New Questions I Wasn't Expecting
What is her name going to be? We still don't know. If had to name her tomorrow I am afraid she would be Baby Deal Hassler.
When are you due? The date has bounced around a little bit but the doc is still saying August 9th for the most part.
What are the nursery colors? The room is yellow and I haven't picked out the bedding yet. Mom and I might make it, but not sure. It will be in the yellow and leaf green family with Classic Pooh accessories. Don't want Pooh all over the place!
Is that most of them?
The new questions that I wasn't expecting are -
Have you had any weird cravings?
Are you going to go back to work?
Answer #1 - Sorry to disappoint but not really. Mike and I talked about it and early on I really liked Macaroni & Cheese but we figure that was because it is bland and Orange Juice. Now, I don't really crave much of anything, not a big huge fan of food because it all tastes so strange. BUT I can always go for cheese dip. I'll let you know if I start going for pickles and ice cream.
Answer #2 - Unless we win the lottery I will be going back to work. Don't want to but who wants to? Necessary evil these days.

The Baby - Week 25
When it Rains, it Pours (and Hails)
Oh, and one other thing, we have decided Hazel has found her voice. That dog hasn't barked as much in her lifetime (indoors) as she has over the past week. Not sure what it is all about but it isn't really helping the frazzled nerves thing . . .

The Green Room is turning Beige
I took the day off Friday and Mike and I went out to breakfast and went to the Growing Kids Sale (we didn’t buy anything, I think you probably need to go earlier in the sale). We then went to Lowe’s to pick paint chips and look at things for the green room transformation. I am going hate to see the green to go away. I really love the color in that room. All the paint chips I picked were in the very light beige family. Ick! But it should be good for resale and we might as well paint the room once, right? When are we going to have time to do that again once the baby is here? So I have to pick the color but in the meantime we are trying to empty the room. There certainly is a lot of stuff in there. I am not sure how it all is going to go back in there plus the bed and some other stuff. Ack! So we might be having a really great garage sale one of these days . . .
Doctor Day
Thursday I went to the Dentist and the Baby Doctor. The dentist went well. Nothing much they can do since I am pregnant but clean my teeth. I don’t think she like that much. She kicked a few times as to say “What are they doing to you exactly? What is that vrumm vrumm.?” I think she is going to be inquisitive. Wonder where she gets that from? Then we went to the baby doctor and had my seventh ultrasound. Mike talked to the tech about ultra sound stuff and I just watched the screen. She is still doing well and is on track. She is in the 54% for her gestational age. She is one pound four ounces and her heart rate is strong. Doc said all is well.
