WTF lady

I cant believe I onky have 2 weeks to go!
Now I cant say time flies because there were some times where I felt I would never make it to August. But I did finally make it, and now time is going incredibly slow!!!!

I keep being told to enjoy what little time I have left of piece and quiet. But the pain and discomfort is keeping me awake or waking me up anyways. Id much rather have her out than be dealing with the pain! Plus, I cant wait to meet her. And I cant wait to have my body back to myself.

Today is my nephew Nathans birthday =) He is 1 years old! He is going to be an amazing big cousin to Leilani. And I cant wait to see how they interact and what traits they share. We have his birthday party on Sunday so it will be fun to see everyone in my family one last time before I explode! Well, I better not explode before than. This is the one time in August Josh and I keep telling her to stay put! She likes screwing with me - bearing down and causing light contractions. But we keep telling her she is not allowed to come out til after the 12th. We want her to have her own special day...and this month is LOADED with birthdays.

Cousin Nathan - August 7th
Grandma Jane - August 11th
My Birthday - August 20th
Grandma Pat - August 24th

I went to the doctors yesterday. I love Dr Fahey, but she is kinda flighty! LoL She told me 2 weeks ago when I went in for early contractions to rest to avoid dialating. I came in yesterday and she told me she heard from Annette (the main nurse and Lauras mom) that I said I was on bedrest...but she never said that. Josh and I were like WTF lady seriously? But whatever. I am enjoying my time away from the stress filled hell hole of a job at Steak n shake. Thou it is a very tough month financially with Josh switching jobs and me not working.
She said I am not dialating yet, but they are worried about my blood pressure. It was high, and Ive been experiencing headaches - which are 2 out of 3 signs for preclampsia. However, I dont have swelling, and my test came back ok so its probably just stress. So far there are no signs of complications to come. So my plan is after this weekend to start taking walks early in the morning and than after dark once it cools down. Im going to continue to go to the pool too =) and hopefully that will move her along. I go back next week (38 weeks) and if I dont deliver by the week after we will get an ultrasound to see how big she is! But I really do hope she comes before that.

Speaking of...Josh finally left Steak n Shake =) I am so proud of him. He started work at Brunswick Bowling Alley 2 weeks ago. He works the snack bar, doing what he did at Steak n Shake in something the size of a closet- and is getting paid MORE! He was going to work both jobs for a month or so. But after walking into a hot mess for a week straight Josh couldnt take it anymore. He talked to the night managers, stayed late to speak with the GM, and told employees they couldnt leave. And in the end no one did their job. Everything was being left for him to clean on overnight, and thats not fair. He may not be as busy on overnights but he is pretty busy and all by himself; and now you expect him to clean EVERYTHING(which apparently not even a 6 person staff can do). not cool. So he left the mess for the morning shift (who normally leaves a mess for the second shift, who inturn leaves it for Josh). They always walk into a clean store and if its not clean they get Josh introuble, yet no one paid for not doing shit for Josh. I am not bothered that he left Steak n Shake - even though it has made things tough for us financially. Luckily I have some awesome friends who have really helped me out. And hopefully I wont be so stressed, and my headaches will go away too.

So thats whats been going on. its been a busy 2 weeks and yet so boring at the same time. I will write again next week =)
Until than Im going to read up on my mommy books and get as much advice as possible before the little one arrives

2 weeks to go...
