Pineapple anyone?

So wednesday will mark week 33 of this pregnancy of mine. Kyra will be around 4lbs and will be the equivalent of a pineapple, or so the pregnancy calender says. All is good. So far I've only gained 11lbs....so considering I'm at the 7th month mark that isn't too bad. Although if I keep on track with 1 1/2 -2lbs of gain every week, I wont be within that 15lb range that I am supposed to be shooting for. Oh well. I know I'm not eating a huge amount of food, and I am still eating plenty of fruit and veggies....although the meat department could be doing better.

Work is still a little up in the air about whether or not I'll have a job after November 21st.......I think I've decided to have the 20th be my last day so that I can have a few days off before my due date on the 25th., and with any luck I'll have a job after the baby comes :).

Things seem to be at a standstill right now. Not sure what is going to happen with everything. Sorta a wait and see game right now. I still need stuff for the bebe, but I'm waiting for the shower....whenever that will be. With 7 weeks left till my due date, I'm freaking a little about not having it yet. Mom wanted to make it a surprise. Although I'm thinking she had it scheduled for the 24th....because she got sorta weird when I told her that my lamaze class was on that day...and she said something about thinking it was on the 19th. All I know is that no one has tried to get me to go to anything with them in the near future...

I'll find out eventually that for sure.

Dogs have been driving me crazy. Just being obnoxious, causing a lot of stress. They all seemed to go through a bout of giardia... So I treated them with some panacur and they are doing much better. I found a place that sells the generic version....the chemical compound Fenbendiazole.....and after a three day treatment they are all back to their wonderful non-diarrhea state. Thats one thing I absolutely HATE about living in Portland.

I hate so many things about living in Portland. Not to mention our crazy neighbor lady. I swear if I have to tell her one more time that I'm having a girl, and due the day before thanksgiving I'm going to scream! Not to mention her dislike of us and our dogs, the scrubbing of the outside of her house with BLEACH, using scissors to cut the lawn at the border of the curb so that its even, and her pestering my husband about him being a smoker........is it really her business? argh!
