.  I mean like I like everything.  SO, forgive the "all-over-the-placeness"}

{First, HELLO teal!  Second, I know that's shag but it looks like it would feel DEWISHOUS under my feet ... the bed could be a LITTLE more exciting, but still ...}


{I'm relaxed just LOOKING at this.}


{Getting even more relaxed ...}


{I can hear the new agey spa music playing now ...}




{LOVE all the grey.}


{I know this room's not realistic, but look at all the distressed wood on the walls.  LOVE.}


{With that view, I wouldn't care if there was a pull-out couch in this room ...} 


But lets come back to reality here people.  Have you MET my Mister?  No?  Well, think "all American, sports-playin', all boy" type of guy.  He's easily annoyed by my design antics a LITTLE leery of anything that's too "out of the ordinary" so I have to reel it in a bit.  If it were up to him our bedroom would look something like this ...




With a few of these on the wall ...




So I'm lucky to get him to agree to the POSSIBILITY of painting our walls.  He was on the fence about that for awhile.  Plus, people, I'm about (in 6 months, eek!) to have a baby.  Babies are NOT clean people.  They are messy.  So I'm not sure it's time to go out and spend thousands on a remake of one of the afore mentioned bedrooms.  OH but a girl can dream ...

Onto the BUMPDATES!

How far along?  13 weeks today!


{Again, please pardon the need to use the "V" word ...}

Total weight gain/loss:  I think I might be close to 4 1/2 lbs.  I haven't weighed in a while.  But I FEEL like ...




Maternity clothes?  YUP!  Got a few more cute things for my bday!  Some aren't even maternity but should work throughout my pregnancy.

Sleep:  Much, MUCH better.  But HOLY crazy dreams Batman!  I mean I seriously start dreaming the MINUTE I shut my eyes and don't stop til I wake up.  It's like starring in a movie ALL. NIGHT. LONG.  It's a wonder I don't wake up exhausted.

Best moment this week:  My BIRFDAY (I know, nothing to do with the pregnancy.)

Have you told family and friends:  Family, friends, waiters, cashiers, people on the street, the television, cats, dogs ...

Movement:  Only when I have to potty ...

Food cravings:  Liking any food is good enough for me these days ...

Anything making you queasy or sick:  Meat, veggies, having to eat at all.  You know, pretty much everything ...

Have you started to show yet:  Definately getting a LITTLE bump.  "My bump, my bump, my bump, my lovely lady bump."  You know you're all singing.

Leakage:  Just from my eyes and nose as the month of May has decided to bring along psychotic sneezing with the day of my birth ...

Gender prediction:  Well, remember last week when we went to our genetics testing sono?  What I DIDN'T tell you is that he was able to tell that baby Fulmer is 95% BOY!!!  And this guy has a 95% track record of getting the gender prediction correct, so I'm THRILLED to announce that baby Fulmer is 95% likely to be a little BOY!!!  We're SOOOO excited!!!  We weren't going to tell anyone but since my Mister is going around telling everyone "Well it's 95% positive we're having a son" I figured I could share it with all of you.  And I was totally RIGHT by the way, I thought I was carrying a boy the whole week before we found out!!!

Labor Signs:  Um, no.

Belly Button in or out?  Onwards and inwards.

Wedding rings on or off?  On.

Happy or Moody most of the time:  This week I've been pretty happy most of the time.  That COULD have something to do with the showering of birfday presents and wishes ... ?

Weekly Wisdom:  Don't order chinese food from a place that is close JUST because it delivers and you're too lazy to go to Pei Wei and DON'T think that Sweet & Sour Chicken is "safe" ... because you'll get a box of fried chicken parts and a bucket of sweet and sour sauce and end up dry heaving at the sight of such chicken parts and eating fried rice and eggrolls for dinner ...

Milestones:  Someone at work saying "Aww, you've got a pooch!"  Hey, when you're pregnant you're EXCITED when someone notices.  You're not, however, excited when a stranger or aquaintance decides they want to touch your belly ... seriously, it's still pretty close to my stomach.  That's a bit violating.  You might as well go ahead and touch my boob.


That's ALL for the BUMPDATES!  Have a LOVERLY Wednesday loverlies!!!

  3. Ok, I am overly OCD....and that rug in the second picture is killing me....like badly...is that in? Having those bumps in the rugs that I will trip over and crack my head open on?!?! What the heck?

    And the "v" word...like they really need to even put that in there. We allllll know about the vajayjay thanks to the lovely, Oprah!

    Hahaha, congrats (well, 95%) on having a boy!! Ha! Too funny!

    Oh, and while I'm rambling on...I love the decor/layout/design for the Mister's room....tell him he has WONDERFUL taste! He could go far with a home decor business.

  9. You are so random with those choices lol, I love it. The update too was hilarious because I've totally done that with Chinese food and it was a disaster. P.S. you should get a shirt that says Yes I'm pregnant, No You Can't Touch My Belly. My gf had it and it was hilarious because total randoms went to touch her belly.

  27. You totally are all over the place with those rooms! The last one is my fave, unrealistic and all. I couldn't pick just one either.

    I'm pretty sure I would punch a stranger in the face if they touched my belly. I don't know WHY people think that's somehow appropriate...
