ten things

ONE-
I have been forced to succumb to Palmer's Cocoa Butter. 
My husband has requested that I not be a "walking stretch mark" at the end of my pregnancy.

TWO-

My biggest pregnancy craving is corn, off the cob, with lots of butter.
I also crave ice cream (what pregnant woman doesn't), barbeque kettle potato chips, apples, carrots, peanut butter & potato chip sandwiches and cupcakes.

THREE-
My baby will be less than a year younger than my favorite athlete's first child.
But he's going to be 38 this March.
But maybe one day if we go to Monaco our child can meet his..?

FOUR-
While most people we've talked to are excited for their first Christmas with their first child, Zach and I are most excited about our first trip to Walt Disney World with baby.
We had decided not to go until we didn't have to take a stroller, but in reality, there's no way we can wait that long.
My sweet husband has even agreed to a family set of embroidered Mickey Mouse ears.

FIVE-

Remaining faithful to a former classmate and fellow Ag, I have decided that the only way I will watch American Idol beyond the auditions will be if Michael Castro makes the top 10.
He's no Jason, but it's somebody to root for.
As long as he does away with the pink hair... and he called Jason girly. Sheesh.

SIX-
I found a diaper bag I love, and it doesn't look like a diaper bag. However, if it actually is trimmed in authentic snakeskin, I will be completely put off.
I would just feel like I was throwing my dead pet over my shoulder every day. The thought of touching snakeskin (that is not still attached to a living, breathing animal) is somewhat horrifying to me.

SEVEN-
My in-laws, husband and I enjoy watching Dancing with the Stars together. If we can't watch together, my mother-in-law usually calls my husband after the show to talk about our favorites.
The next season's cast hasn't been announced but the "rumors" are dangerous.
I'd much rather see Johnny Knoxville than Steve-O. At least Johnny has a brain in his head.

EIGHT-
I really want to put my puppies in the truck, pack a picinic lunch, and take them and Zach to the beach.
I think it would be interesting to see how they react, we think Shiner would enjoy it more, but that Jethro would really like all the new smells. He's a bloodhound- it's what he does.

NINE-
My husband is not a romantic. He doesn't open car doors for me, he doesn't bring me flowers for no reason and he doesn't send me silly sentimental messages. And I don't care. Why?
2 reasons: that's not the person I love & married and because he gives me the BEST jewelry.
Like, he does such a good job, every piece of jewelry I wore to my last OB appointment, my doctor commented on. He's very, very good.

TEN-
I used to joke about getting a boob job. And I say JOKE because I don't like pain and so why would I do that to myself?
However, after having the "pregnant boobs" start, I have decided that I want my old body back, and fast.
Also, I don't want people to talk about me as "that woman who got a boob job" because that's synonymous with "that woman who has no self esteem and needed bigger boobs to make her feel better about herself."
And that's not me.
