I had a long day today. Yours truly thought of doing something in the computer but my mind was nowhere to find. I though of the baby clothes lying in the living room waiting to be ironed, folded and arranged for how many days. Well, let me just say it was just one day before going a week that it was being washed. Alright, I straightened them so I it's not hard to iron. I supposed not to iron it but I got a lesson learned. I should had not put the two loads of washed clothes in one dryer (blame it to the laundry area, only one dryer here in the complex, bad cheetah. Ha!) thinking I could save some quarters and time. But then, not! It doubled my work. When I had it one by one load in the dryer, ironing is no way for me because the dryer will straightened the clothes since it has a lot of space while it was spinning. All I supposed to do was then to fold it directly out from the dryer. And that's what a lesson to learn for me. But no regrets because, the damage has been done and I was running of time and quarters (to put in the dryer to function). DH even did the other two loads (four loads all which I made it into only three loads in the dryer) and was not able to come with me in the Birthing Class I had the other week (Wednesday) to attend such drying thing. Well, it was good for DH on the other hand that he was not able to come with me because he was just came from work for ten hours and was tired. And so that was it, I had it ironed overtime lately. My back hurts a bit and such but I was determined to finish it. All in all, that clothes was displayed for more than a month lying in our living room because I had it complete at the same time, it can be washed in one. There would be something coming but the important ones are already complete. The other good thing is our simple couch in the living is already free of baby clothes and my mind can already relax thinking about it already arranged and such. :-) This mommy-to-be done all that ironing, folding and arranging after 11 P.M. lately from 2 P.M. with two short naps, overtime eh?! I just had my siesta and snacks and will sleep in a minute. Whew! What a long and a bit of tiring day (thanks goodness am safe and sound) !
We love to have our own house, don't we? Okay, everybody loves to own one or even several houses. A typical person working a typical job, owning a dream house is hard to get especially in places where houses are in-demand. It is surely expensive in that area. Prospective buyer is in a journey of looking for sale or the down-priced ones hoping he/she is lucky enough to own one or in the future. And what about living in Hawaii? Is Hawaii your dream place to live one day? Or a vacation place perhaps? I bet you would like to have a house there. Good thing, it is a perfect timing now because there are many
Houses for Sale in Hawaii nowadays. Who knows you are one lucky person to own one just by browsing and checking it out which would lead to a prospective one.
As a mommy-to-be point of view, it is really great to have a house of our own (if we can afford and does not conflict to our spouse job location and alike to the sense that it is less hassle and we have steady place of stay aside from the word, it is or "own"). A newborn baby can also disturb people in the neighborhood and if we don't have a comfortable place, it is shameful to them. The point is "being comfortable" and having our "own" . :-)
Well, I guess every mommy/mommy-to-be likes to wear fabulous formal dresses, don't you think? For me, slim or plus size women does. For some other nation (well, mostly, if not most), thin ones are an "in" thing but not here in USA. Everybody is entitled for fashion. Plus size women fit-in with fabulous
plus size formal dresses and any kind of clothing and accessories. Plus size women can play with their measurements and still looks fab and amazing just like the thin ones. I love seeing plus-size women with curves! Well, such curves can be seen depending on the style of clothing/outfit women wear. So playing with their measurement is definitely great! Thanks goodness there are many plus size clothing available everywhere or even at the tip of one's mouse.
This mommy-to-be is fond of dresses. I like dresses, shoes and purses but when I have to choose only one, the very first is like most. I guess I have this fondness because when I was young, I was not fortunate enough to have fabulous dresses even with special occasions like birthday, Christmas and other occasions alike which you think a dress is just a typical new on those times. Poor me but I accept. I did not regret because that was my fate but now that I can afford to buy some, I indulge with it even sometimes. :-) Why not! :-) What about you, do you love dresses too?
I had my doctor's appointment yesterday. This mommy-to-be is not overweight anymore. Yey! Thanks goodness to my diet goal. :-) Am dieting but not under-eating, okay? If you were following my posts, I was once told by my OB-GYN/doctor a sort of overweight, well she just said "what happened to your weight? Your weight should be like this" . Alright, she did not tell me that because I was underweight or I have a normal weight, you bet! I like the way she handles her patients like me because I then watched what I ate (or eat, until now am still watching and behaving great) because I want to do the normal process of baby delivery or at least, I am following the normal way of pregnancy pattern.
Aside from my weight happiness, I was also examined the normal routine pregnancy journey of giving urine test and blood pressure monitor. And all are fine. The baby-in-my-tummy's heartbeat was normal as well, it is 150. My tummy's measurement at 34 weeks and 2 days old is 35 centimeters which also great. All-in-all are fine. Thanks God. I just have to suffer looking at the stretch marks and the legs cramp, palpitation and shortness of breath, those are normal during this period anyway.
I had no ultrasound again for that visit but that is fine as long as the baby-in-my-tummy is healthy, that is what matters to this mommy-to-be.
