An "Off" Day

The laptop is still working so I'm happy about that. And my "blogging issues" as of late? Well, it seems our "Ad Muncher" that blocks pop-ups SO well also made my new blog not work right. So, I just turn off the filtering temporarily and can blog away happily once again. Still no clue why I couldn't log in on our desktop but whatever.

I'm having a strange day today. Well, I guess it started with feeling rather anxious last night...you know, edgy, the whole "restless legs" thing. Then today I woke up feeling a little sick: scratchy throat, mostly. Then some contractions started as usual. Then, I developed a bit of an "upset stomach" and that's all I'll say about that. I had big plans to do my usual every other week cleaning and Jason said, "I think you should take it easy. I'll do it." Awwww. But, I was feeling so icky that I told him I didn't want him to clean because I didn't know if I could keep a proper eye on Easton. So, no cleaning yet today. And it turns out Easton has been super all day and would've been just dandy playing by himself whilst I lay on the couch and Jason cleaned. Minus the cleaning that's what we all did anyway. Oh well. I'm feeling a little better already so we'll see.

Easton has been a pretty good eater again so far today. We had to switch back to his trusty ol' sippy cup yesterday afternoon. He wasn't really complaining about the cup much less pitching a fit, however, he just wasn't drinking and kept asking for water instead. I needed him to drink some milk though and as soon as he saw he usual cup he guzzled down a whole sippy full in no time. And then some more. Today he's moderating himself pretty well with the milk and actually asking for food like applesauce and yogurt (usually we have to offer).

Back to yesterday though, we got the infant carseat out. Easton saw it again today and said, "Brother seat". We also set up the Pack n Play and I stocked it with blankets and little jammies and burp cloths and all that stuff. We're pretty much set, I think. All of Easton's old stuff for newborns is washed, I have yet to wash the new stuff we bought just in case it's too small or something. I'd hate to not be able to return/exchange things. Even my mom is prepared, she's got some stuff here and the rest packed in her car. She's picked up a few activities and projects to do with Easton while Jason and I are in the hospital. Now we've just got to wait for the baby. Pretty crazy to have all this time to get prepared. Crazy to us anyway.

Yesterday Easton got a Valentine package in the mail (thanks, Maws!):

And we sat down to watch a movie...he isn't too into his Cars movie he got (yet) so we thought we'd try Nemo...I think he's a little more into Nemo but still...we've had 2 sessions of all of us watching and we still haven't finished the flick. He does like to eat popcorn with us, though. And the snuggles are always nice:

Anyway, I'm off to shower...gotta make sure to stay clean just in case labor strikes. And always wear clean underwear, right? Got it. Okay, toodles!
