Firsts

This week I have hit an all time low in the pregnancy along with a few "Firsts." For starters, I did what I never thought I would do.....ride the scooter at Wal-Mart. Yes, I was that girl with my husband following closely and video taping the whole experience unannounced to me. My sweet, darling, and thoughtful husband put it on Facebook for all to see...n-i-c-e. I would never ride on the scooter by myself, those things are seriously dangerous. I had to back up SO many times because I was either about to plow over an elderly person or knock everything off the end caps...and as if I wasn't already drawing enough attention it beeps when you back up!

Next, I have been doing a lot of laying around watching daytime television. If you know me, you know I am high strung and rarely sit down. Laying around all day is so hard for me, especially when there is nothing on TV. I have resorted to watching "Half-Ton Teen," don't judge, it boosts my self confidence, at least I can get out of bed every day!

Harper has been having lots of play dates with friends. On Wednesday, he spent the night with my in-laws, worked around the house with the painters and Daddy, went to the park and got ice cream with Major, went to choir at church, then spend the night again with my in-laws. He had a very busy day! So this = no nap. My mother in law took him to get a haircut before church and he fell asleep in the chair!!

I have totally given in to Harper lately, I definitely believe you have to "Pick your battles." So there are a few things that have been compromised this pregnancy....such as chewing gum. The rule has always been you can chew gum when you are 5, but that is out the window thanks to a 2 hour doctor's appointment over Spring Break. I have never given him soda, but apparently he loves Sprite after a few play dates with friends. He now asks for a sip every time I have a drink in my hand. He is also obsessed with our ipad, and  has learned how to pick movies on Netflix!! There are mornings when I just don't feel like doing anything. Recently I let him watch a movie after watching a hour of his morning shows. Hopefully he won't remember all this TV time when I get my energy back in a few years.

Lastly, I stopped at Sonic today for Happy Hour and the Car Hop rubbed my belly. Really? I think it is time to have these babies.
