How irritating

So Andy's birthday is tomorrow and I still haven't gotten all the stuff I wanted. Make that MOST of the stuff I wanted to get. My plan was to do it all today, but he had the morning off. We ended up going to the mall and also had lunch out. Since we got home, I have felt just exhuasted and nauseous. Not a good combination for taking two little kids out to buy decorations, cake and presents! Plus, Dominic and Clark discovered toys I had hidden in the storage room (we rotate them in and out - it's ridiculous how many they have. And yet, I can't seem to just get rid of them). Anyway, I will have to drag them out of the house kicking and screaming. 

And you know, I just *had* to google "nausea before labor". And naturally 18 million links popped up of women on message  boards asking if this meant anything. And of course there were loads of women responding back, "Oh yeah, I felt sick one day and had my baby that night" along with loads of women with the opposite experience. 

By the way, if the baby were born today or tomorrow, I'd be taking part in quite a deFiesta family tradition - Andy was born on his mother's birthday. If the baby were born today, he'd be born on his mother's birthday and if tomorrow, then on his father's and grandmother's birthday. And Andy is also the third child! That would be quite a family fun fact! 

Okay, enough procrastinating. Time to drag the children out of the house!
